Johan Gielen presents Airscape – Circles

Few names in the trance scene carry as much weight as Johan Gielen, a true pioneer who has shaped the genre for over three decades. Under his Airscape alias, he has delivered some of the most iconic anthems in trance history. Circles, his latest release under Johan Gielen presents Airscape, is a testament to his ability to merge classic trance energy with modern production finesse.

Airscape, originally a duo formed by Johan Gielen and Sven Maes, became synonymous with euphoric melodies and driving beats in the late ‘90s and early 2000s. Tracks like L’Esperanza and their legendary remix of Delerium – Silence cemented Airscape’s place in trance history. Over the years, Gielen has carried the Airscape name forward as a solo endeavor, keeping its uplifting spirit alive.

Released on Black Hole Recordings, Circles is a high-energy, 134 BPM stormer that captures the essence of Airscape’s signature sound while embracing a polished, contemporary edge. The track kicks off with a pulsating bassline and crisp percussion, instantly setting a high-intensity mood. As the breakdown unfolds, airy pads and a haunting vocal pad introduce a deep sense of euphoria, building anticipation for the inevitable hands-in-the-air climax.

What makes Circles particularly stand out is its expertly crafted melody—soaring yet emotionally rich, balancing nostalgia with modern production techniques. The drop delivers a perfect mix of power and finesse, making it an ideal weapon for peak-time trance sets.

With Circles, Johan Gielen once again proves why he remains a revered figure in trance music. It’s a track that bridges the past and present, appealing to longtime fans while captivating new listeners. Whether you’re on a festival dancefloor or lost in a solo listening session, Circles is bound to take you on a journey.
