Kirsty’s Trance House-Party which was my first time playing to a bigger group.🙌🏽🎶

Reworked Classics

SCOTT BOND - LOSTWEEKEND: INSOMNIACZ REBOOTED - 14 JUNE 2025
[DOWNLOAD > PLAY > SHARE!!!]

The sun was blazing, the beats were pounding and Nottingham was on fire (not literally, thankfully) as the LostWeekend took over the banks of the River Trent! This incredible all-day festival brought together some of the biggest names in the scene and it was an absolute treat to step behind the decks and inject some Trance magic on the Insomniacz REBOOTED stage.

This one was special and was more than just a set – it was a moment. The vibe was pure euphoria, and the Insomniacz and REBOOTED brands, once again raised the bar. My set was crafted with care – a potent blend of original Trance classics, fresh reworks and a few long-lost forgotten gems pulled from the archives to keep the energy riding high and the crowd completely locked in.

The atmosphere? Exuberant. The production? Top shelf. The crowd? Unstoppable. Seeing so many familiar faces and new fans alike coming together to lose themselves in the music reminded me of why we do what we do – to create lasting memories through the power of Trance.

If you were there, you will know exactly what I mean. And if you missed it - fear not. Here’s a copy of the set to enjoy at your leisure, especially during these scorching summer days when you need a little sonic boost to lift your soul. ☀️🔊

Eternity

Short Story

In the year 3047, Earth is silent. The oceans have stilled, the cities have dimmed, and humanity has vanished into the stars. But orbiting the planet is a lone satellite—an ancient relic from the early 21st century—still broadcasting a signal into the void.

Inside it, a single track loops endlessly: Eternity. A trance anthem encoded with the memories of a generation that dared to dream beyond gravity. It was written by two artists who believed music could transcend time, a sonic beacon for anyone, anywhere, who might still be listening.
One day, light-years away, a drifting vessel intercepts the signal. Its pilot—a synthetic being with no heartbeat but a soul shaped by frequencies—hears the track and feels something impossible: nostalgia. The rhythm awakens visions of Earth, of dance floors under neon skies, of love that defied decay.

Guided by the melody, the pilot sets course for the origin. Not to reclaim the past, but to honor it. To remix it into something new. And as Eternity plays once more, the stars pulse in sync, and the universe remembers.

Born in the hot summer of 1979, I grew up in the center of The Netherlands. At the age of 12 I discovered the wonderful new genre of House music. Still a schoolboy, I used all my pocket money to buy cassette tapes of famous Dutch house compilations like Move The House, Turn up the Bass & House Party. In the following years several new subgenres emerged, in which the melodic ones were my favourites. That means lots of Eurodance, and instead of the popular Dutch Hardcore, I chose for German Rave and Hardtrance. That combination of powerful beats with lots of melodies was golden and formed my music taste.

Some years through genres like Dream House, Club Trance and the famous Pizzicato house followed and the first Trancemaster! CD’s were collected. And then the year 1999 came, I discovered a strange imported English mix compilation called Gatecrasher:Wet
It contained a wonderful combination of trance tracks from all over Europe. At that moment I started to save some money for buying my first turntables. When I bought my first 2 belt drive turntables and a basic mixer a new world opened. The world was far less international so it was quit a challenge to get those gems from abroad. In 2005 this trance addiction was expanded with producing my own tracks with the then brand new FruityLoops software. Exploring all ranges of trance music my production portfolio is very diverse, like all the different music styles I like to play. 

Being a bedroom producer and DJ for many years my collection grew to about 2500 records ranging from deep progressive house to hardtrance. Around 2007/2008 vinyl records stopped being the main medium for electronic music and things were getting all digital. Missing the fun part of buying and spinning part of records, together with a changing sound of trance made that spinning music was not on my highest rank anymore. But although not too active, this was the period that I discovered harmonic mixing, which still forms the base of all my mixes. By combining the harmonies of different tracks, my mixes are full of homemade mash-ups and by using the harmonic mixing wheel I try to make one continuous journey through harmonies.

In these years my turntables and record collection were gathering dust. I still followed the trance scene sideways and made an occasional mix (with Virtual DJ) or track. In 2018 something changed. I decided to go to a trance festival again after 15 years, so me and my friends made a trip to Luminosity Beach Festival 2018. I was overwhelmed by the fact that this scene was so much more alive than I expected. Especially the fact that there were so many DJ’s that still played those classic trance tracks. Inspired by those sets I decided to upload some of my older mixes on my SoundCloud page for all those classic trance lovers. 

In the past 4 years I created my own themes for my mixes, some modern ones but lots of classics. For example my yearbooks in honour to those golden years of trance. My Exhibition of Classic Trance does reflect my personal taste the best, those mixes are always more than 3 hours to ensure a complete journey through different styles of trance. My personal favourite series is Hidden Treasures, which completely consists of all those hidden gems from back in the days. Of course I love the obvious classics, just as much as all trance lovers, but mixes with only the well-known classics are sometimes a bit exchangeable. With these hidden treasures I can let people discover tracks they never heard of and be more unique. It’s my pleasure to provide you all with a broad range of trance music.
