Estiva

It has been a while since I have been on any level of my trance game, so I thought I would attempt to step that up a notch by sharing with you all this awesome Dutch producer known as Estiva.



Trance has always been a fickle genre for me. It is hard for me to find artists that I really like and that always put out good tracks. However, I do seem to think Estiva is one of those artists. I can go onto his SoundCloud or Spotify and not have to skip a single song. That is impressive to me because he has songs up from 2008. Electronic music has changed dramatically since then, yet his old tracks still sound very current. He also does a great job at not having songs that all the sound the same while also not having any weird tracks that make you raise an eyebrow in question of his producing ability.

First lets start with one of his most recent original works. Hippodrop is the Estiva song that first caught my eye. I have always liked when trance producers incorporate some ragey elements into their music. This track has a solid trance sound, but then morphs into a peak-time party song when the drop comes in to get the crowd moving. Check it out below!


Here is one of his older tracks that I can't stop listening too. This one's called Festival. I love the massively euphoric synths that remind me of sunrise at EDC Las Vegas. Such a good song to come down to. Take a listen to this one below.


Lastly I wanted to show off his remixing ability. Over the years he has put his spin on many different tracks, but I don't think he has done a better job on any of them as he did on Change The World by Daniel Kandi and Sarah Russell. This song has it all. It has those super uplifting trance chords that make you wanna scream how much you love life at the top of your lungs, then.. right as your panting for breath from all the screaming, out of nowhere comes the rage-tastic second wind that will get you GOING! Check out this excellent remix below.


It's fun to be a trance-vestite every now and then! Now go and enjoy it! <3
