You are probably thinking "don't I know this tune?", and you are right, you probably do. "Morning Kiss" is an Infrasonic classic and one of the most memorable tunes from the label. The tune which is by
Mike Nichol was originally released in 2007 and is now getting a re-release with a remix from one of the hottest names in trance - Rob Stevenson aka Activa. This is exactly what you can expect from
Infrasonic Gold in the future.
Activa Remix
There is no mistaking here. This is without a doubt another winner from Activa. It has got that hard signature bassline of his and around the 3 minute mark the slamming shell cracks and introduces a magic atmosphere packed with pleasent pads. No over-top-supersaws or anything that breaks the perfect mood, only smooth and toned down melodies. Also what I quite like about this tune is that it is build on a lot of Activa's own ideas. It so happens that remixes end up sounding the same with just a few modifications to the lead sounds. So this mix is far from sounding like a simple rework.
Original Mix
Infrasonic gained a lot by releasing this tune. A massive support list and surely also put their name on the label map. A must have for any Mike Nichol fan.
Verdict
Morning Kiss is one of my personal favourites from Mike Nichol and for me, no remixer can top it! Activa does make a great alternative as his mix is different stylewize. I reckon the Activa mix would work better on a dancefloor cause of the style and the technical aspect of the production, which is slightly superior to the original mix.
