What do you mean "I don't like trance anymore"?

Greetings.

Ah, beautiful rave hedonism.

Anyways, time for another 2-hour installment in my "nobody plays it the way I like so I guess I'll just have to play it myself"-series of trance sets, where I try to avoid anthems and breakdowns in favor of proper set structure and actual danceability. This one didn't turn out as melodic as usual, but in return, it has loads of yummy percussion and bass. I think most of you know how I approach things with these sets by now, so without further ado, here it is:

Been a long time since I heard that in a mix

Some other great tracks too. DLing.

there is some of the few trance tracks that i do listen to still in this set so in.

Posted by SYSTEM-J on Dec-11-2009 00:57:

Zircon - System is such a fucking bomb. I've been championing that track for a while now so good to see other people recognising it.

Will definitely be listening to this.

Curious to listen to this. Looks promising.

Posted by Seppuku on Dec-12-2009 04:55:

Loved the minimal mix, in this one for sure.

Posted by THE_Chris on Dec-12-2009 10:46:

Lets ave it

Posted by Lews on Dec-12-2009 10:47:

And people question why trance is called trance..

Amazing tracks, great mixing, a fantastic reminder of why we all came to a forum called trance addict.

Brilliant work, will definitely be giving this one a lot more listens.

well done, i liked it alot

Posted by SYSTEM-J on Dec-13-2009 20:12:

Mostly a very good set. Started off very well, lost my interest slightly around the hour mark but then pulled it back again shortly after that. Nicely structured - you seemed to build it up and then bring it down again to quite a reserved finish - and the mixing was pretty good. I know you use Traktor, but I still think you have quite a distinct and interesting mixing style, where you're not afraid to layer busy parts of tracks. The only bad transition I found was the one into Beatprayer - Message, which clashed a bit.

Gracias for listening everyone, 'tis appreciated.

Yeah, I more or less had to shoehorn Message in there. It has literally no intro and runs for about 4 mins, so mixing it is a huge pain. I think it worked pretty well into Zircon, though.

As Lady Gaga would say:

...this beat is sick, I wanna take a ride on your disco stick.

Lovin' the techy part in the middle.

I'll take a ride on his disco stick.

DLing now, looks delicious.
