William Holland is a musician, DJ and record producer from Bewdley, Worcestershire. He is based in Colombia.

He records under various guises, notably, Quantic, The Quantic Soul Orchestra, and The Limp Twins. His music draws upon elements of salsa, bossa nova, soul, funk and jazz. Holland plays guitars, bass, double bass, piano, organ, saxophone and percussion. Much of his sound is original composition with little in the way of sampling of other artists' material.

Holland also has his own label ''Magnetic Fields'' on which he releases heavy soul and funk. He has also taken on remix duties for over 30 songs.

History

His albums ''The 5th Exotic'' (2001) and ''Apricot Morning'' (2002) featured vocals from British artists including soul singer Alice Russell. In 2003, he assembled The Quantic Soul Orchestra, a new project aimed at producing 60s/70s style raw funk, playing guitar himself, and featuring other musicians including his saxophonist sister, Lucy Holland."

In 2007, Holland moved to Cali, Colombia. He set up an analogue studio and recorded and released The Quantic Soul Orchestra album ''Tropidélico'' (2007) and the self-titled debut from his tropical-dub side project, Quantic Presenta Flowering Inferno (2008), which featured a variety of musicians from the area. He subsequently assembled the Combo Bárbaro (lit. "group of barbarians", referring to non-Europeans).

Holland's 2008 collaboration with Nickodemus "Mi Swing Es Tropical" was featured on an Apple iPod television commercial.

Holland is a name in common usage given to a region in the western part of the Netherlands. The term ''Holland'' is also frequently used to refer to the whole of the Netherlands. This usage is generally accepted but disliked by many Dutch people in the other parts of the Netherlands.

From the 10th century to the 16th century, Holland proper was a unified political region, a county ruled by the Count of Holland. By the 17th century, Holland had risen to become a maritime and economic power, dominating the other provinces of the Dutch Republic.

Today, the former County of Holland consists of the two Dutch provinces of North Holland and South Holland, which together include the Netherlands' three largest cities: country capital Amsterdam; seat of government The Hague; and Rotterdam, home of Europe's largest port.

Etymology

Pliny the Elder (AD 23–79) referred to this region as the land between the Helinium and Flevo ''("inter Helinium ac Flevum")'', the names of the mouths into which the Rhine divided itself, the first discharging its waters in the Mosa in the neighbourhood of Brielle and the second into "the lakes of the north" (present IJsselmeer). The name ''Holland'' first appeared in sources in AD 866 for the region around Haarlem, and by 1064 was being used as the name of the entire county. By this time, the inhabitants of Holland were referring to themselves as "Hollanders". ''Holland'' is derived from the Middle Dutch term ''holtland'' ("wooded land"). This spelling variation remained in use until around the 14th century, at which time the name stabilised as ''Holland'' (alternative spellings at the time were ''Hollant'' and ''Hollandt''). Popular, but incorrect etymology holds that ''Holland'' is derived from ''hol land'' ("hollow land") and was inspired by the low-lying geography of Holland.

Usage

The proper name of the area in both Dutch and English is "Holland". "Holland" is a part of the Netherlands. "Holland" is informally used in English and other languages, including sometimes the Dutch language itself, to mean the whole of the modern country of the Netherlands. (This example of pars pro toto or synecdoche is similar to the tendency to refer to the United Kingdom as "England".)

The people of Holland are referred to as "Hollanders" in both Dutch and English. Today this refers specifically to people from the current provinces of North Holland and South Holland. Strictly speaking, the term "Hollanders" does not refer to people from the other provinces in the Netherlands, but colloquially "Hollanders" is sometimes mistakenly used in this wider sense.

In Dutch, the Dutch word "''Hollands''" is the adjectival form for "''Holland''". The Dutch word "''Hollands''" is also colloquially and occasionally used by some Dutch people in the sense of "''Nederlands''" (Dutch), but then often with the intention of contrasting with other types of Dutch people or language, for example Limburgish, the Belgian form of the Dutch language ("Flemish"), or even any southern variety of Dutch within the Netherlands itself.

