Thomas Datt - Mass Effect

Discover’s Polish-American prodigy Thomas Datt is back with another demonstration of his talents at writing and producing quality underground melodic trance. The track gears up effortlessly, with layers of percussion gradually gaining intensity with small effects tucked away. Hazy pads add to the atmosphere, until the main melodies take over. The breakdown is immaculate, with warm waves of melodic quality flowing and a dramatic riff that hooks the listener, until the wave breaks and the beats surge back in.
 
Austrian duo Dust & Heatcliff, who debuted with the excellent Eastern Dawn late last year on sister label Discover White Label, are this time brought in for the remix and don’t disappoint. The beats have a steelier edge and the bassline gets toughened up, with a crashing hi-hat adding some raw power while a new electro style melody is unleashed which takes the track on a different tack until the riff from the original mix resurfaces. The main melody appears again at the midsection, but this time gets tweaked adding further energy that powers the track onwards.
