The track was released in April 07, and also features on the 'Weapons of Mass Creation 3' CD release in in the same month. Andy C has also picked it up for his latest acclaimed D&B Arena Mix release.
Apex will be pushing his sound primarily through the pioneering Lifted Music collective, with his debut EP, Wall Of Sound just released at the end of may.

Plus "Same Old Blues" has caught the attention of Andy C once again and appears on the huge Nightlife 4 compilation cd. Lifted have already caused shockwaves throughout the scene with their tearing debut release The Prologue, and Spor's Supernova plus the collaboration EP which was released in Jan 2008...in which Apex features on the Andy C favourite "Dirge".
"Falling" and "Weeping Willow" on the Horizons Music Label has just been fully released. "The Yearning (Apex VIP)" backed with "By The Way", and the "Bachelors of Science - Strings Track - Apex Remix" (also on Horizons Music) will be dropping in the coming summer months.
