Trancendance Does Electro House

So we just got back from the Sander van Doorn show at the Vancouver Convention Centre. Last week it was the Benny Benassi show, but it was really Sander’s show. Electro House isn’t something we play a lot of, but Sander’s set was so good, we figured we dig up some of the tracks he played and see what happens. One of the funniest things I noticed, is that half of these Electro HOUSE tracks are remixed TRANCE tracks! Trance. FTW. :)

Trance Anthems Mixed

I was really struggling to find a direction for this week’s set. I’m pretty sure I’ve been fighting off a cold and it seems like my head was just scattered. As it turns out, my opening set was going quite well, right up until the last track. All too often I make the decision to play “just one more”, and all too often it’s that last track that just doesn’t quite fit. If I’d listened to that quiet voice in the back of my head, I probably could have anticipated that it just wasn’t quite going to work… but some people are better listeners than others ;)

The Four Corners of Trance
Deep Trance Mix

This week dj Smiley Mike slows it down for a deep trance mix while dj Caddyshack gets inspired by David Guetta’s recent appearance in Vancouver, and touches on all four corners of trance from the borderline house sounds of Nalin & Kane’s Beachball to the ripping acid sounds of I am Techno by TV Rock.
