I had so much fun attending this years Luminosity Beach Festival in Holland, so much so that I adopted a Pink Flamingo called Flugelhorn. 

Alongside attending the renowned 4 day Trance festival, I was also selected to play at the Afterparty. Which was a little bit crazy and a complete roadblock on the Saturday. Apologies to the disappointed people who came down and couldn't get in when I was playing (I'll make it up to you Daniel and Bryony). 

For this set I played tunes that sum up the festival for me and it contains music from the likes of Jon O'Bir,  David Forbes, Armin Van Buuren, Above & Beyond, Solarstone, John O'Callaghan, Daniel Kandi, Ferry Corsten, Vincent De Moor and many more. I hope you enjoy the set as much as I enjoyed putting it together.

Big shout out to all the new and old faces I met over there, and for those of you who said I was crazy for driving there and back, you are absolutely right. There aren't many festivals that I would drive 16 hours each way for however, Luminosity is one of them. 

Much Love

William.

William Daniel x Luminosity 2024 Afterparty x Zandvoort NL x 29-06-24

Let me introduce myself. I'm an Old School Raver, Born in the 70's, Raised in the 80's, Raved in the 90's! In the 90's I went to Janey's in Gourock, Docklane in Greenock, The Metro in Saltcoats, The Fubar in Stirling, Rezerection in Edinburgh and Fantazia. 

Then I went into the wilderness as I married and had a family. 

In 2022 I got back into listening to Trance and in 2023 our friend Mallorca Lee had rave night in the Rave Cave in Paisley. I went there on my own and had a cracking night! I then went to his OTC 51st Birthday at The Classic Grand and had another great night. Then came 1994 where I really came back to the rave. You see, it never leaves you. Once a raver always a raver. I've met so many great likeminded people that are now more than friends, they are my extended family! 

I've been to 1994, Reunion, Rezerection, The Fubar, Sector Events Ruffneck and Lenny Dee nights. Even went to Manchester Forever. 

What a time to be alive again!! 

Last Christmas I bought some FLX 4's, and well for now it seems I love my classic trance. But I love it all so stay tuned folks, there will be more, much more from me! Rave to the Grave, Big Jeff xx P.S Did I mention I turn 50 in October :-) x

I started off listening to trance through a few Radio stations back in the 90’s which inspired me into mixing trance music for several years on Sound lab DLP’s then onto the Techy 1200’s I then progressed to Numark axis 9 for my first sample of digital before going onto CDJ’s around 2006, still playing classic trance vinyl and plenty of uplifting and driving modern day trance. Give me a follow and check out my classic and modern day sets, my passion for this genre will never dissapear!🔊🔊🔊

AKA - William Daniel

William Daniel’s passion for electronic music began at a young age, growing up in Scotland during the golden era of trance, techno, and house. His first exposure to underground music came through pirate radio, where he discovered the raw energy of unfiltered club sounds. Listening to these illicit broadcasts fueled his desire to become a DJ, and before long, he was making his own mixes and experimenting with turntables.

In his teenage years, William became involved in pirate radio himself, broadcasting underground dance music to local audiences. These early experiences sharpened his skills in track selection, blending genres, and understanding the energy of a set - skills that would later define his career. His dedication and natural talent behind the decks quickly led him into Scotland’s club scene, setting him on a path to becoming one of the country’s most respected DJs.

William’s career took off when he secured residencies at some of Scotland’s most iconic club nights, including Colours, Inside Out, and Freefall at the legendary Arches nightclub in Glasgow. The Arches was a cornerstone of UK clubbing, hosting world-class DJs and unforgettable nights. His ability to craft euphoric, high-energy sets made him a key figure in the club’s history, earning him a dedicated following.

His deep connection with The Arches lives on through his DJ sets and Forgotten Moments mix series, where he curates nostalgic sets featuring the classic tracks that defined the club’s golden era. These mixes have resonated with fans worldwide, keeping the spirit of the venue alive.

Beyond DJing, William has played a crucial role in the music industry through his work at 23rd Precinct Music, one of Scotland’s most respected independent music publishers and record stores. His experience at 23rd Precinct allowed him to gain deep industry insight, working alongside established artists, discovering emerging talent, and helping shape the trajectory of electronic music in the UK.

His work in A&R, label management, and music publishing at 23rd Precinct strengthened his influence in the scene, giving him a unique perspective on both the creative and business sides of the industry. Through this role, he contributed to the success of various artists and helped curate some of the best music releases in the dance genre.

In addition to his DJing and industry work, William has made significant contributions as a music journalist, writing for M8 Magazine and Beatsmedia.

M8 Magazine was one of the UK’s most respected dance music publications, covering global club culture, artist interviews, and the latest industry trends. William’s in-depth knowledge and firsthand experience made him a key contributor, delivering reviews, features, and exclusive insights into the world of electronic music.
Beatsmedia was an influential online platform dedicated to electronic music news, interviews, and features. As a writer, William helped promote emerging artists, reviewed major releases, and kept fans informed about the evolving dance music scene.
His work in journalism further solidified his industry expertise and credibility, allowing him to connect with both fans and professionals on a deeper level.

One of William’s recent standout achievements was his involvement in Vinyl Fantasy, a special event held at SWG3, one of Glasgow’s most renowned club venues. This sold-out show was a celebration of classic vinyl DJing, bringing together old-school energy with a modern audience.

As a passionate advocate for vinyl culture, William’s set at Vinyl Fantasy was a masterclass in mixing, track selection, and crowd connection, taking clubbers on a nostalgic journey through some of the most iconic records in dance music history. The event’s overwhelming success further cemented his reputation as a DJ who understands the essence of club culture and knows how to deliver a truly unforgettable experience.

Throughout his career, William has shared the stage with global dance music icons, including Tiesto, Paul van Dyk, Above & Beyond, Armin van Buuren, Ferry Corsten, and Marco V. His ability to blend uplifting trance, driving techno, and progressive house has made him a standout performer in the UK clubbing scene.

In addition to DJing, William has worked as a promoter, label manager, and journalist, using his extensive knowledge to support the dance music industry from multiple angles. His passion for electronic music extends beyond performance - he has played a key role in fostering talent, curating events, and keeping the clubbing culture thriving.

William’s DJing style is a fusion of classic and contemporary electronic music, with a strong influence from the golden age of trance and progressive house. Whether performing at a packed festival or an intimate club, he brings unmatched energy and connection to his audience, creating unforgettable experiences on the dance floor.

Despite the closure of The Arches, William remains an active and influential figure in the electronic music industry. His carefully curated mixes, live performances, and continued work within the music business ensure that his impact endures.

Being pretty new at playing the decks, JAX is slowly progressing whilst experimenting with different types of Genres. Although her passion lies with Trance, she is loving the progressive sounds of house and techno.

After joining the CRT course in April 2023, she started to participate in the CRT 5 Traxx Challenge, taking her out her comfortzone playing genres she would normally never listen to and learning how to do Mash-Ups.

JAX’s mixes are a combination of practice sessions, planned mixes, CRT 5 Traxx Challenge mixes and there is even a few of the cuff mixes - check out her latest off-the-cuff HI-LO track mix.

JAX first live debut night was at Edinburgh’s Compression on the 20th April 2024- a year after she signed up to the CTR on-line DJ course, something she thought was never possible! 

If you like any of JAX mixes please comment, like and share, and if you have any questions please PM her.
