Today I purchased 4 new vinyls. One of which I already reviewed (Shakedown – At Night (Dubfire remix)), and three which are more solids and classics. Being: ‘Deadmau5 – Faxing Berlin‘, ‘Gregor Tresher – A Thousand Nights‘, and ‘John Dahlbäck – Pyramid‘. The new purchases will be reviewed in the near future. Plus, Adele – Hometown Glory (Axwell remixes) is in backorder for me!
Usually I’m not a big fan of the banging stuff, but this song has a progressive feel to it. I heard it first on last week’s A State of Trance. The track is called ‘Broken‘, and it’s an EP by Duderstadt, in collaboration with Store ‘n Forward on the German Afterglow Records label. I really love the remix Nitrous Oxide did on this track; even though it’s banging, it’s still rather progressive. Good quality overall, a must-have!
I’m not entirely sure who’s problem it is anyway (Freshy‘s or WordPress‘), but I fixed the error that the date is not always displayed in my posts. I had to make some minor adjustments to the ‘wp-includes/general-template.php‘ file to fix the error that the date is not always displayed on my front page. For more technical details, I suggest you read what’s below.

Going in a somewhat more trancy direction, I decided to review this new track by an artists I hadn’t heard of before. Olaf Dieckmann (better known as Wippenberg) has been active since 1995, but only released a handful of records. Recently a new EP came out called ‘Chakalaka‘, with ‘Drumster‘ on the B-side (High Contrast Recordings, Netherlands). I heard it first on Tiësto’s Club Life and A State of Trance. I really like the sound of this EP (especially the A-side), because of the progressive feel and familiar sound this record has.
This is definitely my favourite release of this month. I already fancied the original ‘At Night‘ by Shakedown, but Deep Dish‘s Dubfire made a really nice mash up with Axwell‘s ‘I Found You‘ (not on label). This combination works so well, I’m going to purchase this record, if I can find it, real soon!
