2021 June Una Noche Mas (Sunrise Set) After the sunset comes … the sunrise. Balearic sunrise set “à la Café Mambo”, mixing genres, from Progressive Chill to Chill Out to Balearic Vocal Trance and finally into classic Beach House. We call it Trouse! From 120 bpm to 138 bpm and back. Might get some of you to dance and others to wonder what is happening. A lot more melancholic than intended but it is the current mood here. Straight from the mixer so you might notice some very suspect clipping levels in “Gratitude”. Well, that was not intended as well! Check the great new take on Nadia Ali's anthem “Rapture” by Kryder with Nathalie Shay on vocals and do not miss the last track, a little summer gift from us to you! https://www.mihn.hk https://t.me/Mihnclub Playlist: 2020 On the Beach (Kryder Extended Remix) [Qtπ Surf Edit].

NYD party set, straight out of the live mixer, full of original edits and mashups. If you do not dance and sing along, well, we are from different tribes. Between House and Balearic Trance, in that sweet space we call “Trouse”. No post-production, therefore at times levels are a bit in the red but it was a fun battle.

Trance Mission “The Final Cut Pt.1” (Let Go) Fusion of (mostly) current higher bpm Trance and Progressive house. Set was originally 02:30:00 hours, thought I would spare you the massive data charge and cut it in two parts. Mostly Trance I have never used before meshed with a few of my classics. Are you ready for it? Most probably not! I hesitate to call it Trance as it is meant to be fusing Trance and House into Trouse. Yet, the set is well within the Trance realm going from 122 bpm to 134 riding that emotional wave up and down, with highs and lows, builds and drops, bridges and precipices… as a journey into Trance should be. There is nothing harder (at least for me) than to mix a decent Trance set. The bpm range mostly disallow beat synch and every track needs to be worked and properly cued. Furthermore, it needs a structure and needs length to cover all the emotions of a good trance roller coaster. Finally, finding good, non-insipidly commercial Trance requires a lot of crate digging if ones wishes not to repeat every time the same classics. Anthems as they may be, they also need a rest! Anyhow, here we are, possibly the last chapters of the Trance Mission. It is a very post-produced set. There was hardly anything live about it! I do hope you will enjoy it and Spotify the new tracks or, here is a novel idea, actually BUY THEM! One warning. I get a lot of comments, both positive and negative on the accapellas add-ins. Well, it is my quirk and my creative signature, for better or worse. Playlist : 2010 Sax (Yasmin Le Bon vs. Simon Steur Remix) [Xtian Soul of a DJ Edit].

Samantha James2015 Hold That Sucker Down (Jerome Isma-Ae’s 10 Year Anniversary Mix) [Xtian Epic House Edit]. Jerome Isma-Ae, Roland Clark Highlights: I will only mention the new tunes. “Sax” from Ercola. Sax, Trance and House… Nice trio if you ask me. Thought it would be a good track to open the set. Mashed up 2 different remixes to have a slow soulful break in the middle. Veikka Erkola is a Finnish producer, songwriter and engineer. https://open.spotify.com/artist/7MocD7vMCHqPu8KV33lSLa?si=6bSQdMstRb6LFiy2BLSAlA “Moonlight” from Alex Greenhouse. Aleksandr Pletnev, a multi-genre musician from Samarkand, Uzbekistan. A slow driving progressive trance track, to bridge the set into Trance. Seems my edit has hit some buttons as I have had request for the edit file. I love what I did with the track, very much in my zone. https://soundcloud.com/alexgreenhouse https://www.beatport.com/artist/alex-greenhouse/313854 The Florence +The Machines anthem “Spectrum (Say My Name)”. A new remix, with grit and chops, which starts the journey into high bpm Trance. Could not find much on the two remixers: Taito Tikaro and Flavio Zarza. https://open.spotify.com/artist/0gmu6abI9nakvXsGO1fnou?si=1mFS-qVyRH2xHlOwoowtnw “Let Go” with Holly Drummond on vocals and Jeremy Vancaulart. Classic Trance track, with the drop and builds and all the trimmings of the genre. I would get off with this track, if heard full blast. And the little piano bridge is delightful. Holly Drummond is a Scottish singer and songwriter. Her voice is poised, warm and never pushed out of range. Jeremy Vancaulart, Canadian from Toronto, producing Trance music that is deep, complex, expressive and impactful. https://monstercat.fandom.com/wiki/Holly_Drummond https://open.spotify.com/artist/24O8Ftz6AqboC3Uawbiw4r?si=R9LL0X83Rz-2otnJdvDP0Q https://www.beatport.com/artist/jeremy-vancaulart/288987 https://open.spotify.com/artist/5ImELkd8OgfpnIKfvCSmX8?si=6JVeiO9NQkydcN-ebi0KXw “Just to Hear” and “Sunshine Blue” Denis Kenzo, Sveta B. Two lovely little trance/progressive sugary tracks. For some it might be too commercial and sugary…but I like my Trance with melodic moments and Sveta B. voice is heavenly. For me, the tunes would be fitting for those moments, where the wave is overpowering and one needs a “rest”. Could see myself, just hardly dancing but with a massive grin on my face. Born in Khabarovsk, Russia, Denis Kenzo (Denis Pisarev) is a DJ and music producer, who is well known in the trance music scene. He was a former member of musical duo Two&One. Some of his compositions are recorded with the participation of his wife Svetlana Pisareva (Sveta B.) His label has been picked up by Armada. https://open.spotify.com/artist/5wvd4ChcVYMYVj393AWF5G?si=BSSpAr9ITT-4DkXK47mdsQ https://www.facebook.com/svetabofficial/ https://soundcloud.com/denis-kenzo https://open.spotify.com/artist/66hvouo3QBf31PuetihmSQ?si=9L98Vl6CTfyOmm7rEQ9kcw https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denis_Kenzo “All the Little Things” from the Thrillseekers. Full on 135 bpm Trance, with the trance vocal, the drop, the build… Classic! The Thrillseekers need no introduction. But if you do not like this track. You just do not like Trance.. which is OK but your loss J. Steve Helstrip, known by the stage name The Thrillseekers, is an English DJ and record producer. His debut single was "Synaesthesia", released in 1999… Yes, THAT Trance classic! https://www.thethrillseekers.co.uk https://www.facebook.com/thrillseekersofficial/ “Nana” from Orkidea courtesy for Jerome Isma-Ae. THE TRACK OF THE SET! Tribal, Psy-Trance and House. A good Trance needs ONE massive track, which sets ravers off, the “rush” track and “Nana” is such a tune. The track, which will define Final Cut Pt.1. Tapio Hakanen, better known by his stage name DJ Orkidea (predominantly shortened to Orkidea), is a Finnish electronic music artist. DJ Orkidea has been one of Scandinavia’s top DJs for over 10 years. DJ Orkidea was employed as a sound design manager at Nokia Corporation. Not introducing German Producer Jerome Isma-Ae, as he is a regular here. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orkidea http://djorkidea.com https://open.spotify.com/artist/3OOGJRs38Dvkuyh9bqIvXk?si=q_9IeGVWSQeY3JpL8fAlvQ http://www.jeromeisma-ae.com “Under the Stars” from Tydi. I need to bring it down and it is a nice bridge track. Mashed it up with “Hallelujah Anyway” Candi Staton soulful house anthem. Actually, not unhappy with my effort but then… I “had” to mix it with a sped up version of the classic and pure Trance goers might disapprove and I am not totally sold on this track in the middle of a Trance set. This being said was quite proud of myself with the mashup, hence the Larse remix drop. “Angel on My Shoulder” and “Waves of Change” two of my progressive trance faves and there had to be a couple! “Hold That Sucker Down”, from the aforementioned Jerome Isma-Ae. Pure Trance/Prog big pad anthem, edited and as far as I am concerned, the perfect track to both close the set, bring you up, give you the tingles and goose bumps and define what Trouse is for me. Trance indeed.. but with soul! I will be back soon with TranceMission Pt.2 Hope you enjoy it. A bientôt. Xtian

