Our next mix comes from our recent guest from our Mad Friday party last year, @alexredmond. He takes on The Nomadic stage at Belfast’s @avafestival. Expect hard hitting house, trance and techno 🚀

Here’s what he said about the festival and his mix:

“Having been to the last two instalment’s of AVA, I can confidently say it has one of the best atmospheres I have experienced at a festival. The crowd are there for the music and do not stop dancing throughout the weekend. This creates a willingness for the artists to push themselves and put on a show.

Each stage has its own character and style, but my favourite stage has to be the famous boiler room stage which was called the Nomadic at last year's instalment. What makes this stage special is its ability to take complete control of the crowd at any time of the day. The scintillating pace of the music at this stage always has me at full tilt.

There can be a wide variety of music at this stage throughout the weekend, butt what makes it special for me is the Electronic and Techno music. With that being said I have put together a mix that best describes my experience of the Nomadic stage. It consists of songs I have heard there and would like to hear there in the future.”

Ok, let's just be honest. Tom is an impatient type. You can feel he is not having it. All that doom and gloom of the recent past, the feeling of being betrayed by things you cannot change for the better, however hard you try. And still you try. You could also say he is quite the escapist. He obviously believes in an utopia where people are buzzing on a club floor, free, happy and united. This is most probably why his music sounds how it sounds. It serves a purpose.
Tom also seems to be longing for his music to feature everything he likes, and due to said impatience he does not distribute his ideals and ideas to many different tunes, instead he aims to make them work in just a few tunes. And how they do work. They work so well in fact, that fulfilling this purpose mentioned above is not theoretical in the slightest.
Wailing divas singing to divas, all pride and joy? Check. Pumping kick drums and bass like they do not do this anymore? Check. Euphoric pianos like only Italians could imagine Chicago would sound? Check. Pad drama to counter the punch? Check. Acid to the highest point of intensity? Check. Asking an admired artist for a remix that gives a whole other spin on it, and still works as well, like in this was just meant to be? Check! 
You'd might agree that the man accomplished his mission so well that he could get some rest, but better not bet on it.
