Dance Party

Silver Tube is yet another trance or electro dance music sensation from Latvia. Dance Party is the new album of this band. It was released in Tsvet Records in a special format. One of the numbers of the Silver Tube album, ‘Turn Around’, has already created waves on the internet, thanks to the various online music stations. ‘Turn Around’ is a fast and foot-tapping number, with exquisite perfect music arrangement. The initial tempo is maintained throughout the song without making it monotonous. A variety of instruments and sounds are employed to create an extravagant atmosphere of captivating music. If this number does not make you gyrate your hips in stylish rhythms, nothing ever will. Trance music has come a long way since its origin as an improvised version of German techno music. The customary use of rolling bass and breathless keyboard sounds is still very much part of the genre. But it has also borrowed from various other genres and musical cultures from across the world. The end result often is brand new music albums with stunning originality, as is evident from the new album of Silver Tube. The new breed of trance music (or techno or electro music - whatever you prefer to call it) is ideal for discos in party halls as well as for the reading room of your house. Almost all the numbers start with a bang, with high energy music. So, the album is perfect for injecting energy into any dance club atmosphere. However, Silver Tube’s Dance Party is not only about high octane percussions and fast-moving keyboard innovations. The numbers in the album provide the traditional hypnotizing effect of techno music. Midway through most of the numbers in the album, when you would be submerged in the ocean of fast and foot-tapping music, a stream of melodious instrumental music would feed your senses. It surprises you and makes you expect more of such things. You will not be disappointed. One can categorize this kind of soothing and pleasant music to what is now known as melodic trance. Surprisingly for a dance album, this album offers a variety of numbers, each sparkling with vivid textures of music from a combination of instruments. The album has something for everybody and for every occasion. One thing common perhaps with all the numbers is the faultless arrangement of background music. The musical artistry behind each number is simply amazing. It is a fact that does not go unnoticed even when you are busy dancing to the tunes of the album. Like several other albums in the techno or trance genre, Silver Tube’s Dance Party also creates a familiar-but-can’t-figure-out-what kind of feeling in the listener’s mind. Perhaps most of the great works of art invoke this kind of a feeling. It simply touches the thinking mind and inspires the hidden love for cosmic music that had been coded on to our genes by nature.