Resuming my Trance Mission with “The 138 bpm Drop” Balearic Trance Journey. Drop both your inhibitions and your gear and let the journey start! If you do not like real (but frenetic at times) bangin’ trance, I strongly suggest you give this one a miss… yet, you will have foregone quite a journey… Firstly, I have to thank Lars for giving me the inspiration to put this set together. Lars has been supporting this space for quite a while and has always commented (positively or not) when he sees a new upload. Recently, Lars contacted me when, in between my hiatus and completely uninterested with the current offering of traditional house, I uploaded the 2 Quanta of Solace. Once again he gave me the will-power to revisit that old love of mine, Trance, Progressive House or what I call Trouse. In the past, I have always chided from high bpm Trance. Anything over 130 and I would either never get there or prefer not to include it in any set. Partly for I felt it was frenetic and partly for I assumed I (and by extension) you were too old for it. The algorithm I use to choose a playlist in preparation for my sets is programmed by design to nicely keep tracks, keys, bpm and flavours in a tight range. And since I like to start slow to build up, I very rarely get to reach anything over 130 bpm. There is vast blog space on the Internet dedicated to the question “ Who is afraid of 138 bpm Trance?” There is even a label called “ Who is afraid of 138 bpm?”…. Well, in many ways, I am! This being said, in order to continue the Trance Mission and be true to the genre, I always knew I would eventually have to get over that fear.. I worked without the algorithm and here we are. Set is 80% over 132 bpm by DESIGN! Vielen Danke Herr Lars. This one (good or not) is for YOU! Sorry for all the florish but had all those dits and felt like trying them out.. Another reason to resume the mission, was a request I got a few weeks ago to play for Mardi Gras for a LGBTY party in Sydney. The request was flattering, yet due to not being in the right headspace at all and natural performance jitters, I chose not to consider it. I told the promoter that I would send him a demo of what I thought would be the right journey for such an event for the boys. Well, here it is! As a general comment, this set is very ornate. In many ways , it is more a case of Xtian trying to take stock of what he can do and tediously learn new tricks than anything else. But along the way I am putting out there all the new edits and mashups I have been toiling on, which might just be a bit TOO MUCH in one go considering my modicum of talent but it feels so good to have them out there and await your reaction and so good to have them safely saved and backed up on my HD for a future live set! As an added bonus (for me): after the mashup of Silence and Missing from a few years back, I have now semi-cracked a mashup and counter-mashup of Finally and Silence.. Yippee, I can finally rest. Obviously, not every track is fresh and current. For Trance is all about anthems and there are at the most 3 or 4 a year! I did try my best to include a few I never played before. As I had used a few current great tracks in the two previous Quanta and did not want to repeat myself ad nauseam, I decided to try out all the edits I have been working on in the past and had lost when my library got corrupted. Call it a bulk early release, other would call it premature ej...... but sorry I just had to.. Even more satisfying, almost all tracks are new Xtian Edits of mostly unkown remixes and , for better or for worse, you get the added bonus of a few of mashups I am quite happy with. Now close your eyes, imagine you bought a ticket for Ibiza, got yourself sorted and you are ready for a genuine balearic Trance journey.. DO NOT GET AFRAID WHEN IT GOES TO 138.. It is meant to!

Motorcycle Highlights: From 1998, "Who Do You Love" from Jose Padilla, Chicane was a baby and yet was given the honour to remix the Cafe del Mar legend.. great Balearic track, which took me ages to find again.. "Kiss Me Here", old Tritonal fav of mine with a great built up and Christine de Soto amazing vocals. This year will see a LOT of "Saltwater" remixes as I think it is the 20th anniversary. I can't wait to see what comes as I believe that "Saltwater" is one track that has yet to get THE DEFINITIVE REMIX but in the meantime, I found this 2009 one give this anthem a bit of a kick. A very recent track from Above and Beyond "Treasure", DO NOT MISS.. Zoe Johnston whose voice you will recognize is just amazing. Great melodic trance. Then starts a "Silence" extravaganza.. None of those remixes are run of the mill ones, most are bootleg and ALL are my personal private edits and mashups. I obviously have overdone it. But now I have those files secured and backed up and I am ready to drop them any time.. Starts at 38:00, Mashup Silence/Finally (41:19) to end around 46:16. "Koori" from Vitodito.. Japanese Trance.. Just because it is japanese.. "Second Chance" from Blood , Grooves and Kikkis.. Do not love the track but I actually think I did a fair job with the "Silence" mashup (starts at around 58:32). A unknow trance remix of You've Got the Love" got the mashup treatment with "How Deep is Your Love" at !:04:54 Could not have a balearic Trance journey without some latin rhythm and hence brought in a new remix of "Pasilda" from Helena Legend. Followed by another anthem but a completely new take with Kings of Tomorrow "Finally" in a totally different colour courtesy of Frank Caro and a private Xtian Edit, which I can live with and will use in live sets.. Tracks starts at 1:20:20 mashup at 1:22:02) Onto a Chicane medley, with a "Poppihola" mashup with Dajae's "Everyday My Life", which almost works.. So close but another one I will drop in live sets.. (Mashup starts at 1:29:40) Do not miss "An Angel's Love" from Alex M.O.R.P.H. ANTHEM... I had missed this absolute gem from 2011.. When Trance meets Classical I am completely in my element.. LOVE IT! Finishing with "As the Rush Comes" from Motrocycle, another anthem, but presenting my private edit, true to the original but if I may say maybe even more potent.. (Starts at 1:46:45) A bientôt I still have a Quantum to post but might take a little while. Xtian
Second Quantum of Solace (In the Air CX 134) Refer to previous podcast for an update on my status. I mixed this second Quantum of Solace during an 8 hour flight. The only post-edit is the intro, in many ways unnecessary but I felt like tying the set up to the Quantum World. Furthermore, should you be a fervent follower, you have already endured many a time my love for intros.. Numerous Xtian edits, set mostly in the progressive house, trance space I want to stay in at the moment. And herein included quite of few 2015-2016 tunes, which is a bonus! A bit of sugar, some alternative tracks and quite a few on my personal high-rotation list . Enjoy! I have another quantum on my hard drive, mixed during the return flight. I will post it when I have some time. Some of the tunes featured are on my favourite current list: - “I Need You” from SK1 - “Peace of Mind” and “Counting Down the Days”, not to miss very current trance/progressive gems from A&B. - “My Head is a Jungle” from the Dior advert with Emma Louise a great local vocalist from the indie scene.

