ROFL .. no!
Jumping Jack plays hard "trance" .. remember he's one of the sublime residents - they may call it trance, but it certainly isn't :whip:
But if he's going to play a decent trance set I'll be interested to hear it .. gunna keep an open mind! Just better not be let down like Nervous at Transmission :mad: |

I've heard a bit of his demo; it's not hard trance. It's the same style as we all own and love, and the same style you'd expect from Halcyon.
Don't worry guys, he'll be very good ;)

As I said, I'll be interested to hear it if he's not going to play stomping hard Subbies music.. :) |

Hehe Jumping Jack... I'd be interested in listening to a non-hard trance set from him. Just like the other sublime residents (Nik Fish, Pee Wee) he's been around for quite a long time since the rave days around 10 years ago and used to play hardcore/happy hardcore and the trance that was out before the European uplifting stuff became so popular... trance was a little more strange and obscure back then (e.g. Commander Tom - Are am eye?).
I had met Jumping Jack in 1995 at The Rooftop (in Kings Cross) and he was playing stuff like Dyewitness, Alien Factory etc - the classic rave stuff. An old friend (who is now probably in prison or dead [those were the kinds of friends I had back then]) had organised an event there.
All the old-time DJs seem to be stuck on hard trance now, I guess it still sells.
So it would be a breath of fresh air to hear a melodic uplifting trance set from such an old-time DJ. |

I had a good night at Halcyon, after some month-long trance hiatuses. I was feeling pretty mentally whacked, but it was fun.
It was good to see the usual crew and meet a few new people.
My friend was still peaking away so it was weird to be finishing early.
Was YTraxx - Mysteryland played? I thought I heard it mixed with Chicane - Halcyon.
I also loved Mike Shiver - Feelings, and the remixes of Motorcycle - As the rush comes in and Andain - Beautiful things.
What was the track with the wailing vocal sample that's in Push - Strange world? |

Hey all,
Massive thanks to everyone who came down! I had a sensational evening, probably one the most enjoyable Halcyon's I have had so far!!
Regarding JJ! We wouldn't even think of booking him if we didn't think he was going to deliver a style and sound consistent to what Halcyon is about. As has been said JJ has been around for a very long time and he is very keen to be getting back to playing a more uplifting sound however, he presently has no avenues in Sydney in which he can do that! We are giving him that opportunity and i encourage you to all come along with an open mind! I guarantee his set will rock...just ask any one who went to John 00 Fleming and heard what he played that night...JJ will be the goods:) I guarantee it:)
cheers guys

| JJ used to play decent stuff at progress a couple of years ago, before they signed exclusive contracts for sublime. Of course bing tied to subs every week is going to force you to play a certain style. And following diggs, morro and mr darey, the mould will be well set for him by then. |
