Review:

		9/10
		Artist: Ad Inferna Title: Heroine (Revisited Trance Und Tanz) Format: Digital CD Label: Ionium Records Genre: Electronic, Trance Release date: May 3, 2010

Before the release of the new Ad Inferna album “DSM”, set to be released in fall of 2010, the band releases this digital-only collection of remixes from band such as Colony 5, Supreme Court and C-Lekktor. Mastered by wellknown Kolja aka Soman, this release includes a total of 12 tracks. Enough with the chit-chat, give me some music! All the original version is included on their latest studio album “Trance N Dance”.

This release starts out slow with the atmospheric “Injektion” and invites you to this club attack before the ride really begins with “Suicide Girl”, in the shape of an Heroine Remix. The track is fast-paced with heavy beats and a highly addictive sound structure of electronic elements. This theme is followed through the entire album and the title clearly states what to expect. It’s packed with striking melodies just as “Trance N Dance” but with heavier beats. Though, all guitars are drastically dropped or removed completely compared to the album version which I think makes a better approach. Note that the included remix of the Visage-classic “Fade To Grey” is presented in a much more enjoyable version this time.

Their music derives from so many different styles that makes it difficult to put them to only one style, like Electronic, Trance, EBM, Futurepop or even Industrial and Gothic, and I don’t see anything wrong with that. Why should any artist be put in a box? My conclusion is that this release has a much greater impact on me then the album. It’s an excellent release with many club-smashers and infectious melodies that will for sure make you wanna move your feets.
