Trancendance

If you asked me as I was leaving the station on Sunday I would have said this was destined to be a great set. I even had hopes of adding it to the Featured Podcasts (in the sidebar). After a second listen however, the mixing is not as tight as I had hoped. Whatever. I had a blast in the studio this week. This week's mix is pretty diverse including a few classic trance anthems from Transa, Faster Kill off Paul Oakenfold's A ... Read More

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.

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 ... Read More

DJ John Digweed Vancouver 2008 with Kevin Shiu Friday Sep 12, 2008 @ Celebrities Nightclub, Downtown, Vancouver Cost: $35 By: Blueprint Events John Digweed is not one of my favourite DJs but he is world class. Well known as half of Sasha & Digweed - the DJs behind the highly successful Northern Exposure CDs - John Digweed is a little too melodic for my taste which prefers a little more intensity. I have heard Digweed play once - with Sasha - at a huge party in ... Read More

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 ... Read More
