Up next on Future State Records is one of our most exciting releases to date. From Dutch producer Avalon 62, aka Aerium, Leander Rispens has weaved a stunning journey through trance in it’s purest form. This 10 track album has everything you want from contemporary trance; elegant and uplifting melodies, slick driving beats and silky production.

We kick off the album with Intro, Soundeffects, a chilled out intro that sets the scene, before jumping straight into an uplifting trance track, Sol, with compelling melodies and a solid bassline that drives the track energetically.

Fantasia Landscapes is one of the highlights of the album, great production and beautifully uplifting, this track is utterly compelling. Next up is Mar, another lovely trance track which subtly binds together many layers of melody to create a soundscape that is underpinned by another solid beat and bassline.

For Those Who Cared brings back memories of earlier trance with its lush saws and long evolving chords, without a doubt another highlight of the album.

Through Shards of Open Fields slows the pace down a bit into a chilled out, trance influenced ambient track, once again using multiple layers of melody and a well constructed beat to great effect.

A remix of British producer Macker’s track Eternity, this is a lovely chilled out trance track that evolves over the top of subtle arpeggios and crisp percussion, with a beautiful breakdown in the middle to tie the track together.

Cloudrunner brings the pace of the album back up, a tech trance influenced monster, this is another high point in the album, solid beats and a deep pulsing bassline are sure to rock dance floors.

Carrying on into the more driving side of trance is High on Wind, High on Waves, another energy packed tech trance influenced track, this one with an excellent vocodered vocal  that gives the track a unique touch.

Finally the album winds down with another ambient track, Outro Music, that ends the album perfectly. Overall a well thought out, superbly constructed album that weaves through all of the best elements that trance has to offer, always exciting and great either as a whole album, or as individual tracks played out on the dance floor.
