A fantastic Yin and Yang show this week with special guest Steve Krueger in the studio to start things off with a groovy trance set.
The second half of the show picks up the pace with a hard acid trance set featuring two brand new promo tracks from Ignite Digital – Future Manipulation by Burak Harsitlioglu and Alternative by On NRG. Both tracks will appear on the forthcoming Zest album from Ignite Digital, mixed by Simon Qudos (another of my current faves). On NRG caught my attention a few weeks back when I included the track On Stars in The Burning Man Mix (which seems to be quite a popular mix).
Enjoy this week’s show and, if you haven’t yet, take a minute to join the Trancendance Fan Page on Facebook.

Hard Trance
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.
