    That "solarstone guitar" is, to me, something nostalgic in itself. When I hear it, i immediately feel like it's summertime. GOAT

    I was a trance DJ in the 90s and remember hearing this record and being blown away by it, wondering who the wizard was who'd come up with this; it stood out so much from everything else. Props to Rich for staying true to the pure sound, I felt exactly the same way when it suddenly became 'uncool'. Good on him.

    Late 90s / early 00s, the time of trance. Anybody who knows trance, knows that this is one of a handful of defining tracks, from that era. Absolutely belter that sounds as fresh today as it did 20 years ago. Every time i drop this, it takes me back 20 years and has the ability to make me tear up. Solarstone, I salute you, will go down in time as one of the all time classics.

    My wife and I had the Ambient Dub mix of Seven Cities playing when we got married and were signing the register. It’s such a loved-up track and we’re still happily married 24 years later. It still brings a tear of happiness to my eye when I hear it.

    This really is one of the greatest Trance anthems to have ever been made.
    It’s got everything a Trance song needs to be remembered. It’s Pure Uplifting, Emotional and the Synths are absolutely euphoric.
    I always think that when these kind of songs are made that there’s more at work than just a person thinking. It’s like the Universe is gifting the planet with something that will be remembered as time goes on.
    What a feeling this must have been to have made this yourself and have listened to this for the first time.
    My masterpiece is Complete 🙌🏻

      People who call him mainstream are trying to put him in a bad light.

      I agree with you. It's a unique way to find names for songs. It now answers my question why I never found a music video featuring perhaps Richard's top 7 favorite cities. That's where I thought maybe he came up with the name. lol

    "You should be proud of what makes you feel good." That's the damn truth. It's also why trance is timeless. Thanks for this. I love his take on ghost producing as well, and couldn't agree more. As a budding producer I still haven't gotten what I want, but I could never hand that vision over to someone else then take credit for it. What an amazing interview. I've learned more in five interviews than with any production masterclass. Because these answered questions confirm my own intuition about the process. Thanks Twan!

    @ohthatpaul 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I love this track. What makes it for me is the vocal. It sounds as if a chorus of human voices is singing in harmony a simple four-syllable refrain, in a language that seems like Ursula Le Guin's Old Speech in her Earthsea series, familiar, on the verge of being able to be understood, and having a power to change the world. Sounding like but not the English words "Because the night." But as if sung by a tribe of people, mostly female, standing rooted in a nature or a primeval earth, an elysium, untouchable by our modern depravity. The essential beauty of Solarstone's original track is enhanced by ambient interpretation but also survives, robustly, overblown Armin Van Burrin-esque Dutch excesses. Solarstone's gift to the world.

    I have huge respect for Rich. There's a memory i have from Blackpool in 2008 he was playing at The Syndicate, and his set was brilliant, he played a remix of Seven Cities i still don't know what it is! And like a true enthusiast of trance that he is, and deffo not an untouchable arsehole like some "BIG" djs, after his set and Aly&Fila came on after him, he just came into the crowd to enjoy their set like the rest of us! I follow his Pure Trance movement. And he along with Aly & Fila are my main sources of trance today since my original favs Above & Beyond and Armin sold out!

    Amazing! Always noticed the similarities between Seven Cities and Mysteryland. Love the fact that the lead sound from the track was a "crappy guitar sample".

    What an absolute hero. I just wish there was a vinyl issue of Pure Trance 7 like with the sixth. Instant purchase.

    Love Seven Cities, the melodies in the song is amazing and so beautiful. The Pure Mix of Seven Cities is one of my favourite versions to play loud on a pair of big speakers that I got and it sounds amazing. Do you like the Pure Mix of Seven Cities?
