1. Destination Unknown (09:06)

If you don't know Optiloop, perhaps there other project 'Loopstep' rings a bell. So far they released some great tracks with both projects and judging from just about all there releases, this is truly a very original style of progressive trance. An amazing track worth mentioning by Optiloop is 'Gang N Stan', released on Carrots & Stick. With there Loopstep project they have made some awesome remixes, The Journey (Motion Drive) and Circles (Progenitor) are some perfect examples of what these guys are capable of.

 

It's definitely not the basic stuff, they went out of there way to create something new and it evolved in to something sounding very slick and crispy. There's always a lot of speed in there work and both of these tracks are no different. The first track Destination Unknown starts of with energetic rolling baselines, supported by fantastic atmospheric effects. It only gets better and more intense during the song. This Greek duo truly knows how to keep the best for last and I can proudly say that this track really carried me away.

 

Next is Prime Level and after hearing the first track, one would strongly doubt if it could get any better then that. It starts of very slick and tight once again, the Optiloop and Loopstep signature so to say. All effects are timed just right with simple yet effective touches during the whole song, while the beat remains constant. There cannot be anything found wrong with this track in my opinion. Everything is thought about and the hypnotic vibe I'm getting from this one is priceless.

 

2 tracks that really impressed me. I can recommend this to anyone who thinks all progressive sounds the same. Check this EP out, get in to full relaxation mode, give it a good listen and I would say your opinion is changed quickly.
