Here's a very brief clip from the Aly & Fila/John O'Callaghan show I went to at the Exchange LA Friday night. It was fun and my group had a great time.

As explained in the youtube description, I didn't record for much longer because I assumed the sound quality would be awful. It's actually pretty good for a cell phone video though.

duuuude Jorn Van Deynhoven is going to be at Belasco

[helloresolven]

So, any recommendations from Afterhour's EOYC sets?

Favorite from ones I've listened to...

#42 Bryan Kearney
#43 Aly & Fila
#63 Giuseppe Ottaviani
#69 Tero A
#135 Angel Ace
#141 Matt Bukovski
#204 Leon Bolier
#223 Akira Kayosa
#225 Solarstone
#243 Nifra

With Kearney, Bukovski, and Solarstone being top three probably.

But still so many to get around to listening to.

I was just introduced to this gem:

Röyksopp - Running To The Sea

 

[fredrancour]

I'm slowly being dragged into the world of edm by a group of friends I've had for many years. They took me to see gareth emery and to a rave on new years eve. at this rate i'll probably be bullying college friends to go to edm shows with me when i go back to school.

 

[Ashhong]

EDM shows are fucking amazing. Better than any "party" genre shows, easy. So much love for the music and each other, corny as that sounds. It's slowly being taken over by the douches from the mainstream though..

In what way? I was at the exchange LA (it's a club, so might be different from what you're thinking) last week to see Aly & Fila and there were a lot of drunken people stumbling around. In the bathroom a lot of guys were obnoxious, asking for coke, yelling, etc. Is that what you're referring to? I haven't been to many EDM shows so I can't compare it to much, but it wasn't really like that at the Palladium when I saw Armin.

 

[dehydratedbabies]

So ASOT 600 in New York will be at Madison Square Garden. I'm thinking fuck that.

Nope, by EDM shows I'm referring to Palladium, EDC, Circus, Beyond, not Sutra/Avalon etc. It's not so much at massives anymore, but like you said, it was different at Armin. The ones not at clubs are all very much people who are there for the music and everyone is nice to each other, complimenting each other, trading bracelets, and just having a good time.

And fuck yes, Myon & Shane 54 end of the year countdown is out! I had no idea. I wait for this every year.

[Ashhong]

whoa nice! how do you get your tracks on a radio show? Just email them the song and hope they play it?

 

[Tr4nce]

I think the label (Incepto Music) just does their job of promoting their artists very well, because I haven't had any contact with Tom Fall himself

By the way: 'Asgard' will release on January 14th on Incepto Music.

Well then that leads me to my next question, how do you get your music to the labels?

I actually have had contact with Tom Fall, cool dude. Very friendly.

duuuude Jorn Van Deynhoven is going to be at Belasco

http://wantickets.com/events/ShowEvent.aspx?eventId=118530

This guy sounds good. Maybe I'll go see him.

 

[Ashhong]

I don't know about Belasco, but the company putting it on, LMD, used to do shows at Circus and they were great. It's not a normal club show. I hope shows at the Belasco don't turn into Exchange type shows. I'm loving this song of his right now

I meant...how does one get exposure and get their song to labels in the beginning? My friend makes some songs I would like to try to get out there

 

[Tr4nce]

When you think it's good enough just contact labels through their email, or soundcloud. And hope they like it and respond! It can take weeks though before they respond

 

[hydragonwarrior]

Need some advice on a good set of computer speakers for my laptop. Any suggestions? And a huge fan of trance which is why I came here

 

[params7]

I'm hooked on this tune so much I can't stop listening:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eg5D-M7Ob8E

Chilled vocals, energetic melody and beats.

 

[vDaedalus]

I'd like some "energetic" trance, so to speak, with little to no vocals. What would you guys suggest?

Maybe stuff like W&W? Not sure what type of "energetic" you're looking for.

Something like this?

Consider the stuff HHH(Ryu* & Dai) compose.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gvARFJPd9GA

Classified as 'Handz Up' genre, whatever the heck that means.


You can find lots of high energy trance in Beatmania's OSTs.

I always called this kind of stuff just "techno" back in the day, or "happy hardcore". Initial D OSTs would also be good if this is the kind of music he's looking for.

 

[jambo]

Maybe he's looking for some real trance?

https://soundcloud.com/indecentnoise/indecent-noise-live-get-out-nye

 

[Ashhong]

The Gaia song I posted is as trancy as the songs in that mix

 

[Tr4nce]

Or stuff like:

Second Sun - Empire

Menno de Jong - Spirit (Paul Miller remix)

Rapid Eye - Circa Forever (R.A.P.I.D remix)

?

