[ ::.. RELEASE NOTES ..:: ]
............................

Silk Music proudly presents Silk Remixed 09, the ninth 
installment of the annual series. The release comprises new 
interpretations of some of our most beloved releases from the 
past few years, courtesy of various deep, progressive, and 
trance sensations from our core roster.

Kicking off this year's 'Silk Remixed' package, Polish label 
veteran Andromedha delivers an exhilarating take on A.M.R's Pale 
Blue. In the early going, a peak-hour progressive groove 
underpins a celestial array of kaleidoscopic arpeggios. 
Following a powerful crescendo, the rhythm elements retreat, 
paving the way for a gorgeous main breakdown sequence, in which 
an awe-inspiring orchestral score takes center stage. In the 
thunderous drop to follow, the unforgettable main vocal motif 
from the original version is a thrilling final addition to the 
mesmerizing soundscape.

Released three years ago, Sound Quelle's Djerba helped solidify 
the Russian talent's status as one of the greatest composers of 
progressive electronic music of his generation. His countryman 
Noequalgods now serves up a tasteful (and often blissful) 
rendering, which honors the original arrangement and themes, 
albeit with a much deeper rhythmic flow. The chilled groove 
allows the intoxicating vocal themes and exotic instrumental 
elements to really stand out throughout the composition. In the 
main break, we are reminded of the extraordinary beauty of the 
original mix's climactic elements. In the final movement of the 
arrangement, Noequalgods adds a few subtle side melodies and a 
powerful new bass layer to euphoric effect.

Celebrated Latvian duo Blood Groove & Kikis introduced the Silk 
Music community to a deeper direction to their sound via the 
memorable Close To You EP in October of this past year. Gifted 
UK-based talent Valiant officially makes his label debut with 
his exceedingly beautiful 'Pierside' remix. Seaside motifs 
abound, as a gentle house groove and oscillating bassline guide 
the listener to a late-summer seaside locale. Beautiful 
bell-tinged melodies and a variety of other atmospheric 
flourishes ultimately lead to a transcendent main breakdown, in 
which romantic string themes and the faint cries of seagulls 
euphoniously coalesce. The listener continues to drift out to 
sea in the concluding moments of Valiant's blissful take.

There's nothing somnolent about Terry Da Liba's uplifting 
interpretation of the A.M.R classic, Sleep. A muscular 
progressive house groove centers on a funky, sliding bassline, 
as echoes of the song's refrain (Sleep till I come home) echo 
overhead. Closer to the song's climax, stirring string themes a 
TDL signature also begin to fill out the soundscape. In the 
main breakdown, the beats slowly fade out, as the titular vocal 
phrase receives the full spotlight in the drop to follow, Terry 
infuses the arrangement with a more anthemic vibe, courtesy of a 
reverberating new lead theme.

Closing out the Silk Remixed 09 EP, the trio of Hausman, 5ALVO, 
and Lumynesynth share the welcome surprise of an unplugged, 
'Acoustic' rendering of their recent single, Eden, which was 
championed by the likes of Cosmic Gate. In this version, 
Lumynesynth's extraordinarily beautiful vocals imbue the 
listener's soul with feelings of longing and romance, as equally 
gorgeous guitar licks punctuate her verses. The backing drums 
powerfully crescendo in the song's concluding minutes, further 
intensifying the emotional resonance of the song.
