After his 'Buenos Aires' inaugural popped Afterdark's mixcomp cherry last August, the spring of 2019 sees label honcho Sneijder ready for a second drop. Doubling down, the album expands to two discs and finds Afterdark bring the sound of the underground to Los Angeles. Capturing every fader-flip, drum-kick, synth-soar and reciprocal crowd cheer, in the liveliest of live forms Sneijder's 'Afterdark 002' defines the trance divinity of the City of Angels. Packed with exclusive music from the likes of Giuseppe Ottaviani, Key4050, Stoneface & Terminal, Simon Patterson and others, with finger-on-pulse intuition '002' shifts between the melodic, the uplifting, the tech and the out-&-out tough. Boasting a track list rammed with upfront, cutting edge club music from the Afterdark roaster and seasoned artists across the trance and tech spectrum. Comprising of 16 tracks, in about the finest way possible, disc one commences with Sneijder's most recent single, 'Back Home'. Having notched an 8.5/10 in DJ Mag ("when song and mainline meet, honest-to-goodness magic happens" declared the mag), the Irishman rolls 'Home' into an early uplifting ascension. Collectively Cold Blue's synth-storming 'Another Life', 'Redemption' from Italian doyen Alessandra Roncone and newcomer Billie Gillies's thrill-packed 'Evolve' send it airborne. Sneijder proceeds to slide recent Giuseppe Ottaviani chart-topper 'Panama' between Craig Connelly's remix of his & Karen Kelly's 'Be With You' and his own firestarting, 'Resonate'. Album-exclusive 'Here Once Again' sees the mix go up a gear, opening it up into its tougher second act. Stoneface & Terminal's 'Mind Games', Mandy Reid's 'Infiltration', 'Taipan' from Renegade System and others orchestrate the floor action before Sneijder's harmonic, anthemic revision of Ben Gold & Sivan's 'Stay' kisses it off.
