Yahel - Voyage

tho not very original i guess, still a bloody good starter.

Surely the whole point of Voyage is to be played in the middle of an uplifting set as one of the peaks?

Mark Norman - Touchdown would be great i think. Alternatively, maybe Armin and G&B - ZoCaLo?

I say use it as a filler for peak hour. If you're going to play a 2 hour set, a song like that is too hi NRG to start off with and by the time you get to peak hour, the crowd will be bored.

Great track.

I normally start of my sets with melodic proggy stuff and then gradually progress into trance but if you are going for a whole set of all uplifting trance, one that I enjoy is:

Whiteroom - The Whiteroom (Scott Bond vs XTR's 'Jump The Next Train' Intro Edit)

isnt the "point" of one tune a highly subjective matter? Imo theres no right or wrong time when to play a track as long as it fits in as a whole. I do understand that the traditionalists would play it later in their sets.. but hey, i am not one.

one springs to mind straight away, obviously moonshine, but

Viframa - Cristalle (Katana's Intro Mix)

Going along the lines of the Jump The Next Train into Whiteroom idea....

It would be cool to start off your set with "The Auranaut - People Want To Be Needed (Sunrise Mix)" and then mix in something else... it's a nice 4 minute percussion-less mix that is very chill and uplifting when mixed in with a proper song afterwards.

props to rapidfire for recommending "go". love that as an intro track!

you could always just go with the original mix of People Want To Be Needed as well....

My personal favs of this moment are nice as starters to warm things a little bit up:

1. Giuseppe Ottaviani - Linking People
2. Icon Pres. Blue Manta - I Feel Lost (Under Sun Remix)

That's absolutely great tune to start set

Posted by RapidFire on Dec-15-2005 08:13:

another one (for nearly any set really);

Cosmic Baby - Sketches In Spring

has that dramatic yet uplifting vibe.

Posted by eFeKz on Dec-15-2005 09:17:

Arizona vs Passiva - Halo (Original & Danjo & Styles Mix) [which ever u prefer, i like the danjo mix better]

Kaste - Desert Eagle (Original Mix)

my 2 cents.

Nu Nrg - Take Your Air

That's totally the song that got my into trance.

Maybe the main part is too energetic... I dunno. You can always cut it off after the first part with the riffs.
Teh nevb! I love the song though!