However, in English there is no commonly used adjective for "Holland". "Dutch" refers to the Netherlands as a whole, not just the region of Holland. "''Hollands''" is ordinarily expressed in English in two ways:

a possessive construction (e.g. "Holland's economic power"); or

an "of Holland" or "from Holland" construction (e.g. "the Maid of Holland"; "a girl from Holland").

The following usages apply in certain limited situations but do not ordinarily serve as the English equivalent of the commonly used Dutch adjective "''Hollands''".

Occasionally, the noun "Holland" is used in apposition (e.g. "the Holland Society").

The adjective "Hollandic" is occasionally used by some historians and other academic writers as an adjective for Holland. Historians who use the word tend to reserve it to pre-Napoleonic Holland. Hollandic is also the name linguists give to the dialect spoken in Holland.

The adjective "Hollandish" is a word in English but is no longer in use.

Geography

Holland is situated in the west of the Netherlands. A maritime region, Holland lies on the North Sea at the mouths of the Rhine and the Meuse (Maas). It has numerous rivers and lakes and an extensive inland canal and waterway system. To the south is Zealand. The region is bordered on the east by the IJsselmeer and four different provinces of the Netherlands.

Holland is protected from the sea by a long line of coastal dunes. Most of the land area behind the dunes consists of polder landscape lying well below sea level. At present the lowest point in Holland is a polder near Rotterdam, which is about seven meters below sea level. Continuous drainage is necessary to keep Holland from flooding. In earlier centuries windmills were used for this task. The landscape was (and in places still is) dotted with windmills, which have become a symbol of Holland.

Holland is 7,494 square kilometres (land and water included), making it roughly 13% of the area of the Netherlands. Looking at land alone, it is 5,488 square kilometres in size. The combined population is 6.1 million.

The main cities in Holland are Amsterdam, Rotterdam and The Hague. Amsterdam is formally the capital of the Netherlands and its largest city. The Port of Rotterdam is Europe's largest and most important harbour and port. The Hague is the seat of government of the Netherlands. These cities, combined with Utrecht and other smaller municipalities, effectively form a single city—a conurbation called Randstad.

The Randstad area is one of the most densely populated regions of Europe, but still relatively free of urban sprawl. There are strict zoning laws. Population pressures are enormous, property values are high, and new housing is constantly under development on the edges of the built-up areas. Surprisingly, much of the province still has a rural character. The remaining agricultural land and natural areas are highly valued and protected. Most of the arable land is used for intensive agriculture, including horticulture and greenhouse agri-businesses.

Language

The predominant language spoken in the Holland is Dutch. Hollanders sometimes refer to the Dutch language as "''Hollands''", instead of the standard term ''Nederlands''. Inhabitants of Belgium and other provinces of the Netherlands refer to "Hollands" to indicate someone speaking in a Hollandic dialect, or strong accent.

Standard Dutch was historically largely based on the dialect of the County of Holland, incorporating many traits derived from the dialects of the previously more powerful Duchy of Brabant and County of Flanders. Strong dialectal variation still exists throughout the Low Countries. Today, Holland-proper is the region where the original dialects are least spoken, in many areas having been completely replaced by standard Dutch, and the Randstad has the largest influence on the developments of the standard language—with the exception of the Dutch spoken in Belgium.

Despite this correspondence between standard Dutch and the Dutch spoken in the Randstad, there are local variations within Holland itself that differ from standard Dutch. The main cities each have their own modern urban dialect, that can be considered a sociolect. A small number of people, especially in the area north of Amsterdam, still speak the original dialect of the county, Hollandic. The Hollandic dialect is present in the north: Volendam and Marken and the area around there, West Friesland and the Zaanstreek; and in a south-eastern fringe bordering on the provinces of North Brabant and Utrecht. In the south on the island of Goeree-Overflakkee, Zealandic is spoken.

History

Each of the provinces in the Netherlands has a history that deserves full attention on its own. However, to a certain extent at least, the history of Holland is the history of the Netherlands, and vice versa. See the article on "History of the Netherlands" for a more detailed history. The article here focuses on those points that are specific to Holland itself or that highlight the nature of the role played by Holland in the Netherlands as a whole.

