    A deep, spacey techno thing I quite liked:

    A few compilations that may have gone under the radar, with what I thought were the standout tracks: Dean - Unison SLTBQ - Flashback DAMNC - Penseive Story Lanky - Sweet Dreams Goldraver - Kiekebusch Clint - Planet Groove

    That Aurora Halal EP appeared on my feed the other day too, big Space Manoeuvres vibes. This forthcoming Philip Chernikov EP has similar a similar Sasha/Digweed/Twilo feel: And this recent track of his with a familiar sample:

    Megapost alert, but a few that didn't make it into the latest mix:

    New mix that deliberately leans into the clubbier/commercial side of things. Deeper prog and trance mixes will follow soon but I wanted to get this out of my system. 01. Luuk van Dijk - Everything (Spriitzz Remix) 02. Azzecca - Al's Hot Soup 03. 131bpm & Bella Sarris - Let's Ride (Wigs Remix)...

    What was the first ever 'Uplifting' subgenre track? Who coined the term?

    I think you are spot on and not getting many helpful replies. I'm sure plenty of people had used 'uplifting' as an adjective to describe trance music over the years, but in my experience 'uplifting trance' as a genre tag was the one that stuck as part of a backlash against the whole...

    TF Radio #026 - The Best Of 2025 (Underground) - Hoopoe

    Glad to see this going down well ≡:^ I can often let projects drift on for way too long but I was happy to get this done while 2025 is still relatively fresh in the memory. I'll be honest, the first hour is less in my wheelhouse and was pretty difficult to arrange/mix, hence a few edits and a...

    Old School/Classic Trance Producers in 2020 (and beyond)?

    And while I don't usually like to give away my weapons before I've used them, I'm sure this will go down well here: A project by Alex Kassian & Hiroaki Oba. Features a club mix, dub mix and chillout mix. They released a previous instalment last year, but it was a bit too long and meandering...

    While I'm here, have another mix from Jazzy and Spriitzz b2b:

    Old School/Classic Trance Producers in 2020 (and beyond)?

    ^ The flip side of that sounds equally good to me. I'm impatiently waiting for another of his, that I believe is called Foresight, and can be heard in both the mixes below. First is Body Clinic and Wigs b2b on BC's radio show, which contains some older prog along with newer stuff from Aiden...

    Jazzy, Spriitzz - Can't Deny It (Original / Spray VIP) [Chaos]

    Spriitzz (AKA Spray) teams up with Irish DJ and singer Jazzy for this pop/dance/trance crossover. Not one for serious underground heads, more like next generation Fragma or Alice Deejay but it's a nice example of mainstream trance in 2026. Despite being quite 'in demand' Spriitzz/Spray seems to...
