The love of my life (Sini) has been keeping me busy all year long but now it was time to build a set to celebrate the New Year! 🥳

The fourteenth entry in my FINSIDE JOB mix series 🎧
https://mixcloud.com/Finside/finside-job-14/
Dedicated to the three godfathers of trance; Ferry Corsten, Armin van Buuren and Tijs Verwest a.k.a. Tiësto, the three musketeers who got me into trance in the late 1990's. All of these tracks are from 25 years ago (give or take) - melodic and uplifting trance @ 140 bpm 🙌🏻😊
Recording date 31.12.2024

Two Armin remixes, two Armin & Tiësto collaborations, two Tiësto productions, two Ferry & Tiësto collabs + one Tiësto & Benno de Goeij (from Rank 1) collab remixed by Ferry and finally the greatest track Tiësto has ever produced (alongside Ronald van Gelderen who produced a highly similar track just before Suburban Train).

70 minutes of pure classic trance, mixed without Rekordbox benefits and absolutely NO SYNC.

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2025! ❤️

Tracklist:
Aria - Dido (Armin van Buuren's Universal Religion Mix)
Airscape - L'Esperanza (Armin van Buuren's Rising Star Mix)
Alibi - Eternity
Major League - Wonder?
Allure - We Ran At Dawn (Magikal Remake)

Mint condition (new & sealed) rare CD Maxi arrived from Spain today 😍 I played this as the opening track of my set @ fUnderGround & DwS Presents : Temerican Barshow a couple of weeks ago but it was an 8-minute edit - this CD includes the full 14-minute progressive trance masterpiece: Malcolm McLaren - The Bell Song (Parks & Wilson V's Obscure Remembrance Mix) 🤤

You can listen to it in its full lenght glory here:

Birthday party / unofficial American Car Show after party in Hard Rock House, Roihuvuori, Helsinki, hosted by fUnderGround Lahti & DwS.
My first "prime" set time, from 00:00 to 01:00 and what a pleasure it was to play to a nicely warmed up crowd. Night's theme was to play trance and psytrance and right after learning this when I was booked to play at this event I started to compile the set. From deep progressive trance to techno to psy and goa trance - from me a first of its kind. I had SO MUCH fun compiling and, most of all, playing this set!
Featuring sublime The Bell Song, staggering remix of New York FM, legendary The Rebel with Push's touch, brilliant Moaner (something quite unique spawned from the terrible film Batman & Robin) and tracks by some of my favorite artists (Martin Freeland, Avi Shmailov, Yahel Sherman and John '00' Fleming + Ricky Smith, not to mention BPC) from these genres.
This is a JOURNEY @ 138-148 bpm. Get on board, I hope you like it!

My third DJ gig, in Viking Saga Electronic Dance Voyage, a whole new concept in Finland's electronic music scene. The first event featured eleven Finnish artists in total, including Super8 & Tab, D.N.A and Peetu S. What an honor it was to be a part of this party cruise and to kick it off with my 90-minute set (first of its kind) on the eve of my birthday!
Recorded live on stage 27.1.2024 - no sync, no rekordbox benefits - using brand-new Pioneer A9 mixer and CDJ-3000 players.
Utopia Trance (3.2.2024) was big, this was just as big in terms of how much it meant to me as a performing DJ. My performance started with Moby's staggering Sunday, followed by Faithless with their rather unknown but brilliant Euphoric Mix of Don't Leave, made alongside their massive early career hits. Getting into "it", as a second intro if you will, with beautiful Poem by Lolo (Airwave). Then it's TRANCE, in its various forms, all the way till the end.
I'm very pleased with this one - what do you think? 😊

TRANCE @ 126-140 bpm, from calm and progressive start to melodic and uplifting finale 🎧

My fourth and, so far, biggest DJ gig, in Utopia Trance - John Askew which was a part of 2-day Utopia Festival 2024 (headliners include Angerfist, Brennan Heart, Rooler and Keltek) held in Helsinki, Finland.
Recorded live on stage 3.2.2024 - without using sync button and without rekordbox benefits, as always.
This night was A DREAM COME TRUE in every way - dear friends on and off the stage, a legendary venue, Kaapelitehdas, and a legendary headliner, John Askew, playing on the same stage as me. AND a considerable number of trance music lovers on the dancefloor. All of this must have affected me; in places this set, from a technical point of view, isn't one of my best efforts. DJing is forever learning but also forever improving.
I'm confident by saying that the track selection on this set is very good. This time I'm not going to take you through each track - please find out yourself if the set has that "flow" 🤗
I'm hungry and READY for more and it feels like I'm born to do this 💪🏻🥰

Heavily but not altogether progressive trance @ 128-138 bpm 🎧
https://mixcloud.com/Finside/utopia-trance-322024-finside/

Tracklist:
God Within - Raincry (Submerged)
Lost It .Com - Animal (Trance Mix)
Holden & Thompson - Nothing (93 Returning Mix)
Tekara feat. Lucy Cotter - Breathe In You (M & M Dub)
Philippe van Mullem - The Secret Folder (Part I)
Moby - Why Does My Heart Feel So Bad? (Ferry Corsten Remix)
Mea Culpa - Spiritual Light (John '00' Fleming Mix)
B.B.E. - Flash
Push - Universal Nation (Ferry Corsten Remix)

The last couple of months of 2023 were, well, flourishing; two massive gigs coming up on Jan 27th Viking Saga Electronic Dance Voyage and Feb 3rd Utopia Trance - John Askew - time to bring you one more mix before them 😊

The thirteenth entry in my FINSIDE JOB mix series 🎧
https://mixcloud.com/Finside/finside-job-13/
Progressive, melodic and eventually hard @ 135-136 bpm
Recording date 5.1.2024

Forever Waiting waited for like ten sets to be included (originally the opening track of FINSIDE JOB 2). Followed by an essential piece of vocal bliss by Steve Helstrip and my favorite, original non-vocal version of Armin's Shivers. Yahel's hypnotic masterpiece leads us to the best version of Adagio For Strings. What, Britney Spears? Yes, remixed by Tony, Jono & Paavo - result: highest quality trance. Talking about high quality, P. Minnaard & R. Hagen's The Timelord truly delivers and Marinus Verkuijlen delights us with the B-side track of C:/del*.mp3. Going harder with C.J. Dolan's ahead-of-its-time track Dreams and a banging remix of Simon Berry's Mongoose, under one of my favorite labels, Platipus.

Tracklist:
Mr. Sam vs. Fred Baker present As One - Forever Waiting
The Thrillseekers - Dreaming Of You
Armin van Buuren - Birth Of An Angel
Yahel - You Inside
William Orbit - Barber's Adagio For Strings (Ferry Corsten Remix)
Britney Spears - Everytime (Above & Beyond Club Mix)
Signum - The Timelord
Marco V - Solarize
Quench - Dreams
Art Of Trance - Mongoose (tek^tonik Remix)