Trance Mission Episode 4 (Still with me?) The fundamental question is: Are you Still with Me? Apologies to all but I took a little break.. A few lines to frame the context: I have had the set on my HD for now 4 months. I actually mixed it the day of the Charlie Hebdo massacre, hence the intro and then I kept it and kept it and .. kept it. I had received a few pointedly true comments relating to the previous set, which, decent as it was, did contain a few too many poppy tracks. I may ( well I did...) have overdone the Sophie Ellis Bextor segment.. What can I say, I am just a weak old middle-aged straight man.. Not an excuse, just a statement. Anyhow, I thought I would wait until Trance Mission Episode 4 was the best I could produce. Not inferring it is perfect ny now but the version I am publishing ticks all the boxes, covers all the criteria I had set for myself. It is not just Trance, but House, Chill, Progressive, Tribal, Deep and also Trance.. It is what I call Trouse and is the genre I would love the most if it ever existed! Let’s set the scene. At the start imagine yourself about 30 minutes from sunset, it’s hot, you are on the beach somewhere and are listenning to Tribal beats. From there let the music wave guide you, take control of your body. Feel the beat, feel the wave and let yourselves GO! The sun will set and it will be time for the party to get on its way. It will start with Trance, Disco, Dance and House anthems culminating in a Trouse fest.. It's a Rave as an early listener mentioned.. Setting the bar high there, let’s see if I have delivered.

Highlights: Absolute gem and a 2015 release is “Still with Me” from the new Chicane album “The Sum of Its Parts”. Originally the track was released in 2013 by Tritonal, Chicane took it to another level with Bo Bruce as a vocalist.. An absolute gem, classic Chicane, as good as Saltwater and his other massive tunes.. Love it!! But perhaps because of the Tribal beat and the haunting melody, my absolute fav is “Now” from King Britt.. If you do not like the tune, stop following me because we are from different planets. In many ways it reminds of Ravel’s bolero.. Same structure, same false simplicity, same perfection. Onto two classics with “Pressure” and “Hide U”.. Two of my “anchor tunes” and I do have a soft spot for Nadia Ali. The y fitted perfectly with the tribal beach vibe I wanted at the start of the set. “Sun Goes Down” by Robyn Schulz, I heard the tune first on a live set from Chicane in Dubai. Though chilled and repetitive, I wanted to bring everything down looking at the sun going down and the tune fitted perfectly. Once chilled and quiet down, time to party with a couple of Trance/Disco numbers. Starting with Umek’s very clever take on Moroder’s Chase from Midnight Express and a Freemason’s classic Pjanoo.. Should get everyone on their fit, with a wide smile ready for a BIG night. Still with Me by Chicane.. Enough said, this is perfection in progressive or Trance or Trance.. Onto someone who first heard the unfinished set called “Rave music”.. Well it kind of is, but I tried rave music with a house twist throughout. Starting with A&B “Lonely Girl”, I love the female vocalist , she is pitch perfect and the built and keys are what this style is all about.. Classical Music brought to EDM.. With “Only a Dream” we are now in full-on Trance but I thought that I could add a house anthem sample to make it more interesting and bring on what is pure Deep House here-after.. I shifted up the Larse remix of “Hallelujah Anyway” and with pure luck it worked! “One Thousand Sun” by Chicane and Ferry Corsten , another good friend, Denise , to whom I sent an unpublished file, made the comment that she did not like the tune. As Viv, my wife, had already told me once she did not like it either I thought something had to be done. The tune fails because the vocal version gets irritating, A very mediocre vocalist or just not the key he should be singing in.. Anyhow I stripped the vocals and lo and behold thought I could try to mash it up with KOT’s Finally… Big work with a half decent result.. But BOY did I have fun!! This is precisely why I do THIS, to sometimes create! Reintroduce a short version of the original vocal stem and went back to “Finally”. Can’t wait to see how this will work out live.. Two Chicane tracks to follow “ No More I Sleep” and “38 Weeks”… I just did not want to shy away from Trance by this stage.. Episode is called Trance Mission after all.. Tried again to mashup KOT’s “Finally” into “38 Weeks” with limited success.. I had been asked by no les than my son, to remix my edit of Chicane’s “Going Deep” [My First Time Edit].. I had lost it when I changed computer and he wanted it as a workable playable file with stems separated. I have had friend’s telling me that once they heard those edits, they always wait for the samples to kick in the original remixes.. This was as good a time as any to do it and save the stems. Closing the set with the beautiful and uplifting Disco Citizen Mix of “Still with Me” as a reminder that it is the catalyst of the set.. So ARE YOU STILL WITH ME? It will take a little while for me to return to Trance but there will be an episode 5 and 6 in the semi-near future. As I mixed 9 sets of pure Deep House when I was on holidays in January, I will wait for this set to settled and upload one Deep one weekly. A bientôt. Christian
Trance-Mission Episode 03 (Ride the Wave) All sine waves are characterized by their frequency, amplitude and phase.. Let's alter all those parameters... Continuing my Trance-Mission. Last episode left us just “As the Rush Came”, this one is all about riding that metaphorical and physical sine wave.. Come and Ride it with Me.. Waves are all around us, light waves, sound waves, sub-atomic quantum waves and also liquid waves of course. There are no real difference in the physics of the surfing wave,the sound wave and the chemical wave, they are all encompassing.. One cannot fight the wave, one has to accept the highs, the lows, surrender to the overwhelming phenomena or emotion. Fight it and you fall into the abyss, ride it and you come back on top ready for the next one.. Although we are in Tranceland, I tried to keep it in my beloved Trouse.. If I did my selection right, at the end of this journey, you will have discovered some great tunes, be surprised by some edgier, harder ones, recognized some old club favourites, taken from one track you love to one you are not sure of, but you will have ridden that Wave and landed with a satisfactory smile on the other side of the tunnel.. At least this was my intent! Current tunes or 2014 remixes of tracks you know very well. Some commercial, some less, some chilled, some pure club-dance. Some dark and heavy , some as warm as the summer sun. Embark on a musical helter-skelter, ride the wave high and low and look at this new episode as a whole journey, do not take a tune by tune attitude, because it will not work. Embrace the total Wave… I will try to set the mood for you: this is what a DJ would play in a boy’s club past-midnight when the chase, the hunt and the urge has taken them over...

