Hi all, just wanted to share a mix with some fellow classic trance lovers. It's kind of a tapestry of trance textures and breakdowns in loop form, put together about 3 years ago now.

The tracks were ripped from vinyl, looped on CDJs and then compiled/edited further in ableton.

More info, including some soundbites from the "Hypnotized" Trance book released around the same time.

Hello Trance Nation! I was thinking.... Today there is an epidemic of attention deficit. New younger generations have their brains wired by social media for instant gratification. They need content to hook them up in the first 3 seconds to give it another 10 seconds and than maybe, another 30... Thats why Trance got demoted from top of the world to the niche.

I Remeber that trance was the journey. So many tunes I wouldn't like as a stand alone but as a part of the sets I would adore them! Back then it was quite common for a tune to last 8-11 min.

Just wanted to ask, what's yours favourite tune that is 8-9+ min long? What's yours favourite looongest tune.

Recently I've been banging Swenson and Gielen ft Jan Johnston - Beachbreeze and it's a journey! Of a new one's, I would recommend Enigma state - In my fantasy.

This is a long shot and I may have a few details mixed up but back in 2012ish there was a podcast called Trance Express with DL and Mac. I’m 80% sure of those details.

They released a summer review mix that had Coriolis by Andrew Rayel and Everywhere by Paul Van Dyk. A remix of Called out in the Dark as well. I believe the year was 2012.

I listened to this episode a million times and am wondering if anyone recognizes this podcast or has any idea where to find it. It’s been driving me crazy.

100% Vinyl. 100% Classics.

Enjoy :)
