GENERAL INFO ---------------------------------------------------------------------
Iji Recordings is about to release their first album. This one is coming from no other than The Orange who also delivered the first single for the label Purple Sky which saw a fair share of support on the radio airwaves. The album has already been released, and with great success, in Russia where The Orange hails from.
Vasily has only been writing and composing since 2006 but has achieved a lot in this short amount of time; he's been behind anthems for massive festivals such as 'Flash Supernew 2007' and 'Arena the Drive 2009'. The debut album out in 2007 has brought The Orange the big success, having won respect from dance music fans and professional DJs and musicians alike.
Furthermore his productions have seen support from the likes of Tiesto, Markus Schulz, Solarstone, Roger Shah, Mike Foyle, Airbase and 4 Strings. As a DJ he's played alongside worldwide known acts such as Paul Van Dyk, Ferry Corsten, Faithless, Sister Bliss, ATB, Markus Schulz, Brian Cross, Mar-T and DJ Feel.
DESCRIPTION -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Orange starts out with an intro tune Edem. The soothing pads, lush vocal and the trancey synths sets the mood. Vasily makes a quick u-turn stylewize with the next track Extra which is pumping and techy. The techy frenzy continues with Magik Music which comes with vocals from the amazing K.I.R.A. who delivered the vocals for Purple Sky. A bit deeper, heavily relies on the sharp percussion and punchy bassline.
Another style change, once again, into an electro tinged world. He ups the tempo with Unhuman; techy, dark and with a mysterious and captivating melody. Not rips it up with huge electro house sounds.
This chapter of the album is the trancey one. The classy and stunning Good Evening has a warm bass, a great main lead and sparkling percussion to top it off. You Know This Story is all about the big bass and Rainbow Inside Us aims for the big rooms as well. Purple Sky which was released earlier in 2010 is also a part of the album; a brilliant vocal track which is not to be missed.
Are U Ready For 2012 has its obvious trance influences but the bass hook is taken right out of an electro track. Proper buzz!
The album is rounded off smoothly with 3 stunning tracks. I Have It For U progresses with thick pads and dreamy underlying melodies. Sky Windows is a feel-good downtempo trancer with a lovely main theme. This Beautiful World rounds it all off. A relaxed progressive trancer with lovely late night beach vibes! Don't miss out the second album from this Russian talent!
FEEDBACK -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Heatbeat:
"Excellent job by The Orange, from the first to the last track. Beyond the nice melodies, the quality of sound is amazing. An innovating sound stands out and progressive rhythms make you want to dance! It's essential for everyone to have it in your MP3!"
Manuel Le Saux:
"After the first time I've listened the album my first tough was "very very nice job", after the second time I've started liking it more. The quality of the tracks is high level and well done. K.I.R.A.'s voice is amazing. You Know This Story, I Have It For U, This Beautiful World are my favorites. Again - very nice job from The Orange. Keep up the great job."
Leon Bolier:
"A nice and consistent album with a nice intro track. Starts off with some electro influenced tracks, then heads into You Know This Story and Rainbow Inside Us, some very nice atmospheric tracks. Purple Sky is a cool vocal track with some detroit-ish stabs - me like! Afterwards a more uptempo track Are U Ready For 2012 before heading into atmospheric stuff. Very nice stuff to listen on a sunny Sunday I think."