Zoe Johnston Highlights: “We’re All We Need”, new collaboration between A&B and the fantastic vocalist Zoe Johnston. Not quite at the level of the fantastic Love is not Enough, which is one of my all time favourite Trance track but still very, very good and top 5 trance track of 2014. I almost called the set “We’re all we need” as it could have been a very fitting title. “Don’t Stop” and “After Glow” to bring a dark sexy under-current ( to continue the nautical analogy). Both tracks straight out an ADE 2014 compilation called Intricate Records Amsterdam 2014 which you should by.. I actually had “Don’t Stop”, followed by “Till I Come” followed by”Afterglow”.. I was very pleased oh-not-so subtle riddle.. But it was totally gratuitous and the 3 tracks were keeping the set tempo too slow for far too long. “Let Go” a little progressive trance, trousy number with another great vocalist Julie Thompson. “Need 2 Know” I wanted to go back to this track, one of the best of 2014 to showcase the East8 Remix, which even though not as good as the Earnshaw one, presents a different dimension to the State Unknow jam. “Sunlight” a Tommy MC soundcloud bootleg.. Does not get more commercial than this but needed to lighten the mood and start bringing some fun into the mix. You will sing-a-long.. Going darker and harder with David Penn/Rae’s “I Lift My Hands”. Love Rae by far the best female DJ/Producer around. Straight onto an old French house favourite of mine “Discopolis” ( straight men if you have never seen the video clip, search for it..). The Freemsasons remix fitting perfectly the mood I wanted the set to be by now.. Heavy but still clubby. From there embarking on a little Sophie Ellis-Bextor medley. Love her since GrooveJet times! I recently saw a video of a show she did live accapella and then with a band in London.. Sophie rocks. She is beautiful well spoken, elegant and immensely talented. Starting with “Only Child”, her new Dec 2014 release straight onto another Freemasons remix of Heartbreak (Make Me a Dancer).. By now, you have successfully ridden the Wave! I had another go at using the Marc Evans vocals on a Trance track with “Shirahama”, definitively not as good as my previous attempt but I was bringing the set home and I was in the moment, waiting to send a message of Love consideering the recent event in Paris. Closing the loop with another remix of “We’re All We Need”.. track of the set.. I will see what the community makes of this Episode. I hope you give it a chance to grow on you. DO NOT fight the wave. Embrace it! A final word on the recent event in my country. I thought of doing a set to celebrate freedom of expression but could not find the right metal place to build it. Therefore just a few words, yes, JeSuisCharlie and so should you all be, because freedom of expression is an indisputable foundation of the Human Rights.. A bientôt! Xtian
Anonimo's Podcast (Podcast) - www.poderato.com/anonimounknown
It's a small compilation of various tunes that include EDM, House music, Trouse & more...
Introspection 1.0 Looking inwards for a few sets as in order to progress, one has to allow time for Introspection. The Menu: from the somewhat darker, Indie and Nu-Disco side of Progressive House. Do not be alarmed with the first track, just play along even if you think like my eleven year old son that old rockers are not your cup of tea.. The rest is a very solid, clever and original upload. Let yourselves go with this one, reward beckons! Two acknowledgments: Richard Vasquez aka Doctor Love (check his podcast here) because under his influence I am trying to be more eclectic and less mechanical in my mixing. Lars who is driving my slow shift to progressive and trance and is introducing me to German Progressive house. Thanks guys, genuinely grateful. I hope you give this Introspection series a fair listen. In the next few sets, you will discover new tunes, new sounds and you will be listening to some very clever music. It will not be boring! At worst, it will be mildly challenging but extremely rewarding.. Since I preventively gave ourselves 3 hours of soulful vocal happy pills before this Series we really should not experience any severe withdrawal symptoms for a few weeks. Now dim the lights and relax.. Playlist: 1978 Private Investigations (Remastered Live Version). Dire Straits 2012 Love Lives In the Dark (Ralph Myerz and Olivier Rohrbach 5am Eternal Mix).

Lana Del Rey Highlights: Starting with the remastered live version of “Private Investigations” from famed rock band Dire Straits.. Not sure what gave me the idea and the urge except maybe hearing on Richard Vasquez’s podcast drops one would not expect in a house set. But I can feel the intimate connection between progressive rock and progressive house.. Furthermore knowing that this was recorded live in front of an audience of 110,000 blows my mind. The respect I have for artists who can not only write, sing but also perform at that level is limitless. So I hope you will enjoy it and if like my 11 year old you have a problem with “the cheesy sax” it is Ok there are a lot of very good tunes to come in the set.. Vanessa Daou’s “Loves Lives in the Dark”. The track prefigures what I hope the set will be. Great production, big BIG driving bassline and interesting left field vocals. “But Maybe” from the great Hamburg based German progressive house producer Oliver Schories. Instrumental cut, with great pads nice breaks.. I am telling you the German Progressive House scene is where interesting things are happening.. “Julia” all about the atmosphere and a massive bassline.. If you can listen to it on a good system or headphones the better.. I love those melodic journey tracks. I “had’ to add some vocal samples. As most of you now well know, Xtian would have trouble going through 30 minutes without any vocals.. And yes I did go a little bit heavy on the sample but I was in MY journey and it felt gooood! “Left Your Love” by Climbers.. By now it was time to inject a little melodic sugar in the set.. and What a track.. The vocalist, Yasmine Azaeiz, has the perfect range and phrasing for progressive and trance.. At 51:18 keys are starting and you just know that we are oh so so close of those great vocal trance tunes of the 90’s .. You will be sing along “ à la première écoute”.. Give me 10 similar tracks with a few higher BPM ones and I return to trance in a heartbeat.. KANT Danish producer of Progressive/Indie), I have used “Hold You” before, I absolute adore this track. It is built and structured like classical music, a very simple vocal hook but perfectly pitched ( who says Xtian does not do male vocalist?). It is clever, it is happy.. Love it! “On The Inside” from Motif, apart from the very sloppy mixing (too late to correct), this fits so well in the general mood of the set. Again heavy bass, simple vocal hook, discrete percussions yet so intricate.. This could ONLY be produced in Europe.. “Good News” by Thomas Langner from Cracow Poland (check his soundcloud), I love the filtered bass, those very subtle guitar.. If you do not feel the connection between Progressive House and Progressive Rock there , you need to re-listen to you classics.. I have covered Gui Boratto ‘s “Too Late” before therefore will not say much but for my absolute admiration for unknown vocalist. Very sexy voice! As for the guitar in the background.. Yeah! Ben Delay’s” Deep Inside” love everything the production, the dirty filtered bass, a 2014 track which is already in my top ten.. “Falling” from Nikolas Noam . Call it Progressive House, call it down tempo Trance, Trouse.. who cares? but please find a good reason to spend 6 minutes with it.. I guarantee you will feel better for it.. I particular love the looping key pads in the back, just lovely.. “Let The Music” back to VERY clever sugar with trance sounding vocalist.. Again so so close to Trance heaven.. Just push the bass and let your self be driven, seriously.. headphones on, high volume I dare you not to throw your hands in the air and dance.. Yes “Let the Music…”. “Summertime Sadness” I am going through a bit of a Lana del Rey obsession.. But everyone will have to admit that this remix is fab.. Talk about dirty, dirty filtered bassline.. Lana’s voice so close to have the same effect on me than Nadia Ali’s.. So close.. It will pass but in the meantime Lana will pop in and out of this podcast often. I hope you give this podcast a fair listen, it will grow on you, it will. Back with Introspection 2.0 very soon… This one will come to yu from Hong Kong.. A très bientôt Xtian
Out of the Darkness, Into the Light Do not be fooled by the slow start, it does get a bit of oomph as we proceed. Thanks to Hayden for helping me finishing it. I was stuck in Tranceland and did to have the guts to either upload it or take another direction. I opted for the latter, for better or worse but at least I moved on! Continuing the Deep & Progressive vibe of the previous sets. I originally went into Trance, only to abort after hearing the end result. Did not have the fortitude to upload as it had dropped, sat on it for almost a month until I decide to tame it down. The end is a bit lazy, by that time I was over it. Those with tuned, discerning and akin ears will get an idea where it was going after 45 minutes.. into my beloved Trouse.. Playlist: I Like Chopin (Downtempo Mix).

