Full on Uplifting and Hard Trance... with a bit of hardhouse 

Nottingham is where it all started for me 20 odd years ago when i was at uni there around 2002...,  

i first started djin in notts, playing in bars and going out to places like passion, storm, hotdog, lost weekend, fixation, crasher, godskitchen /polysexual and many more nights...

I wanted to make this set special for myself to be honest as notts has a special place in my heart, so many tunes in this that I used to listen to and that got me into the music I love today...

thanks to all who was there on the night and for all the kind words, as i think you all loved it.. 🙂 

I loved playing this set soo much, must say really enjoyed recording this today...

My Hard House/Bounce set from the Insomniacz & Rebooted event in Birmingham on 22/02/25

Adam Taylor - Insomniacz & Rebooted Birmingham 22.02.25

🔥 This is SCOTT BOND - INSOMNIACZ REBOOTED BIRMINGHAM - 22 FEBRUARY 2025 🚀 [DOWNLOAD > PLAY > SHARE!!!] 🎶🎧

This mix has to be one of my all-time favourites!!! I loved every moment of my 3-hour set – it felt amazing to be back in my hometown, where my Trance journey began. The tracks just flowed so perfectly, it was as if every piece fell into place seamlessly and fit together like a glove. Right from the beginning with "True Faith - Take Me Away" 🎵, it established a powerful tone that hinted at all the more incredible moments ahead. ✨

DJing is all about connection 🤝. Without it, nothing works. But when you have that connection, mixed with trust – that’s when the magic happens. 🔮 And Birmingham? Well, it was exactly that – connection and trust all wrapped up in one. Everyone knew I’d bring the energy ⚡ and the tunage 🎶, but I feed off the crowd, and when they’re locked in with me, the vibe becomes electric. ⚡ Unforgettable!! 🙌

I thrive on reading the crowd 👀, feeling their response to every beat 🎵, every melody 🎶. This allows me to fully immerse myself, losing all sense of time ⏳ as I get swept up in the moment. At that point, I’m in my element – delivering a REBOOTED selection of Trance excellence!!! 🔥 It felt like an electrifying, hypnotic wave 🌊 of sound, pulsating with pure adrenaline 💥 and euphoria ✨.

JLF Live @ Lost Weekend Festival 2025 (Opening Set) | Insomniacz Lovezoo RE:booted

Decided to record my set from last week's Lost Weekend Festival in Nottingham since a few of you were asking for it! Unfortunately I didn't get to play all the tunes I was hoping to play since we had a snazzy new XDJ AZ on our stage which doesn't work with the old versions of Rekordbox, so I couldn't load my playlists... hence a few tunes I've played to absolute death on this set. Still a few different ones I've not played out yet though and people seemed to enjoy it on the day 😀

Hope you guys enjoy... next gig in the diary is Rejuvenation All Dayer in Leeds on Saturday 9th August where you can expect to hear me NOT play some of these tracks 😂

If anyone would like to book me for their events in future then email my good friend Leon Wood at leon@thehardfiles.co.uk !

General Bounce @ Lost Weekend Festival, 14th June 2025

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. ☀️🔊

Connor is an experienced and passionate trance DJ from the North of England. As a clubber first and foremost he is the kind of DJ who comes from the dance floor and understands how to move the crowd.

The Lancashire DJ who grew up in Hyde (part of Greater Manchester), spent his fondest memories as a clubber in the late 90's and 2000's in the golden era of trance, frequenting clubbing institutions and infamous all-nighters throughout the north and midlands, Gatecrasher, Godskitchen, Cream, Passion, Insomniacz and Sundissential were where he fell deeply into a sound and culture that went on to shape his entire lifestyle. Connors main haunt was 60 minutes away, travelling almost every week from Manchester to Sheffield to The Republic, the home of the legendary Gatecrasher. 

Within his crowd, Connor was the trancespotter, the guy who made it his mission to find the track names and labels he heard in clubs, leading to an endless well of trance knowledge. This made him stand out from the average DJ before he even had decks himself! It wasn't long before his talented DJ friends pushed him to buy a set of Technics 1210's, with their early guidance and his cultured ear, he never looked back. Connor took his time honing his mixing skills while still remaining a dedicated clubber, always learning and being hugely influenced by heros of genre such as Paul Van Dyk, Tiesto, Armin Van Buuren and of course Gatecrasher residents Matt Hardwick and Connor's trance idol Scott Bond.

Connor made numerous mixes to promote himself, sending out demo after demo to clubs and promoters across England. Off the back of this, gigs started to roll in and he was invited to play in a DJ competition based in Liverpool with the winner being awarded a set at Nation, the famous home of Cream. Connor won his heat and got to the final where he came runner up to no other than Jordan Suckley.

