Sergei Shkuroff - Bratislava (Ville Lope Remix) [Captivating Sounds]
On Monday 17th of November Sergei Shkuroff - Bratislava has it’s release on Armada’s sublabel Captivating Sounds. I had the honour to have my remix on the release as well.
The remix was my first attempt to my new style, being influenced by variety of my friends like Cressida, Joonas Hahmo, Hawk and Marcus Schössow.
Bratislava Remix was a huge leap forward in my productions, not to mention that the original track was already signed to Armada stables Captivating Sounds imprint by the leading man Armin Van Buuren.
I’m so grateful my remix made it to the release. This is a big thing for me, and keeps me motivated for quite a while. Now I know for sure I can really make it in this industry.
I’ve already got some feedback on the release though I haven’t even sent my own promo mailing out.
hello bro

Airwave - Punjabi Child (Ville Lope Remix) [Bonzai Trance Progressive]
First ever released remix - a Airwave track. Being a dream and a challenge at the same time, it really did came true.
From Airwave’s original beautiful low tempo trance track I made a bit faster, more progressive, hypnotic track without missing a beautiful breakdown.
The track was released on Bonzai Trance Progressive on October 14th 2008.
You can listen to the track on Soundcloud and buy my remix from your favourite digital electronic
music store - like Audiojelly, Beatport or iTunes for instance.
If you prefer physical products, you can buy a CDR from CDJShop:
Finity Essentials radioshow
Beach X is a new trance trio from Kotka, Finland.
These three fellows, Pekko Haimi, DJ Radiac and DJ Holle, have been DJing and producing individually on their own for several years. In spring 2008 their paths were finally joined and they started to make music together.
Their musical taste varies from house and progressive house to trance. Beach X’s sound is full of influences from the good old years, but with modern twist.
This producing trio are also DJing together, bringing you sets combining “the usual” and progressive sides of house and trance.

Going on in the studio
I remixed “Tempo Giusto - Running Out of Time” for Finnish Echelon Recordings. The track has been a frequent player on my recent sets. You can spot the track on my Revolution guestmix and from Soundcloud.
I made a track with young uprising finnish talent, Chantola. “Blowfish” is already being signed to Bonzai, where it is going to be released in early 2009 from yet undecided sublabel. The track is a hypnotic progressive house/trance hybrid.
I signed two tracks to Miika Kuisma’s super cool Subtraxx Label. A track called “Gratitude” will be released as Beatport exclusive in January and will be fully released on February.
Soon I’m starting remixes for two really interesting tracks. I’ll be informing you about these as soon as I have something confirmed to tell you.
Besides all these I’m working on couple of solo tracks and various amount of interesting collabs.
