So, I'm a metal fan. But sometimes dial in to DI.FM to spice up my life. So, I get into my car, hit the DI.FM, I see Chronicles are on and .... Tilt my face as I hear Trivium. But boy did I enjoy it!

Live October 24’ @SVG w/ Tim Green

Our next guest is a band who’s recently had the privilege of celebrating 20 years of their debut album and till date, remain one of our favourite live metal acts. Yes, we have metal on Chronicles - as always, expect the unexpected!
 
We recently had the pleasure of seeing them selling out the o2 in London earlier this month, as they were co-headlining with another Juggernaut act, who will be on next week, that also debuted their first album exactly 20 years ago too.

They are currently touring Europe and shall be doing American & Asian dates later this year too. Playing only those 2 specific albums. And if you have yet to experience them live, you’re in for a treat. A must for all metal fans.

There is so much we can say about them and also, witnessing them live - not only was the entire crowd in unison singing their songs, they were surgically aware of each drum lick and guitar riff in every composition.

It was Kerrang's album of the year upon its release in 2005. 
It later made Metal Hammer's top 100 Metal Albums of the 21st Century and Kerrang's 21st Century Greats. And not just as die hard fans, it was absolutely a no brainer to celebrate them in this mammoth landmark in their careers. 

So without further ado, we present to you – Trivium, with an album special on their 20th anniversary of their debut album – Ascendancy!

Chronicles Curates : Trivium (Ascendancy)

"Spending 7 wild days and nights in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by amazing strangers in the dust, experiencing one of the most amazing moments of this incarnation, I was grateful for this epic journey. Playing in front of the Man’s burn, watching the flames and feeling my tears were running down my face."

Loot Radio 054: Death on the Balcony

Equal parts nostalgia and innovation, Khen’s emotionally rich productions — rooted in progressive, shaped by house, and tinted with techno — have made him a standout on dancefloors that demand more than just a drop. That finely tuned sensibility makes him the ideal choice to set the tone for our Balance Croatia pre-party with Deep Dish at Barbarellas.

Khen will perform at Balance Croatia 2025.

BALANCE CROATIA

At the start of 2025, we released the epic three-track EP Sunday’s Memory from George X, a deep, main-room progressive journey that solidified his evolving sound. George’s music is both introspective and expansive, tracing a path from his small-town roots in Xanthi to collaborations with the likes of Roy Rosenfeld and Behrouz. Subtle yet emotionally rich, his tracks have caught the ears of global tastemakers, earning support from John Digweed, Hernan Cattaneo, Lee Burridge, and many more.

On this Balance Selections mix, the Greek producer proves he’s just as skilled behind the decks as he is in the studio. Featuring tracks from Volen Sentir, Hermanez, and a healthy dose of his own productions, this is 60 minutes of high-grade progressive dance music.
