Jordan Suckley Presents Damaged Records Volume One – Mixed By Jordan Suckley & Mark SherryIn a touch under 25 releases and scarcely more than a year, the sound of Damaged Records has become next to synonymous with peak-time and the all-new calling card for Haaard! From their running start in Feb last year, it became Beatport’s #1 trance label debut for 2014 and is now one of BP’s 15 bestselling labels within the genre. Further, Damaged’s put radio playlists on notice, floors on lockdown and hatched - in the blink of an eye - a radio show and a string of sold-out tour nights. Locking & loading 38 tracks from trance’s bloc, each has one thing in common: tough comes hardcoded! Pre-order here: https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/damaged-records-volume-one/id978683898 Trance-wise if you’re after wall-to-wall angelic choirs, symphonic breakdowns, elongated drops and sensitive harmonics, best look elsewhere (and run for cover while you’re doing it!). ‘Damaged Records Volume One’ cranks the charging handle and drops the detonator on 160 minutes of pure audio dynamite. Across the psychotropic trance of Future Disciple’s ‘The Mayans Are Coming Back’, ‘Anno Machina’ from Microsis and Royal Flush’s Humanity & ‘Walter White’, Jordan hits the Goa accelerator early on his mix. With recent singles like ‘Droid’ & ‘Medic’ and upcoming tracks like ‘Elation’ & ‘Who Cares?’ the midsection meanwhile is marked out by a wealth of Jordan’s own club-vaporising creations. Lighting the mix’s afterburners and taking things to hitherto unknown heights, he levels-up with ‘Sahara’ from Tangle, A.R.D.I.’s rework of Daniel Skyver’s ‘No One Else’ and Reverse’s ‘Ultima’. On the first year of Damaged Records and the release of the label’s first mix-comp, Jordan says: “I'm very happy with how Damaged has developed in the last year and this compilation is a real snapshot of the sound I'm pushing in clubs all over the world!” Frontend of the second disc, Scotland’s Mark Sherry mixes up music from newcomers & established producers alike. The sonic equivalent of a rhino charge, it’s flush with no-nonsense tech-trance steel from young guns like Alex Di Stefano and Jamie Walker, which dovetail into tracks like ‘The Code’ from trance grandmaster Mario Piu. Further in Markus Schulz and Max Graham lend their gravitas, as Mark daisychains his remixes of ‘Remember This’ and The Evil ID’. More Sherry floor flaming is right around the corner with ‘Let It Come’ - his killer collab with The Space Brothers, ‘Vengeance’ (in two different mix flavours) and his recent Beatport chart scaling re-envisioning of the classic ‘The Pillars Of Creation’. ‘Damaged Records Volume One’ sees Jordan & Mark hide the hazard tape and unscrew the safety rail to thrillingly deliver top-of-the-drop trance that’ll clean take your breath away! It’s on the loose from April 13th. 01. Royal Flush – Humanity 01. Mark Sherry & Dr Willis - Here Come The Drums (Pedro Delgardo & Dualitik Remix) 04. Alex Di Stefano - Ironclad (Spektre Remix) 05.
