Album Review: "Sun" by Mar She & Dj TH
Alright, let’s talk about Sun, the 2015 trance banger from Mar She & Dj TH. Released under Redux Red in Germany, this album is a solid ride through the world of electronic music, leaning heavy on Trance and Progressive Trance vibes. If you’re into tracks that make you feel like you're floating while still keeping your feet moving, this one's for you.
First off, the tracklist isn’t huge, but it doesn’t need to be. It’s all about remixes and variations of “Sun,” which honestly works better than you’d think. You get five versions—each bringing something different to the table. But if I had to pick two that stuck with me, I’d go with “Sun (ASKII Remix)” and “Sun (Original Mix).”
The ASKII Remix? Man, this thing hits hard. It starts off kinda dreamy, with these soft pads that pull you in slow, almost like sinking into a warm bath. Then BAM—it drops into this pulsing beat that just grabs hold of you. The energy ramps up so smoothly, you don’t even realize how hyped you are until you’re already nodding your head like crazy. What makes it memorable is how layered it feels; there’s always some little sound or tweak happening in the background that keeps things fresh. Like, you can listen to it five times and still catch something new. That’s rare these days when most tracks feel like they’re over before they begin.
Then there’s the Original Mix. This version feels stripped-back compared to the remixes, but don’t let that fool you—it packs a punch too. There’s this rawness to it, like the artists were just vibing out in the studio and nailed it on the first try. The melody has this uplifting vibe, super classic trance stuff, but it never gets cheesy. Instead, it’s the kind of track that makes you wanna close your eyes and lose yourself for a bit. Perfect for those late-night drives or zoning out after a long day.
Now, full disclosure—I didn’t expect much at first. Five versions of the same song? Sounds kinda lazy, right? But here’s the twist: each remix adds its own flavor without straying too far from the core vibe. Even the Purple Stories Remix throws in some quirky elements that could’ve gone wrong but somehow work. It’s like ordering a burger and realizing every topping was chosen with care—you might not notice each piece, but together? Chef’s kiss.
Looking back, what strikes me most about Sun is how timeless it feels. Sure, it came out in 2015, but good trance doesn’t age—it evolves. Listening now, it still holds up against newer releases, which says a lot about the craftsmanship behind it. Also, fun fact: I once played the ASKII Remix during a house party, and someone asked if it was an old Armin van Buuren track. Take that however you want, but I’m calling it a win.
So yeah, give Sun a spin if you haven’t yet. Whether you’re a die-hard trance fan or just looking for something chill but energetic, it’s worth your time. And hey, maybe blast it next time you clean your room—it’ll make vacuuming feel less soul-crushing. Trust me on that one.
