This album starts with a floating, atmospheric vibe that leads us into some progressive rhythms. We also get some kind of electro vibes in this one. Track 2 starts floating too, but here we get a more stumping vibe. Somewhere between progressive and full on. Quite drifting, with some German voice samples now and then. Track 3 is among my favourite tracks on this album. This one starts nice and floating too, before we get thrown into a groovy, pumping vibe. We also get some melodies in there that gives me a very clubby feeling. Track 4 goes more full on. Groovy, rolling bass line and some quite uplifting melodies. Some of the melodies in there become a little bit too fluffy for my taste.

Track 5 keeps a pretty fast tempo too. Same direction, not exactloy full on, but not like progressive trance either. Drifting trance with some uplifting sounds swirling in and out, which should fit perfect in the morning. Track 6 goes really pumping. One of my favourite tracks on this album. Quite intense track with a very drifting vibe. Track 7 goes darker. This one is more influenced by techno, with more evil sounds etc. Something for the night. Track 8 is another pumping, massive track. Here we get some nice atmospheric vibes with crispy sounds playing above. Half way through the track, it becomes really clubby. The last track on this album doesn’t give us much rest either. Here they continues the clubby vibes with more melodies.

This album is definately much more clubby than their first album. I missed a little bit more variation between the tracks here, but you get a couple of groovy tracks that will make people stump hard this summer.