DJ Borra vs. Aiman Beretta Nocturnal Dusk_(JaysWays Remix). Johnny Green Nocturnal Dawn vs. Nocturnal Dusk (Original Mix vs. 5am PILL Mix) [Xtian Edit] . Johnny Green Highlights: Loving 1 through 5. Great progressive trancy gems. Starting with Herr Semi “Wandering”, Stars from Ed Lee and “Little People” from Soul Button. Amazing crisp production. Put your headphones on and enjoy. Though it may just be a personal quirk of mine , I find that the current deep/progressive house productions, are a lot more “worked” than the soulful ones.. Somehow it seems that the tunes are more original, whereas the soulful tunes produced really are not exciting.. Lana del Rey “Young and Beautiful”, another inspired Nikos Kalogerias remix.. Originally included for my kids but truth be told commercial as it may be I love it.. Moderately happy with what I did with the trancy “Crockett’s Theme” from Michael Cassette of A&B fame. Could not resist using Tell Me Why (to the great dismay of my wife) to introduce the mash-up of Titanium.. Had to learn how to change keys of a sample for that one, which meant going back to music theory after my ten year old look at me with blank eyes when I asked “How many semitones between this key and that key?”.. Working it out and getting it semi-right which was the highlight of the month for me.. Love “Blue Coast” nice little indie number where I have first used the re ix deck of my new toy ( New Tratktor S2). “Ordinary People” and the double “Nocturnal Dusk” and “Nocturnal Dawn” were last minute addition when I scrapped the trancy end.. Please check out the production of those, it is close to perfection.. The layering and mastering in both tunes is as good as you will ever hear. Lining up a XXX rated sexy set for which I need to spare one night session as I want to do it in one take to stick to the filthy vibe. Furthermore waiting for a remix package to drop on Traxsource on the 8/11 to hopefully headline the set. In the meantime, I most probably will toy around with a beachy, soulful number. I am starting to accumulate decent new tunes in that segment and I feel it is time to get “Out of the Darkness and Into the Light”. Hope you enjoy my tunes. A bientôt Xtian
Free Your Mind On the chilled, progressive and tech side of Deep House. I suggest grabbing a book or setting yourself on a task and let the music take you through its ebbs and flows. “Free Your Mind” is a nice chilled cerebral journey with a thinly disguised oniric dimension. The best I can describe it is: “ this is a nice little tight package”. It took a while to get the level of consistency I felt it deserved but I finally achieved telling the musical story I wanted to share. It may not be perfect but from my point of view, it has a lot of internal logic. There are many original tunes in the set, which like the “I Wish You Were Here” previous mix are from producers and artists I did not know before. I entice you to grab a decent pair of headphones or listen on a good Hi-FI system. The production, mastering and layering of all those tracks is simply superb. Free Your Mind and take the jounrey..

Eli and Fur Outro Splinter in Your Mind. DJ Phenix Highlights: I chose to headline the set with this soundcloud remix of Aaliiyah's “If Your Girl Only Knew” from Nikos Kalogerias a DJ from Zakyntos (Greece) to give him a shout. https://soundcloud.com/dj-nikos-kalogerias Check his soundcloud page. Nikos gets his talented fingers on big tunes and the result is ALWAYS high quality. “You’re so High” fitted perfectly in the “Free Your Mind” spirit, I love the vocalist and have discovered Ellis & Fur. I will be following them from now on. “Bakerboy” from Gunjah great chilled deep track with an amazing production, inspired pads and begging for a mash-up with Buena Vista Park.. Please someone out there with talent pick it up and do it! “I Want It” a cookie french little number which reminds me of a nursery rhyme fititng snuggly in the oniric dimension of the set. Listen to the driving bassline and the superb production. "Out of Reach" Jody Wisternoff feat. Jonathan Mendelsohn. I have sat on this track for almost a year. I think the main reason for the delay was the fact that I knew Mendelsohn from "King of My Castle" fame and expected another anthem track.. But the atmosphere of the track, the clinical beats, the ever present synth pads and the overlayed melodies should have made me realize this track is well worth a listen by a wider audience.. "Fading Nights" Parra for Cuva feat Anna Naklab ..Whoah.. distorted bassline, clever beats, multi-layered production. Not sure if I know if this is house, indie even maybe trance. But I know you needs immense talent to produce such a complex track with no real melody and pass my melodic centric internal test.. "Micro Man" from Jelly for The Babies.. Instrumental deep and progressive gem, which may not have needed the Xtian vocal edit.. but you have to admit it was begging.. "I Wish You Were Here" from John Creamer, Stephane K, John Creamer & Stephane K feat. Nkemdi.. Just the credit reads like the House Hall of Fame.. John creamer AND Stephane K!!! I have used this tune in a previous mix but I LOVE this remix, deep but bouncy with a discrete key riff which sweetens what is effectively a techie number and those bongoes in the background.. Pure Inspiration! Not even mentioning the chill out rainforest sample driving into the break.. House heaven as commented on my podcast.. "Sunrise Collective" from Appa Glas.. another indie/prog tunes with a bouncy house undertone.. The tempo of the set was picking up and those two cuts dropped like they were jsut made to be there.. Ebbs and Flows.. exactly what I was looking for.. Again amazing production and massive bassline.. This is clever house at its very best.. "The Monster" from SourDen feat Veela. Is it Trip House or is it Trance? I have no idea but but perfectely fitted for this foray.. Complex track with no defined melody and every oniric journey needs a "Monster".. "The Nighttime" from Manu Riga is the point in the set when I crossed the rubicon and went into Trance.. ( I so want to do a new trance set but can't find enough new quality tunes").. I love this kind of Trance and if you call it Progressive House well let me dream and call it Trouse.. Trippin’ from Redondo... One of the three gems of this set. DO NOT MISS IT! You all know the original but this is a tease track and any DJ worth his salt should have it in its bag.. Any set could start with this