It all started back in 2006. Petri Alanko aka Lowland, was booked to play club classics on the piano at the 10th anniversary party of Helsinki’s beloved Club Unity. But instead of sticking to the original plan, Lowland took it a step further. He created orchestral backings to the tracks and produced a touching performance, giving birth to a much bigger dream. The versions went viral on the web, got picked up by Dutch DJ/producer Armin van Buuren and were turned into two magical ‘Classical Trancelations’ albums, released in 2008 and 2015. And now, ‘Classical Trancelations 3’ has arrived…
A live registration of 2018’s Classical Trancelations in Concert event in Finland, ‘Classical Trancelations 3’ offers up the same orchestral interpretations that reimagined some of the biggest electronic music classics for a crowd of over 8500 strong. Including new, mouthwatering versions of tracks such as Rank 1’s ‘Airwave’, Chicane’s ‘Saltwater’, Daft Punk’s ‘Get Lucky’, Darude’s ‘Sandstorm’ and even Pendulum’s ‘The Island’, this third album installment offers up some of the most iconic songs to date, all performed live by Lowland, Helsinki Philharmonic Orchestra and Ahjo choir with many other talented musicians and conductor Eero Lehtimäki.
The dream is alive and bigger than ever before, and here to show us once again that the only limitations on music are the ones we impose ourselves.