Reclamation of the land

The land that is now Holland had never been stable. Over the millennia the geography of the region had been dynamic. The western coastline shifted up to thirty kilometres to the east and storm surges regularly broke through the row of coastal dunes. The Frisian Isles, originally joined to the mainland, became detached islands in the north. The main rivers, the Rhine and the Meuse (Maas), flooded regularly and changed course repeatedly and dramatically.

The people of Holland found themselves living in an unstable, watery environment. Behind the dunes on the coast of the Netherlands a high peat plateau had grown, forming a natural protection against the sea. Much of the area was marsh and bog. By the tenth century the inhabitants set about cultivating this land by draining it. However, the drainage resulted in extreme soil shrinkage, lowering the surface of the land by up to fifteen metres.

To the south of Holland, in Zeeland, and to the north, in Frisia, this development led to catastrophic storm floods literally washing away entire regions, as the peat layer disintegrated or became detached and was carried away by the flood water. From the Frisian side the sea even flooded the area to the east, gradually hollowing Holland out from behind and forming the Zuiderzee (the present IJsselmeer). This inland sea threatened to link up with the "drowned lands" of Zealand in the south, reducing Holland to a series of narrow dune barrier islands in front of a lagoon. Only drastic administrative intervention saved the county from utter destruction. The counts and large monasteries took the lead in these efforts, building the first heavy emergency dikes to bolster critical points. Later special autonomous administrative bodies were formed, the ''waterschappen'' ("water control boards"), which had the legal power to enforce their regulations and decisions on water management. As the centuries went by, they eventually constructed an extensive dike system that covered the coastline and the polders, thus protecting the land from further incursions by the sea.

However, the Hollanders did not stop there. Starting around the 16th century, they took the offensive and began land reclamation projects, converting lakes, marshy areas and adjoining mudflats into polders. This continued right into the 20th century. As a result, historical maps of mediaeval and early modern Holland bear little resemblance to the maps of today.

This ongoing struggle to master the water played an important role in the development of Holland as a maritime and economic power and in the development of the character of the people of Holland.

County of Holland

Until the 9th century, the inhabitants of the area that became Holland were Frisians. The area was part of Frisia. At the end of the 9th century, Holland became a separate county in the Holy Roman Empire. The first count of Holland known about with certainty was Dirk I, who ruled (also as count of Frisia) from 896 to 931. He was succeeded by a long line of counts in the House of Holland. When John I, count of Holland, died childless in 1299, the county was inherited by John II of Avesnes, count of Hainaut. By the time of William V (House of Wittelsbach; 1354–1388) the count of Holland was also the count of Hainaut, Flanders and Zealand. right|600px|thumb|"De Staten van Hollandt ende West-Vrieslandt..." mentioned in the opening of one of their decisions (1654) In this time a part of Frisia, West Friesland, was conquered (as a result, most provincial institutions, including the States of Holland and West Frisia, would for centuries refer to "Holland and West Frisia" as a unit). The Hook and Cod wars started around this time and ended when the countess of Holland, Jacoba or Jacqueline was forced to give up Holland to the Burgundian Philip III, known as Philip the Good, in 1432.

The last count of Holland was Philip III, better known as Philip II king of Spain. He was abolished in 1581 by the so-called Act of Abjuration, although the kings of Spain continued to carry the titular appellation of count of Holland until the Peace of Münster signed in 1648.

Holland's prominence in the United Provinces and Dutch Republic

In 1432 Holland became part of the Burgundian Netherlands and since 1477 of the Habsburg Seventeen Provinces. In the 16th century the county became the most densely urbanised region in Europe, with the majority of the population living in cities. Within the Burgundian Netherlands, Holland was the dominant province in the north; the political influence of Holland largely determined the extent of Burgundian dominion in that area.

In the Dutch Rebellion against the Habsburgs during the Eighty Years' War, the naval forces of the rebels, the Watergeuzen, established their first permanent base in 1572 in the town of Brill. In this way, Holland, now a sovereign state in a larger Dutch confederation, became the centre of the rebellion. It became the cultural, political and economic centre of the United Provinces, in the 17th century, the Dutch Golden Age, the wealthiest nation in the world. After the King of Spain was deposed as the count of Holland, the executive and legislative power rested with the States of Holland, which was led by a political figure who held the office of Grand Pensionary.

