Steve Kaetzel presents "Black Opal EP"



Steve Kaetzel, who already enjoys a good career as a music composer and sound designer for film and video games, presents his debut on our Songbird imprint with this brilliant two track EP. The titles, "Black Opal" and "Something About This", represent Steve's versatility as a producer of electronic dance music.

The first track, "Black Opal," is a fizzing and incredibly melodic trancer with a nod and a wink to the good classics from back in the days, offering a beautifully solemn break. Excellent for vast daytime sets and party people in beach outfits. For the second cut, Steve decided to come up with a much tougher setup for "Something About This." Here we are definitely dealing what a harder tech trance slammer for the DJs who'd like to kick ass during their late night performances. Prepare yourself for a relentless thumping theme and a great, ripping break.

Make sure to get this Steve Kaetzel EP and prepare up your track list!

"Certainly, an artist with such a strong background is impossible not to come with something really exceptional. Steve Kaetzel EP on Songbird contains two very different tracks serving totally different purposes. Black Opal is mysterious and unique the kind of the track that melts in one hybrid the best from the trance and progressive house genres and delivering an outstanding track that can stand beautifully in trance and prog sets and certainly will be the outstanding track of the night. Just listen carefully the amazing symphonic break and the various effects coming and going and your mind will travel miles away instantly. On the other hand, something about this rocks the boat as it is harder and ready for peak time playing on any tech trance set. Vocal samples, grungy dirty basslines and distorted sounds to drive berserk the clubgoers. Steve opens our hunger for more releases and we would love to see him with even more tracks. He Gots the talent!" -- Dimitri Kechagias, 1Mix Radio
