Blasterjaxx Reboots “The Silmarillia”!

If you’re anything like me, your very first introduction to EDM was in the 90s, back when “EDM” was still considered “techno” and there was a very particular sound pattern that artists followed. There was one particular 90s trance masterpiece called “The Silmarillia” that I’ll never forget. Coming from the likes of old school Dutch trance master, Carlos, “The Silmarillia” has all the callings of the perfect electronica throwback. I thought that this track couldn’t have gotten any better and then, much to my delight, one of my favorite artists, Blasterjaxx, decided to revive the 1997 classic!

Recreating a masterpiece can be a tall order, usually because the original is so widely loved! Yet, Blasterjaxx has wowed us again with their incredible talent! Artists Idir and Thom have reworked one of their favorite Dutch trance anthems via their new recording label, Maxximize Recordings, and created a track that can’t be missed! The new “The Silmarillia” has all the qualities of old school Sandstorm and Basshunter coupled with the ingenuity of the millennial beat.

Stream Blasterjaxx – The Silmarillia on SoundCloud:

You’ll be enticed by the pan flute melodies reminscent of the late 1980s and early 1990s and wowed by the signature big room-progressive house Blasterjaxx drop! The new edition of “The Silmarillia” track stays faithful to the original hit while adding respectful new structures reflective of a new era of EDM. You’ll love the lighthearted interplay between the different structures of the track! “The Silmarillia” already has DJ support from big names like Hardwell, W&W, Bassjackers, and Krewella. This beautiful new trancey track is bound to be hits at festivals and clubs all over the world this summer!

In fact, with the way Blasterjaxx is going, don’t be surprised if you start to see these two powerhouses everywhere! You’ll find Thom playing at Parookaville and Airbeat One in Germany, We Are The Future in The Netherlands, and Tomorrowland in Belgium among many more! Make sure to look out for more from Maxximize Recordings as well!