Connor stepped away from DJ’ing to start a family. Fast forward to the present day Connor now a family man with a young daughter was ready to step back into the scene he has always loved.

Connor now DJing again in the digital era and now being influenced as before by Paul Van Dyk and Scott Bond plus artists such as John Askew, Simon Patterson, Will Atkinson and newer talents such as James Dymond, Kinetica and Allen Watts. 

Connor says "Since my return to the trance scene I have had a show on Experience Trance with a monthly show/podcast called 'Here and Now' with myself and various guest mixers. I have done many live streams, playing for many brands such as Subteran, Fortify, Agenda, Day Breakerz, Euphoriance, Up:Rise, Saturday Sessions, Saving Light, Rebels Argentina. Friday Night Revivals, Experience Trance, Nav’s Trance Party and Also had gigs with Rebooted, Insomniacz, Uprise, Saturday Sessions, Trance Junkiez, Transonic. Pres Nav’s Trance Party, plus many more Playing alongside some of the biggest names in the industry.
Trance is my life again outside of my family and the passion is burning inside me to play and produce a modern take on the the kind of trance I've always loved, danced to, explored and promoted"

General Bounce is West Yorkshire based DJ and producer Dave Gray, who has become a prominent figure in UK clubland playing hard dance, bounce and house.

Obsessed with dance music from an early age, Dave has been an active club DJ ever since he turned 18 in 2001, starting on the local club & bar circuit playing everything from house and speed garage to trance and hard dance, before finally settling into the hard dance scene in 2005 with a residency for Shock in Wakefield. He quickly became known for his widely-influenced and versatile DJ sets, combining as many elements as possible from the genres he loves. When Shock ended in 2007 Dave began making regular appearances on the Northern bounce scene, and over the next 4 years Dave was privileged to play at venues such as Wigan Pier and Doncaster Warehouse. Hard dance remained a passion of his during this time, and in 2007 he came third in the Parlez Vous DJ Competition.

Things came to a head in 2010 when he was picked up by the Cheeky Tracks brand as a resident DJ and producer. Dave held a residency in the Cheeky Tracks room at Rave On in Leeds for the next 2 years, and since then he has become a regular face behind the decks at hard dance and bounce events nationwide, performing at prestigious events and venues including the Tidy Weekender, BTID, Frantic, Storm, Rejuvenation and many more.

Since taking his first steps as a producer in 2006, Dave has had several solo and collaborative releases, collaborating with both established producers and new artists on the scene, co-producing some of his collaborators' first big hits and even being played on BBC Radio 1. To date Dave has produced over 50 tracks which been supported by some of the biggest names in hard dance, such as Hannah Laing, Kutski, BK, Rob Tissera, Technikal, Andy Whitby, Anne Savage, Amber D and Lisa Pin Up. His collaboration with fellow hard house producer Rick James “Ibuleve” was featured on Hannah Laing's exclusive DJ mix for Spotify in 2022, and his last solo release “House Trafficking” topped the Toolbox Digital Shop store chart for over a week. He has also collaborated on a UK hard trance track with his idol Rob Tissera, called “Get Up Stand Up”.

Dave is an ardent believer in playing all genres of dance music, exposing his audience to new sounds and making his sets as varied as possible. Through doing this he has developed a trademark sound of vocal, uplifting rave music that's both tough and fun. Dave's passion for all genres of music runs deep, and so does his collection. This earned him a residency at Void in Manchester's gay village - an afterhours venue where he regularly played 3 - 4 hour sets of upfront funky and vocal house, through to the lighter side of hard dance. Dave was a resident for the whole 6 years of the club’s lifetime, and played the final set there on his birthday in 2020, when Void closed its doors for good. He continues to spend most weekends DJing for various events nationwide, and since 2021 he has played annually at the Unity In The Sun festival in Corfu. He also hosts a monthly podcast showcasing his label's releases as well his versatility as a DJ. 

In 2012 Dave went from being a Cheeky Tracks artist to co-owner of the label, and took full ownership of the brand in 2015. Under his ownership, he has established the label as one of the biggest selling independent labels in the hard house scene, consistently appearing in the top 10 across several download stores. 12 Cheeky Tracks releases were rated Hard Dance Tune Of The Month in Mixmag from 2014 to its final print edition in 2020.

Over 22 years after his DJ career began, Dave is showing no sign of slowing down and continues to go from strength to strength.  Whatever path Dave's career takes, you can be sure he will continue to do play music the way he believes it should be.... happy, uplifting and stomping!

"Dave is a fantastic DJ - easy to say he's one of the best. He's a real pleasure to work with" - Rob Tissera
