I'm not really familiar with a lot of the styles you mentioned, but I know what I like to hear when it comes to prog and uplifting trance: long transitions. Not ever single mix has to be long and drawn out, but I love to hear a good build up to the next song.

How are you suppose to mix for uplifting, trance, tech trance and hard trance?

I mix all of those types of trance. Mostly hard trance and club trance though. I try to make most of my mixes 30 seconds to a minute. I do love it when I have a mix that goes a minute or even over a minute! That's awesome! You gotta have the right tracks for that though.

For sure! Sometimes I just listen to the transition's of a mix over and over because I think it's such an awesome part.

Ex: Tranceport 1998 -> Age of Love

I love hearing outtro's being mixed with build ups; it's just so cool when the phrasing is all matched up.

It's so sweet to hear your favorite tune being mixed in, and then when it finally kicks in you're like "Oh Shit!"
