The second chapter is stocked full of quality talent throughout the album.
Through the long winter and spring months, all the artists on Materia Chapter.Two have kept busy to bring their vision to fruition, with one thing in mind: To put a smile on the faces of trance lovers all over the planet with productions that are worthy of unadulterated praise and adoration.
Many of the artists on Materia Chapter.Two have been known to brush elbows with Nic & Bossi in the past, having been featured on Materia Chapter.One. Eric Lumiere and Alastor both return since adding their own special flair on Materia’s first edition with their respective “Bigger Than We Are” and “Someday”. And then we have JES, the incredible singer/songwriter who brought her next level musical stylings to Materia Chapter.One, now stealing the limelight once again on not only one, but two tracks, including the title track “Materia” and “If Not Now”.
Following 2014’s “Sparks After The Sunset”, Sarah Lynn joins in on all the action, with “Folded Wings” and Arnej joins his fellow dance music comrades once again since “Sometimes They Come Back For More” (an appropriate title considering today’s news), to deliver ” No Strings Attached”. Markus Schulz and Super8 & Tab also drop in to say hello with 2 tracks reserved for the peak hours of the night, reminding us why trance will forever remain one of the greatest genres on the planet.
Those wondering whether Materia’s journey would come to feature Emma Hewitt’s stunning vocals need to wonder no more!
Given its debut by Armin van Buuren on A State Of Trance 821, “Tonight” is every trance fans dream, with hypnotic lyrics floating among a melody that will set you off into a state of pure bliss.
