'Be Different' is Stoneface & Terminal's second artist album and was over a year in the making. It proves again that the two school friends can create true musical brilliance, which is exactly what an artist album should be. Being known for numerous successful club singles, Stoneface & Terminal deliver with their new album which provides an interesting mixture without forgetting their own sound. 'Be Different' is a journey from catchy vocal songs to techy rhythms via trancey lines and laidback sounds. Interesting collaborations with Kyau & Albert, Ellie Lawson, Sean Ryan, Amurai, Ronski Speed & Synthea and Ana Criado turn 'Be Different' into a timeless album. Prior to this album, Euphonic released the massive single 'For You' featuring Ellie Lawson.  </div>

only: the album’s fourth track, Travellers. Stoneface & Terminal really
came out of their shell with this instrumental tune; it sounds like trance,

and the breaks are soft, with smooth, distorted synths and the sounds of
airport ambience.</span></span></div>

all over the world German duo Stoneface & Terminal reveal the magical title
track of their awesome album Be Different. Once again they succeed to compose a
highly memorable progressive trancer with the words Trance Anthem all over it.
The stunning vocals courtesy of Sean Ryan who collaborated with great artists
amongst them ATB will speak to your heart straight away. It starts with
wonderful rock infused piano and guitar intro with electronic blissful blippy
synthy hook that will hypnotize the listener without doubts and transfer them
to a higher level of understanding, loving and being peacefully together on the
dancefloor. Chunky grooves, pulsating deep basslines, warm strings and
sunkissed melodies are merged to form the magnificent foundation for Sean Ryan
to appear and add his indie rock/ pop edge to the track with his dynamic but
very ethereal voice as well. Dreamy sing a long Balearic trancer that nicely
leads on the breakdown that is packed with colorful synths, mystical melodies
and heartfelt strings that make you feel like being in the sea side hearing the
therapeutic sound of crashing sea waves on the beach and smelling the summer
breeze. The climax offers the finest crescendo moment with all the soundlayers
coming together to offer you shivers all over your body from head to toe. It
finishes with very sweet and tender ambient outro to leave the listener wanting
to listen more. Be Different is </span><a href="https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/puregold" style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="color: windowtext;">#PureGold</span></a><span style="line-height: 115%;"> album

<span style="line-height: 115%;">This gem delivers a stunning pleasantry of multiple beats from varied
directions with traces of tribal undertones. It’s engineered to precision
rendering the listener unstoppable while indulging in and succumbing to its
grip. It ascends and then delivers a gentle ebb of breakdown but with the
anticipation of that adrenaline-rising rebuild that is eminent just beyond the
next few beats. The slight cessation resonates a trace of cosmic before
striking again with acoustic force. It’s this creative framework and weaving
that is the pillar of the quintessential, enduring hit. It’s that persistent
beat and that compelling energy. It’s that formula that the duo of Henri and
Mathias, aka Stoneface & Terminal, have mastered time and again and have
demonstrated here.</span></div>

own lives. To be our dreams and live them while being the better version of
ourselves imaginable through love, connection and seeing the best in other
people as we're all part of the same heart and planet. Ana Criado sang the
track with so much love and brought the small yet meaningful concept to reality

fragment? Or maybe that is a nimble description of the current conditions on

<span style="line-height: 18.399999618530273px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 115%;">Let us leave these reflections aside and come to grips of the music. The track
«Stuck In A Loop» is obviously divided into two parts, moreover the unexpected
development coming to light from the middle part of the track by leaps and
bounds, shows the entire potential of this production.</span></div>
</span>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 115%;">The initial part inspired by the modern «Progressive Techno», it is first and
foremost House music in contrary to Trance, and could be perceived as a
self-consistent production in the genre of House — well, let’s just easily
remember what the fellow German countrymen of Stoneface & Terminal have
done a couple of years ago — Christian and Frank from D-Nox & Beckers and
what type of sound is being promoted in 2014 by another prominent artist from
Germany, Tomcraft — the similar lively, brisk, energetic and moderately
monotonous vibrations properly moves the crowds both on the dancefloors of
nightclubs and on the large festival arenas.</span></div>
</span>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 115%;">The second part is quite a specific «surprise» in the form of a leading melody
and its surrounding framework: these two easily move «Stuck In A Loop» into
another genre plane. In actual conditions, when the vast majority of producers
tend to stay within the limits of standard, generic moves and tricks while
creating new tracks and to stay «trendy» and «on demand». Having nothing going
for oneself is absolutely not the case of Stoneface & Terminal — the German
duo stands against this mass predictability and puts accent on the classical
Trance polyphony instead of the eagerly sought but too easy interchange of
breakdowns and drops."</span></div>

