It was 1801 and the world was yet to be introduced to the wonders of electronic dance music. A German composer, named Ludwig van Beethoven, wrote one of his most popular sonatas that day: The Piano Sonata no. 14, popularly known as the Moonlight Sonata. Could he have guessed that even 200 years after his death, a completely new generation would dance to his work? Inspired by the past, but with his eyes fixed on the future, Ashley Wallbridge translated the famous piano lines into a 2011 fit masterpiece, 'Moonlight Sonata'.
As heard on his previous tracks 'Chimera', 'Harrier' and 'Smoke', Ashley likes to shine a little light on the darker side of dance music. He keeps them stuck between progressive, electro and trance, always adding a deep, energetic feel to it. Same goes for his 'Moonlight Sonata', on which he built a modern construct around the original piano line. A new anthem for the nocturnal society has risen.
