Finally finished! New file uploaded 10/30/2024

This mix is dedicated to Gareth Emery, a major influence on my passion for trance, especially the vocal genre. I always loved vocal trance since a young teenager, along with the fun eurodance beats and singing. When I first discovered Gareth's songs, I was living in NYC, and saw him live at Pacha at least three times. His sets were amazing experiences for me and his tracks deliver that heavenly touch we all need. Thank you Gareth for all you've done! 

The MetaMix series is 7 total parts - inspired by my 30 years of loving trance music. These are not your average mixes. They are greatly inspired by the 1990's, along with the "megamix" movement of Eurodance. Those sets were not mixed by "blending" as longer trance tracks were, they were hard turns and quick flips. So.. that is what you'll get here. It allows for a lot more options with surprises and reduces "build up and cool down" phases. 

As such, this is coming out of a heart of loving trance for 30 years. If I were to put that all into seven mixes.. that would equal this series. I want these to be a gift to the world, inspiring healing for others. They are designed like the mixes of old, to listen from the beginning to end in one sitting, not as a party mix, but as a journey of sound, spirit and emotion, with a goal and a resolution. That is what these mixes are, a gift of healing. 

Each MetaMix's tracks are carefully selected as a representation of my favorites, throwbacks to old, inspiration from new, and ultimately are done in the style of my favorite DJ's who best inspired the sounds, as a tribute to them. Each one has a different sound theme, and each carry depths of symbolism as part of the human experience and path towards healing. 

I now give you MetaMix 3...

In the mythical story of the Garden of Eden, the first two humans existed in a beautiful paradise containing the Tree of Life and Tree of Knowledge. Known as a symbol for obedience to the Creator, they were tested and failed, and cast out of the garden to now live on the earth and fend for themselves. Yet in the story the Creator provided assurance that one day someone would come to restore all things.  

The song at minute 37 (the hardest most intense in the set), represents the temptation at the Tree of Knowledge, the battle. The songs following represent the plan for redemption of mankind, and the path we must walk together. Pay attention to the lyrics, everything is intentional :)

Lots of symbolism for me. Listen from beginning to end to get the full effect.

Blessings to you all and much love, thank you for the support and encouragement!

MetaMix 3 - The Tree Of Life (Uplifting Vocal Trance) - Gareth Emery Tribute

I have been a trance lover since the 1990's. As an American born Romanian 🇷🇴, I grew up only listening to eurodance and electronic music ⚡️. Living in Detroit, as a teenager I remember seeing Armin Van Buuren at the annual electronic music festival (now known as Movement) when it was still free to attend! I made my first trance mixes at age 17, completing five sets, inspired by the sounds of Gatecrasher, Ministry of Sound, and Ibiza. 

As an adult, I got back into the trance scene in 2010 while living in NYC, and it has not stopped since. My greatest inspiration the last decade has been the sets of Aly & Fila (Future Sound of Egypt), who I had the pleasure of meeting in Atlanta after one of the greatest productions I've ever seen. It's been a long heart-felt desire to mix my own sets again, and now in 2024 I'm ready to start! 

Let's go on this music journey together. You will see a rare blending of the uplifting melodic and vocal trance genre, with dark/hard trance. This polarity is a reflection of me... light ☀️ and darkness 🌒 are always fighting each other. 

Lets let the light win :) 🙌
