"Who is afraid of a classic tune? The original "Shadows" was released by trance duo DITO back in 2001. This timeless piece still has the astonishing power to shift your melancholy into pure joy, making everyone that hears it go crazy on the dance floor. But if you're thinking it can't get more epic than that, think again! The trance master, Talla 2XLC, has raised the bar masterfully by casting his own "Shadows". This uplifting 2020 remix will surely be an overdose of joy."

Dito - Shadows (Talla 2XLC Vocal Remix Original Version) MASTER

« Mon existence ne se plie à aucune finalité qui la surplombe. Elle ne sert ni dessein étranger, ni maître lointain, ni chaîne invisible : elle est sa propre lumière, son propre horizon. Elle est la cime où tout s’achève et tout commence.

Je suis un homme, et ce prodige que je suis m’appartient en propre. Il m’incombe de le saisir avec clarté, de le défendre avec fermeté, de le porter avec droiture — et, si l’heure le demande, de m’agenouiller devant sa grandeur, comme on s’incline face à l’infini qu’on abrite.

Mes richesses intérieures — mes pensées, ma volonté, mon souffle libre — ne se monnaient pas, ne s’éparpillent pas, ne se bradent pas aux âmes creuses qui mendient ce dont elles se sont vidées. Je les garde en moi, tels des joyaux dans un écrin scellé, avec la vigilance que mérite ce qui est rare et pur. Et au cœur de ces trésors, la liberté trône, indomptable, inaltérable.

Je ne dois rien à mes semblables, et je n’attends d’eux aucun tribut. Je ne délègue pas ma vie à autrui, pas plus que je ne ploie sous le fardeau de la leur. Je ne convoite pas leur essence, et je refuse que la mienne soit pillée.

Je ne suis ni le rival ni le vassal de mes frères : je suis ce qu’ils discernent en moi à l’aune de leur propre éclat. Mon affection n’est pas un don gratuit, une charité aveugle ou un réflexe usé ; elle est une flamme que l’on gagne, un hommage que je rends à ceux qui s’en montrent dignes.

Mes compagnons, je les choisirai parmi les esprits affranchis — loin des chaînes des esclaves, loin des sceptres des tyrans. Je marcherai aux côtés de ceux qui m’élèvent, et avec eux je tisserai des liens d’estime et d’amour, sans jamais les dominer, sans jamais m’abaisser. Nos mains se joindront si nos âmes le désirent ; sinon, chacun suivra son propre chemin, solitaire et souverain. Car au plus profond de lui-même, chaque homme est une citadelle.

Alors, que cette citadelle demeure inviolée, intacte, sacrée. Et que, depuis ses remparts, l’homme tende la main s’il le choisit — mais jamais en deçà de ses murailles. »

I got involved in EDM and deejay in the late 90s thanks to a friend of mine that bought a pair of Gemini turntables and some 90s Italo-Dance vinyl that we was listening in local disco.

From that point my own equipment evolved from Virtual Turntables 1.8 to Stanton ST90 passing by a pair of Pioneer CDJ 100 and my musical tastes quickly evolved from Italo-Dance music to Trance music, thanks to the Internet and the great community Tranceaddict.com.

In the 2006 I stopped to deejay and I sold my equipment but in the 2014 I started to slowly re-enter and I (finally) started to play and enjoy some good electronic music again.

I love instrumental uplifting and euphoric trance but I don't dislike to put in my sets some more deep and grovy progressive / techish tracks and some catchy vocals tunes.

Mind & passion, heart & soul – these belong together like Yin & Yang. For Dominic Manns these are also the main ingredients of music: “When it stimulates your intellect and at the same time touches your heart you can enjoy a perfect moment!” This is what Trance really is! When combined with mesmerizing patterns and heart pumping beats it is a greater power which forces you to dance. And it can make people cry for happiness…

Dominic Manns is well known for his talent to create epic atmospheres and to transport positive feelings with his compositions.
