Today i'm 40. Electronic music has been my area of interest since high school, after I discovered special radio programs. Listening radio weekend after weekend and spending weekly allowance on C-cassettes for recording lead the path into bedroom DJ'ing. After radio came internet and that change was divine - floodgates opened to start studying new music. This is THE Trance Mix. If Pete Tong asks me to build an Trance Essential Mix, these would be THE TRACKS. These are my all-time-favorite trance tracks. There is no better - this is it.
