Andrei Rata, or Andrew Rayel, has been producing music since the age of thirteen. Now, at only twenty one years old, his sound has developed and perfected its way to claim ASOT’s ‘tune of the week’. While Armin’s original version of ‘Intense’ is predictably what you would expect from the trance superstar, Andrew Rayel’s take on it is just slightly more anthemic. The added energy that Rayel brought to the track puts it well into the realm of other trance bangers.The melodic strings transition into uplifting super-saws, and finally culminate in a call/response melody that has been the staple of similar trance anthems. While Armin may remain at the top, I personally prefer Andrew Rayel’s remix over the original. All-in-all, the track is well deserving of the ‘tune of the week.’
