Relaunch - Two Minds (Album)

One of my favorite prog/trance producers to come around in a while. I like the thick tones, growling basslines, and spacey atmospheres to his music.

Did anyone else pick this up or have a favorite track(s) from this album? So far I've just listened to Crack of Dawn (Trance Edit) and Datenstrom. Been meaning to get the whole thing but still hesitant.

Relaunch's remix on Jetlag was awesome too

Jetlag is cool. I need to check that album out. Here's my fav remix from Relaunch. Nice kick, good groove and great atmosphere.

i love the groove in this album! but is not too much deep or trancey

good album, for sure

One of my favourite producers - his tunes anyways work a treat in my sets. I've only bought Datenstrom and Legacy from this album though. I think I see him (like most producers) as someone I look to for DJ material rather than a full listening experience

I skimmed it on Beatport recently but I wasn't actually grabbed my many of the samples. Couldn't tell you why off the top of my head, my "Beatport alarm" just didn't sound.

btw i simply love how he start some tracks... like queen of kings

Yeah I know what you mean, and Two Minds for some reason doesn't register as an album. It feel like a collection of works instead and come to think of it I've never heard of a prog artist album(unless someone can suggest one)

Same here, I was going to buy to give him some support as I've been putting off other releases from him like 'Blue Room' and 'Art of Ambience'. I can't help but think there is some hidden gem though. I wish he would have included more mid-tempo tracks like the opening track.

Nice one. This reminds me of Stefan Anion - Orion's Belt, which I still prefer.

To this day I still haven't listened to that album, just some singles off of it like The Fall and Stealth. I guess when I said prog, I was referring to house; Two Minds is all 4x4.

Intensify is pretty housey. I mention it because it's probably the best example I've ever heard of progressive house being integrated into an album context. There are lots of great prog albums (CJ Art kindly lists a few) but the problem with prog is it's primarily DJ music and the seminal progressive home-listening releases have usually been mix compilations. Intensify is different because the tracks were clearly composed to be part of a full album, not shoe-horned together on a disc, and the boys clearly put a lot of effort into making the music rich and rewarding on the headphones.

Moshic is good. Great atmospheres, ethnic vox, deep drums.

A little late I know, but is this not a representation of modern Progressive Trance done right. The more I listen to it the more respect I think it deserves.

I know it's just Trance and it's not innovative, but it's a no nonsense track..
