Richard Durand Begins His Search For Sunrise

21:36 - April 8, 2010

© Black Hole Recordings After yesterdays announcement by Tiesto that he is to end his involvement in the 'In Search of Sunrise' series Black Hole Recordings today announce Richard Durand will take over the reigns for volume number eight...

As Tiesto's ship drifts away from Black Hole Recordings there is no shortage of replacements to pick from in the talent pool to fill his boots. The end is not so for their immensely successful 'In Search of Sunrise' series after Tiesto announced he was to end his involvement in a series which he pioneered to be one of the most privileged electronic treasures in the compilation market. They will be keeping the series alive and have selected the hugely talented Richard Durand to mix together volume number eight. He is an artist who has featured on the label over the past few years with great success and Black Hole can be confident the series is in safe hands.

Our freinds over at Trance International first got wind of this in Miami from the Black Hole Recordings guys who I'm sure were just waiting for the right time to announce Richard Durand as the new sunrise searcher.

The initial discussion at Black Hole Recordings offices started by the water-cooler and ultimately moved into the label’s main meeting room (large music-industry-sized table fitted as standard!). With Tiësto ready to pass over the ‘In Search Of Sunrise’ controls, the question on the table was: who would take over as the new mixer and creative compiler of the series? Many a cup of strong black coffee was drunk and everyone, office-wide was canvassed for their thoughts. The outcome though (rather un-dramatically!) was undivided.

From that point, events took a turn for the mischievous…
Black Hole teased & tweeted, they laid false trails and floated elaborate (alright, misleading!) ‘clues’. All of which were designed to keep everyone guessing and maybe even put you off the scent altogether… Until, of course the time was right.

It was just around that time that we bumped into them in Miami and (really, bless ‘em!) they dropped the whole exclusive straight into Trance International’s lap! We didn’t even get to buy them a beer.

The answer you’re all after is actually a completely organic one, and proves the most intuitive of moves forward for ISOS.

Richard Durand seemed to have a substantial presence on the scene back before many of us knew what he looked like, let alone played & produced. One minute he wasn’t there, the next he was everywhere. This was down, to quite some great degree to the aforementioned world’s former no.1 regularly marking him out as the new talent to watch. With almost head-spinning, neck-twisting speed, he came good on Tiësto’s early affirmations.

Floor-slaying remixes were followed by highly imaginative singles and then in 2009 an album that kicked speaker-ass and endorsed his entire career to-date. In terms of sheer consistency of quality, he has very few peers. Hearing him guide ISOS into the next decade, imprinting his own intrinsic audio-signature onto the series will be something that every right-thinking trance-head will need to hear. So those now watching and waiting to see what the South African edition of the series will bring, well speculate on (until May anyway). But gambling against Richard carrying it off? We wouldn’t bet against it for all the coffee in Holland.

TRANCE INTERNATIONAL COMPETITION

It's by no means the end of the road for the series but just a turn off into a new direction, South Africa to be exact for volume number eight, which continues the country theme for its eight edition. The album is penned in for a May release but Trance International have TEN copies to give away. The competition is quite a simple one, just mail the team with why you want a copy of 'In Search of Sunrise' and keep you fingers crossed. A deep love and passion for Trance music is a basic must so get creative with your application.

Release Date: May
