I’ve been slow getting this posted, but here it is. Caddyshack forgot his power cable this week and his laptop died right before his set. Hence the ultimate DJ test, which is playing on someone else’s gear, with someone else’s record collection. In my opinion a real DJ worth his beans can find stuff and make it work in just about any situation

The sunshine seems to be missing this summer. What better reason to hang out with some lasers and bass-bins behind the decks at your favourite local club.

The Internet feed was down this week, and I thought I had lost the whole podcast, but after a little digging and a little pixie dust, here we go! (And it’s a good one, so find an excuse to be home alone and crank the volume right up to the top!)

Wow, after a terrible experience on Saturday trying to mix with CDJs, it felt great to lay down a killer epic journey for tonight’s podcast. It’s got the melodic and uplifting breakdowns, some stomping hard beats that deliver when they’re supposed to, and some throwback remixes of some classic trance anthems including I Feel Love by CRW and a remix of Urban Hype’s A Trip to Trumpton by Toryn D. This is the set inspired by the Spirit of Squamish where the circle once again returned to gather on Saturday. It was so good to see so many old friends and, as always, make a few new ones too!

Wow – I was rummaging through old mix tapes, which lead me to look up a tracklist of an old skool trance and breakbeat mixtape by Kid Bippy – circa 1995. That lead me looking up some of the tracks on YouTube and that planted the seed for this week’s ultimate throwback old skool trance mix.

There are a few bumps along the way – such as the first mix or two – but get past that and get into some super long mixes of some of the most recognizable trance anthems of the early 90s. Did people even call them anthems back then?

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.
