Divided Kingdom
'Divided Kingdom' by Sunset Heat, the latest release on Pulsar Recordings, is a powerful and emotional tune that will send the listeners on yet another trip into the world of trance. This single is very energetic from the beginning, with a rolling bass that provides a slow build-up, leading into a repetitive, hypnotizing loop that moves steadily into the breakdown. From there, a beautiful piano melody continues the journey, with an orchestral accompaniment that provides an emotional backdrop, followed by an intense uplift that teases the listeners' feelings. Blue Tente's Uplifting Remix starts with a thinner texture compared to the original version, enabling the piano to take the lead at the beginning. But as the bass and melodic loop rise slowly, the sounds merge to turn this single into a classic uplifting tune. The breakdown in this version is a lot more emotional, followed by a rapid uplift that leads right back to the soft, tranquil melody that lingers on till the very end. In Alexis Mixail's remix, the percussion builds up slowly, followed by a much faster melodic loop, and echoing sounds that pick up as the melody fades away. This version is more progressive, with a slower tempo and a structure that strays away from the traditional shape of trance tracks.
