Awesome tech-trance from the early 2010s :)
Angry Man's signature style was recognizable among all the other tech-trance producers due to how melody-oriented and well-made his tracks were. It's like he made trance by the book while adding a slight personal touch.
He remained anonymous for a few years until he came forward about his real identity. Although he quit in 2016, he left behind several great trance tracks worth checking out.


edit: within a month of making this thread the original tracks I posted were taken off Youtube. Thanks @sszecret for bringing this up!

One of the "less angry" tracks from him :p I like it a lot though! A shame he stopped producing (or whoever did it for him - Sean Truby?).

Haha here's the Angry acid remix if you want something more intense:


I just prefer the original because it feels more multi-dimensional.

Oh yes, I totally forgot about that one! Both are great, but ultimately I think I'd go with the original as well.

The videos seem to have been privated, which is annoying. Luckily YT has a topic thing with auto-gen full versions. :D

Original Mix


Angry Acid Mix


Loved the Monster Digital releases from this time frame. I understand why they moved away from the label name itself, but still. As far as which of the two I'd go for, give me the Angry Acid Mix all day, every day. :p

Just updated the OP, thanks for the heads up!
Also, yay! As of September 5th, 2020 this is the most-viewed thread on the modern releases section.

Dave Parkinson produced for him I believe.
Source - was this from a Facebook post?
A quick search about Angry Man's ghost producer resulted in this reddit thread. According to one of the comments,

I actually heard a rumour that he was just a marketing gimmick by Askew. John hired a ghost producer and a DJ who would wear a mask to gigs, and that was your Angry Man. Eventually stopped making any money so Askew dropped them both

Tbh I can see John Askew doing something like that, but I haven't seen that rumor mentioned elsewhere on the internet.
