Monday Choon: Sunny Lax - By My Side

 

Hungarian trance music and progressive house producer come DJ Sunny Lax has been busy experimenting with his latest EP "Ruby". He says its a fusion of the old and new Sunny Lax, which is a showcase of the artistic freedom that he always wanted to reach, where he is able to explore new genres, unusual sounds, arrangements and sometimes darker vibes than usual. After hearing today's featured track, "By My Side", I can tell you with full confidence that the 36 year old is on the money with this one. He says its his way of being a story teller through his music and it encapsulates what he says about the EP in general brilliantly. The song featured is the extended mix but once the song starts you will immediately get gripped by its melodic symphony and the vocals. It's an amazing track and one that has received a good few plays by me in the car, so hope you enjoy it too! 

Monday Choon: Sunny Lax - Ayahuasca

 

Hungarian music producer Levente Marton better known by his stage Sunny Lax recently launched his Emerald EP. After hearing it on the day of release, I can safely say Trance music is a love and well, with the tracks featured on this EP being nothing short of sublime. While I had some favourites which I've heard prior to the launch, this particular song which we have featured today, "Ayahuasca" caught me from the build up, with a very similar sound to that of Eric Prydz the track has a very melodic background with a constant build till the euphoric drop and bassline. With only 3 tracks feartured on the EP, Sunny had this to say about it "The past few years were a rollercoaster for many of us, with all its difficulties and beauties. In these times as an artist I had the chance to slow down and pa a little more attention to my inner voice. When the world was a little too mad around me, I escaped into the music - into the heartwarming melodies , and when the world became too quiet, I filled it up with loud rythms.

Monday Choon: Sunny Lax - Night Sky

 

Hungarian Trance and Progressive House Music producer Sunny Lax is our featured artist of the week with his latest work, "Night Sky". If you are a fan to the weekly podcast Group Therapy by Above & Beyond then you would have head this one get plenty of air-play in the past month an were itching for the release like me. It's been two-weeks since Anjunabeats released the track and judging by the streams, it's definitely a banger of note and we're loving the original as well as all the remixes of it so far. While today's feature was a toss-up between the original and the Eighty Six Remix, I had to settle on the original thanks to that banging bassline. 

Monday Choon: Sunny Lax & EL Waves - Stay (Club Mix)

A song when it was first released hit home to me quite hard, been a fan of it ever since and I'm glad as I proceeded for my morning run today, that this Club Mix of the track was the first play on ABGT391 because there's nothing like some great trance music to get the endorphins going to get you through a 5km run. Sunny Lax, the Hungarian progressive and trance DJ has been enjoying the success of his recently released album, End of Our Time, Stay which features El Waves was a pretty mellow track but with lots of significance and meaning, it's been given the club mix treatment and it's everything I expected and more. The track still retains its soulfulness but with the right amount of beats to be enjoyed in a club environment. Released last week, so its still fresh off the press, scroll down and take a listen to it. 

Monday Choon: Jason Ross feat Fiora – When The Night Falls (Sunny Lax Remix)

For those who are regular listeners to the Group Therapy podcasts would have heard Sunny Lax's exceptional takeover last week on ABGT381. One of the stand out songs for me was his remix of Jason Ross's "When the Night Falls" featuring Fiora. Sunny Lax has done an exceptional job on this remix, as he's enhanced the feeling of the track.  The song has such a great monotone bass line which blends with Fiora's voice so perfectly. It has mellow build ups and drops, just the right trance energy you need and one of my favourite tracks to listen to while running or training.