and take the punters straight into stratosphere.. let alone that Trippin' and a "Free Your Mind" set were a a no brainer.. ( thank you the added categories Cour and Subtext..). Finally "Free Your Mind" from Eli and Fur. Believe it or not the track came as an after thought.. I had used the splinter in your mind and aura samples and then thought to add the second Ellis and Fur track once I had chopped the original mix and had another 5 minutes to go.. A deep and progressive little number so logical as and end tune and still with magnificient production. OK enough.. I visibly like this one.. I hope you will as well.. Enjoy. Next one hopefully a happy trancy trouse one.. Xtian P.S.: I will go on a little tangent reflecting on the creative process, answering a message from Umich Iasking me how do I select tunes for a set. I actually have no idea how others do it but here is the sequence of my not-so-creative process. All my music collection is categorized between genres and sub-genres, then sorted by keys and bpm. Nothing unusual! The one thing I do, which others may not is to I include 2 extra categories: - One is “Colour” … do not ask me how I chose and what I mean for I could not articulate it but I will say that the tunes you hear in “Free Your Mind” were in the dark blue category. - The other category is “Subtext”, which is what the vocals tune are about ( Political, Love. Happiness, Sex, etc..) or if instrumental track how it makes me feel. This set Subtext was Sadness and Mind. Once I have decided on a soundscape (for this one I wanted dark, brainy), I make a simple query with tight constraints (usually no more than 8 bpm difference, sometimes only 3 to 4 harmonized keys and a “date added” constraints to keep the set current and a rating of 4 to 5. I lthen peruse the results of the query, keep 18/20 tracks and try to build in my head a start, core and end. This structure I owe to my Gallic schooling upbringing The French education system is very, very big on writing plans.. Execution is not quite as much of a focus! The first draft is done in one go on Traktor. I just get into it and mix for 2 hours. This one took 4 versions for I deleted some tunes which were too “happy” and played around with the order to achieve maximum consistency. The rest is just “tweaking and adding effects. If anyone is interested what you are listening to is V.4z (most of the edits to cut it down to a CD format).. I usually do not allow myself to go beyond z.. If I need the Greek alphabet for the set to be uploadable, it is time to shelve it to the dark recesses of my HD! Here is your answer UMich!

Transitions 1.0 Something different! With an overall darker mood yet on chilled side. At the congruence and confines of Deep & Progressive House, with some Tech & World Indie tunes I have gleamed and a very small dash of soft Trance.. After last summer, I was literally housed-out. Particularly, I felt I had done the “best” I could do with soulful house tunes and needed a break from it. Listening to something unexpected, tackling new sounds, purchasing tunes from artists unknown to me became the priority of the day. Hence, for a few sets, I will delve into new directions, not radically out of my comfort zone but still a clear attempt to change soundscape. My intentions with Transitions 1.0 is to build a set. which we could easily listen to whilst working or reading, which would be in the background not in the forefront but which both your soul and your brain would want to go back to. Playlist 2012 Prayer (Gui Boratto Mix) {Xtian Urban Decay Edit]. Terranova feat. Nicolette Krebitz & Udo Kier 2012 Uncountable (118is Tech Mix) [Feel It Edit}. Hideo Kobayashi feat Tomomi Ukumori 2012 She's On Fire (Maya Jane Coles Remix). Bo Saris 2012 Circles (Sezer Uysal pres Spennu Remix) [French Poetry Edit].Evren Furtuna 2012 You’ll See (Micha Mischer Remix) [Xtian Planet Rock Edit vs Powers that Be vs Roland Clark]. Lameduza & Universal Solution 2012 Rain In My Heart (Andrey Djackonda Remix). Jane Maximova 2012 Paris Is For Lovers My Love feat (Club Version) [The Mandarin Edit].Terranova feat. Tomas Hoffding 2012 Almaty (Richard Malcoh Remix) [Xtian The Phuture Edit]. Sebastien Szade feat.Eddine B 2011 Dice (Original Mix) [Xtian Shifted Key Garage Band Edit]. Shingo Nakamura & Kazusa 2012 Se Paris (Original Mix) [Xtian You Must Feel a Splinter Edit feat. Basement Boys and DJ Phenix]. Elenika 2012 Let It Go (Los Teques Remix) [Xtian Added Pads Edit]. Armchair Generals 2012 Buena Vista Park (Allan Zax Remix) [Xtien It Won't Be Long Edit]. Alex Torn & Rachel Margaret 1998 Breathe (Nalin and Kane Remix) [This Here is House Muzik Xtian Edit feat. Mike Dunn]. Kylie Minogue Highlights: just give it a listen.. There is intent in my madness and those tunes are worth the try! But if I had to hightlight any of them it would go like this: "Circles" by Evren Furtuna great track, "You'll See" do not miss and my edit is OK. "Almaty" mash-up I am satisfied with. "Buena Vista Park" great happy chilled track, which I will revisit. The 20 minutes build-up with the stems of an old favourite of mine, Kylie's "Breathe" from the techie "Let it Go" to Nalin's remix of "Breathe" is the stand-out here. I most probably will upload another 2 Transitions mixes before returning to my Deep & Soulful normal groove. Enjoy Xtian
Do You Remember Your First Time? Ready for a session in my beloved Trouse (Trance+House)? Prince, Chicane, Fragma, Morgan Page, Above & Beyond, Nadia Ali, Tritonal. Give me some credit for the talent I gathered in this one! Originally it was supposed to be 2 consecutive sets dwelling in my beloved fusion of Trance and House aka Trouse. Depending if I want to spend another fortnight at 135 bpm, I may or may not upload the second part. To be consumed ONLY if you feel like pick-me-up & wake-me-up music. This is not a lounge mix! This is T R O U S E... and my aim is to get you on your feet.. Some very VERY good tracks are included, showcasing the current artists visiting Melbourne: Prince (do not miss “Dance 4 me”) and Morgan Page (who is up for it on the 5th of May?). Get ready to feel the urge, put your dancing shoes and dive back into Xtian’s Trouse. Playlist Intro Your First Time. Jason Jinx feat. Paul Alexander 2012 Love is Not Enough (Above & Beyond Club Mix) [Xtian Extended Edit]. Above & Beyond feat. Zoe Johnston 2011 Broken Down (Boyan & Boyer Intro Remix) [Xtian The First Time Edit]. Tritonal feat. Meredith Call 2011 In The Air (Hardwell Remix). Morgan Page, BT, Sultan & Nel Shepard feat. Angela McCluskey 2008 Longest Road feat. Lissie (Deadmau5 Remix) [Xtian Deeper Edit feat. Julius Papp & Mr. V]. Morgan Page feat. Lissie 2011 Going Deep (Original Mix). Chicane 2011 Going Deep (Moogmonkey Remix) [Xtian First Time Edit]. Chicane 2011 Dance 4 me (Brian Matrix Da Big Room Mix) – Prince 2011 Dance 4 me (Dance 4 me (David Alexander Icon Mix)) 2012 I Didn't Know I Was Looking For Love ( Ronski’s Big Room Mix) [Xtian DJ is Calling Club Edit]. Ronski Speed feat. Johanna 2012 Free To Go (Original Mix) – Le Que, Alex Saiz, Martin Volt feat. Nadia Ali 2011 What Love Can Do – Extended Mix [Xtian Otra Vez Balearic Edit] - Plastik Funk, Fragma 2012 Thousand Times (Extended Mix vs. Ralph Good Remix) (Xtian First Time Edit]. Fragma Highlights: "Love is not Enough" A&B just released a remix package available on Beatport, check the Kaskade one.. Such a great tune, Trance/Prog House at its most clever.. "Broken Down" from Tritonal, though I did butcher the intro for the purpose of the set, classic trouse track and the overall feeling is still there. Morgan Page is in town and it was high time to use "In the Air" and dwell back into "The Longest Road" feat. Lissie a favourite of mine. Chicane: I love "Going Deep", the fusion of trip-hop, rap and trance/prog may annoy the Purists but is original, inspired and as far as I am concerned up there with the best of Faithless. Buy the new Chicane album, you will like it! "Dance 4 Me" Prince is back in Melbourne and the collaboration with Purple Music (Jaime Lewis label) is fantastic. It is sexy, very Price yet very now.. Do not miss it. "Free to Go" new track featuring Nadia Ali.. Can she do antyhing wrong? And we finish with 2 Fragma tracks. The Spaniards are in great form. Balearic prog house with "What Love Can Do", which I edited Ibiza style with Otra Vez and "Thousand Times", which could become my kids new fav jam.. Hope you like it!
NY7 4/30 ... Title is a little brain teaser ... Work it out. I was working on what could be on the menu for New Year's and whipped this one off in no time. Semi-live, straight out of Traktor with no re-editing or re-mastering whatsoever.. So compared with the 50+ versions I normally do, this is a tad raw and unpolished. Funky tunes, upbeat, catchy French and Balearic Trance & House.. Being doubtful this trial for a New Year set will fit the crowd on the day, though I will use some of it, I am uploading it for the younger crowd (hint, hint for the title). It's a fun, sometimes trancy, sometimes housy, sometimes trousy set with a few new tunes and a lot of Xtian's edits and retake on old favourites of ours. Playlist ( I will put all details later, this is just by memory) Intro System Check Far l'Amore Medley (Roul & Doors & Franky Rizardo Alternative Remix) [Xtian Edit]. Bob Sinclar feat. Rafaella Cara Rain (The Piano Tribal Progressive Anthem Mix). Everytime You Need Me 2011 (Skjg Project Remix) {Xtian Extended Remix]. Fragma Toca's Miracle (Tom Novy & Jashari Deepdown Mix). Fragma How Would You Feel (Peter Rauhofer ReConstruction Mix) Pressure (Calvin West Extended Remix) [Xtian Edit] - Alex Kenji & Starkillers feat. Nadia Ali SOS (Tujamo Remix). Polina Griffith & Ralph Good Lady (DJ Falk Remix). Richard Grey Strings of Life Medley (Original vs Supernova vs Martijn Van Helden Remix) [Xtian NYC Edit]. Jerome Syndenham, Supernova, Martinn Van Helden Freed from Desire. Steve Forest Highlights: well...my kids like "Far l'Amore" typical French house from Bob Sinclar and I love the piano crescendos of "Rain" (that I will use on NY). Always fun to use new takes on "Everytime You Need Me " and Toca's Miracle from Fragma. SOS is maybe the tune I prefer as I had forgotten it at the bottom of the crate. "Lady" a 2011 remix of the old french house anthem. I went completely overlength with the "Strings of Life" edit but once it is cut down to an acceptable length, it will work its magic.. "Freed From Desire", well another party anthem.. As you can see, we are not breaking any grounds here. Finishing the "uber-structure" of the New Year set tonight, with a little bit of this one sprinkled throughout but targeted to a more discerning (read mature) crowd!! See you in the New Year. Happy 2012!
Liquid Trance Mission. On a Trance Mission! If you do not like trance, be it a 120 or 140 bpm, keep well away! You are warned! But if you are missing those days, download or stream and DO NOT SCROLL, this set is a Journey !!! Once upon a time in Melbourne, Australia, there was an underground dance collective called “Liquid”. It was a private, somewhat secret, dance club, which, once every two months, would send an sms to its members and announce on the day where the next reunion would be. Members were co-opted, with a one gig trial, whence if you did not fit, you were blacklisted with no second chance. Liquid was all about the music and the dance. What Liquid was NOT about was the clothes, the stilettoes, the designer hand-bags and the pre-requisite to “get sorted beforehand” (it was not about that either.). The only pre-requisites were: a bottle of water, good comfy trainers, a positive attitude and an able pair of dancing legs.. This community was diverse: the occasional pre-nekos mixing it up with the fluo & vinyl trance heads, the baggy tracksuit crowd and the somewhat more stylish goers. Yet, for all its diversity, it was a sharply homogenous group sharing a love for dance and music between like-minded peaceful people. They would not really hang out socially but for those few Liquid nights, it was strictly all about the DANCE! The music was mainly Trance (the 80s/90’s Ibiza style), not the hard crap but more the classical/vocal happy trance and what we did not know at the time was going to become Progressive House. The night was always a journey and when the DJ was dropping the 135 bpm + tunes, we were just soaking it in as it was only delivered at the very peak off the journey. This was SO last century.. 15 YEARS AGO. This set is the soundtrack of what a "Liquid" night could be, if held today! If anyone of those by-gone years read and hear this ( I won’t name and shame any of us) this is for YOU and ME! Playlist 2011 Thing Called Love (Arkum Filmscape vs. Andrew Mayer vs. PROFF vs Above & Beyond Clum Remix) [Xtian Mash-up and Edit w/Senheuser Samples & Pads). Above & Beyond feat. Richard Bedford 2006 No One On Earth (San Francisco Mix). Above & Beyond. 