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!

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!

New and old smashing tracks and a few that have been given the Smiley Mike touch – guaranteeing that you won’t hear a set quite like this anywhere else in the world!

After 15 years of DJing I can’t fend off the remix bug any longer. I still have a huge learning curve ahead of me but this week’s set features “first drafts” of two bootleg remixes. After a few listens, I’ve already got a few improvements in mind, but I’m pretty keen to hear feedback and constructive criticism too. As soon as I’ve tuned them up I’ll post links so you can find them on SoundCloud.

The first remix is really just a mashup of Activa’s Transmission with an old white label vinyl that I’ve had in the collection for a long while: Spoken Words by eGYPT.

The second remix is of Progress by Phil Reynolds and Ben Bennett – a killer track to begin with. It’s a bootleg remix so it’s a little choppy in a couple places, but overall it seems okay for one of my first endeavors into remixing. It uses parts from the original mix, parts from the Adrenalin Department remix and there’s a little sample in there from an Ephedrix track, along with a few sounds of my own.

The second half of the show features a guest mix by Simon Qudos – one of my current fave hard trance producers. Currently based out of the UK, he’s looking to debut in Canada next year. If you like this guest mix, check out Simon Qudos on sound cloud.
