Eximinds – Revolved (Original Mix)

Russian trance team Eximinds has been surveying the scene for a few years, treating junkies of uplifting melodies to tracks like their remixes of Alexander Popov’s “When The Sun” and Aly & Fila’s “Coming Home.” This week, however, the duo reached a new milestone with their debut release on the prodigious Anjunabeats label. “Revolved” hits a little harder than your typical Anjuna track and pairs haunting stuttered vocals with a gradual build breaking into a prolonged, bassy break.

In Four Seasons compilation, Paul Oakenfold curates music for each change in season

In honor of finishing up his year long Four Seasons live tour, dance music legend Paul Oakenfold has released a four disc compilation album aptly entitled Four Seasons on Armada Music. The concept is simple but universal; he’s designed four distinct mixes for each season of the year. No matter where you are at a given time, if you’re a trance lover, Oakenfold’s got something for you.

We’ve listened through the compilation several times and picked out some favorites for you if you’d like to sample before you dive in all the way.
