Joris Voorn, Moonman, Ferry Corsten - Don't Be Afraid

 

The meeting of two Dutch musical masters, Joris Voorn's rework of Moonman's 'Don't Be Afraid' pays tribute to one of trance music's most enduring anthems while reintroducing it to a new generation of dance floors. Originally released in 1996 on Sci-Fi Records, 'Don't Be Afraid' was one of three seminal Moonman singles - alongside Galaxia and First Light - that helped define the golden era of Trance. Moonman was, of course, one of the earliest aliases of Ferry Corsten, and it was the track's goosebump-inducing synth melody that first propelled him, albeit anonymously, into the global consciousness of the dance music scene, laying the foundations for a truly storied career. For Spectrum boss Joris Voorn, revisiting such a revered classic is a bold move; but one handled with deep respect and clear intent. His rework retains the emotional core and iconic melody of the original, while layering in a weighty low-end and rattling snares to give the track a renewed power and drive. The result is a glorious rush of nostalgia and fresh emotion, lifting 'Don't Be Afraid' once more into the stratosphere. exactly where it belongs.
