    Subculture - Year Mix 2025

    So I created this set back in December to showcase the best of Subculture for the year 2025. Think the site was down back then so I'm sharing it now instead. In my opinion Subculture is one of the best trance labels, and John O'Callaghan in particular had a superb year! So this set has so...

    DuMonde - Never Look Back (2025 Rework)

    What a belter of a tune this is! Loved the original (and remixes) and it's great to see DuMonde back in the scene with a modern rework of this anthem.

    The Best Of... STARPICKER (Producer Showcase)

    Starpicker is a relatively new artist on the scene and somewhat unknown, but has produced some outstanding tunes and got releases on GO Music and Subculture. He caught my attention with his tune "A New Age" and its incredible breakdown and I love the catchy uplifting melodies that he uses in...

    Talla 2XLC & Lost Witness - Red Sun Rising

    Love the work of Talla 2XLC and been impressed with his remixes of the classics over recent years, but this one not so much. It's a decent production, but I guess I was hoping for something more exceptional. This remake that he has done with Lost Witness doesn't follow the same melodies, and...

    Starpicker - Purified (Original Mix) ???

    Does anyone know about the original mix of this tune? Only ever heard or seen mention of the Giuseppe Ottaviani retouch. Seems strange that there is no original version, but perhaps during discussions pre-release (it came out on GO Music) both artists agreed to only put out GO's version? Unusual.
