Happy Birthday Solarstone!
Richard Mowatt aka Solarstone is responsible for some of the biggest classics in trance history.
The UK producer/DJ didn’t only bring us the seminal classics ‘Solarcoaster’, ‘Like A Waterfall’ and ‘Jump The Next Train’ plus more recent anthems ‘The Spell’, ‘Fireisland’ & ‘Jewel’; he’s also one of the masterminds (together with Andy Bury) behind ‘Seven Cities’ – an all-time favourite that won’t fade anytime soon.
Over the years Solarstone has always maintained a keen balance between original production tracks and remix works and to celebrate his Birthday, we’ve put together 10 Solarstone remixes all pure trance lovers must hear. See below.

On remix duties, Solarstone provides a peak-time rework of ‘Anywhere With You’ with his trademark ‘Pure Mix’.

The UK legend keeps things in the trance corner with his version of ‘Still’
His remix of ‘Unity’ has all the hallmarks of that classic Solarstone sound we all know and love.
Solarstone’s ‘Pure Mix’ was borne following a conversation between Rich Solarstone & Sied, where the former praised the latter’s back-to-basics approach to the track, pleading the opportunity to give it the Solarstone once-over.