The largest cities in the Dutch Republic were in the province of Holland, such as Amsterdam, Rotterdam, Leiden, Alkmaar, The Hague, Delft, Dordrecht and Haarlem. From the great ports of Holland, Hollandic merchants sailed to and from destinations all over Europe, and merchants from all over Europe gathered to trade in the warehouses of Amsterdam and other trading cities of Holland.

Many Europeans thought of the United Provinces first as "Holland" rather than as the "Republic of the Seven United Provinces of the Netherlands". A strong impression of "Holland" was planted in the minds of other Europeans, which then was projected back onto the Republic as a whole. Within the provinces themselves, a gradual slow process of cultural expansion took place, leading to a "Hollandification" of the other provinces and a more uniform culture for the whole of the Republic. The dialect of urban Holland became the standard language.

Kingdom of Holland

The formation of the Batavian Republic, inspired by the French revolution, led to a more centralised government. Holland became a province of a unitary state. Its independence was further reduced by an administrative reform in 1798, in which its territory was divided into several departments called ''Amstel'', ''Delf'', ''Texel'', and part of ''Schelde en Maas''.

From 1806 to 1810 Napoleon styled his vassal state, governed by his brother Louis Napoleon and shortly by the son of Louis, Napoleon Louis Bonaparte, as the "Kingdom of Holland". This kingdom encompassed much of what would become the modern Netherlands. The name reflects how natural at the time it had become to equate Holland with the non-Belgian Netherlands as a whole.

During the period the Low Countries were annexed by the French Empire and actually incorporated into France (from 1810 to 1813), Holland was divided into the ''départements'' Zuyderzée and Bouches-de-la-Meuse.

Provinces like any other

After 1813, Holland was restored as a province of the United Kingdom of the Netherlands.

Holland was divided into the present provinces North Holland and South Holland in 1840, after the Belgian Revolution of 1830. This reflected an historical division of Holland along the IJ into a Southern Quarter (''Zuiderkwartier'') and a Northern Quarter (''Noorderkwartier''). But the actual division is different from the old division.

From 1850 a strong process of nation formation took place, the Netherlands being culturally unified and economically integrated by a modernisation process, with the cities of Holland as its centre.

Image of Holland at home and abroad

The predominance of Holland in the Netherlands has resulted in regionalism on the part of the other provinces. This is a reaction to the perceived threat that Holland poses to the identities and local cultures of the other provinces. The other provinces have a strong, and often negative, image of Holland and the Hollanders, to whom certain qualities are ascribed within a mental geography, a conceptual mapping of spaces and their inhabitants. On the other hand, some Hollanders take Holland's cultural dominance for granted and treat the concepts of "Holland" and the "Netherlands" as coincidental. Consequently, they see themselves not primarily as "Hollanders", but simply as "Dutch" (''Nederlanders''). This phenomenon has been called "hollandocentrism".

Holland tends to be associated with a particular image. The stereotypical image of Holland is an artificial amalgam of tulips, windmills, clogs, cheese and traditional dress (''klederdracht''). As is the case with many stereotypes, this is far from the truth and reality of life in Holland. This can at least in part be explained by the active exploitation of these stereotypes in promotions of Holland and the Netherlands. In fact only in a few of the more traditional villages, such as Volendam and locations in the Zaan area, are the different costumes with wooden shoes still worn by some inhabitants.

New Holland

The province of Holland gave its name to a number of colonial settlements and discovered regions that were called ''Nieuw Holland'' or New Holland. The most extensive of these was the island continent presently known as Australia: New Holland was first applied to Australia in 1644 by the Dutch seafarer Abel Tasman as a Latin ''Nova Hollandia'', and remained in international use for 190 years. On the same voyage he named New Zealand after the Dutch province of Zeeland. In the Netherlands ''Nieuw Holland'' would remain the usual name of the continent until the end of the 19th century; it is now no longer in use there, the Dutch name today being ''Australië''.

