All kinds of amazing hard trance tunes from the glory days of the mid-90's!

Classic Hard Trance Mixes!

Here is the latest edition of my long-running Eurotrash mix series, dedicated to the best of 90's European (and a little UK) hard trance and hard acid. This edition is a little bit more sedate than some of the others, starting at 135 bpm and ending at 150 bpm, but it's still packed full of absolutely killer tracks, both classic and obscure. As ever, this is mixed completely on vinyl. 

Enjoy!

Blog post: http://sonicrampage.org/blog/2015/05/pearsall-presents-running-into-neon-a-nuclear-hyde-tribute/

Few electronic music genres are more misunderstood or the subject of greater hostility than trance. But that's because a lot of it was and is terrible. But not the collected works of Nuclear Hyde ... this is real trance music.

So what is their sound and why do I think it is more real trance than the music of, say, Tiesto?

Well, above all, their music fulfilled the core imperative of trance - it was relentless, hypnotic music where percussive sounds were balanced with melodic flashes, where the energy came from the balance of elements not from taking the easy route of sounding really 'hard'. Pulsing, bouncing, driving - pick your adjective, they all basically describe the sound perfectly. Tracks that didn't rely on obviously anthemic elements to keep the dancefloor engaged and excited. And all of the tracks perfectly engineered with exemplary German precision to sound just gorgeous on a big sound system.

Concrete Over Goa (Old School Goa Trance - 100% Mixed on Vinyl!)

To kick off my (frankly insane) 780 Project, where I will be putting out 780 tracks (or an average of 15 a week for 52 weeks) across a whole bunch of mixes through 2016, I am super-excited to present this mix of hyper-speed mid-90's European hard trance.

This was music that I truly, truly loved when I was a teenager, and I think it still sounds as exciting as ever. Is it cheesy at points? Yes, sure ... obviously. But God, it is fun.

Eurotrash 6 (Old Skool Fast European Hard Trance)

For my latest mix, I am going back to the sounds of that awesome period in the late 90's/early 00's in London - acid techno, hard trance, and hard house, all bashed together in one frenzied mix.

This is the sound of parties like Undertow, Trancentral, Antiworld, Logic, Atomic Energy, Frantic, Pendragon, Escape From Samsara, Redtrip, Nuclear Free Zone, Techtonic and many many more that I can't even remember now.

100 minutes of real trance music - hypnotic, driving, melodic electronic sounds, with a minimum of soft beats and endless breakdowns with twee vocals and twinkly arpeggios. Music to lock into, music to drift to, music to make you dream.

I've also just passed 100,000 listens on Soundcloud - thanks for listening!

Escape The Dream (Proper Trance) [The 780 Project Part 17]

On September 17 I will be playing two old skool, all vinyl sets at the Alter Schlachthof in Hollabrun, Austria. One set of acid techno/trance and one set of banging hard trance. As a promo for this event I've put together this 20 track set that goes from 135 bpm acid all the way to 175 bpm hard trance ... a staggering 40 bpm increase in just 20 tracks.

It's a wild ride, so strap yourself in!

Pearsall's 90's Revival Rave Promo Mix (Acid to Hard Trance!) [The 780 Project Part 19]

The first of two mixes I have done in tribute to London's legendary Escape From Samsara - one of *the* great hard trance party crews of all time. They popped my raving cherry at age 16 at Brixton's Fridge, and so I thought it was only appropriate to put together an epic 50 track tribute that runs for 210 minutes and total and from 135 to 170 bpm. Along the way I've also tried to pay tribute to Samsara's special vibe, as well as to feature many of the dj's and live acts that were perennial favorites at the party, including of course the legendary residents Beamish and Oberon. Enjoy!

Part 1 Pearsall's Escape From Samsara Tribute Part 2 [The 780 Project Part 21]

Here's a mix I did a few years back that was blocked by Soundcloud's copyright police. Now that dj mixes are apparently ok, I am reuploading it here.

"As ever with my Eurotrash mixes, this one starts (relatively) slow, at a pulsating 145 bpm, and then builds over an extended 90 minutes of gradually ratcheting tension to a euphorically rushing 170 bpm"

Eurotrash 4 (Old Skool European Acid/Hard Trance)

30x3 is three mixes, each with 30 tracks, each dedicated to a different chapter in the story of how electronic musicians have utilized the Roland TB-303.

This is the second mix in the series, and it's dedicated to something very close to my heart indeed: acid trance! Few things in my life have matched the sheer wild-eyed pleasure of raving to acid trance music - the euphoric power of trance mixed with the frenzied mayhem of acid? Yes please!

For this mix I have dug deep into my crates to pull together a very loving exploration of this sound, mostly (but not exclusively!) from the 90's, covering all things both acidic and trancey, from pulsing 140 bpm hypnosis to crazed 180 bpm fireworks. 

Enjoy and please share!

Eurotrash 3 (Classic European Hard/Acid Trance!)

American in Berlin! I've been a dj since 1997, playing across a wide range of dance music genres, as you can see from the variety of mixes. I love it all! 

Want recommendations? Drop me a DM and I'll hook you up. 

I sometimes play at Berlin clubs, but mostly I am a hardcore vinyl collector and bedroom mixer. Check out my blog at www.sonicrampage.org/blog
