Currently unreleased, I’ve heard Guy J play this out a couple of times this year, seemingly the latest in his long line of update remixes of trance classics. However, I’m sure I’ve heard that main riff before, and yet I can’t find a trace of it in any of the mixes of Dream Universe available on Spotify. Could this be a mis-label, and it’s actually a remix of some other classic? Or am I talking rubbish again? Someone please set my mind at ease.

The breakdown is 100% Dream Universe

The plucks that run throughout sound like a slowed down version of the plucks from The Man With The Red Face by Laurent Garnier imo

Not talking Rubbish at all. The main melody is Dream universe but I swear the plucks (although a little akin to the Man with the red face) are something Chicane/Disco Citizens. I can't place it but that's what my grey matter is screaming.

I just dug out the Fog Area Promo I have and that little pluck is on there

Yes, I kept thinking of Chicane as well. Something very Ibiza 1999. I can also hear the Garnier resemblance, but it's not what's tickling my memory.

It's not it, but regarding Chicane, Chicane feat. Bryan Adams - Don't Give Up came into mind. At least I think you can mix the vocals into it easily.

I like this version, it does sound like what a Chicane remix of Dream Universe would have sounded back in the day but I see no problem with it.

Jack, I think you are thinking of the pluck from the tiesto remix of Delerium "Silence". It sounds awfully like it but with more reverb

"I believe that's referred to as intelligent drum & bass, which obviously means there's a genre of stupid drum & bass out there" (John Peel)

While it does sound like a '90s Chicane-esque remix, I don't think that's a bad thing at all. Actually, I think it's awesome because you rarely hear that sound in today's trance music, and it's a sound I definitely miss.