Tiff Lacey (aka Tiffany Lacey) is a singer/songwriter from Crayford, Kent, England, and the vocalist behind many trance and house hits. She's known for her particular, soft vocal and the fact that she usually writes lyrics that differ considerably from the standard hooks in the genre.

Singing career

Tiff Lacey started singing when she was 16 years old. A few years later she began working as a backing singer to the band "Falling Man". They recorded an album and gigged regularly until they eventually disbanded. Then she started fronting a blues/rock band touring locally in the South East. However, she felt the need to develop her songwriting capabilities in her own right, so she left the band, but yet teamed up with one of its members.They recorded several songs and had interest from both Virgin and EMI. But unfortunately they broke up soon after, because she was not able to capitalize upon the record company's interest. Deciding to change direction, Tiff Lacey joined the "Frankenstein’s Baby", an indie/folk band. They wrote and recorded their own material, gained large fan base and were reviewed various times in musical press around the country. Playing regularly at the legendary "Mean Fiddler", Tiff Lacey felt that the other members were not as driven as her in seeking chart success, so she left, to reflect on the direction her career should eventually take.

And then her breakthrough in the club scene happened. Her demo was chosen among many by Paul Oakenfold and he invited her to record the vocals for his track "Hypnotised", which became a worldwide hit in 2002. It was then followed by "In Your Hands" with Redd Square which resulted another success and by M-Box's "Kiss In Shadows", which was remixed by Tiesto. In 2003 she also provided vocals for The Thrillseekers' track "Affinity". Her fame was established in 2004 when she was included in three tracks from ATB's album ''No Silence'', all three of which became hits, especially "Ecstasy" which is still ATB's biggest hit to date. She would later work with him again for the albums ''Seven Years: 1998-2005'' (2005) and ''Future Memories'' (2009). In 2005 she recorded vocals for Filo & Peri's techno hit "Dance With A Devil", which was remixed by Serge Devant and DJ Shog. That year saw her teaming up with Headstrong (aka Don Jackson) which is her signature collaborator to date next to ATB. They recorded numerous tracks together which were released through the years. The hits among them are "Close Your Eyes" (2005), "The Truth" (2006) and "Symphony Of Soul" (2007). Lacey got in touch with Jackson thanks to another longtime collaborator and popular name in the EDM industry - Matt Darey (who contributed a remix for "Close Your Eyes"), with whom she recorded the successful track "Always", which was followed by "Sum Of All Fears" (2007) and "Into The Blue" (2010).

In 2006 she recorded for the first time with Cosmic Gate. The tune called "Should've Known" was included on their album ''Earth Mover'' and was also released as a single with remixes by Wippenberg, Jonas Steur a.k.a. Estuera and DJ Delicious, receiving big success. Wippenberg wanted Lacey for the track "Promised Land" the next year, which was remixed by Nic Chagall.

In 2007 Tiff Lacey teamed up with Russian DJ Bobina for a collaboration track called "Where Did You Go", which was included in his album "Again". The track was remixed by another popular name, Dutch DJ First State. The remix received massive support from DJs such as Armin Van Buuren, which led to a collaboration between First State and Lacey called "Where Do We Go", included on his album "Time Frame".

In 2008 Lacey recorded two tracks with trance duo Matt Abbott and Chris Chambers a.k.a. Abbott & Chambers titled "Where Are You" and "Strange Liaison". The tracks were released with packages including remixes by Nitrous Oxide, Cressida, Carl B, Dennis Sheperd, David & Carr, Onova, Allan O' Marshall and Karl G. These tunes established her fame in the Uplifting trance genre, after being included mainly on Progressive trance and Dance before that. The same year she also did "Don't Be Afraid" with Michael Badal and "The Sweetest Sound" with Nick Murray both of which became hits (the second one was her first release on her future label Loverush Digital) and are considered signature tracks of hers. Overall in 2008 (only) Tiff Lacey was included on more than 30 releases.

Her collaboration track with Tenishia called "Burning From The Inside" won the award Best Dance Production 2008 at the Malta Music Awards.

