LXJ B2B Andrew Sharpe - Trance Sanctuary NYD 2016 @ Egg RECONSTRUCTED

My first time back at 414 in nearly a year, and happy with the spread of music I managed to get in for the opening set. Sasha, Guy J and Joris Voorn to Robert Nickson, Neptune Project and Paul van Dyk... It hopefully covered the bases between prog and trance quite nicely.

Andrew Sharpe - TRANCElucid @ Club 414 - 30/06/2017 RECONSTRUCTED

I knocked up a quick reconstruction of my set from last night's Lost Society night at the Hare & Hounds in Kings Heath. Tried to keep all bases covered with a prog house set before me, a techno set afterwards and a crowd who, if we're honest, were mainly there for a bit of trance...

01. Cristoph - Epoch (Original Mix) [Pryda Presents]
02. The Thrillseekers pres. Hydra - Amber (Vintage & Morelli Extended Remix) [FSOE Parallels]

Lost Society @ Hare & Hounds - 09/02/2018

Andrew Sharpe - Lost Society @ Hare & Hounds - 09/02/2018 RECONSTRUCTED

It's a long time since I uploaded a mix, so I dug this out of my Rekordbox histories and decided to put it together, as it was a selection I'd really enjoyed playing at the time. Although this was the opening set of a TRANCElucid event, it was actually carrying straight on from a private hard house party that had been going on at 414 during the day. There didn't seem much sense in emptying a dancefloor that was already reasonably busy, so I had to go hard(ish)...

01. X-Cabs - Neuro 99 (Original Mix) [Hook Recordings]
02. The Noble Six - Black Star [Pure Trance]
03. Project 8 pres. Shane Kinsella - Fading Away [Vandit Records]
04. Cold Blue - Speed Of Life [Subculture]
05. M.I.K.E. Push - Life Row [FSOE]
06. Emmanuel Top - Acid Phase (Greg Downey Remix) [CD-R]
07. M.I.K.E. - Turn Out The Lights (Hiver & Hammer Remix) [Armind]
08. Giuseppe Ottaviani - Jakarta [GO Music]
09. Lava - Autumn (Megamind Mix) [BXR]
10. EverLight - Microgravity [FSOE Clandestine]
11. Peter Steele - Nirvana [Lost Language]
12. Ferry Corsten - I Love You (Original 2003 Version) [Flashback]
13. Signum - Euphoric Hope [Who's Afraid Of 138?!]
14. Paul van Dyk & Pierre Pienaar - Stronger Together [Vandit Records]
15. Activa - Labyrinth [GO Music]
16. Paul Oakenfold - Full Moon Party (Skylex Remix) [Perfecto Fluoro]

TRANCElucid @ Club 414 - 23/06/2018

Andrew Sharpe - TRANCElucid @ Club 414 - 23/06/2018 RECONSTRUCTED

Another one resurrected from my Rekordbox histories, and what turned out to be the final time I played Club 414 in Brixton before its sadly enforced closure last year. This was back to my relative comfort zone of a progressive opening set, but ramping up the pace and the tranciness somewhat towards the end.

01. Jerome Isma-Ae & Alastor - Timelapse (Extended Mix) [Jee Productions]
02. Remake - Blade Runner (Maceo Plex Renaissance Remix) [Renaissance]
03. Jamie Baggotts - Sacrifice (Original Mix) [Forescape Digital]

Andrew Sharpe - TRANCElucid @ Club 414 - 27/10/2018 RECONSTRUCTED

Unfortunately, the Twitch livestream itself wasn't saved, so here's a reconstruction of the set instead. There's obviously no longer a live video with it of me looking awesome behind the decks so, if you want visual accompaniment, just close your eyes and use your imagination.

The flyer said 'Underground Progressive - Techno - Trance', so I tried to cover off all three bases.

01. Tim Penner - Ascension [JOOF Recordings]
02. ZOYA - Bright Star [Pure Progressive]
03. Protoculture - Shine [A State Of Trance]
04. We Are Loud feat. Katie DiCicco - On The Run (Ferry Corsten Remix) [Flashover Recordings]
