Born and bred in the city, Jody Wisternoff ‘s 25-year musical journey has had connections to just about every aspect in one way or another and every last influence – both classic and contemporary – seeps into his refreshing debut artist album “Trails We Blaze”.

But while so many veterans lose their lust for musical discoveries, Wisternoff remains more inspired by new sounds than ever before. As anyone that listens to his monthly Intensified podcasts will know, the Bristolian’s finger remains firmly on the pulse of all that is classy and cutting-edge in electronic music.

Blending elements of house, nu disco, progressive, techno and bass, the upbeat “Trails We Blaze” condenses Jody’s personal journey through music into 12 diverse electronic grooves; referencing his classic and contemporary musical loves.

Representing Jody’s modern take on Balearic grooves, tracks like the “How You Make Me Smile” (feat. Pete Josef) and the nu-disco influenced “Just One More” are both soulful and sophisticated; perfect for balmy summer nights.

Filmed in a central London flat, the video focuses of the two lead characters going about their daily relationship; and the many joys that they inspire in each other.

The album isn’t without its darker shades, though. Harking back to his years lost in Bristol bass bins, the hypnotic techno groover “95” and the hip-hop indebted “Red Stripes” both reference Jody’s love of vintage jungle, while reworks of the Pete Tong-endorsed “Starstrings” and the Beatport number 1 “Cold Drink, Hot Girl” update two of his most classic solo tracks.

Jody Wisternoff is best known as one half of the Bristol progressive house duo Way Out West and as a producer of dance music spanning early 90s hardcore to electro house.

His first break came in the late 1980′s as one half of Tru Funk Posse (with his brother Sam) when Bristol producers Smith & Mighty opened up their studio to them. Their tracks were playlisted by DJ Tim Westwood and the brothers appeared in magazine The Face.

In the early 90s Wisternoff DJed at clubs such as Universe and Fantasia and produced tracks with DJ Die (now of Reprazent fame) under the name Sub Love, along with singer & song writer Sue Brice aka Coco Star vocalist of Fragma’s Toca’s Miracle.

However Wisternoff met with fellow DJ Nick Warren in a Bristol record shop which saw the birth of the progressive house act Way Out West. Fusing the dub sounds of Bristol with club beats the duo saw the peak of their success in the mid to late 90s with tracks like “The Gift” and “Ajare“.

In the mid to late 90s Wisternoff was a resident DJ at Temptation, a leading Friday night techno and jungle club night at Bristol’s Lakota nightclub, which was promoted by Bristol based producer Leon Alexander of Hope Recordings. In 1997 Jody released his first mix album “The Silver Planet Collection Volume 1” followed by the well received “Way Out There – A Progressive DJ Mix” in 2001.

Asa cum ne-a promis la ultimul sau concert din 2011, Armin van Buuren revine in Romania in acest an 2012 ! The Mission ne vor rasfta si in acest an, cu cel mai bun dj din lume in ultimii 5 ani.

Motiv pentru care, am declarat-o WEEKend SONG 

Auditie placuta si weekend minunat 

Proiectul britanicului Steve Helstrip a inceput in 1998 in calitate de dj, producator si remixer. In decursul timpului, acesta a mai fost cunoscut si prin alte id-uri precum En Motion, Insigma, Rapid Eye, Hydra. Istoria muzicii trance, il va retine si aprecia pentru The Thrillseekers.

Si-a fondat propria casa de productie “Adjusted Music” iar colaborarile sale sunt cu majoritatea dj-ilor importanti. Va mentionez acum doar cativa : Tiesto, Chicane, Ferry Corsten, Timo Mass, Sonique, Blank & Jones sau Seb Fontaine.

Steve Helstrip a revenit in forta, pe data de 23 aprilie, prezentandu-ne ceva nou, fanilor sai din intreaga lumea. Este vorba despre albumul “Escape“. De pe acest album, m-am oprit astazi pentru voi, la o piesa “Angel“.

Don’t love me more than god
Only love me just as much
As you love yourself
And I’ll be your angel

I’ll lift you up, lay you down
And cover your heart with me
Beneath my wings
Everything you ever dreamed will be
Just lay down next to me

And I’ll give you all, you and me
Just lay down next to me
Angel Angel
Angel I’ll be your angel
Angel Angel
Angel I’ll be your angel

I’ll lift you up, lay you down
And cover your heart with me
Beneath my wings
Everything you ever need will be
Just lay down next to me

When the world has pushed me down
And I feel like I can’t go on
Will you take my hand
And give me all your strength

And lift me up, lay me down
And cover my heart on me
Beneath your wings
Everything I ever dreamed will be
Just lay down next to me

We will be one
Take all the love I give
Hold it close
Don’t let the enviers to drift away
And two hearts a beating in perfect time
Everything else just seems to fade away

And we’ll lift it up
They’ll all, they’ll all just fade away
Let me lift you up everyday
Just lay down next to me
Angel Angel
Angel I’ll be your angel
Angel Angel
I’ll be your angel

I’ll lift you up, lay you down
And cover your heart on me
Beneath my wings
Everything we ever dreamed will be
Just lay down next to me
