I spent the previous week digitizing some old vinyl tracks, and there are some killer records in my set that you just can’t find in the digital stores, or even on YouTube. But those old tracks tend to drift a lot more and keeping the beats lined up is a lot tougher, especially after you’ve (I’ve) gotten used to today’s tight digital productions.

The real killer set this week is from Steve Krueger who lays down a thumpin’ trance mix that is a must hear. Plus, there’s a special set from DJ Zero D. Special thanks to the Vancouver Trance Family!

My apologies, but I think the last few tracks of Zero D’s set got cut off from the end of the podcast. You can find his full set available for download along with some others on the Zero Disbelief website.

Just before the show this week I discovered two albums worth picking up. Usually I only like one or two tracks off an album, but these two are fantastic all the way through. The first feature album is “Love Machine” by a group called Save the Robot. Save the Robot is made up of Ari Linker (also known as Alien Project) and Ido Liran (also known as Quadra). It’s not surprising since I discovered Alien Project a few weeks ago after falling in love with their “Activation Portal” album, and along the way I found a few tracks by Quadra that were equally rich. I can only hope we see/hear more from these guys!

The second album featured is by non other than Quadra. After the first few tracks that caught my interest, IU went looking for more and found their “Voice of Reason” album. We live in the era of music download sites like iTunes and Track it Down, where you can pick and choose which songs you want for as low as 99 cents – so I know an album has to be exceptional when I fork out for the whole damn thing!

So I’m just the first third of this week’s mix. Caddyshack and Steve Krueger lay down breaks and deep trance sets to make it a 3 hour show this week. If you like the show, don’t just download – subscribe in iTunes – it looks good in the radio station stats!
