French electronic maestro Matt Fax returns to his roots with a powerful new twist on one of his most beloved productions. “To The Ground (Matt Fax’s Doppelgänger Mix)”, released on Enhanced Progressive, reimagines the 2019 original with a punchier, club-oriented spirit, without losing the emotional resonance that made the track a milestone in his discography.
At just 20 years old back in 2019, Matt Fax was already being heralded as one of progressive trance’s brightest hopes. Drawing comparisons to Eric Prydz and deadmau5, the Toulouse-born producer has spent the past decade evolving a sound that blurs the lines between progressive house, trance, and melodic techno. From his debut album Contrast to frequent airplay on A State of Trance and support from Above & Beyond, Matt has cemented his position as a forward-thinking artist with an uncanny knack for emotionally rich yet club-ready tracks.
Originally a moody, slow-burn progressive anthem, “To The Ground” was a career-defining track for Fax, subtle, textured, and emotionally arresting. The 2024 Doppelgänger Mix gives the track a kinetic lift. It’s a bold rework built for the dancefloor, introducing a more assertive groove with driving basslines, razor-sharp percussion, and towering synth atmospheres that amplify the drama without overwhelming the track’s melodic integrity.
What stands out most is the balance: this version has more bite, but it never strays into overproduction. Fax keeps the soul of the original alive, infusing it with a sense of urgency and maturity that reflects his artistic growth.
⭐️ Rating: 9/10
