1997 - Progressive Peaks

Eighth in a series of mixes that charts the evolution of trance, from it's roots in the early 90s to the world domination of the turn of the century. This one takes in the sound of 1997 as the sound of progressive trance dominates the dancefloors.  Artists such as Paul Van Dyk, BT and Tilt and labels such as Hook and Hooj Choons champion a more complex, epic and hypnotic sound that drives the trance sound forward.  Gatecrasher and Cream in the UK become meccas for trance fans as trance  becomes the dominant sound of the dancefloor.

Deepsky - Live @ Exposure Festival, DI.FM 05.09.2003

Besides my little and well-known obsession for classic trance and progressive music I actually listen quit often to modern work. That basically means everything melodic from 115 to 145 BPM 😉

Inspired by some recent deeper mixes by some of my friends I was inspired and decided to build a little collection for creating something new, something deeper.
Expect lots of melodies, some vocals, a couple of breakbeats… perfect for the sunny days that are coming ☀️

INTO THE DEEP #01

A Tribute to one of the finest Trance producers going true to sound from start to finish and  still going strong.
My first vinyl mix after a 10 year break from mixing, a raw warts and all mix  as I find my feet once again, no post editing or tweaking...just decks and a mixer. Absolute blast though going chronological release wise, regretfully leaving a couple out mapping and trying to keep the flow of a standard club set was tricky but fun
Hope all enjoy my 'first' return to vinyl mix starting with one of the finest....👍👍

DROWNING (bumblebee mix)

We did this back in 2000 for Amato, but it didn't quite gel so it never saw a full release and has never been heard before now...
