One fav of mine would be:

Yahel - Voyage

tho not very original i guess, still a bloody good starter.

Surely the whole point of Voyage is to be played in the middle of an uplifting set as one of the peaks?

Mark Norman - Touchdown would be great i think. Alternatively, maybe Armin and G&B - ZoCaLo?

I say use it as a filler for peak hour. If you're going to play a 2 hour set, a song like that is too hi NRG to start off with and by the time you get to peak hour, the crowd will be bored.

Great track.

I normally start of my sets with melodic proggy stuff and then gradually progress into trance but if you are going for a whole set of all uplifting trance, one that I enjoy is:

Whiteroom - The Whiteroom (Scott Bond vs XTR's 'Jump The Next Train' Intro Edit)

isnt the "point" of one tune a highly subjective matter? Imo theres no right or wrong time when to play a track as long as it fits in as a whole. I do understand that the traditionalists would play it later in their sets.. but hey, i am not one.

one springs to mind straight away, obviously moonshine, but


Viframa - Cristalle (Katana's Intro Mix)

Going along the lines of the Jump The Next Train into Whiteroom idea....

It would be cool to start off your set with "The Auranaut - People Want To Be Needed (Sunrise Mix)" and then mix in something else... it's a nice 4 minute percussion-less mix that is very chill and uplifting when mixed in with a proper song afterwards.

props to rapidfire for recommending "go". love that as an intro track!

you could always just go with the original mix of People Want To Be Needed as well....

thought of some more... i'll caveat this by saying some are old, some are new...

Interstate - I Found You (Original - AVB ASOT 2005 Intro Mix)
Dibaba - Hold You (Agoria's 'Bear' Mix)
Grayarea - Gravity (Grayarea's Albatross Mix)
Anything Tastexperience.... Aqua Sun, Highlander, Tantrix, Summersault
The Space Brothers - Shine (Planet Heaven "Shine On" Remix)
Albion - Air
Alibi - Eternity
Blacklight - Daydream
Grace - Not Over Yet (Breeder's It Is Now Remix)
Holden & Thompson - Nothing (93 Returning Mix)
Human Movement - Love Has Come Again (Original Mix)
Ian Brown - F.E.A.R. (U.N.K.L.E. Mix)
Markus Schulz Presents Elevation - Clear Blue (Intro Mix)
Moogwai - Viola (either Original or AVB remix)
Motorcycle - As The Rush Comes (Armin Van Buuren's Universal Religion Mix)
Nickelson - Yin (Solid Globe Remix)
Oakenfold - Hold Your Hand (Hamel 4/4 Remix)
Orkidea - Unity
Riva - Time Is The Healer (Armin Van Buuren Vocal)
Slam - Lifetimes

My personal favs of this moment are nice as starters to warm things a little bit up:

1. Giuseppe Ottaviani - Linking People
2. Icon Pres. Blue Manta - I Feel Lost (Under Sun Remix)