She wrote a vocal electronic album with Huw Williams in 2007 and it was released in 2008 under their alias name Rubikon and titled "Wonderland". The album featured 11 original recordings. Three of them, "Thing Called Love", "Why Keep On" and "Telephone" were released as singles with remixes by Morgan Page and Hakan Ludvigson, amongst others.

Even though she's mainly considered a Trance singer, however, Tiff Lacey is often wanted for House music collaborations as well. Some of her highlights in this genre include: "Clockworks" with Amex, Natlife and Purepath (2008), "Dreaming" with DJ Zya (2009), "Sweet 17" with Tash (2009), "Beds" with Chus Liberata (2010), "As We Ride" with The Henchmen (2011) and "Perfect World" with Pagano (2011).

Tiff Lacey's first solo single (she only had one solo song included on Ibiza compilation before that) - a piano ballad called "Show Me The Way" was released on 14 December 2009, with remix package provided by Ivan Spell and Gabriel Lukosz. It was re-released in 2011 with a reworked version of the Ivan Spell remix.

In January 2010 "I Know" with George Acosta was released. The remix of the tune by Beat Service was played on A State Of Trance and featured on numerous other podcasts.

In April 2010, Tiff Lacey signed label Loverush Digital. Later in that year she did a special appearance on Matt Darey's Nocturnal radio show where a 1 hour guest vocal set consisting entirely of her hits was played, including comments by herself between every track.

She wrote a dance tune called "Healing" with Robert De Fresnes under alias Seven Sisters in 2010. To be officially released in 2011.

In February, 2011, her track with Aly & Fila called "Paradise" was released as a single on Future Sound of Egypt to good reviews, being played on ASOT.

Tiff and Solo teamed up under alias "Seagate" to release a trance track called "Remain In Light" on June 2, 2011.

On 31 January 2011 the singer shared the official video of the first single from her upcoming full-length studio album "iVIVA!" called "Take Me Away" on her Facebook page. Later on the same day Mark "Loverush" Schneider announced the single's upcoming release. It was released on March 9, 2011 on iTunes with remixes by Tom Noize, Loverush UK, Darren Flinders and Stereojackers.

On May 8, 2011, Tiff Lacey presented on Facebook an official video to another song from her upcoming album - the ballad "Mother To Daughter". The video was shot in Dorset and in her home. Her daughter also appears in it.

There was an album launch party which took place in London on August 12, 2011. The event included live performances by Lacey and Paul Stevens and guest DJ sets by Loverush UK, Stuart J and Matt Emulsion.

Her album "¡Viva!" came out on iTunes on August 15, 2011 via Loverush Digital. Among the main record producers in it are George Popa, Matt Bukovski, Nick Murray and Loverush UK!.

Several new collaboration tracks are in production phase.

Writing and painting

Besides her singing talent, Tiff Lacey is also a writer and painter. She wrote almost all of her song lyrics. Her themes include various subjects, like love, dreams, fears, introspection, nostalgia, sorrow, happiness, God and, especially in the last few years, much of her lyrics are concentrated on motherhood.

She's writing a children book called "Smaharaim. A Tale of Smidgeon", which she's also illustrating by herself. Commercial release is planned through her own publishing label PeaChi Publishing. Painting is another passion for Tiff Lacey and she has a large personal collection of artworks drawn by her.

Andrej Komatovic, widely known as Andy Blueman (born September 4, 1982) is a Slovenian Trance producer. His release ''Time to Rest'' was included in Armin van Buuren's trance compilation A State Of Trance 2008, and 'Everlasting (Original Mix)' was included in A State Of Trance Yearmix 2009. His work ''Florescence (Epic Mix)'' was also included in A State Of Trance Yearmix 2010 and ranked 18th best song of 2010 in the TranceFix Top 25 of 2010. Five of his tracks were voted the track of the week (Future Favorite) on A State of Trance, and two of his other tracks won Trance Around the World's weekly web vote. He was the only non-DJ to place in the top 70 in the Tranceaddict Official 2010 top DJs poll. Eleven of his tracks were voted amongst the greatest 1,000 tracks in the history of trance music out of over 10,000 nominees in the Trance Top 1000 poll organized by Armada Music, even though he had ever only worked on 13 trance songs released by the time of the competition.

