Slym is an hour of deep, hypnotic trance, rooted in the late ’90s but timeless in its flow. StratIO takes you through twelve carefully selected tracks, each building seamlessly on the last, creating a continuous journey of sound.

From the driving grooves of Mikkel Rev – Rebirth to the tension of Omformer – Point of No Return and the mechanical pulses of Changer – Type 2 (Frank Heise Binary Mix), the set draws the listener into a trance-like state. Every track is chosen to maintain flow and atmosphere, immersing you fully in the music.

Inspired since youth by 90s pioneers like Transa, Cygnus X, Marmion, Union Jack, Resistance D, and Jam & Spoon, StratIO channels that influence without imitation. Slym is raw, hypnotic, and honest—a mix to be experienced, not just heard.

No gimmicks. No distractions. Just trance.

Music has been with me for as long as I can remember, but my love for trance truly began when I was around 14 or 15. Now, at 30, that passion has never left me. It’s never about the show, the attention, or likes – it’s always about the sound, the atmosphere, and the journey a track, a mix, or a set can create. Every layer, every loop, every subtle nuance is a tool to shape a state you can sink into, completely undistracted.

From the first hours spent with old vinyl and early CDs from the ’90s, to the sets I produce today, countless artists have shaped me. Names like Transa, Cygnus X, Marmion, Union Jack, Resistance D, or Jam & Spoon stand for an entire era that has inspired me. I devoured this music, analyzed it, and have always tried to reinterpret it in my own style – without it ever being a tribute or just nostalgia.

Every mix I release is the result of this long engagement: an hour or more in which I shape soundscapes, build hypnotic states, and carry the energy that first captivated me so many years ago. It’s never about showing off effects or gimmicks, but about creating an atmosphere that is honest, intense, and timeless. Music for people who want to listen, not for people who just want to see.

StratIO is not a name for a brand or a project that wants anything other than letting the music speak. It is the result of years learning how sound works, how it carries, and how to build it so it’s not just heard, but truly experienced.
