got turned onto sasha when he put xpander on the soundtrack for the playstation game wipeout xl. been hooked ever since. its still my fav. track.
peace

I agree with floorfiller when he said sasha is consitant. I rarely met any Sahsa fans who complain about his work as I have seen with Tiesto, PVD, Armin,Paul Oakenfold, Schulz ,etc. Either you love him or you hate him. Enjoying Sahsa is like enjoying Tuscan Red Wine. Its an acquired taste. But once you discovere him you can never think about music production or dj'ing the same. He is honestly that f#ckin good.

You listen to his production, his mixes, and you go see him live and there is no surprises. He has been true to progressive for many many years. He has always been a pioneer for the progressive genre; not only in his productions but also when hes behind the decks.


This man is a class act.


I think im going to join the Sasha fan club now

yes im guessing there is, the russians call anyone who's name is alex, Sasha...so im guessing Sasha whos real name is alexander took that idea and made it his DJ name.....which is a fuckin awsome DJ name if u ask me!

and i totaly agree with Dave Piazza on that once u discover Sasha and his sound u just CANT GET ENOUGH OF IT!!! once i saw him live i totaly forgot the word TRANCE!

PS: i cant wait to fucking see him again on the 23rd in LA, he's with Jimmy van M, and Anne Savvage afterhours!!! kinda weird line up if u ask me but hey im not complaining

I enjoy listening and expereincing different moods within electronic dance music. I dont think I will abandon trance becuase imo each genre creates a certain mood. All genre have energy but its the mood of the energy that differiates trance from say prog.

I personally find listening to progressive as a method for me to sharpen my listening and evaluation skills when i listen to trance. I have become more keen in listening to the progressions, the synths,bassline ,the overall groove, etc.


For me listening to other forms of EDM is like traveling across Europe. You encouter different tastes, customs, culture,language, etc. The more you travel across the continent the more you begin to appericate the beauty of its complexity. you begin to think and understand the world differntly. This imo is what listening to progressive, trance, and other forms of EDM has done for me.

Sasha still rules, he's still innovating which is fantastic stuff especially when you hear how tired some of the other dj's who've been around sound now. Involver is fantastic, just been rereleased CD in the UK with a second cd of Sasha remixes from last ten years or so ... Also his mix of Felix Da Housecat is knocking around on a promo/white label now.

I know not everyone does but I still love AirDrawnDagger too

As Noree said earlier in the thread the Russians call anyone who is named Alex "Sasha" as his real name is Alexander Coe. This is maybe where this name came from. Though I have read somewhere that he was originally going to call himself "Sash" but that German guy got there before him so he just stuck an "a" on the end of it. I have also read that Alexander Coe is not Sasha's real name but an alias (his real name is supposed to be Mark Donovan though I don't know if this is true).
