How are you amazed they played Blue Fear? Didn't they hammer that ish back then plus have it on a NE comp??

I saw them at least a dozen times between 96 and 99 - hadn't heard them play blue fear once, and frankly they always played a lot harder than fluffy Dutch trance from experiences.

Could very well be but that they hammered it bit it's just not the specific deeper trance sound I always associated with them.

It's the last track on Northern Exposure 2. And most definitely not by Ferry Corsten.

Wait, you guys invented Dutch Trance before 1999? I have been missing something I guess.

Yeah, realised I wrote ferry when i meant armin. My bad.

Does anyone have any other live sets where they play blue fear? It's in the 140 range meaning that will be banging and I love those s&d sets.

Jesus someone needs to ID the opener!

Originally posted by Sand Leaper This is pretty much what Nick Warren did for three hours in this set, and it's great: He was playing at U60311 in Frankfurt later that day, which is where guys like DJ Rush and Chris Liebing would beat up crowds with schranz for about twelve hours on a regular basis. It sounds like the progressive house/trance guys adapted by putting the slider to around +4 in Germany during those years.

What a cracker of a set. And playing Lightspeed. Bomb. Simply a bomb.

Originally posted by SYSTEM-J They certainly weren't averse to donning the trance trousers when the occasion demanded, but despite having accrued a number of their sets from the Year Of Our Lord 1997, I've never heard either of them set their phasers to gurn and proceed merrily up the BPM count quite like this before.

They played like this live a lot more when it wasn't being recorded. Even at twilo late i.e. Early morning they would drop some plur trance. Great set this is btw. You can basically feel the drugs coming through lol.

This guy needs to come back

This was the golden age of prog trance. this set is timeless

I thought the first half of this set was great, and the second half terrible. They lost the flow and momentum they built up in the first hour and stared playing some really quesionable tunes.
