If you asked me as I was leaving the station on Sunday I would have said this was destined to be a great set. I even had hopes of adding it to the Featured Podcasts (in the sidebar). After a second listen however, the mixing is not as tight as I had hoped. Whatever. I had a blast in the studio this week.

This week’s mix is pretty diverse including a few classic trance anthems from Transa, Faster Kill off Paul Oakenfold’s A Lively Mind and sweet mash-up of the Bassment Jaxx. Sometimes you just gotta have fun!

This week I did set aside the Nukleuz records and laid down a fairly deep trance set including a few well-known trance classics. All in all the set went pretty smooth. Being a perfectionist I can hear every wobble but there were really no major mistakes.

Both the first hour and the second hour start with the same track which is written and produced by Nick Hook & Martin Sharp and released on Total Music Records – but then each set goes in its own direction.

(Note: there is some back and forth mixing so some of the records below are played more than once)
