ALLEY016 MAKOTRAX // incl. Paul Thomas remix
View this Thread in Original format

Japanese artist Makotrax has proven to be one of the most versatile talents in EDM, with

releases ranging from techno to trance in recent months on various top-tier imprints

(Flashover, microCastle). Last seen on Mango Alley on remix duty of Schodt's beloved

"Bloc 9," Makotrax returns with the masterful "Hagoromo," a powerfully emotional

progressive ride, as free-flowing and beautiful as the waterfall for which it is named.

There is a brilliant patience to the development of this one, as the main chords subtly

crescendo in the the track and ultimately come to a climax in the main break. On remix

detail, MA has enlisted international heavyweight Paul Thomas [Toolroom, Baroque], a

globe-trotting DJ who has performed on six continents in recent years. Paul Thomas once

again brings his dancefloor sensibility to the production arena: his mix offers a

techier build, though, it becomes clear quite early that an anthemic break is lurking.

Sure enough, the original melody pours out in the main break, offering a spine-tingling,

hands-in-the-air few moments and overall release highlight.
