This is probably one of the most anticipated Enhanced tunes this year. The Alex M.O.R.P.H. & Woody van Eyden remix has already had quite a few plays on the Enhanced Recordings Radio Show and even though it has only been a week since the promotion started some of the big jocks have already picked it up. This is 1 out of 3 vocal projects that Will Holland has done, and the tunes to follow are named "Arctic Kiss" and "Things That Happen. Will Holland teamed up with an experienced Russian singer by the name Yana Kay. Let's have a look at it.

Alex M.O.R.P.H. b2b Woody van Eyden Remix
Starting out with a really heavy kick and building its way up to some beautiful and lush melodies. The breakdown is my favourite part where Yana Kay sings "If you see me walking down the street all I do is smile" - "but don't look in my eyes" - "cause you see what I hide". Breathtaking remix they worked out here and by far one of the most well done remixes I have heard this year. In fact the best I've heard from this duo in 2008.

Monogato Remix
As expected a very deep remix from Peter Smit aka. Monogato. Has a really warming sound to it but I would have preferred it with less use of the vocals. His style and Yana's vocal just aren't in perfect harmony.

After Meridian Remix
Slightly dark progressive trance remix from After Meridian. This remix stands out with the dreamy arpeggio used in the breakdown. Appart from the break the production isn't that inspiring and I can recognize quite a few elements from other big tracks.

Electricano Remix
This remix is a bit more on the house side of things. Electricano is unknown to me but I certainly won't forget about him know. He pushes the vocal forward in this production support it with some minimal and housy sounds. It actually sounds like a production that could really become commercially succesful.

Original Mix
I would say that the style of this track could be described as a "laidback uplifter". Sounds weird doesn't it? Will didn't "rush" anything in this production but took his time to build up the tune. Makes use of a stutter effect that weren't used in any of the other mixes. Loving the piano which makes the production a bit more sophisticated.

Mix 1, 4 and 5 are really fantastic. What really makes a difference on this record is Yana's beautiful vocals. Hoping to hear more from her soon. This release has something for everyone and also has the Enhanced Quality Seal stamp.

Releasedate: 08.12.2008

Record Label: Enhanced Recordings
Format: Vinyl, CD, MP3/WAV

It's been a while since we've seen a release from head of Enhanced Recordings Will Holland. This time he teamed up with Latvian songstress Yana Kay and fans of him and the label have been begging for this to get a release. Following huge support from all the leading DJ's it has been number 1 on Audiojelly since the promo's were unleashed and now the full release is here! The release package offers 5 versions in various styles. First up is the successful duo by the name of Alex M.O.R.P.H. and Woody van Eyden who just crashed into the DJ Mag Top 100. They churned out a heavenly and euphoric masterpiece with huge breakdowns complimented by Yana Kay's soulful voice. Lush tones and uplifting melodies are the keywords. Peter Smit from the Netherlands also known as Marninx has worked out a deep progressive trancer under his Monogato alias. After Meridian is relatively new to the scene but does not disappoint with his heavy and dark progressive trancer with breakdowns loaded with soaring melodies. Yana Kay's fellow countryman Electricano has brought a housy remix to this release which brings out the best in the vocals and consists of great chord progression and minimal elements. Last up is Will Holland with his original. It is a laidback but uplifting trance tune with sliced vocal cuts and intelligent use of piano. Perfect way to round of this release!
