Marc de Simon – New Album "Salvation in Trance 2011" available in Fall
2011-10-07
The year is 2011 A.D. and "Salvation In Trance 2011" - the fourth album of the dance music producer Marc de Simon - is completed after a whole year of intensive work. This album is not just a new release within the series "Salvation In Trance", it is also a milestone and further step of development in the musical career of this young artist. The previous album, which is the foundation to the series "Salvation In Trance", has caused lots of attention and positive feedback of reknowned DJs and radio stations already. This new album in 2011, which is released on Port-au-Trance Recordings, is a consequent further development of Marc de Simon's musical style, which is now more grown-up in terms of sound, arrangement and stylistic elements. There's a clear influence of high-level international trance sounds and productions, which borrows also elements of the genres house and electro. It is intended by the artist Marc de Simon, that exactly this hot mixture of trance, house, and electro sounds also acts as a precursor for upcoming releases in 2012.

Marc de Simon – New Album "Salvation in Trance" Out Now!!!
2010-07-23
Almost exactly one year after the release of Marc de Simon's previous album "A-Life" the moment has come: On July 27th, 2010 Marc de Simon is releasing his third long player "Salvation in Trance" on the label Port-au-Trance Recordings.

The new album contains 14 cutting-edge tracks in a modern trance sound, which are similar to a kind of "salvation" due to their freshness – as the release title "Salvation in Trance" already points out. It's like everybody has been waiting, that someone will come an re-invent trance. All this has been achieved by Marc de Simon without forgetting his typical style through stunning melodic elements, progressive tracks with the potential to become big hymns, and balearic-dreamy elements.

Each one of these brand-new tracks, e.g. "Stars of Scandinavia", "Euphoria" or "Reversal of Fortune" can be recognized clearly and instantly when heard as a production by Marc de Simon. The 2010 makeovers of his greatest hits "Rainbow Sky", "Fall And Tears" or "Wings" and "China" as well top-off this album, and they are catapulting his hits into the next decade of the 21st century.

Besides a conclusive overall concept for the album itself, the tracklisting has been adjusted very carefully for a perfect flow while listening. The album "Salvation in Trance" is a proof of the constant further development of the artist Marc de Simon, and from the current point of view it is certainly the best work ever created by Marc de Simon so far.
