A very big welcome back to you. We are on episode 99 and it is another very special tribute mix dedicated to in my opinion the leading name in Orchestral trance today. Andy Blueman was our tribute last time but it is safe to say this one is now carrying the torch of orchestral trance. New World. The American producer has created some of the most glorious and most spectacular trance tracks and even if we lost Andy Blueman we certainly gained someone who I think is just as good as the Slovenian producer. New World is most famous for creating epic, sweeping emotional trance that touches your heart and soul in ways no other producer does. A producer that understands the classical arts and combining them with the energy and healing quality of trance. The results are just some of the most enchanting and deeply moving tracks you will ever hear. This is my tribute mix to another genius. New World.

A Way of Life 1 (Sep 12, 2015)

Please forgive my awful English voice. I like write and text it but it is sometimes difficult for me say it in words, especially for public music website. 

Hello friends and welcome back. I hope you have wonderful 2018 so far. This is the first episode of this year and it is a special one. I never before make Uplifting set with only Japan artists and producers so I decided create one.

Most songs in this set are maybe unknown to you because they are not really played outside Japan but I think I gather together the best and most beautiful trance songs from here. I hope you enjoy what it is in here.

Also first time in long long time I decided bring my voice to the show. I stop doing it because I thought always it not very important but because this is a collection of songs from my country I decided to speak in it. 

Enjoy dear friends and members of Trancefamily and Trancefamily Japan.
Have a lovely and peaceful day.

"私はいつも希望と笑顔で太陽を見上げます。私は私の人生が良いという知識で報いられます".

--------------Kaori Kataoka hails from Tokyo, Japan. She discovered Trance music when she was introduced to it by a European friend she met who was visiting her country. Ever since then she has fallen in love with this genre, but it is with the sub-genre of Uplifting and Orchestral Trance that she cherishes the most. Japan is a rising nation for Trance music now with artists like Hiroki Nagamine, Shintaro, Hiroyuki ODA, Masaru Hinaiji and more.  Kaori started her podcast "A Way of Life" on Soundcloud to show her love and support for this music because she strongly believes that beautiful things should be shared across the world. 

Trance music has a small community especially when one compares it to other electronic genres such as House or Dubstep and it is rare indeed to see a female Trance producer from Japan so it is with great surprise and joy that we have such a talented and enthusiastic young woman from Japan flying the flag of her country. Kaori's personal favorite artists are Manuel Rocca from Venezuela, Andy Blueman from Slovenia, Bernis from Japan, tranzLift from Czech Republic, Illitheas from Germany, Ronny K from Czech Republic and Kelly Andrew from USA

Outside of creating Trance sets on Soundcloud Kaori is a passionate Ballerina dancer and part time Fashion Model. A keen gamer you can follow her on Twitch.TV under the alias "petiteballerina".