<span style="line-height: 115%;">The track begins with the neo-sound of S&T, buildingthrough a deep thinking

track, we are transformed into a soundtrack of Platonism corruption or
Aristotelian revolution.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 115%;">At 4:10 the “Neo-sound” drops, and the hard hitting, head-banging begins, as if
we were front row for Caligula’s (the Roman Emperor’s) extravagance, sadism,
and extreme nature, which resulted in his demise. I myself vision the song
fitting for a Stanely Krubrick – Trance Space Odyssey crescendo. Timeless trance.

<div class="p1" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">To celebrate their 10<sup>th</sup> anniversary HeavensGate has released an amazing new album featuring new unreleased music from all over the HeavensGate universe. The mix has been put together by founders Alex M.O.R.P.H. and Woody van Eyden and released on Fenology Records.</span></div>
<div class="p1" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">The 1 and a bit hour mix kicks off spectacularly with Alex M.O.R.P.H. & Woody van Eyden - A night outside (Original Aluminium Mix) the euphoric uplifting sounds these two mega DJs have created lifts you to a new state of mind where the only thing that matters is for the mix not end. Before you can be too at ease they drop a massive track by true heavyweight in the Swiss dance scene DJ Madwave the (Alternative mix) of Hypnozer is up 2<sup>nd</sup>. Ever growing is the new love for club bangers and Osvaldo certainly delivers with Hamelin Pipper. After that Altuna gives us Little Lonsdale a brilliant uplifting track. The next few tracks transports the mix smoothly to ecstasy a fantastic remix by Tek-Tonic of Call In The Air an amazing vocal track by Tom Noize & Sean Darin, The Golden Age by Corti Organ, Unprejudiced by DuKa and Romance by Soulu all help bring the mix together. </span></div>
<div class="p1" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Up next is the brand new JayB club mix of Extravagance SL’ Aventador released on Fenology Records. Dutch DJ and producer Ruben de Ronde also makes an appearance with Fabio XB Guitar of the sun remix of his On My Mind a seriously uplifting track that is worthy of its praise. Another Fenology records release its KEN-GEE & G.Y.R.O. with KIBOU an absolute banger! Songs by British DJ James Dymond, co-founder of HeavensGate Woody van Eyden, Anna Lee, Azotti , Sun&Set as well as Jordan Suckley all making appearances with their respective tracks. Finishing off this dazzling mix in impeccable style is Dutch DJ and producer Maarten de Jong with 4.5 hours later. </span></div>
<br />
<div class="p1" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">In 2004 Alex M.O.R.P.H. and Woody van Eyden founded a monthly radio show called HeavensGate, now 10 years later they have produced this 1 hour and 18 minute marvel to commemorate it. Expertly mixed and a song selection to rock any stage anywhere in the world the HeavensGate volume 3 is a must on every trance heads list.         </span>       </div>

MAARTEN DE JONG  ‘FACE THE WORLD’

<span style="font-family: inherit;">Track by colossal track, Hollander Maarten de
Jong’s VANDIT score sheet has been growing since his 2011 debut for the label.
This year alone it has seen him deliver ‘Wave Glider’ and his first co-production
with scene stalwart Woody van Eyden, ‘It’s A Shark’. As 2013 draws to a close
though, with ‘Face The World’ it seems he’s been saving the year’s biggest and
most badass till last! <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">Recently
cited by label boss Paul van Dyk as “<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">one
of the most inspired, dancefloor-thinking producers out there</i>” Maarten de
Jong is back with ‘Face The World’. Over 6 intense, punch-packing minutes, the
studio young-blood delivers another impossible to ignore tour-de-force
production.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">Built
on a production chassis of pistoning beats, tightly torqued FX distortion and effective
synaptic-homing sub-melodies, ‘Face’ has all the early qualities of a floor
champion. At the drop, De Jong puts the track into high gear with some expressive
superstring atmosphere before driving it straight into a storm of steely
tech-trance fury. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
