Following on from his dark transformation of Super8 & Tab's classic 'Helsinki Scorchin' for '10 Years Of Anjunabeats', Dutch innovator Bart Claessen unveils a new project alongside René Martens - appropriately titled Claessen & Martens.
Drawing on both classic deep trance and an uplifting tech-fused sound, 'The Man Who Knew Too Much' is a far more subtle and intricate gem than some might expect from these two - but will appeal to all fans of quality, well-produced melodic music.
With an eerie deep trance intro that builds layer upon layer of hypnotic atmosphere into the mix, 'The Man Who Knew Too Much' turns upon a magic breakdown moment when a blissful, understated melody releases itself into the track. Again pace and subtlety are key, with Bart and René steadily building the melodies to epic crescendos.
Russian producer Vadmim Soloviev turns out a Balearic-tinged progressive makeover that maintains all the deep euphoria of the original, but wraps it around a bubbling groove.
Completing an impressively diverse package, Mark Sherry delivers a throbbing tech-trance remix with a hypnotic, funky intro and a breakdown that unleashes a gargantuan Dutch-style trance riff around the original melodies.
