Wow,this has been 24 years in the making - my chilled version of the 1999 Trance classic Transa - 'Supernova' releases today!!

This was one of my favourite Trance tracks which i had back in the day,on CDs such as Euphoria mixed by Matt Darey and Magik 5 mixed by Tiësto.

My Chilled Trance version was approved by the Transa guys themselves,and here we have it finally released today alongside Binary Finary and Kenny Palmer remixes.

It is available on Beatport,Spotify,Bandcamp etc.

Days like these make it worthwhile making the music.

This was a really interesting read from your beginnings to what you achieved over time. Well done, and congratulations on seeing your work pay off! It's a good feeling for sure. I wish you all the continued success in the future.

One thing that has developed going into 2024,is my music emerging on Tiktok. My remix of Now We Are Free has so far been featured on over 1,000 user videos and gathered over 15 Million streams,which is incredible. But because Tiktok pays about $0.03 for every video created,and not every music stream - you hardly make any revenue for millions of plays - which is ridiculous!

I think recently i had experience my first 'producer burnout' after all these years,id only made one track in the first 6 months of this year,i just had no inspiration or drive...i feel i need to make a certain number of tracks a year like i always do,i put pressure on myself - ive made well over 200 tracks in total!

But i had some time off and the inspiration seems to have come back,ive just made 3 tracks in about 3 weeks!

And here is my latest original track - The Only Constant Of Nature Is Change. It is on my Youtube channel now..

Wonderful!

A big upgrade to my studio in 2024 - Logic Pro XI running on my new M2 Pro Macbook! This is a snippet of my very first project on it! Ive been running Logic Pro 8 since 2007 on my old iMac - so this upgrade was long overdue!

 

[Halon]

Noice!
