Although there are many debated definitions since electronic music genre specification is sometimes pretty muddy, there is a clear and growing appreciation for the darker style of tech trance . Led by top DJs like Markus Schulz , Sander van Doorn , and Marcus Schossow , this genre is quite the twisted sister of the more traditional uplifting trance. Although the genre has been working more progressive beats in recent years, well-known Irish artists such as John O'Callaghan , Paul Oakenfold , and Simon Patterson excel at rocking higher bpm tech trance.

La Wallonie, Liège, son architecture à la fois romane et industrielle, ses chocolats chauds, ses bars chaleureux. Les Transardentes en plus de la musique c'est à peu près ça: un périple aux multiples souvenirs. Ce n'était pas sans surprises que même un père de famille accompagné de sa belle-mère nous répondait par reflex "Les Transardentes ?" avant même de lui demander notre chemin. Nous étions donc prévenus. Les festivals en Belgique ont la réputation d'être une véritable institution, les Transardentes en faisant bien naturellement partie. La dite réputation prend alors réellement forme une fois [...]

Etant nouveau chroniqueur, une petite présentation s'impose. J'ai découvert le monde de la musique électronique grâce à un ami qui m'a filé les premiers sons, puis j'ai vraiment accroché et j'ai creusé de mon côté. J'écoute surtout de la minimale, techno et house. J'ai mon matos de mix et je compte commencer la composition dans très peu de temps! Bref... bonne lecture et j'espère que ma sélection vous plaira. Bon et bien commençons notre petit quarté gagnant du jour Cela faisait bien longtemps que l'Allemand de Hamburg, Lovebirds , n'avait pas [...]

Its been an incredibly slow week, literally nothing has arrived in my email... so i decided to go back through the archives, and dredge up a couple of songs worthy of postage. I didn't have to look very far... Its a little bit Techno, a little bit Dubstep, and a whole lot of build. The song is aptly entitled " Kraft und Licht " which i have been reliably informed, translates as; "Power/force/strength and bright light." Throbbing synthesizers and the intoned female vocal absolutely ramp up the delicious anticipation for a jaw-breaking powerhouse drop... [...]

The mix boasts the freshest minimal and tech beats this side of Londontown, if you dig it as much as we do, check out the above tour dates, including what promises to be a dope desert session at this year's Burning Man .

That was it. After raving trough several days and nights, dancing on tanks, and seing the early morning sun, we can all go home again. We may have lost a few hours of sleep (to say the least) or given up part of our discernment over the course of the last few days. But then again, when Copenhagen comes together to celebrate, who really needs those anyway? What did we get in return? Plenty. The extravagant (and this year 100 % longer) 2-minute rave filled up Knippelsbro with thousands of people eager to participate. The bridge [...]

Man, it's been over a week and I haven't even had the chance to thank everyone for coming along to our warehouse party! I'M SORRY GUYS - THANKS FOR MAKING IT SUCH A SPECIAL NIGHT!!! Work has been a joke this last week - I had done 40 hours by the afternoon on Wednesday... ANYWAY - what an amazing night it was! Apologies to those who couldn't get in, we were 40 over capacity by 12.30 - meaning that even those who had bought tickets were getting turned away (if you would like a refund, please email me [...]
Ah yes! The Dubfire remix EP has arrived. One of United States' techno pioneers, Dustin Zahn (you all may know him from that demented Len Faki remix below) , spins his possessed clickidy-clack fix over the original. A true haunting remix! Pick up the full release HERE on beatport. Dubfire- Roadkill (Dustin Zahn's Enemy Remix) Download audio file (03-Roadkill-Dustin-Zahns-Enem y-Remix.mp3) [...]

M Backroom Honey (Original Mix) - Saeed Younan By far one of the simplest, catchiest, and raviest samples ever. This has Rave written all over it. Evil Live (Original Mix) - Piatto Techno at it's best. Kitch In (Original Mix) - Tim Green This track got a ton of attention from big names, I don't really understand why from my headphones, I'm guessing it comes more alive on giant speakers. Taipei Pocok Salata (Dub Mix) - Soliquid [...]
Thanks to the Erol Alkan Forums, (formally known as Gospel) I found this CHOON which is pretty much impossible to ask someone to I.D for you. Unless you bleep and bloop vocally, there was really no way of me finding this song without lady luck giving me a wet willy. I always hear this song [...]

So, I had nothing to do last Friday for a change. This was an unusual but happy situation as I didn't think my body could take anymore punishment after the last couple of weeks. Eventually though, I had my arm twisted to go and watch Hexstatic, mainly because it was free. Unfortunately, Hexstatic were pretty rubbish and about 15 minutes into the set the visuals were failing (one of the main reasons for going). So what else could we do? Well how about Chew the Fat? Album Launch Party for Fake Blood at Cable Club? Not far from [...]

I figured post turkey coma that now would be as good as any time to go through the trusty GDD inbox and look for something exciting //producers: thanks for all your submissions by the way, we really enjoy them - except for mashups, you can chill out on those) // Came across an email titled "Super Heavy Song for GDD". My curiosity was piqued. Onto the subject matter of the email: "this song rapes faces.. boys noize dropped it at his i love techno set and in his essential mix." Congratulations. You've won me over. Here's a 9 minute [...]

I Love Techno 09! How I wish I had been there. Myself and a group of friends went last year and it was some of the most hassle free out of country clubbing I have ever embarked on (anyone who has tried to reach the Benicassim festival can testify to this). We jumped on the Eurostar and after a couple of hours were nestled in the picturesque city of Brugge, before stomping off to Gent for one of the best nights of my life. So I was spitting feathers when this mangled girl saunters up to me last [...]

Damn, I'm so bummed out I didn't go to this years I Love Techno. After seeing the first videos showing up on youtube.com I just know it was a sick party. But there is good knows for all dumb f*cks like me who didn't go, Studio Brussel (Belgian radiostation) has followed I Love Techno from the beginning till the end. You can listen to the whole broadcast again on their website or you can download it using the links below (currently only rapidshare links). For all you not dutch-speeking people, some interviews are in dutch .... [...]
