Temple One
Santiago
Pure Trance Recordings
Ciaran McAuley’s ‘Maria’ might be slightly fresher to PTR release schedule, but ‘Santiago’ from Temple One tips the quality scales by a hair. Brilliant, rapacious trance wrapping aside, there’s a chilled elegance to the strings in its break — one that materially oozes confidence in its knowing ability to charm. Add to that a extravagantly reclined ‘Autumn Mix’ from Slam Duck and ‘Santiago’ starts to become a whole lot of essential.
