See Us On That Google+

We’re both on the fairly new social network Google+ and are always looking for folk to add to a Sweaty circle, to talk shit with about tunes, mixes & anything mahoosively sweaty. NOVEMBER UPDATE: We’ve now… started a G+ page, click HERE.

May even organise some Hangouts as long as we all wear gimp masks. If you want to get in touch on there, drop a comment below and we’ll add you as soon as we see it. We don’t bother with a site email for here at the moment and won’t be posting our personal emails on here as the Viagra bots may well come and shaft us in the precious rear!

Plus yourself right up and all that.

Looks good yes? It’s the first of its kind and sure to be a pleasure to listen to for the full 2 days! Sure is a pleasure to be on the schedule too, catch the schedule list here. I’ll be spinning the shit at 1pm UK, wedged in between 2 very talented chaps by the names of Jorj Trousy & Indecent Noise. I’m looking forward to hearing many sets in the event, but especially those by Daniel Kandi & Karanda, woot!

Hello from me!

Hello from me!

As Mr Steve Stifler would say “sit back, relax and let the good times roll!!”

Special Mix To Conclude 2008!

proxi — Mon, 08 Dec 2008 12:26:27 +0000

I would like to announce the incoming radio mix Journey’s End, coming to Trance.FM on the 27th of December. Showcased are my favourite tracks of 2008, stacked together neatly into a monstrous 4 hour toss-off. Imagine the mess. The mix will be available right here in the Deviances area, right after broadcast. TIU then reaches it’s 40th episode the next day, going ahead as normal.

Refreshed my head.

Having had less time around here the last few weeks (suspicious death investigations are quite mind-consuming), I’ve now got me head together and pressed on.

Finished off a new bootleg, which you can hear on the right in the mp3 player. The vocals of Lovefool by The Cardigans are something I’ve always loved and although I listen to the original and love the accompanying tune to it, I’ve often felt there’s need for a more ethereal and haunting backdrop. I’m hoping to start fiddling on two more bootlegs soon that are already complete in my mind, just not on the PC! Involving acapellas from Killers – Human and a classic track by Daft Punk.

Added the Halloween mix as you can see, from FF^Radio 2 years ago. I haven’t had the time sadly to do a new mix this year which is a shame. As with the bootlegs, the vision is there, and I know what material to use in what part of the mix. But simply haven’t been able to do it! DO ITTT! Get to de chopper! The mix is also on the mp3 player to the right. As is my Steve Murano tribute mix, the rather dark “Elite Chopping”. he uses Miracle Blades the crazy hombre, the Mk3 Perfection series no doubt!

REALLY looking forward to my latest Trancing It Up show on Trance.FM, I’m visualizing something slightly different from the norm for the first half hour, and have something I treasure very dearly to give a debut to. Random picture of the month follows….!

Boo hoo hoo

Ugh.

So, I had to remake the whole site, and I can happily say I wouldn’t prefer doing that over having my bollocks teased with a boiling hot fork. It’s an absolute cunt of a theme to use too. Adding stuff or removing stuff is like using petrol-soaked hands to play Jenga with the bricks on fire. It all came about following my previous webhoster making my old page do a Harold Bishop. Well, except big Hazza never had a contract saying he was gonna be flapping his jowels on screen for another 8 months when he was given the shove. Trust me, never go to Streamline.net, they’re about as fun as spending 3 months of Saturday nights watching the X Factor. If they provided a pizza service you’d be left gazumped as they’d come and collect it for return after you polish off one slice. Bellboys.

I’ll be adding up bits & bobs from the days, months, years gone by, when I feel like it. What I’m compiling slowly aswell is a full list of all my recorded mixes, whether on radio or not. All genres, all lengths. There’s one or two mixes and it’d be nice to keep a database of the mixes gone by. There’ll be a lot more new stuff to come however, with 2 projects planned in different styles to my norm. My latest TIU is on Trance.FM this coming Monday.

Random picture time…

Ahh. Everything feels better now

About The Series

proxi — Fri, 25 Apr 2008 14:27:38 +0000

“Trancing It Up” is a collection of two-hour DJ mixes taking listeners (and myself) on a fairytale-like voyage through contrasting emotions. In it’s lifetime, the series has been broadcast on several web streams around the net, with current resident status being held on 2 popular radio streams. What I like and have to say about the mix format and style is this :-

* No guest mixes. It’s all about my style, shite or not. I’m not here to rely on others to get me through it.
* It is strictly a 2 hour show, the only exceptions being “end of year mixes” or anniversary mixes.
* I wouldn’t bother doing it if there were no tunes each month that I really liked. None are fillers.
* Quality not quantity, I’d rather do less mixes with better tracks, I have a unique taste, it’s hard to find tunes I really like.
* First mix was broadcasted on the 13th of September 2005, on Tuna-Pie, a former music site & radio stream provider, later called Digital-Angels.
* After several months break due to personal commitments, the mix series was brought back to life in April 2008.
* It’s now broadcasted on the 4th Sunday of every month on www.Trance.FM, at 14:00 UK / GMT time, and DiscoverTrance.com on the last Sunday of every month at 9pm UK / GMT time. I was offered the chance to do it weekly, although I turned it down due to the fact the series would lose quality with increased show numbers.