 

[jambo]

Maybe grab some classic sets from early noughties

Armin van Buuren - Live @ Club Eau in The Hague, The Netherlands (2000-09-30)

Armin van Buuren - Live @ Club Eau in The Hague, The Netherlands (2002-10-26)

Armin van Buuren - Live @ Dekel Beach in Eliat, Isreal (2003-04-10)

Armin van Buuren - Live @ Sublime at Home Night Club in Sydney, Australia (2004-01-23)

Or this awesome recent set

David Laurence pres. Where is the classic trance (138-143 bpm) 5 hour CLASSIC SET

[vDaedalus]

Ah, thanks for the suggestions guys! It may not be a proper point of reference, but I really love this mix.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pg0Je4pLaCM

Hence the "energetic" description. I guess I just want something that is constantly evolving. I'll look through your suggestions shortly.

 

[Tr4nce]

I don't wanna spam myself or anything, but today I can celebrate my first release!

http://www.beatport.com/track/asgard-original-mix/4046784

Tomorrow another track is coming, but this time on Round Triangle.

And @ Daedalus: check out some old sets man, I think you really like it. Paul van dyk live @ Cream Amnesia Ibiza 2002 for example.

Congrats, I still have a copy of the track you did with Galen Behr sitting around on my HD

I'm on the pre-sale list for ASOT 600. I'm definitely interested in going (even if I'm not huge into AVB anymore, his show in 2006 at the Tobacco Warehouse was one of the best EDM shows I've ever been to and I'm hoping he can recapture some of that magic), even though I feel as an Islander fan stepping inside MSG will cause me to be smited or something

 

[Tr4nce]

Wow that is great too man!

You're talking about nebula. Oh my god. Haha. Such a shame it never got released. Nice guy Galen Behr. Great fellow.

I'm sure oldschool mixes will work, but if you want something current, I think ASOT shows sound very similar to this. It may not all sound like this, but there are definitely songs that sound like these in it.

And congrats tr4nce!

 

[AlphaSnake]

GAF I need more suggestions similar to ZEDD, Dada Life, and Nicky Romero. I have all of Axtone Presents: Thomas Gold, as well.

 

[Ashhong]

Hardwell comes to mind. Porter Robinson as well.

ASOT 600 NYC lineup:

Love that Ferry and Markus will be there, don't like W&W at all though.

 

[Ashhong]

I can't see the lineup. I didn't like W&W either until I went to Armin's show and he played a bunch of their songs. It's great live and in a crowd, really gets the energy going.

I'm pretty fucking pissed that there's no ASOT 600 in LA. He better do Armin Only later this year. He promised to have that in LA.

 

[neos]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iKimtq9ITjQ

 

[jambo]

I've seen W&W a few times and they have really good energy in their sets.

Best time was a tiny gig in the upstairs room of a night club. Probably 50 or so people, but they loved it, played a great set and had a nice chat with everyone afterwards.

Had a few great gigs at that spot, hanging out with DJs like Sied van Riel, Solarstone, Jochen Miller, J00F and others.

The weirdest one was definitely Solarstone, because he played to about 25 people. I was like "this is fucking Solarstone, he can pack out British clubs and festivals, and he's playing to two dozen people..."

 

[Amagon]

The venue for #ASOT600NYC is such a joke. Not only were the floor tickets sold out in seconds, but there are seats to purchase on the floor for $144. And seating on the upper level for around $40-$80. Seats! I remember getting ASOT floor tickets @ Roseland Ballroom for $50. Fuck Made Event, fuck MSG and fuck Armin.

 

[dehydratedbabies]

Yeah, I bailed after I learned it'd be all ages. I've been saying "Fuck Made Event" since Electric Zoo this past summer, where after my friend's 3-day wristband was ripped/fell off in the crowd during Above & Beyond on the first night event staff told him to go fuck himself when he attempted to get a replacement. If I go to Electric Zoo this year it'll certainly only be for one day, but I really don't want to support Made Event.

Ticket prices for big events like this are out of control but there more people than ever willing to pay them.

 

[D23]

GAF I need more suggestions similar to ZEDD, Dada Life, and Nicky Romero. I have all of Axtone Presents: Thomas Gold, as well.

Try afrojack, hardwell, dyro,, autoerotique, chuckie, avicii, laidback luke, porter robinson, dannic

there should b an EDM ot.. .or this is it?

There wasn't a chance in hell ASOT 600 was going to be held in NYC and not be held in MSG. It's too big of an event to fit in Roseland, Hammerstein, etc., and there's no larger but comparable venue.

This is mainly the trance thread, or at least that's what I made it for. There is an EDM thread but they only listen to weird music I have never heard of.

Fuck YOU man! I had no idea Made Events was handling it though. That sucks, but at least you get an ASOT. Are the upper level "seats" actually assigned?