2011 Promises (Myon & Shane 54 Summer Of Love Intro Mix). Andain 2009 Lonely Girl (Gareth Emery Remix). Above And Beyond feat. Oceanlab 2009 Lonely Girl (Original Mix vs PROFF Remix) [Xtian Edit]. Above And Beyond feat. Oceanlab 2011 Love Is Not Enough (Original Mix) {Xtian Grooved Edit). Above & Beyond & Zoe Johnston 2008 The Ones that Get Away (Lost Love Dub vs. Extended Intro Mix) [Xtian Mashed Edit]. Arnej 2008 Take Me Away (Re-Ward Dub). 4 Strings 2011 Falling Away (Armin van Buuren Remix) [Xtian the DJ is Calling Me Edit]. Hannah 2011 Feels So Good (Jerome Ima-Ae Remix). Armin van Buuren feat Nadia Ali 2011 Pressure (Clokx Extended Commercial Remix). Alex Kenji, Starkillers, & Nadia Ali 2011 We Control the Sunlight (Original Mix). Aly & Fila feat Jwaydan Highlights: “No One on Earth” and “Love Is Not Enough” two A&B tracks are a cut above the rest, both courtesy of Christopher Doyle. I added Synth & pads but the structure of both tunes is so classical, the vocals so pure, this is Trance heaven. “Lonely Girl” is a catchy, hands up in the air Trance jam and will undoubtedly feature in my NY set. Armin’s “Fallen Away” being such a rip off (surely intentional and credited) of 4 Strings ‘ “Take Me Away”, they had to follow each other in spite of my original intention not to use tunes I knew. As for Nadia Ali, well, I cannot go into Trance/Progressive House and not include something of Nadia. Finally, “We Control the Sunlight”, I could see with Viv & the kids when I played the set for them that such a frantic pace was pushing the boundary but somehow I felt that it was the peak time tune befitting the end of the set.. Next upload will feature original takes on tunes we all know, more progressive & commercial than pure Trance… We are off to my beloved Trouse. Xtian
Viv's birthday mix... χρόνια πολλά! Bon Anniversaire! Happy Birthday! A happy "wake-me up" mix of trance with a dash of progressive house. If you yearn for uplifting trouse, this is a fair set.. The household had been asking for some new tunes and I could hardly cut them my next one "Aural Sex" without social services intervening. And all up, Trouse is what Viv likes the most.. I hope you like it V. I certainly had fun mixing it. I still can't really use my left arm so please do not expect flawless output from me.. Tracklist 2010 No Superstar (Daz Bailey Remix) [Xtian Trouse DJ Spen Love Edit]. Remady 2010 Keep On Rising (Mark Simmons Remix). Ian Carey 2011 Keep On Rising (DJ Emre Bulsat Remix) [Xtian Trance Edit w/Strings feat. Tarkan sample].

Shawnee Taylor 2010 Crash And Burn (Dj Shah Magic Island Extended Mix). Nadia Ali 2010 Rapture (Avicii New Generation Extended Mix). Nadia Ali 2011 Finally (10th Year Anniversary East & Young Remix) [Xtian Edit]. Kings of Tomorrow feat. Julie McKnight 2011 Finally (Avicii’s Sunshine YouTube Bootleg) [Xtian WTF Filtered Extended Edit]. Kings of Tomorrow feat. Julie McKnight Highlights: well looking at the playlist, I managed to pull out a farily current set without too many repeats of previous jams. "No Superstar" killer euro tune with Mr Pink vocals. I quite like my take on "Keep On Rising" with the Turkish sample but I am partial."How Would You Feel" old David Morales tune which I love seeing my kids dance to.. The trance mix of "Bodyswerve" is another family favourite and Morillo's "Stronger" might become an anthem... As for the Avicii's take on "Finally" this one is thanks to my nephew... The file's encoding is very average, as it is a YouTube bootleg, but is a sure buy as soon as it is commercially released. Thanks to Hugo & Julian for making me aware of it and I hope you like the Xtian WTF Extended Version. Cheers & Enjoy
Plug It In & Turn Me On (Pt.2) aka "Denise's Birthday Treat". Denise: I do hope you like the "treat"... I know I am late but it took a while to get it right.. Furthermore good luck on your new adventure.. Picking up where I left it with Part 1. Funky Sexy House & Trouse. Put on your dancing shoes, drop your inhibitions and let yourselves go. Current House/Trouse with a couple of oldies. A Xtian original with the "Yak Yaak Boom" edit of King of My Castle (my first GarageBand venture so be kind..). A set mainly for the younger generation but who knows... Mixed without proper gear , still I dare you not to have your feet urging for a dance once you get 30 mins in this probably Cheesy but effective set. Intro: We Love House Accapella Dave Floyd & Pookie w/Weekend (Marco Lys Remix). Haji & Emanuel 2011 New Day (Extended Mix) [Xtian Dubbed Edit]. Olav Basoski 2010 C’mon Get Phunky (Phat Mix).

Nadia Ali 2011 Take Over Control (Spencer & Hill Mix). Afrojack feat. Eva Simons Outro We Love House Accapella Dave Floyd & Pookie Highlights: looking at the playlist, it seems I went on another Nadia Ali bender... Guilty as charged I love her voice.. The Avicii remix of "Rapture" is really a great uplifting take. "Call My Name" new track from Ms. Ali shows again what a great vocalist and songwriter she is. Somehow I fitted in Lady Gaga ( I did Rihanna in the Pt.1) and the Dave Aude remix is actually surprisingly good. "Fantasy" is there because for once I found a way to mix in a 135 bpm track and the Tritonal Remix is a smasher. I will return to Traktor next mix. Finally back to a decent set-up! My foray in funky House/Trouse is over for now... Back to Deep & Soulful.. Music my old bones can actually relate to. And no more titillating covers for a while.. Promise!
I Had a request from Viv (my wife !!) to do a fun, " hands up in the air", vocal trance/house mix for her and the kids. Here it is! Highlights are: Forever and a Day, massive tune from Fragma, and King of My Castle 2009 (what a remix!). I tried very hard to mix moroder style Donna Summer & Hey Hey Riva Starr (be kind) So handbags down on the ground, circle up and starts dancing.. This one is unashamedly vocal, commercial, discofied.. Yet, you'll find some gems such as the new Moroder style remix of Hey Hey and as ordered, it includes Viv's current favourite: Cheryl Cole's "3 Words"... And yes I Love You... too ;=) Playlist Bruised Water (Adam K & Soha Club Mix) Chicane I Will Be Here (Wolfgang Gartner Remix) Tiësto & Sneaky Sound System When Love Takes Over (Norman Doray & Arno Cost Remix) David Guetta ft Kelly Rowland Deep At Night (Adam K & Soha Remix) Ercola vs. Heikki L Xtian edit w/Its So Easy Loveappella DJ Spen & the Muthafunkaz Forever And A Day (Christian Weber Remix) Fragma King Of My Castle 2009 (Dex Diamond Vocal Mix) Wamdue Project Feat.
