Craig Steven - Anna

Review by Robson Parma

Alright, let’s dive into Anna by Craig Steven—this little gem from 2013 that still hits the spot if you’re into those euphoric, trancey vibes. Released under Trance All-Stars Records outta the Czech Republic, this album is straight fire for anyone who digs progressive trance with a twist. It’s not trying to reinvent the wheel, but man, does it spin that wheel smoothly. First off, the tracklist ain’t huge, just three versions of “Anna,” but each one brings something different to the table. The OG mix (Anna (Original Mix)) is where it all starts, and honestly? It’s kinda unforgettable. There’s this build-up that sneaks up on ya—it doesn’t rush, just lets the synths swell until you’re like, “Oh yeah, we’re doing this now.” And when the drop hits? Pure goosebumps. It’s simple but effective, the kind of tune that makes you wanna close your eyes and pretend you're at some festival in Prague or whatever. Then there’s Anna (LTN’s Deep Mix)—this one flips the script a bit. LTN takes the original and gives it more of a chill, deeper vibe. It’s less about the big moments and more about keeping you locked in this hypnotic groove. I remember spinning this late at night when I couldn’t sleep, and it was perfect for zoning out. Like, it’s not necessarily better than the original, but it shows how versatile the base track is. You can go full-on festival banger or dial it back to something smoother, and both work. The third track, Anna (Angel Ace Remix), is solid too, though it didn’t stick with me as much as the other two. Still worth a listen if you’re digging the overall vibe, though. What’s wild about this album is how it came out almost a decade ago, yet it feels timeless. Trance music sometimes gets accused of being formulaic, but Craig Steven pulls it off without sounding stale. Maybe it’s because he keeps things emotional without overdoing it. Or maybe it’s just the magic of a good melody paired with thumping beats. Anyway, here’s the random thought to wrap this up: listening to Anna kinda reminds me of those old-school MP3 players people used to carry around. You know, before Spotify took over? Like, imagine finding this tucked away in some forgotten playlist—you’d hit play, and suddenly you’re transported to another headspace. Feels like an accidental time capsule, which is pretty cool if you think about it.
