DARK, MYSTERIOUS, MOODY & ENERGETIC. A fusion of Psytrance & Techno. These Mixcloud DJ Shows all Charted in Global Dark Psytrance, Techno-Trance & Progressive Trance Top 10 Mixcloud Charts. On the Local NZ Mixcloud Top 50, no less than 8 of the Top 15 Dj Shows were occupied by one of my mix shows. I think of ALCHEMYST as being a watershed since it's when I finally found "my sound" as a Dj. 

Alchemyst Series

An original Techno Trance remix of Gareth Emery's Saga. Added a dose of Acid to the mix & a fairly relentless mid-Tempo beat.

Psychonaut's Saga (Saga Acid Trance Remix)

1st full length Original Live Set, composed, arranged & performed by Varangian.

For the most part it's "Peak Time Techno / Techno Trance" kind of vibe.
This time I've bucked my recent trend of endeavouring to include Ethnic, Organic or Vocal elements in favour of a Electro & Synth Bass groove. 

I'm hoping I'll improve at this style relatively quickly, it's not as easy as you may think; playing freestyle for almost an hour with only one or two errors. 

I've had to explain to a couple of folks that this isn't a DJ Mix Set. It's a Live Performance using the original & licensed  Audio Resources at my disposal. 

Guardsman's Vigil (Live Set Performance)

Ambition

Full On 4 Track Decks, mostly all spinning & with faders raised for large portions of the mix. Using Encoder knobs on my M23 as Pan Pots & FX Send Wet/Dry Pots.
I've been using the new Controllers for 90mins (recorded not "prep") & I'm familiarizing with the Sensitivity of the inputs.

Sonic Alchemy

Deep Tech House Dj Mix Set Paradox Part 1 (Upramp).
Most of this part of the full Paradox Set is fairly mellow, with only 2 Track Decks required early + sample looper.
Builds in Tempo gradually from 124bpm - should ideally be unnoticeable, since hour 2 runs 128-132bpm, I need to work it up to that point.
