We had the chance to review Andrew Rayel’s debut album set to release May 30 through Armada Music.
With mentorship by Armin van Buuren, Andrew Rayel has curated an album sure to withstand the test of time.
The 18 track EP flawlessly incorporates all of our favorite elements and the trance genre while taking you on an epic journey. Just when you are entranced in the ground moving melody, the album hits its’ apex with “EIFORYA,” a tune that brings mentor and prodigy together in an unbridled work of art.
The variety of vocalists including Christian Burns, Jonathan Mendelsohn, Cindy Alma, Alexandra Badoi, Sylvia Tosun, Lira Yin, Jano and Jwaydan bring an aural element that perfectly ties together the energetic beauty created by the modern Mozart of electronic dance music.
Opening with the title track, Find Your Harmony seamlessly blends in to a collection of tracks that are primarily original showcases of the next prodigy himself. Rayel succeeds in taking you on an emotional roller coaster with his ability to fluctuate between chilled out down-tempo right back towards 160 beats per minute just when you are ready for it.
His ability to manipulate your musical emotions is a skill very few artists are able to so elegantly perfect and that is why Rayel is quickly cementing himself as one of the flagship names in electronic trance.
“One in a Million” boasts the powerful vocals of John Mendelson who offers a reassuring message of hope and love. Add this to the shimmering introduction and massive build up that cascades in to a breakdown and you have an instrument capable of shifting the earth beneath the dance floor.
Also be sure to keep your ears open for “EIFORYA” and “Fading Echoes” as they are sure to be three of the can’t miss tracks of the summer.
