Well, a lot of you guys are always asking for some good music, good artists/dj's, what have you.

On XM Radio, I listen to Armin Van Burren every week. He's been doing this show, A State of Trance for over 5 years now, it's weekly, and played on XM's Channel 81, The System, with one repeat a week. You can download the episodes, ranging from 2 to 8 hours, all over the net.

I'm getting pumped up for a show by Kaskade tonight here in ABQ, so I thought I'd share what I'm catching up to right now.

ASOT 323 (Yes, that's 323 shows now...) - Yearmix 2007 (Biggest Dance/Trance songs of 2007)
^^^
One of my favorite tunes is at 10:26. Unfortunately, this mix is full of VERY short cuts of all of these songs. If you DL any of the shows before 323, you'll get the fuller versions, Armin usually keeps the songs pretty close to original length.

ASOT 333 - Live (Sometimes his shows are done at live events, there's some REALLY good shit in this one...)

EVERY ASOT Mix, from 001 to current.


Anyways, thought I'd hook you guys and gals up with some free music.

i love a good catchy beat with a bit of soundtrack. Can't wait to see what 2008 brings. For music I listen to Matt Darey's Nocturnal, or the GAreth Emery podcast.

I know a few local DJ's around Chi town, and I know of some very good ones.

DJ Inphinity
DJ Rozz
Quick Mixin Nick
DJ Skeptyk
DJ Majix
To Cool Chris
DJ Caffeine
DJ Markski
Chris B
DJ Chance


DJ Inphinity is probably my fav though. If anyone wants some I can send it overrrr.

 

Some of those are very good, some of them, VERY bad.

Personally, I don't go to raves, it just ends out being a bunch of 14 year olds high on X listening to some "underground" dj tear up his dads record collection from the 70's. I'm also not a fan of Techno at all.

Confused? I thought so. LOL

Armin is good for Trance, but I've got other favorites.

BT
ATB
The Crystal Method
Uberzone
DJ Dan
Dj Lisa Loud
The Chemical Brothers
DJ Hyper
Kaskade
Sandra Collins
Above and Beyond
Mika Kouisma

The list could go on and on, I've got a lot of favorites. LOL

Happy to see that you like this Dj, funny that Dutch Dj's get so famous all over the world.Armin is now the no.1 DJ in the world, before him it was tiesto for several years, makes me proud to be Dutch! lmao.gif


P.s. is 'gabber' really a word used by you guys?It's actually a Dutch word.....
