Wow, if I have to be honest, I didn't expect that kind of music when I downloaded it. This set is PERFECT for relaxing and chilling on a sunny day. Beautiful tracks with great melodies mixed excellent and creating a smooth flow throughout. I will surely listen to this again when the circumstances are better since atm the weather is rainy and I am sure the set will work a lot better for me when it's sunny. :)
Thanks for the share ! :) |
Cheers buddy!
Glad it pleasantly surprised you, its just sad that "trance" is such a dirty word to use when describing a mix nowadays. The stuff I like is proggy with trancey influences with a strong, underlying theme of melody and atmosphere. Well-thought out music produced with passion! Though such is the state of the trance scene nowadays, that I'm loathe(or even embarassed) to label my style trance anymore. Much easier just to say prog or house. Ho-hum!
Thanks again man:) |

WOW, what an amazing set! I wish it was longer though.
BTW, I can't find the Probspot or Keenan + Anderson track anywhere! |

| Very cool to get some short reviews of the tracks; always nice to see what people think of my work, and to see that there are people out there who appreciate the proggier side of trance, without demanding that it be fully "progressive trance". |

I don't even know what "progressive trance" is anyway! Just use that as a description because plain old "trance" seems to have bad associations nowadays.
Thanks for the comment mate, always enjoyed your releases, hope there are more in the pipeline:) |

Well yeah, I suppose the boundaries have become quite blurred over the years. I suppose the term "trance" today has been largely overtaken by "fluff" - that overly polished happy energetic generica; the old trance which was much more progressive in nature seems to have been pushed aside. I just like the old sound, with deeper chunkier bass, less hands in the air euphoria, and more repetitive vibes.
Definitely more stuff in the pipeline: a remix for Michael Splint, possibly more stuff for Alter Ego (have a remix coming out for them on May 5th), solo stuff (as well album), plus collaborations with Jonas Hörnblad, Macker, Will B and some others. |

I hear that. I love it when there is a really deep, dark and driving trance set that suddenly explodes in beautiful, euphoric melody. Today each track seems to lay it on so thickly sweet, they have lost all the subtleness in their clamour to produce the next melodic-lead monster instead of concentrating on the darker, building trancey sounds.

Best of luck with all those releases! |
