Neal’s monthly radio show Creation is now available as a podcast through iTunes - a fusion of the newest progressive, trance and tech tunes straight to your iPod. Click on the iTunes link to subscribe to the Creation podcast.
Following on from the hugely successful Panama, Neal Scarborough steps back into the Fraction spotlight with another heavy hitting, tech tinged trance monster, Wiretap.
The Original Mix is a real no holds barred, peak time bruiser, driven by the huge rolling bass line and energetic percussion throughout. When the break drops, the superbly crafted big room lead line and atmospherics build the track into the perfect dance floor destroyer! Jan Oostdyk is at the remix controls for the flip side, with an ultra cool fusion of uplifting and tech elements in equal measure.
Another massive outing from one of Irelands finest exports!
Neal’s latest release comes in the form of Tiberium. Fresh from his recent hit, Panama, on Fraction Records, Neal joins the Conspiracy stable as a solo artist with a more uplifting affair while still keeping the drive and energy he is known for.
Backing the release is Conspiracy head man Activa with a mix that stays true to the original but adds a more 'hands in the air' approach to the strings and a pacier groove.
Finishing off the package in style is the fantastic David Forbes who utilizes the originals pluck to great effect and spins the track on its head giving it a tougher vibe.
//// BIOGRAPHY
Positioned right at the peak of the trance new-blood curve, meet Neal Scarborough - Ireland’s freshest electronic dance production property! Over the last few years Neal has supplied the world’s biggest DJs with a non-stop volley of floor-igniting productions, all built with his matchless powerhouse studio style. Recording for labels including Discover, Fraction and Armin van Buuren’s Soundpiercing, his remixing skills are as regularly called upon by imprints including Vandit, Infrasonic and Conspiracy.
In 2004, in collaboration with fellow countryman John O’Callaghan, Neal launched his production career under the moniker Inertia. Discover Records’ A&R vanguard John Askew was quick to seize on both the potential and quality of the partnership - signing them to the respected imprint with breakneck speed. He went on to comment in 2009: Neal is a great producer whose music always has an incredible punch and clarity. He's also a really creative remixer and an exciting DJ. Their first release ‘The Emerald’ brought with it a convoy of DJ support, from the likes of PVD, Armin van Buuren & O’Bir, all of which gave heavy in-club and radio presence to the track. Capitalizing on its reception, their second release ‘The Chamber’ became one of 2005’s biggest underground club smashes, again drawing DJ plaudits from across the EDM range, including Greg Downey who said: “Neal Scarborough has a bright future ahead of him. Being one of my favourite producers, his tracks feature heavily in my sets”
At the start of 2006 Scarborough began to focus more time on his solo productions and remixes. He launched his first solo pseudonym under the name Nautical Imagery, with the track ‘Distant Dreams’. The track appeared on Enhanced Recordings and was placed at No.6 on Paul van Dyk’s 2006 Top 10.
‘Stung on the River’, his first release under his own name came out in 2006, which, partnered by a Sean Tyas remix, further cemented his release reputation. That was followed just two months later by his cover of Art of Trance’s ‘Madagascar’ on Soundpiercing. In the same year he also remixed Dave 202’s ‘Rain Against Her’ for Soundpiercing’s sister-label Captivating Sounds and he re-fashioned Thomas Datt’s track ‘Distance’ into a brilliant, high-octane floor-tenderizer.
The following year saw Scarborough renew his studio partnership with John O’Callaghan… Just in time for summer 2008, the pair released Inertia’s ‘The System’; a track that transfixed dancefloors throughout the season. Over the course of the year he also made his remix debut for Vandit Records, with his highly-charged (and regarded) rework of Jon O’Bir’s ‘Ways and Means’.
