This tag team set was three weeks in the making. Before you get too excited – that doesn’t mean we spent three weeks practicing, rather it got posponed for three weeks before we managed to wing it at the last minute. Regardless of how hard I try to keep from growing up it seems inevitable and with that comes substantially less time devoted to mixing records.

After waiting three weeks for the set it took another week (due to a bad cold) to get the podcast posted. My sincere appologies to Andrew who has waited patiently after I promised him to have it up last Monday!

This week’s show is a little different than usual. It’s continuous but not mixed and the tracks come from early rave compilation CDs. These are tracks that influenced me in my early rave days.

Warning: This week’s show contains coarse language!

Classic Rave Anthems Tracklist:

Dance 2 Trance – Power of American Natives
Channel X – Rave the Rhythm
Acen – Window in the Sky
Ayahuasca – Heliotropic Twist
The Prodigy – Charly
Man with No Name – Sugar Rush
Man with No Name – Adrenosphere
Ayahuasca – Psychopharm
The Infinity Project – Ego Shredder

Sorry about the delay in posting this week’s podcast. There was a glitch with the podcast server but it’s fixed so this week’s show is ready for download.

This week Caddyshack and I were going to play a Nukleuz Records tag team set but we’ve postponed that until next week (Sep 14). In it’s place this week’s set is filled with tracks off the brilliant intelligent hard trance label WellWicked as well as the complex layered trance of Noom Records.

I tried to write down the playlist as I went but be warned there could still be a few tracks out of order.

Natious – Lift (Bluestone Records)
Nuw Idol – Polly’s Pharmacy – Dr Bob X-SDose Remix (WellWicked Records)
Nuw Idol – Not Afraid (WellWicked Records)
Natious – Another World (Bluestone Records)
Nuw Idol – Kick Drum Domination (WellWicked Records)
Sonik Kross – Walking with Dreamz (WellWicked Records)
Nuw Idol & Gianni – The Gates of Time – Nuw Idol UK DK Mix (WellWicked Records)

Les Logos – 1.17 – Original Mix (Noom Records)
Instinct – Zero (Noom Records)
Nuw Idol – Out of Id (WellWicked Records)
Natious – Thrust 1
Nuw Idol – Dreamweaver (WellWicked Records)
solarize – DJ Idge (WellWicked Records)
Snack vs. Uwe Hacker – Dampframme – Street Mix (Noom Records)
Waterhouse – Is It Right (Noom Records)
Nuw Idol – The Gates of Time (WellWicked Records)

Our longest show in awhile – Caddyshack starts off the night until Smiley Mike shows up around 11:30. After a half hour set we extend the show for an extra 2hrs playing a non-stop 2 records each tag-team trance set that pushes trance in every possible direction.

Well this week’s show was a bit of a juggling act to get off the ground. CiTR has come a long way in updating the equipment in the on-air studio over the past few years – but I encountered some technical problems early in the show that resulted in a minute or two of dead air part-way into my set. The culprit? Almost broken – then completely broken RCA cables. But the show must go on – and it does. Technical issues finally get fixed by the 32 min mark.

Anyways, I haven’t given it my second listen yet but I know there’s at least a few good mixes and at least a few wobbles. If you read my last podcast post regarding phrasing – there’s at least one really well phrased mix in this set. I’ll post the time code when I get around to listening to it.

I think I’ll have trouble posting the exact playlist in order because I did go back and forth a fair bit, but I’ll post some of the tracks in this mix a little later. There’s quite a few classic trance anthems from years back that have been remixed and added into this week’s mix.

Oh, and the show got started about 20 minutes early, so it’s a bit of an extended set this week.

Here is the partial track listing from this week’s set. Not in perfect order!

Dumonde – God Music (Euphonic Gate Mix)
