2014 Oct Spring has Sprung (Vintage Trance for Vintage Ravers)




House is a Journey show

Summary: Spring has Sprung Pt.3 (Vintage Trance for Vintage Ravers)   Third and last part.. It got a bit more interesting from there on..   A bit of context.. For a few years, our crew has been yearning for some good old uplifting Trance.. Back to the 90’s.. I was quite apprehensive about it, not being sure that we ,still, actually could handle any sustained trance.   I did learn a few things whilst mixing the set and I will come back to that later, but I am happy to report that I was proven wrong., Trance can work if appropriately tailored to the crowd.   Straight out of the mixer with all the imperfections of live mixing.. Be kind! It consists mainly of big anthems and/or Xtian’s Edits I have dropped before, with a couple a new mash-ups I have been working on..   Playlist: Toca’s Miracle (Tom Novy Jashari Deepdown Mix). Fragma Touch Me (Classic 2009 Mix). Tom & Jerry feat Abigail Bailey Rapture (Dance Extended Mix). ReUnited See The  Sun (Aurosonic Intro Remix). Matt Darey, Urban Astronauts, Kate Smith Don't Give Up (Reboot). Chicane feat. Bryan Adams Empty Streets (Carl Hanaghan & Ted Nilsson Remix). Late Night Alumni Room for Happiness (Extended Mix).

Tess, Ad Brown Track to Infinity (Extended Version). DJ Sveta, Alexsandra Mell Young and Beautiful (Nikos Kalogerias Remix). Lana Del Rey Tell Me Why (Vocal Club Mix). Supermode Tell Me Why You Like Titanium? (Xtian Originall Edit). Supermode, Power Music, Xtian feat. Sia As The Rush Comes (Gabriel And Dresden Mix). Motorcycle Falling Away (Armin van Buuren Remix vs. Edit)). Hannah 9PM (Till I Come) [Sequential One 1999 Remix]. ATB Silence (Niels Van Gogh Vs. Thomas Gold Dub Mix). Delerium The Silence of Tracey (Tommy Mc's Sundown Remix) [Xtian Mash Edit] EBTG Vs Soul Vision Vs Delerium Finally Missing the Silence  (Xtian Original Edit). Delerium vs EBTG vs KOT, Xtian Finally (Avicii s Sunshine Bootleg). Kings of Tomorrow Reach out For Harmony (Xtian Mash). Blood Groove & Kikis, Xtian, Marc Evans     Highlights: Give a fair go to the many Xtian Edits and mashups, they are fun and in some cases decent.. I learned a valuable lesson for the next time I play Trance: A) Maximum length of set should be 1h30 B) Unless the track is an ABSOLUTE ANTHEM  (and there are max 10 of these all around) no track should be more than 4/5 minutes, therefore only radio edits to be used in the future. C) Attention span of the punters is 2 minutes if nothing change ( levels etc...).   I will be back with an original mix within a fortnight..   To our friends.. Thanks it was fab to see you having a good time!!   Xtian
