Orkidea & Activa – Z21 (Original Mix)
Black Hole Recording’s next release is by two accomplished trance producers in Orkidea and Activa. Their impressive song titled “Z21” dropped into something that I was not prepared for at all. The Finnish Orkidea, also known as Tapio Hakanen, and the British Activa, whose name is Rob Stevenson, give us a bit of psytrance with a clean pounding bass line.
The press release describes the track better than I can, so here it is:
“Orkidea’s retro-futuristics meets underground hero Activa’s storm-force production ethics. Z21 is an enigma, wrapped in a mystery… and delivered as a code! Together, Orkidea & Activa collude to deliver speaker-shuttling, empyrean harmonics, heavy-drama drums, rolling psy-lined acid bubble and an Olympic-sized leadline.”
The single from Orkidea’s “Harmonia” album as been supported by Armin van Buuren, Solarstone, Photographer, Mark Sherry, Johan Gielen, Daniel Kandi, and more.
