After seeing Sasha and Howells at the GU party I had the groove in me and decided to take the new studio for a test drive.
The Trancethetics series was a tool to find where I sit in the world of progressive trance after a long break. (and even if that world even really existed anymore)
I found it.
I could bang one of these out monthly as the tunes are so plentiful but now its time knuckle down on the production side for a few months.
It is beginning to pop up in big names sets but you wont find this type of progressive trance music played as a singular full set by many other DJs. Yet. Its not Armin or Joof. And its not 'melodic techno'. This is the Gen Z trance sound (which is reminiscent of early Gen X funnily enough) taken a bit further towards its logical conclusion.
There are only a few guys & gals in the UK, France & Germany that are coming close to this and it doesn't even really have a subgenre name yet - but when its the big sound in a year or 2 - remember where you first heard it.
Come take a peak into the future with me.