Music

Andy first discovered trance music in 1997 when he bought the album, Dream Dance. Since then, his interest in trance music has grown, expanded and matured. Near the end of 2001, he started producing his own music, following his brother who did the same the year before. Until recently, Andy was producing with a variety of tools and experimenting with different styles, such as ambient/chill out, film music, melodic, progressive and uplifting trance.

In 2007, Perceptive Recordings had launched, and Andy's first track ''Nyctalopia'' was the first release on the label, with an extra Club Mix, and remixes by Onova and Will B. The release was a fantastic success. He decided to stay with Perceptive Recordings to release his music because they had a fair and amicable partnership. The popularity of Perceptive quickly grew with further singles including releases by Daniel Kandi and Adam Nickey.

Komatovic's uplifting trance music style includes the application of classical compositions, a genre many have called "Orchestral Uplifting" or "Uplifting Trance with Symphonic Orchestra". His first track, ''Nyctalopia'', included a dramatic string ensemble in the breakdown, while still applying the same laws of Trance. His tracks ''Neverland'' and ''The World To Come'' both included an emotional breakdown with the use of eastern drums, and ''Everlasting'' included a piano solo.

His first E.P., ''Sea Tides'', was released on February 23, 2009, and received hype by DJ's such as Ferry Corsten and Armin van Buuren. It included three original tracks: ''Sea Tides'', ''Neverland'' and ''Everlasting''. The E.P. also included a re-work of each of the tracks. These re-works still included all the same instruments, but both breakdown and main chorus melodies were changed.

Since the ''Sea Tides E.P.'', Komatovic has produced numerous remixes for various labels, including Armada and Anjunabeats, receiving hype from many DJ's including Above & Beyond, Armin van Buuren, Tiesto, Ferry Corsten, and others. His work has influenced the production of more orchestral trance, and more upcoming and established producers are producing their tracks with extended emotional orchestral breakdowns, including SoundLift, Arctic Moon, Nery, Aly & Fila, Ciro Visone, and Sara Pollino within the uplifting scene and Ralph Fritsch and Roger Shah in other trance genres. During 2010, Blueman continued to produce remixes, for Blue Soho, Subculture, Abora, AVA, and Enhanced Recordings. His fourth single ''Florescence'' was released in July 2010 as another purely solo release on Perceptive Recordings.

Many of his tracks have been widely voted as amongst the best in trance music. Eleven of his tracks were each voted as one of the 1,000 greatest trance tracks of all time out of over 10,000 nominees in the Trance Top 1000 poll organized by Armada Music (the largest trance label in the world). These were ''Afternova - Serenity (Andy Blueman Remix)'', ''Time To Rest (Daniel Kandi Banging Remix)'', ''Sea Tides (Original Mix)'', ''Neverland (Energetic Mix)'', ''Everlasting (Original Mix)'', ''Nyctalopia (Original Mix)'', ''Nery - Redawn (Andy Blueman Remix)'', ''The World To Come (Andy Blueman Mix)'', ''Airbase - Roots (Andy Blueman Remix)'', ''Adam Nickey - In Motion (Andy Blueman Remix)'', ''Robert Nickson - Circles (Andy Blueman Remix)''. By the time of the competition, only 13 trance songs Komatovic had worked on had been released; this rate of 85% is amongst the highest of any producer in the history of trance music and is a testament to Komatovic's consistently high quality.

His songs have also been voted highly by listeners of A State of Trance, which has about 15 million listeners a week: Five songs -- ''Time to Rest (Live Guitar by Eller van Buuren Mix)'', ''Nyctalopia (Onova remix)'', ''Time To Rest (Original Mix)'', ''Armin van Buuren pres. Gaia – Tuvan (Andy Blueman remix)'', and ''Nery – Redawn (Andy Blueman remix)'' -- were voted the corresponding week's Future Favorite. As for Trance Around the World and its 30 million listeners, two of Andrej's other tracks -- ''Ferry Tayle & Static Blue - L'Acrobat (Andy Blueman Remix)'' and ''Adam Nickey - In Motion (Andy Blueman Remix)''-- won the TATW web vote contest. And in the 2010 Trancefix poll of the best trance songs of 2010, ''Afternova - Serenity (Andy Blueman Remix)'' was rated the 11th best and his ''Florescence (Epic Mix)'' the 18th best of all trance songs for the year.

