HOUSE | Toca’s Miracle (Alex Elle Remix) by: Fragma | Vocal, Soulful
—
This is one of my favorite house tracks of all time. This remix adds a slightly darker element to the highly emotional and tearjerking mood of this piece, but in the end, all the darkness is resolved and humanity shines through.

DUBSTEP | Fable (Traxx Project Remixx) by: Robert Miles | Relaxing, Spacey
—
How many dubstep tracks take your mind to space. Not many. On Elation Station we’ve got ‘Prituri Se Planinata’ and ‘Way Back’, but most spacey songs are liquid drum and bass. Traxx Project’s remix of ‘Fable’ belongs to this group of spacey dubstep songs with its ability to be deep, yet uplifting; somber yet hopeful. We’re always looking for more, please suggest tracks if you know of any.

TRANCE | Shipwreck by: Mike Foyle | Relaxing, Cold, Warm
—
As soon as I started listening to this I started crying, because I read “Malavern’s” comment before I began the song, and his words resonated powerfully as soon as those sparse piano notes filled the air.
I won’t provide my own description, but quote Malavern instead:
“Imagine yourself lying on the beach in Ibiza with your partner/loved one in your arms.
Dream…
Imagine the golden amber glow of the sun reflecting off the waves as the sun sets beyond the horizon, the soft whispers of the sea breeze caressing you as time passes by…
Imagine the warm sand between your toes, and the fresh scent of the sea, and the touch of your lovers lips upon your own… Imagine.”
Memory or dream?

DUBSTEP | Sun Burst by: Minnesota | Uplifting, Chill
—
To say this song is emotionally stimulating is a severe understatement. This is one of those tunes that buries itself deep inside the cavities of your mind. If you don’t listen to this track, you’re missing out on something very special.

DRUM AND BASS | Oceanic (Titan Remix) by: Above & Beyond Pres. Tranquility Base | Uplifting, Relaxing
—
Tracks like these make me wonder if auditory beauty has a limit. A Titan remix of Above & Beyond begs the question: Is there a majesty greater than liquid drum and bass?

TRANCE | XSV01 by: Fausto and BRK 3 | Energizing, Uplifting
—
Skip to 2:30 and this song will be indistinguishable from the soothing beach trance vibes of artists like Mat Zo and others on ASOT. Wait a minute, though, and you will understand the beauty of progressive music. A rare beauty that successfully transitions from beach chill out to absolute and utter rave.

HOUSE | Autosave - Fedde Le Grand & Patric La Funk | Energizing, Warm
—
Don’t let the beginning of this video fool you into thinking that these two average looking guys are just playing around with garage band. Once they find the right snare drum, the drop emanates through the world striking everyone with a sense of elation, joy, and the strong urge to party the night away. Be sure to ‘autosave’ this song in your library!

DUBSTEP | I Love U So (Trowa Remix) - Cassius | Uplifting, Dirty
—
Trowa brings us another sick dubstep remix of a Cassius classic. You might remember his brilliant remix of The Glitch Mob’s Drive It Like You Stole It, but in this remix, he does it even better.

HOUSE | Nowhere (Mango Remix) by: Serge Flibustier | Relaxing, Warm
—
Mango’s remix of ‘Nowhere’ blanketed me with indescribable bliss the first time I heard it. Close yours eye and imagine yourself nowhere, and with the lullaby synths of this track filling the reality, you will realize that ‘nowhere’ is exactly where you want to be.

DUBSTEP | Yeah Yeah (Monty’s Dirty Clunge Remix) - Bodyrox | Vocal, Energizing
—
This remix of the previously ubiquitous Bodyrox banger, ‘Yeah Yeah’ reminds me of why that tune was such a massive hit back in 2007. Monty speeds up the synths gracefully and adds some skull-grinding bass to appease all the dubstep fanatics out there. If you’re in the mood for a dirty bassline, this song is for you.
