Trancendance Invades Synaptic Sandwich
Saturday Night Trance

When DJ Cyber asked me to fill in for him this week I was only too happy to jump at another chance to play loud trance this weekend. Synaptic Sandwich has been on-air even longer than Trancendance, filling the 9-11pm (PST) Saturday Night time slot on CiTR 101.9fm.

Tonight’s show got started about a half hour early at about 8:30 with some of Christopher Lawrence’s live set from Burning Man 2007. DJ Quake brought us across the 9 o’clock hour getting us warmed up for my live mix.

Fusion Psytrance Mix

This week was as indecisive as I’ve been in a long time! I’ve got ideas percolating for a classic anthem set, and olskool rave set and a Top 10 Eve Records set – and I just couldn’t decide what to play right up until the show started this week.

Good friend Morgan from the Spirit Circle dropped by this week too, although he somehow managed to duck out at just the right time to avoid being on air! I found out that Morgan got turned on to electronic dance music the same way I did, by listening to CiTR back in the early 90s when shows like Homebass with DJ Noah, Synaptic Sandwhich with DJ Cyber and, drum roll please… Digital Alarm Chronometer with DJ Vadar were ruling the airwaves! Little did Morgan know, I became a regular fixture on Digital Alarm Chronometer starting in about 1994!

Love Parade Mix
A Moment of Psy-lence for the 2010 Love Parade Tragedy

This week’s show is dedicated to the friends and families of the 19 people who were trampled to death at the 2010 Love Parade in Germany.

Is it possible to to be deep and fullon at the same time? I tend to think of them as somewhat opposite, but this week’s show really seems to bridge the gap. Two new tracks worth mentioning are Black Jack by Mekkanikka and Nu Metro by Broken Toy.

I couldn’t get the second half of the Simon Qudos guest mix working, so the second half of the show features a BBC essential mix by Christopher Lawrence from 2004. Watch for the second half of my Simon Qudos guest mix in the coming weeks!

Trancendance invades Rainbow Groove

DJ BFad needed a fill-in for Rainbow Groove this week and I was able to snatch the opportunity. I’m sure my set was a bit harder than BFad’s crowd is used to, but I did try to funk it up a bit with some heavily remixed tracks by some pretty recognizable artists.

The Shiver Mix
Classic Trance Anthem Remixes and PsyTrance Mash-Ups

Another smashing week with an extended 3hr show! This week my set features remixes of classic trance anthems and trance mash-ups that should send shivers down your spine and leave your whole body tingling! I’ve always liked the heavy remixes and mash-ups, but often they’re on the lighter side. Not this set! At 145bpm it’s an epic PsyTrance set not to be missed! Tell your friends!

During the second half of the show, after his excursion into Drum & Bass, Caddyshack returns to trance with an Epic Trance mix that combines both new and old favourites.
