CALDERA
"Stasis" Original and Sharkey Remix
"Ah
to my delight another Hinotori record arrives on my doorstep,
and to my even bigger delight it has a Sharkey Remix included
in the package. It was taking me back to my hardcore days
already, until I realised that Sharkey had moved on to producing
hard trance records and this mix is no exception. The original
mix is a good trance tune that could even do quite well
if it was released on a commercial basis rather than on
the underground scene. It has a very catchy tune that weaves
and winds itself through the tune creating a wicked atmosphere.
The
Sharkey remix on the other hand is much, much harder. It
starts off with what sounds very much like a slowed down
distorted hardcore drum pattern. Parts of the tune soon
begin to creep in and in no time at all it has turned into
a full on hard trance monster of a record. The beat keeps
the record driving along and it would not be out of place
in a set from Dj's such as Mark Eg, M-Zone or Energy. It
also has a huge long breakdown that adds to the tune when
the drums come pounding back in.
Overall
a wicked tune that is another great release for the Hinotori
Crew."
