    Press Reviews
    Various Reviews:Ministry Magazine (U.K.)Thomas Penton - Sidewinder (Inversus)US label continues its quest for western domination. First we get a slab of the finest pumping progressive then euphoric breakdowns, building baselines and sweeping strings. The remix is provided by the hot Excession who take it deeper yet retain the uplifting feel. Watch out, the Yanks are about. SPTribe Magazine (Canada)Thomas Penton - Sidewinder (Inversus) Hot off "Earthbound", Inversus keeps up its momentum with the excellent "Sidewinder". Some of you will know the name Thomas Penton by now through his work on Eve, Pure Music, Fade, Inductive, & XSF Records. With "Sidewinder", Penton has created a monster with a devastating, spine tingling, echoing chord which rumbles in the background. A the track progressively builds, it gains more and more energy before ultimately crashing into a smoothing, minimal & melodic break. Definitely one for those peak time moments.....Already deep in the boxes of Lee Burridge, Seaman, Warren, Pappa & Cass....just to name a few. This one is a must. Keep an eye out for this label cause this is only the beginning. Big! 9/10Mixer Magazine (U.S.)Thomas Penton - "Time Lapse/Lost Soul" (Fade Records)Hardly a few seconds go by without the uncompromising rhythm storming through. At 142 BPM, "Lost Soul" is fast, but maintains an uplifting vibe through its lofty pads and harmonic fills. It establishes a groove and stays with it, adding layers as it develops. "Time Lapse" is a darker track, with its whip lie snare and large, menacing stabs. An elusively brief melody dives in and out during different parts, while the foundation chugs along strong. Two excellent pieces of cutting edge progressive trance from this Ft.Lauderdale native. URB Magazine (U.S.)Thomas Penton - "Time Lapse/Lost Soul" (Fade Records) - Ft. Lauderdale native Thomas Penton has been producing electronic music for eight years on his own label Resonance Records. This time around, for his debut on Fade, he delivers a tasty double A side of melodic, dance floor friendly trance. "Lost Soul" is a well thought-out track that builds nicely, keeping a pulsating groove from beginning to end. "Time Lapse" adds a bit more percussion and hard edge synthesizers, while maintaining a similarly hypnotic feel.Devox Magazine (U.S.)Thomas Penton "Time Lapse/Lost Soul" (Fade Records) - Thomas Penton was making progressive house/trance music in south Florida way before it was the cool thing to do, but now the world is gonna know it! Penton turns out two extremely well produced tracks on the Fade imprint. Both, "Lost Soul" and "Time Lapse" take the listener on a journey through bubbling basslines and slippery melodies, all the while keeping the intensity up and never looking back. Look out for more from this artist on his own label Inductive.
