DJ Fire - Transatlantic

Jurgen Leyers aka DJ Fire will release a new track soon on the Progrez label. DJ Fire, half of the legendary Fire & Ice project still remains a pretty underground artist with a long range of classic tracks under his belt. His tracks Himalaya, Religion and Ulan Bator still remain firm favourites in my playlist.
The past years he has changed from deeper to a little more danceable and melodic sound with a snif of electrance. The new release Transatlantic is out very soon with a remix by none other than Antidote.

Original Mix
Transatlantic is a very enjoyable mixture of progressive melodic trance with a sniff of electrance. The BPM is high enough to get your crowd dancing and the melody is a simple yet effective piece of work. During the first breakdown we get teased a little with an euphoric hands in the air moment, but it will take to the second breakdown before the melody gets a spotlight part in the track. It's alltogether nice, but not groundbreaking or memorable.

Antidote Remix
One of my favourite aliases from Marnix and L-Vee, Antidote always seem to deliver. Their earlier releases were full of dark and melodic stuff. However lately they have changed to a more accessible, but still raw sound. The remix of Transatlantic is a pretty banging and dirty rework with crazy electrobits transforming the original, gentle melody into a raw banger. More danceable but a tad boring in the end.

Conclusion
A pretty average from one of my favourite artists, DJ Fire. The Original nor the Antidote Remix made me extremely happy. I wish that DJ Fire would keep focusing on deeper and exciting melodic tracks with a darker Antidote Remix. It's good to evolve the sound, but this is a bit from everything and sadly scores average at the end.
