Pierre Pienaar – ‘Ibiza Sunset’

(2 votes, average: 4 out of 5)

 Loading ...

Nukleuz favourite and head of Nukleuz Green, Pierre Pienaar (aka P.H.A.T.T. / Melodia) presents ‘Ibiza Sunset’. A beautiful bit of Trance that epitomises the sound of Ibiza’s sunset strip. It’s always been Pierre’s ability to create some of the most beautiful, heart strung Trance that’s made him the hugely popular producer he is.

Having gained support from the likes of Paul Van Dyk & Dave Pearce to name two out of a hundred others, Pierre’s latest track is a divine piece of music, filled to the brim with emotion that will most definitely add to the atmosphere of the sunset seen night after night all along the bars that perch over the rocks of San Antonio, facing out to that legendary sunset that is the ‘Ibiza Sunset’.

The original mix from Pierre is a pumping Trance track with a usually big, drawn out Trance build up that brings in the classic long string synths and stabs that gradually develop into this powerful, pounding Trance beat that would suit clubs not only on the White Isle but all the way round the world and back again.

Next up in the package are Steve Allen and Ben Alonzi with their remix Dub. Still built up around the classic Trance structure, Allen and Alonzi stick to the beautiful string synths that slowly build up to drop into another beautifully crafted Trance anthem.

The final remix comes courtesy of Derek The Bandit Vs James Nelson with their Progressive Dub, which slows the whole track down and turns it into a stunning, chilled track, that really would be perfect for a Mambo/Café Del Mar sunset.

P.H.A.T.T - DAMAGE CONTROL

(3 votes, average: 4 out of 5)

 Loading ...

The Head Of Nukleuz Trance is back with his own unique style that can be heard in clubs all over the globe. Following up on his recent success he now presents Damage Control. A track that justifies the attention he’s received from the likes of Paul Van Dyk, Dave 202, Lost Witness and Dave Pearce - as dark, energetic and emotive as ever.

As is always with P.H.A.T.T’s style, the track subtly builds up developing more and more energy as it unravels, before unleashing its spine tingling riff and phatt basslines that create that hugely emotive and passionate trance sound as its meant to be.

First on the remixes is S.H.O.K.K, who while still sticking to the basics of the original, presents a much darker, harder track that keeps the original build up structure, finally, unleashing the monster riff to great effect.

The James Condon & Dan Identikal meets Vandal remix takes the sound to a different level. While once again keeping the harder sounds and the same continuously developing structure it presents a slightly more electro tinge and takes out the big trance riff to replace it with the electro bass and pumping beats.

Pierre Pienaar - This Is Where We Are

(5 votes, average: 3.8 out of 5)

 Loading ...

Pierre Pienaar aka P.H.A.T.T. cannot be stopped! His electric remixes of CRW ‘I Feel Love’, Mauro Picotto ‘Komodo’ and Rachel Loy ‘I Can Feel It (Lovin’ Me) has smashed clubs & dance charts across the globe and since becoming Head of Nukleuz’s Green label has been producing and signing some gems and anthems in the making.

CRW rose to # 23 in the Dance Singles Chart of iTunes in the US having appeared exclusively on
# 1 album ‘Ibiza Trance Anthems 2007’ mixed by Nukleuz DJs, Nebula vs Maelstrom DJs. And his forthcoming Rachel Loy remix has already grabbed the attention of Dave Pearce “I played it at 4 gigs at the weekend and it went down very well, I think this will be a big record on my show. I think this could be a big track for you”

Pierre’s latest offering ‘this Is Where We Are’ proves that he has the midas touch crafting riffs and melodies of pure gold. Subtly building through uplifting grooves with energy levels rising in waves before dropping to feel good riffs that invigorate the soul and make you long for beaches and summer or at least the Winter Solstice. This is classic feel good trance as it is meant to sound!

On the flip Pierre calls in 21 year old rising Star Nicolas Perrottey aka DJ Space Raven from France for remix duties. Having collaborated with top artist such as Mat Silver Vs. Tony Burt, S.H.O.K.K., DuMonde, P.H.A.T.T., Alphazone, DJ Sakin & Friends, Klubbingman, Soulcry (Lisaya vs. Petersen), Wavetraxx, Alex Bartlett, Titus, Ray Burton, Megara vs. DJ Lee and many more Nicholas has built a strong fanbase and continues to go from strength to strength. This remix which will feature on the follow up to Ibiza Trance Anthems 2007… Trance Sessions Winter Solstice retains the same vibe, but toughens up the groove and adds the flare that Nicolas is so well known for.
