A selection of Trance classics from Markus Schulz that was the cover CD for our April 2010 edition. 

Here's a track by track run through from the man himself:
Silvio Ecomo
'Standing'
Jinx Records
"The CD starts with a dark and tribal journey. I've always loved the percussion on this tune, and it was no surprise to see it become such an underground anthem in the UK, Dutch and German scenes."

Marco V
'Simulated'
ID&T
"Marco has produced a string of hits over the years, but he really struck gold with 'Simulated'. A track that has never left my CD case since the day it was put in there, and I still find myself playing it today, especially in my extended sets."

Space Manoeuvres
'Stage One (Solarstone Remix)'
Hooj Choons
"A homage to the Hooj Choons label which housed so many of the iconic tracks which have inspired the trance generation. This was one of my favorite tracks I discovered whilst living on Coldharbour Lane in Brixton around the millennium."

Rex Mundi vs Ronski Speed
'The Perspective Space (Markus Schulz Mashup)'
Coldharbour Recordings
"The track that made Rex Mundi a hero to all Coldharbour followers, and that was two years before 'Nothing At All' came along! I specifically made the mashup for my set at Trance Energy, but it went on to become one of the staples of my sets for many years, and I was delighted to legally release it through Coldharbour."

Tilt
'The World Doesn't Know'
Lost Language
"A special track for me; not just because of how often it gets requested for the annual year-end Global DJ Broadcast Classics Showcase, but also because it reminds me of having the privilege of DJing for The Gallery at the legendary Turnmills."

Bedrock
'Beautiful Strange'
Bedrock Records
"'Heaven Scent' and 'For What You Dream Of' quite rightly get all the plaudits as far as Bedrock is concerned, but 'Beautiful Strange' has always appealed to me thanks to its deep bassline and unique eeriness. A track that inspired me whilst attending Turnmills as a clubber."

Audioholics
'External Key'
Armada
"David West and Ozgur Can's amazing collaboration was a real Global DJ Broadcast anthem back in 2004, and a track which I still receive a lot of requests to play in my sets today. The build-up in the break never fails to give me chills."

Jose Amnesia feat Jennifer Rene
'Louder'
Armada
"I've wanted to work with Jennifer ever since hearing this track for the first time in 2006, and was delighted to have the opportunity to do so for my upcoming artist album."

Vincent de Moor
'Fly Away (Cosmic Gate Remix)'
Armada
"They say that you should never remix classics, but the world was delighted to hear Nic and Bossi breathe a new lease of life into 'Fly Away'."

Way Out West
'The Fall (Richard Durand Remix)'
Black Hole Recordings
"The original version of 'The Fall' remains one of my all time favorites, but Richard Durand's remix gives it that big-room feel. It is one of my traditional set finishers throughout my Gallery residency at Ministry of Sound, and a fitting choice to close out the CD."

Pre-order: https://fanlink.tv/Human_Material_EP

@ambient-babestation returns to @optimo-music with a second collaborative release, this time with Bristol's sound-obsessive @borai. Their three-track EP, titled 'Human Material', collides electro, UKG and techno with early ‘90s hardcore.

'Do Androids Dream of Key Lime Pie' is a nod to the unabashed glory days of ‘90s hardcore and frantic sampling. Dubbed-out low ends make way for dusty jungle breaks.

Premiere: Ambient Babestation Meltdown & Borai 'Do Androids Dream Of Key Lime Pie'

Pre-order: https://ffm.bio/rajirags

‘Congratulations’ is the debut EP from @rajirags on his OTIH Records label. A culmination of his influences merged together, the EP spans breakneck percussive rhythms across five tracks.

‘Bullet Train’ featuring @soniacalico is full of sharp corners and hi-hats that hiss, a breakdown that distorts bowed double bass beyond recognition, and stuttering note echos from Koto synths before returning back to the driving and shuffling Taiko and Darbuka drums.

Premiere: Raji Rags 'Bullet Train' (ft. Sonia Calico)
