if you think you're listening to techno here, then by the sounds of it you're probably rocking out to a blind melon cd right now

Congrats to my friends Matt Cerf, Shawn and Jaren.
This year, still kickin it...

90's metal. FUCK YEAH MAN!

haha... raver, that's funny, you are complaining about techno on a trance board. Ah well, I can understand your point.

Honestly, I boycotted the poll this year because I'm tired of the lame bias to year end tunes. Its like the first half of the year didn't even happen, outside of tracks that corresponded to two certain albums. Just for reference, I'll post release dates on this list from the main page.

it is all over the place, there are some good tracks. i would not listen to this but i think it will work for the massive where there is diverse crowd.

at NYE, he will probably play something like his last ASOTs.

1st part of ASOT 2008 yearmix is pretty bad, second part is so so. that's what i would expect at NYE.
