섹시가이 'Dennis Sheperd'의 엣지 있고 소울풀한 매력이 돋보이는 앨범
'Dennis Sheperd' - [Fight Your Fears (Extended Mixes)]

독일출신 뮤지션 'Dennis Sheperd'는 그의 아티스트 앨범 [Fight Your Fears]와 [Bring You Home], [We Are]의 성공 이후 아민 반 뷰렌의 적극적인 지지를 받고 있는 트랜스 뮤지션으로 섹시한 외모와 재능으로 팬들의 사랑을 한 몸에 받고 있는 핫 가이다. 베를린을 기반으로 활동하는 그가 그의 두 번째 아티스트 앨범 [Fight Your Fears]를 발표하면서 두 개의 멋진 트랙을 미리 선보였다.  이 앨범에 실린 두 곡 "Come Alive"와 "Wanting"은 'Dennis Sheperd'의 재능인 순수한 트랜스와 섬세한 가사가 돋보이는 곡이다.  특히 보컬리스트 Mark Frisch는 "Come Alive"에 소울풀한 엣지를 선사하며 업리프팅한 신스 훅을 이끌고 있다. 또 한 명의 재능 있는 보컬리스트인 Molly Bancroft는 "Wanting"에 심플한 드라이빙 리프를 선사하며 세련된 프로그레시브 사운드를 보여준다. 'Dennis Sheperd' 자신이 운영하는 'A Tribute To Life'에서 발매된 정규앨범 [Fight Your Fears]의 Extended Mix들로 원곡에서 보여주지 못한 사운드와 진행으로 그만이 표현하고픈 완성도를 보여주며 아울러 디제잉에 꼭 알맞은 곡들로 구성하였다. 애절하면서도 동시에 신나는 곡들을 감상하면서 이 멋진 뮤지션의 지적이면서도 매력적인 모습을 감상하는 것도 큰 즐거움이 될 것이다.

'Dennis Sheperd' - [Fight Your Fears (Extended Mixes)]
After an intense 3 years in the studio perfecting its sounds, German DJ and producer 'Dennis Sheperd' proudly announced his second artist album: [Fight Your Fears] back in April this year. Released on his A Tribute To Life label on April 17th, it was the first ever crowdfunded trance album. Including exciting collabs with singer/songwriters Christina Novelli, JES, Ana Criado, Molly Bancroft, Katty Heath and many more, it marked the next step in Sheperd’s ever-thriving career. Now the Extended Mixes are available. 'Dennis Sheperd', known for his open-minded and melodic mix of progressive, trance and electro, set himself a high goal - to crowdfund an entire artist album on PledgeMusic. After months of promoting it, 'Fight Your Fears' made the target just in time. A big risk, but proven worth it. Dennis: "At one point I was almost giving up and thought I wouldn't reach the goal to crowdfund the release of this album. But my fans have made it possible and for that I will always be thankful!" The album includes 10 brand new originals and collabs, along with chart-busters such as "Bring You Home" ft. Chloe Langley, "We Are" ft. Sylvia Tosun, 'Two Worlds' with Talla 2XLC and [Edge of The World[.  The album title is a clear and powerful message of Dennis to his fans. "It tells them to widen their horizons, step out of their comfort zones and give new things and experiences a try." 'Fight Your Fears' is the long-awaited follow-up to Sheperd`s 2011 album 'A Tribute To Life', and in many ways shows the growth he`s been through as a fully-fledged artist. In the meantime, the Berlin-based musician has set up his own record label, performed his sets in over 20 countries and launched his own radio show. On April 17th, he adds the release of his second artist album to that list. And for that, he`s more than grateful. Dennis:" The production of this album has been an amazing journey. I was able to work with astounding talented people, some with whom I have also worked on the first album, and not only that: This album is also about new friendships all around the world! Music connects, not only the fans but also those who create it!"
