Orkidea - Metaverse Album (Update + Remixer News)
Metaverse a Smash Hit!
In its first week on Beatport, Orkidea's Metaverse album has dominated the trance charts racking up a staggering 5 tracks in the Top 100 with 'God's Garden' smashing into the Top 10. The album has also cracked the top Finnish National Album Top 20, moved into the Juno Records Top 25, and even found its way onto the Billboard Top 100!
With consistent support from Armin van Buuren, Markus Schulz, Above & Beyond, Gareth Emery, Andy Moor, Menno de Jong, and Paul Oakenfold just to name a few, it's safe to say that Metaverse has cemented its place as one of 2008's essential artist albums.
3 Remix EP's On the Way!
With the success of Orkidea's artist album, AVA Recordings is releasing 3 remix EP albums to showcase some of the finer tracks in the album.
First up we are excited to present the title track off the album, Metaverse with a massive remix from none other than Gareth Emery. Fresh off the success of 'Formentera What', we were ecstatic to snap up Gareth and he's delivered an incredible mix, perfect for a summer release.
Metaverse, complete with Gareth Emery's remix is set for full release on May 19th, 2008.
Next up is again the title track off the album, Metaverse this time with the fantastic Jody Wisternoff taking care of remix duties. Jody, from Way Out West fame brings us a brilliant summer terrace style mix.
Look for Jody's remix to be out in early June 2008.
The third EP will be a selection of remixes handpicked by Orkidea himself. With a digital and vinyl release, this EP will showcase a full array of tracks from the entire album.
Expect a release of this EP to launch near the end of June 2008.
this is gonna be great 
love the gareth mix and looking forward to jody's take.
Very good album, bought it at the weekend. Chunky rhythmic basslines throughout, great key changes and lots of layered chords and melodies.
Only slight disappointment was the solarstone collab', didn't deliver really.
Masochrist is simply mind-blowing. And his remix of Nightwish - Bye Bye Beautiful is awesome. Generally speaking, Orkidea knows how to mess with your head with all those effects that he's using. Great producer 
I wouldnt hold much hope for the first two releases given what those producers have been doing, but I'd be interested in seeing Orkideas own hand-picked versions.

i'm not expecting much from these. i didn't think much of the album either. somehow it felt a bit lacking IMO. some good tunes, most just ok and that david west collab was just plain crap
Album was superb, should be interesting to hear the remixes.

| Originally posted by Ian I think that collab is ok, it's just a bit different from what we probably expected it to be like. |
