Can’t find my way 
There is no guiding light
Feels like I’m stuck here
On a never ending night

I turn and run
No sense of direction
Shadows on the walls
Like another dimension

Voices inside my head
Monsters under my bed
Sanity fades to grey
And I am swept away 

But then I realise
Nightmare within a dream
Cos in reality
Not all is what it seems

My mind is playing all these tricks on me
Don’t know what I believe
Looks they can be deceiving
Smoke and mirrors am I seeing things?
Could this be illusion
That’s taking over me

I’m paranoid
Constantly questioning
Everything around me 
Never letting anyone in

Tears of a clown
They just can’t help me now
Feels like I’m stuck inside a maze
And I can’t get out

Voices inside my head
Monsters under my bed
Sanity fades to grey
And I am swept away

My mind is playing all these tricks on me
Don’t know what I believe
Looks they can be deceiving
Smoke and mirrors am I seeing things?
Could this be illusion
That’s taking over me

Holding on
But letting go
Before I know
Everything’s gone

Another world
That’s far away
Which can explain
The unexplained

I wonder why
Is this my fate?
My destiny? 
What will I be

I close my eyes
I drift away
And live to die
Another day

My mind is playing all these tricks on me
Don’t know what I believe
Looks they can be deceiving
Smoke and mirrors am I seeing things?
Could this be illusion
That’s taking over me

My mind is playing all these tricks on me
Don’t know what I believe
Looks they can be deceiving
Smoke and mirrors am I seeing things?
Could this be illusion
That’s taking over me

Let the morning sun proclaim
The light of the world
Let the golden day unfurl
On every wave - on every hill
Each angered fist uncurl
Caress the hardest heart
Stir the sleeping earth
Each stone - each blade of grass
The soul of the world
Ignite a brand new day
Let the morning sun proclaim
A brand new start
Caress the hardest heart

Poem by Dame Anne Clark https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iTt7zTmt0Rg

This project was made possible with the inspiration of Dame Anne Clark! Thanks to her!
Have never noticed that I'm such a poetic soul? Believe me, I've surprised myself too! 😉
(Early 2005) Final take, featuring world renowned trance divas including Jan Johnston, Elles, Sinéad O'Connor, Sarah McLachlan, Alexis Strum, Christine Mangels & the beautiful voice of Anne Clark with tracks & remixes from legendary Blank & Jones, DJ QuickSilver, The Thrillseekers, Delerium, Cosmic Gate, Kay Cee, Randy Katana, Sam Sharp, Paffendorf, CJ Stone, Svenson & Gielen, Airscape, Pulsedriver...After having produced a series of nonprofit, non commercial, underground trance mixed compilations in collaborations with many talented global, local underground DJs/Producers (1999 to 2005), I came up with a series of Epic Trance mixed compilations CDs & this set is one of them!

Behind Trance scene: Track selection/order altered, revised from original version as two records mysteriously disappeared from the crates before live mixing session started! WTF? Worst thing could happen to any DJ besides trainwrecking their sets!  "Blessfully", my personal bodyguard Miss. Beretta had a day off that day, plus I just had graduated from anger management class otherwise it would have been a tragedy! 😉 Therefore everyone at the studio survived, emotionally survived! 😉 Technics MK5 model SL-1210M5G  turntables, Allen & Heath Xone:62 mixer, Pro Tool used...etc, records pops, hiss enthusiastically removed during final mastering process, solid mix converted to H.Q mp3 for your listening pleasure! Free download for your offline enjoyment! ✌️ Happy listening!

*** Roses for Miss Zorra https://soundcloud.com/misszorrarepost , our great friends Angelight, Eleonor Gustafsson, Ladies I have been connected here on SoundCloud, Ladies in this mix & Ladies listening to the mix! Dom Pérignon for everyone! Cheers! Don't drink and drive! You might spill the drink! 😉✌️

(Early 2004) Final take, first installment of my epic trance series featuring renowned global dance floor trance divas including  Zoë Johnston, Kirsty Hawkshaw, Elles, Bobolina, Skye, Carla Werner, Marcella Woods, Andrea Britton & the beautiful voice of Moya Brennan (Enya's older sister) In trance, it's not about the destination but it's about the journey and if that journey is found in this mix, that is when you're truly in a "state of trance"! I'm glad I've shared that journey with y'all!!!

Behind trance scene:
Rescued & survived from storage HDD data fatal crash due to hardware failure. All digital audio data including trance mixed compilations produced between 1999 to 2005 tragically lost in the crash! WTF? Shit happens! 😉 Since I've never gone clubbing, bars hopping, attending rave festivals, live music concerts and definitely not world cup matches 😉...etc, I don't remember much as time kept passing by so quickly and found myself at this world renowned club https://1015.com/ where I've heard that only world #1 DJs including Tiësto, PVD, AVB...etc, frequently had their gigs! (although guest DJ slot kindly offered to me several times but I declined) I was there giving away demo CDs of this mix to clubbers and same demo CD has been virtually shared with y'all since I joined SoundCloud early 2014!

The making of this mix: 
Records enthusiastically cleaned => live mixed using Technics MK5 model SL-1210M5G turntables, Allen & Heath Xone:62 mixer => recorded in real time using Pro Tools => Uncompressed solid mix rendered @ -6dB master bus => Individual tracks bounced, individually mastered, noise, records hiss, pops removed, time coded, text info input for CDs audio replication => Individual tracks glued using Ableton Live9 => Uncompressed solid mix rendered @ 0dB => SFX added, converted to H.Q mp3 for your listening pleasure!
