YouÆre having a decent summer. Things are fine. The weatherÆs playing ball (mostly), your vacationÆs edging closer and youæve some fest tickets stashed. Something summer though æaint quite right and youÆve not been able to put your finger on it. We think weÆve got the answer: itÆs the search for æIn Search Of SunriseÆ. Yes, that perennial starting-shot for hot-season, its categorical GO! moment has been MIA for several years and things, frankly, æaint been right since! Well call off the search, the Big Kahuna of all trance compilations, (the one that MIXMAG no less hailed ôthe greatest trance series of them all!Æ) is on the comeback track. And itÆs had a bit of a refit! Following the mix tenures of Tiδsto and Richard Durand, series guardians Black Hole have shaken up its system and retooled the ISOS DJ dynamic. TheyÆve secured the services of three spinners whose credentials in the realms of sunrise soundscaping are beyond question. Markus Schulz, Gabriel & Dresden and Andy Moor have all picked up the ISOS mix mantle and have each embarked on their own forays for sunrays. Cumulatively this has resulted in an album that draws on the music of many a mainstay - Above & Beyond, Dakota, Cosmic Gate, Solarstone, Ferry Corsten, Paul Oakenfold and Aly & Fila among them. Naturally this is assimilated into much of the DJs own studioware (often exclusively) to deliver you an immaculate break-oÆdawn, summer summarising soundtrack. WeÆve all been there, and many times over. That singular moment when, for the first time, the sky above the party lightens, the DJ catches its thematic thermal and you have element & music in perfect synch. There are few feelings to beat it and encapsulating that alchemy has been the unending quest of æIn Search Of SunriseÆ. First to make his pitch is a genre polymath for whom no trance discipline is beyond mastery. Markus Schulz begins his quest with the translucent æHymn of the ReplicantÆ - an exclusive overture born of recent studio sessions with Jam El Mar. From there it cruises on to Above & Beyond & Justine SuissaÆs æCold FeetÆ, lifts again with æSomething About YouÆ (his Dakota pairing with Arkham Knights), before marking its median through SolarstoneÆs homage to æMidsummer NightsÆ. Travelling onwards it hypnotises with the mantra of Corsten x Oakie collab æA Slice Of HeavenÆ, before delivering new perspectives (from Johan Gielen and Elevation) on Schulz/Suissa classic æPerceptionÆ and MoogwaiÆs æViolaÆ. Like ISOS itself, Gabriel & Dresden have done their own fair share of rematerializing of late. Josh & Dave transition darkness to light through the likes of NadenÆs epic æSubmersionÆ, the ethereal vocalism of Eelke KleijnÆs æHomeÆ, elegiac elegance formed by Lucas RossiÆs æA Part of MyselfÆ and EstivaÆs sonorous æSpace DustÆ. Denoting daybreak, the pair brilliantly sequence a run of their own material. Their recent G&D reworks of Dirty SouthÆs haunting æIf It All StopsÆ and Above & BeyondÆs æIs It Love?Æ prefaces their most recent single æOver OceansÆ and Cosmic GateÆs exceptional revision of æOnly RoadÆ. Our final mixing debutante (for 2018) is Andy Moor, who begins his expedition with Paul ThomasÆ chilling of Aly & Fila/Scott Bond/Charlie Walker collab æShadowÆ. He progresses mix matters with Stoneface & TerminalÆs cyanic take on ThrillseekersÆ æIn These ArmsÆ and OmniaÆs sun channeling rework of Lange & Sarah HowellsÆ æOut Of The SkyÆ. Contrasting remixed anthems with classics in the making, he feeds AirbaseÆs lavish æVermillionÆ, the symphonic æBeaconÆ from Mike Saint- Jules and AndyÆs Becky Jean Williams team-up æThe Real YouÆ into its system. Seeing this sunrise to its ultimate zenith, he builds comp-exclusive versions of æProteusÆ and æBioluminescenceÆ from Neptune Project in, before delivering its astounding coup de grace, the æBroken WingsÆ inspired æSupernalÆ from Supernal. ISOS:14 is not æDJs delivering their ôtakesö or ôinterpretationsö on the originally-modelled-by-Tiδsto soundÆ. This is the real deal - a wholehearted connection, direct to its original vision.
