77/100

• First collaboration of the involved names
• Relies on Psy-trance elements heavily
• Slacks on creativity, yet displays energy

With the hulking and bass-driven genre of Psy-trance playing its significant role in major festivals across the globe, this style of dance music has seized the throne with its intensity. Multiple releases have been done already this year, which rely heavily on the fast-moving riffs and bassline schematic. We have another production from two big names, one being the leading Australian artist Timmy Trumpet and the other Maddix, who has garnered heavy appreciation with his works. Both of them have collaborated for the first time, and have crafted a vigorous tune christened “The Prophecy”.

Taking curtains off new songs every month and so, both of these names have worked heavily inside their respective studios. While Timmy Trumpet has experimented with fast-paced and hard-packed productions like “Scarborough Fair” and “Toro“, the Dutch native Maddix recently teamed up with the luminary Hardwell for their twist on “Bella Ciao“. Even if the latter release didn’t get into our good books, it managed to pull off nicely. The subject of this review both impressed yet left us craving more, which we will be talking in the following paragraphs.

One of the main ingredients of “The Prophecy” is its vocal tone. It is engaging, but leaves gaps for slightly more creativeness. The very first breakdown brings in the main element, a vocal snippet which may remind you of its presence in some other records. This necessarily doesn’t mean bad things, as it will be biasing right off the start. With subtly pitched effect on it, this vox snippet leads everything with it: the melody hook, the bassline and so on. However, we will give due credit to the artists for the stamina-enriched drop which follows, utilizing fan-favourite triplet bass groove. Synths stack up with the leading part, giving it a harmonic feel. After this, our readers may understand the statement we made in the preceding paragraph, of how the entirety of this particular song left us demanding more but, nonetheless, felt dynamic throughout.

Summarising in few words, “The Prophecy” is a festival material for starters and imposes the listener to good extents.
