Ben Gold – Kingdoms
Any trance fan knows that Ben Gold has been a staple in the scene for a while now. Gold’s tracks often appear on radio shows and in high profile live sets. Trance legends Above and Beyond and Armin van Buuren regularly feature his music, just to name a couple. Gold associates most notably with the Who’s Afraid of 138? movement, creating dynamic progressive trance to rival the best in the business. With over ten years of experience playing and producing trance hits with the biggest names in music, Ben Gold has certainly made a name for himself. And his highly anticipated track, ‘Kingdoms‘ definitely fits into the sound he has created for himself.
Known for his fast-paced and high energy sets, Ben Gold delivers the goods in his newest release. This big room progressive trance tune embodies the feeling of a huge stadium full of fans dancing to the beat. Utilizing a high, full sounding synth line and long, steady build-ups, Gold continually pushes the momentum of the music forwards. A high BPM and an airy melodic breakdown give ‘Kingdoms’ the signature progressive trance feel that Gold is so well known for.
‘Kingdoms’ debuts on Armind Records, a select branch of the larger Armada label headed by Armin Van Buuren. Armind’s reputation for high caliber tracks is no secret. Armin releases all of his own productions under the Armind branch. And those who join its ranks do not get there by accident. According to their blurb on the Armada website, the powerhouse label sees Ben Gold as “one of the most forward-thinking and unique trance producers in the world.” ‘Kingdoms’ definitely supports that train of thought.
