This is the first EP release of the forthcoming debut album “Zest” from Ignite Digital – the UK based Hard Dance/Hard Trance label run by DJ/Producer Simon Qudos. This EP sees Brisbane based Luke S team up with one of our favourite UK producers, Nick Squires – better known as SQ. After many hours locked in the studio, these two have produced two impressive tunes aimed to devastate the dance floor.

“Relentless” is an out and out solid hard trancer driven by a powerful kick drum and complimenting rolling bassline – plenty of subtle key changes and enough twists and turns to keep you hoping for more!

“Red & Blue” sees the boys take it up a notch and the result is a tune that would easily bridge hard trance and hard house – elements of old skool with a plenty here, with a well used 303, rave FX and a vocal sample from The Matrix that fits the tune perfectly and makes it one to remember long after you’ve left the dance floor!

You can here both of these tracks in my recent Hard Acid Trance Mix, and watch for the Zest album from Ignite Digital to be released on Nov 11, 2010 with digital release following up in December.

What a deadly show! You guys helped with the tracklist (join the Facebook page if you don’t know what I’m talking about) and you said you wanted it dark – and so here it is!

I’m listening to the first third of this weeks podcast right now and watching Metrotown pass by while I ride the train through the blue sky on my way back from another busy day that started off with three hours of dentistry this morning. So now you get why this week’s show is untitled. I could have called it the Froster.ca launch show, but that seemed a little too corporate. Yeah – I do have a day job, and this week I was right in the middle of it during the show. How is that possible, given that the show airs from 10pm – Midnight in my timezone? Well, let’s just say I’m a dedicated employee that is lucky enough to work with some pretty dedicated people.

Alright, so none of that really has to do with anything musical. What’s on the decks this week? I’m still well into my PsyTrance kick. Steve played some of the wonkiest, most twisted trance I’ve ever heard (sorry, I wasn’t able to capture the track list), and Caddyshack dropped a fine mix of old-made-new epic trance.

Just before the show this week I discovered two albums worth picking up. Usually I only like one or two tracks off an album, but these two are fantastic all the way through. The first feature album is “Love Machine” by a group called Save the Robot. Save the Robot is made up of Ari Linker (also known as Alien Project) and Ido Liran (also known as Quadra). It’s not surprising since I discovered Alien Project a few weeks ago after falling in love with their “Activation Portal” album, and along the way I found a few tracks by Quadra that were equally rich. I can only hope we see/hear more from these guys!

The second album featured is by non other than Quadra. After the first few tracks that caught my interest, IU went looking for more and found their “Voice of Reason” album. We live in the era of music download sites like iTunes and Track it Down, where you can pick and choose which songs you want for as low as 99 cents – so I know an album has to be exceptional when I fork out for the whole damn thing!

So I’m just the first third of this week’s mix. Caddyshack and Steve Krueger lay down breaks and deep trance sets to make it a 3 hour show this week. If you like the show, don’t just download – subscribe in iTunes – it looks good in the radio station stats!