On 29 December 2010, Komatovic announced via his personal blog that he would quit the trance scene, having lost his passion for trance music. Rather, in the future he will focus on producing pieces of his favourite type of music: film scores. ''Away From The Sun'' (set for a 2011 release) and ''Cydonia'' are expected to be Andy Blueman's last two trance singles.

Daniel Kandi (born November 29, 1983) is a Danish trance producer and DJ currently living in Aalborg. Kandi entered the trance scene with the release of "Breathe" in 2006, on the successful Anjunabeats label. In 2010 he was ranked #77 in DJ Magazine's Top 100 DJ Poll.

Biography

Musical career

Daniel Kandi began producing trance music in 2000 under the name DJ Mendoza. He was a member of the Danish music community then known as MyMusic (now known as BandBase), where he published his music. In 2003 he formed the duo Duval and Mundo with another member of the community, Anders Duvald Mikkelsen (also known as Stalker). They released their first single as Aurelius, titled "Sorrow," with Jamie P. and vocals by David Hughes, in September 2005 on the Dutch label Intrenze.

From 2004 to 2007 Daniel Kandi worked with A&R; and executive producer Fritz Niko in two projects called Weekend Wonderz and Hit'n'Run, remixing for both Danish and international artists like Infernal, Inez, tv-2, Bent Fabric, Christine Milton and Terri Walker. They have been nominated three times at the Danish DeeJay Awards in the category "Danish Remix of the Year"; in 2006 for their remix of "Stronger" by singer Inez and their remix of "Alt det" by rapper Mortito, and in 2007 for their remix of "Ten Miles" by the dance act Infernal.

In 2006 Kandi produced a track called "Breathe," which was signed to the British trance label Anjunabeats in June 2006, as his first solo release. The follow-up EP "Child / Nova" was released in January 2007, and both tracks were featured on the compilation ''Anjunabeats Worldwide 01''. Kandi's third release on Anjunabeats was "Make Me Believe / I Found The Way," which was released on July 2, 2007. Furthermore "Make Me Believe" was featured on the compilation series entitled ''Anjunabeats Volume Five'' mixed by Above & Beyond.

On November 15, 2007 Armin van Buuren selected Luke Warner & Mat Lock - "Deep Psychosis (Daniel Kandi's Cure Mix)" as the "Tune of the Week" on A State Of Trance Episode 326. "Deep Psychosis" was released on December 10, 2007 on DJSA Records, after the track was signed to DJSA from users on HarderFaster. A remix competition for this track also appeared on the site.

In 2008 Kandi collaborated with Robert Nickson whom he visited in his studio in the Netherlands. This resulted in several tracks, with "Liberate" and "Rewire" being released on the A State of Trance label later the same year.

Every 3rd Friday Daniel Kandi hosts his own radio show called "Always Alive" on the internet radio Afterhours FM from 18–20 CET.

In April 2010 Kandi released the track "Symphonica." It was selected by Dutch DJ Armin van Buuren as the best track of 2010 on his personal top 20.

In January 2011 he launched the record label Always Alive Recordings, in collaboration with Phillip Alpha, as a sub-label to Enhanced Music.

In January 2011 Kandi was nominated at the 2011 Danish DeeJay Awards in the category Danish DJ of the Year.

Kandi has mentioned in several interviews that the only equipment he's used to produce his tracks has been Propellerhead's Reason software.

On March 3, 2011 Armin van Buuren selected Daniel Kandi & Phillip Alpha – If It Ain’t Broke as the "Tune of the Week" on A State Of Trance Episode 498.

Snooker career

Daniel Kandi has won the Danish snooker championship for five consecutive years from 2004 to 2009.
