Pierre Pienaar, to some better known as P.H.A.T.T. picked up the reins as Head of Nukleuz’s coveted Green label, the traditional home of Trance and acts such as Mauro Picotto, Alphazone, Mario Piu, Joy Kitikonti, CRW in 2007 and hasn’t looked back since. Going from strength to strength Pierre has created a large following of fans and high level DJ supporters with his unique brand of high quality, melodic and uplifting trance.
“The Way” sees Pierre Pienaar slip into his Melodia alias to follow up his first track of 2010 “Nothing Else” (inc Ian Betts Remix) and his Trance Adrenaline 2 album. This is a chilled prog house / trance track which features a smooth vibe and lovely guitars. On remix duties is Clarks & Setrise. Setrise has been on fire recently releasing dancefloor shaking tracks and remixes lately on Spinnin, Joyride and SPX and together with Eddy Clarks he delivers a top class effort once again.
Melodia “The Way” is available now upfront and exclusive on AudioJelly 2 weeks prior to it’s full release!
