Today's 35-50 year old generation grew up in a similar style. Many of us dreamed that, in addition to listening, one day we might also write similar things. This is a very big journey. He also dreamed these things, but he did.
For almost 8 minutes I have felt that again, like I was one of those many souls dancing, jumping, singing and feeling free. We may not have that anymore, but this magic will be always inside of us. Don't try to understand it, it's just music, and it keep us alive.
I'd say the ASOT 1000 anthem is still a great track, even if it does sound like a successor to Status Excessu D (though that can be arguably convey a semblance of continuity). It's an apples to oranges thing as both this and the ASOT 1000 anthem are stellar tracks with different energies yet similar trancey vibes, and I'd gladly dance my heart out to both. That said, I can look forward to this track dropping at the ASOT 1000 celebration, would be more than happy to hear it on the 138 stage, or maybe even on the mainstage. The future of trance looks bright, even through trying times.
@@BeatLounge Well said, and I'd agree on that point. Personally I'd consider this and the official ASOT 1000 anthem as spiritual twins, Armin's track being soulful and euphoric, and showcasing his classical influences, Will's track bringing in the power and energy to make crowds dance and breathe life to a new breed of trance
Over time it makes sense why. This just a theory. Trance is designed for an individual journey having a lot to do with looking inward. While that is great for creating more passion and a connection with the music itself. It isn't as effective in getting people to look outward with the focus on socializing. At the cost of a possibly weaker direct bond to the music, effective mainstream music serves its purpose as great background noise while people focus more on partying and socializing. This builds a stronger group social focus and thus brings in more party goers, more profit, and more votes. It's not a function of the quality of Atkinson's music, it's a function of the hypnotic anti social nature of trance at least when it's really good. That's when trance lives up to its name. A person getting hypnotized isn't necessarily having a bunch of other people distracting him or her. They are one person zoned in the moment. As deep an experience as that sounds compared to a random night out with friends and Martin Garrix sing along in the background, it only represents one vote on dj mag. Basically when it comes to this kind of music it's not designed to attract more people as effective as possible. It's genrally designed for the person taking the time to listen in and get lost. Individualism is a strong theme in trance music. While mainstream music drives more on collectivist values
Will Atkinson is one of my favourites, but the likes of Paul Van Dyk Guiseppie Ottaviani Ferry Corsten Bryan Kearney John O'Callaghan John Askew Aly & Fila and loads more are all well and truly keeping the trance scene alive and well too!
34 here, started listening to Trance in 2011 and haven't looked back ever since! And yes, I've listened to the classics that were released before 2011 :) my favorites are the Uplifting/Orchestral Trance tunes, that really set this genre apart from others. For example: many from SoundLift- Honor, Victorious, Live from above, Lenda, Nakhti, One Day. Also, Mhammed El Alami, illitheas, Johannes Fischer- Breath of Life, and New Rise. Also, New World - Ushio. Just to name a few :) You'll love my UOE Trance play list!
What a Tune smashed it, this will be playing every where this year. Massive smile on my face. Just wish I could jump in that video and party like it’s 1999
Outstanding Will absolutely nailed it track and video. So many friends in this video and memories from at least 2 places Luminosity and Asot Utrecht. And the rest of the people(from places other than Europe) they are just friends I haven't met yet.
If it were not for trance music my head would be in the gutter. Best cure for any depression setting in at all!! Tunes on, earphones in and eyes closed and just drift away. Keep the rave alive!!
For 7:24 i felt like dancing free in a spectacular Rave. Incredibly emotional and full of hope, atm the best i heard in January together with ASOT 1000 Anthem by Armin. Thank you for keep Trance the best genre ever. WE WILL DANCE TOGETHER AGAIN
This track is absolutely phenomenal it has great balance and quality rhythm for all clubbers out there it’s also giving people a lift of high spirit through the most difficult times with this co-vid pandemic going on keep these tunes coming from mr Colin Corcoran high street royal mile Edinburgh 👍🏻🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴👍🏻
Proper moving forward this one, That is in NRG, This is some DJ, I mean in England + Scotland Really have some serious people who want to make the world DANCE. The end
We will dance again ♥️
Dear Will, when will "Sun Slip" be released?
Sincerely
A "Sun Slip" addicted since 2014.
@@ExDuelist Yeah, and Edge of Forever also
🥲
o for sure and you will play this brilliant masterpiece
That last line melt my heart ♥
This is not a track, this, is a fucking journey.

Will Atkinson? More like Will ATKINSANE 🔥
composition.... "What a piece of art" 👏👏👏

we 're gonna hve this soon again
Wow. 40 years old and this has me buzzing like I was back in the 90s. Class track. Keeping trance alive Will. Top man.
This track is soooo good!
That is superb. That break down is everything. The energy in this track is incredible
This should have been the ASOT Anthem.

@@hirokiree1051 I like the depth of the analysis tbh
Heh, just posted comment and see similar by you))
Pretty sure this is gonna be Tune of the Year for 2021. So amazing Will!!!
I've still got 11 months ;)
@@willatkinsonmusic haha, yeah no doubt, can't wait to see what 2021's gonna bring, lots to look forward to!!!
@Michael Guest telescope was super good!!!
Not a chance, problem with tracks released in january is everyone forgets them when a whole year passes by...
I think Haliene and Emery’s ‘Saving Light’ tells us that the greatness of the track supersedes the release date!
One of the best tracks I have ever heard.
i dont know why this guy is not in top 10 dj mag....very awsme music he produces...he deserves the recognition
only crap edm in the top 10 xD

@@brandonvillatuya9539 Half a gram of mdma and the same amount of amphetamine and get totally lost in the music that's my style.
Full of life, light and hope for the future!
Excellent job! Bravo Will!)
Soo inspiring if you can multiply many genres I want to be open like that in music making.
Alright Will,
I'm convinced now.
The future of Scottish Trance music is in good hands.
Beautiful song, thanks Will!
