Ferry Corsten - WKND
For Planet Trance the prospect of a new Ferry Corsten artist album is one of those cherished, can't-come-along-quick-enough happenings. So when we heard that 'WKND' was on final approach, expectations began to run mighty high around these parts. With the album safely in the T.I. ROM drive, we immediately set about kicking the tyres and getting under the hood (metaphorically speaking) of Ferry's fourth... More
Roger Shah & Sian Kosheen - Shine
Last year Roger Shah reloaded the 10-year-old clubland classic 'Hide U' with mighty impressive results. Some tracks are near impossible to reimagine with anyone other than the original vocalist in front of the mic - 'Hide U' being a first class example. Having hooked up with Sian Kosheen, Roger proceeded to turn the track into... More
Kyau & Albert
15 Years The Album
To crown their decade-and-a-half-long audio-union, Kyau & Albert have summoned something suitably commemorative for the occasion. Through the power of the remix, on the 12th of March their '15 Years - The Album' will revisit some of the numerous highs their production career has generated to date... More
Lisa Lashes
Step forward ladies! That was the message emanating from Armin van Buuren's HQ at the start of this month. The scene overlord is spearheading a drive to get 15% of DJ Mag's Top 100 made up of female spinners by 2013.

Marcel Woods
Open All Hours
If you're venturing through EDM's wilder, lesser-charted lands this month, make time for a pit stop at Marcel Woods' new audio enterprise. Those of an imaginative disposition should find themselves well accommodated! On 'Open All Hours' he connects the long-missing musical link between the artist long-player and remix album... More
Richard Durand vs The World
You might find it curious to know that if you’re a A-list producer its now considered no longer enough to go into the studio, write some tracks and release them as an album. These days you need an extra angle, a bit more of an edge... More
Paul van Dyk
'VONYC Sessions 2011'
It’s now just as much a part of this time of year as shopping frenzies, fairy lights and excessive eating! Paul van Dyk’s seasonal VONYC Sessions mix 'salutation' is heading towards shop shelves and download stores at breakneck pace... More
Ferry Corsten '20 years'
Cutting edges and thinking forward has been the methodology of choice throughout Ferry Corsten’s career - one that’s now spanned an incredible two decades. An artist pausing to think reflectively after that length of time spent as a vanguard of any scene is reasonable enough. How to celebrate a retrospective album in a state-of-the art fashion though?
