Push - Electric Eclipse, CD
Label: Bonzai Style: Electro, progressive trance, chill out Release Date: Unknown - R.E.S.P.E.C.T. - This track refers to my nickname M.I.K.E. (anyway, the dots do) I called this track R.E.S.P.E.C.T. cause that’s what I feel when making music… And that’s what my music stands for… having respect for each other. Well in fact the support of the fans is important to me and one day I played at Gatecrashers NEC in 2002 and someone was holding up a banner saying the words “.. and on the 7th day God created M.I.K.E.” (check the pic on the Bonzai site). I would never exist without my fans and this record is dedicated to them. - Imagine - … a world full of peace, no stress, no hunger, no pain… When I’m making music, I’m alone in the dark, a violet illuminated studio, surrounded by high-tech-machines, far away from reality! Down there… I’m in my own world... When I’m in my studio I get these visions and hallucinations about the future … - Trance-Parent - Like the name and one of my favorite tracks on the album… I like smooth melodic lines that make you dream. Trance music is so diverse… Depending on the sounds you use - it’s like a painting… the kind of colors that are mixed, the better or more abstract a painting gets… - So is TRANCE… In fact Trance-Parent for me gives the feeling & guidance of having my mother around me, I miss her very much … - Electric Eclipse - It’s the albums anthem & new single. I was influenced by the sun-eclipse back in 2000, when I was writing this track I remember the cold rush that came down to earth when the moon crossed the sun. A scary cold atmosphere… but when the sun came back… then you see how precious & fragile LIFE is… I was watching the sun-eclipse together with my old fellows from the Bonzai Music label, quite an experience that brought us closer together… - Blue Midnight - My favorite track on the album! When it comes to real trance music, this is the sound I prefer… Smooth… a low bass… high floating strings… a bit electronic… A touch of champagne… a nice girl… turn out the lights… & here you go!!! - Journey Of Life - First single taken from this album back in 2003. This track was originally a remix, but at the end I decided to keep it for myself, as it was way to different from the original. It was a quite good follow up to “TRANCEFORMATION” in the vain of “The Legacy”. It came along with a Rank1 Remix. - Universal Nation 2003 - A re-work of this all time monster-track was not that easy. As there were previous mixes done by Ferry Corsten & Oliver Lieb. I re-polished it a bit with a more groovy loop & uplifting hook… I still prefer the original one of course!!! Can’t beat that one!!! Originally it was a B-side which I made when I was having a big emotional breakdown, yes indeed this record really made my cry inside and outside … - TRANCEFORMATION (vs globe) - This track was co-written by Japanese top-producer Tetsuya Komuro. I started this track as a remix project for “globe”, but we both liked the end result, so we decided to release it under Push vs globe. Came in a special package with the Universal Nation 2003 Remix. Tetsuya got very interested in my music after Strange World, he is the biggest electronic producer in Japan. Our record companies got us together when I played for the Belgian National Football Team in Tokyo during the World Cup 2002 and from one thing came another … - Strange World (Tranquilo's Chill Out Mix) - One of the all time PUSH classics. We all know we are living in a “Strange World” and after the stressful moments we experience, this remix is aiming to those who want to sit back and relax. As the Club Mix took control over the dance-floors, this mix makes you close your eyes, sit back & remember the good old days… For me this is just a cool nice chilly remix that brings me back to my senses. - United We Stand - “United We Stand” stands for the message I want to bring inside my music, all together and trying to make it a better place. This one goes deep into your soul. A bit more techy than the other album tracks… but I really love this one! A wild trancer with a freaky synthline. When this track ends, you want to hear the album allover again!!! Peace… M.I.K.E. www.bonzaimusic.com www.mike.be |
