I'm sure almost everyone on TA has heard of Jonas Steur, considering he was on the TA float that failed to make it to Loveparade 2006, and that two of his tracks were on the TOTY 2005. Coupled with Tiesto caning him about, I think it's a safe bet that he's not a "discovery". Nonetheless, check out stuff under his other aliases like Estuera, Fable, Propylon, and tracks like Red Shores, Nightshift, Second Turn, Tales From The South, and Silent Waves.

He's very good at making no-bullshit melodic trance.

He's using only VST? Or did you mean that as "a genre"?
His tracks sound very smooth and they're well produced. Sounds like he's using Access Virus. One of the best new generation trance producers, IMO.

For me he is good ... he don't produced tracks with vocals ... at least I don't remember anyone ... his best tracks for me

Estuera vs Relocate - Palma Solane ...for me is your best production
Fable - Above ... I really like this track
Estuera - Tales Form The South (Jonas Steur's Revision Flow) ... this version surprise me ... really cool

Summer Sessions - Blossom (Haylon Remix)
Probspot - Foreplay
Probspot - Blueberry
Probspot - 1997
Super8 - Cre8 (Mirco De Govia Remix)
Menno De Jong - Guanxi (Super8 Remix)
Tiesto - Nyana


Course there's many summer tracks ... I only have summer tracks ... but this I think is more closer Jonas Steur style ... maybe I forgot something

He is a talented musician too, and I have heard he uses hardware as well, not just VSTs. His family is quite musical, and he has said he's inspired by classical music, and you can tell because his music is very melodic, at times symphonic and quite good. I actually think his music is getting better, because some of the early stuff he produced under "Estuera" sounded a little dated and overly simplistic, I don't want to say amateurish but certainly his newer stuff seems more sophisticated, esp "Silent Waves", "Able", "Nightshift" and his reinterpretation of "Tales From The South" on Tiesto ISOS 5....so I defintely think this is a guy with a lot of potentional, and I think he might be up there with Micro de Govia IMO as someone who produces really good melodic trance still...

They aren't bad, but I say the remixes of their tracks are better IMO, esp the Ferry Corsten and Greg Murray mixes of "Sweetest Dreams"...
