    You don’t have to paste HTML. Just put the URL of the page.

    So this:

    Will end up as this:

    Took a listen, wasn’t into the calmer kinds of trance, but that’s only a question of taste.

    What I did like: The gradual buildup of energy over the course of the whole mix. Good quality to have if you want to be an opening DJ. Also liked the flashback of dropping in Three Drives.

    What I didn’t like: In your efforts to not let things drag out, you did a blend on top of vocals and other important melodies. Sometimes it’s better to play them out, then perhaps cut them shorter in post-production. It’s what I’ll do if I think a part is dragging too long.

    REGARDLESS…you did a nice job. Go make the longer mix you want to.

    I wonder how long it will take before you get into trouble using Armin’s show and radio show name though …

    Agreed. I’d definitely come up with a new name.

    If anything, start a podcast with said name.

    Want me to change the post title for you to “July Trance Mix?”

    By the way, if you plan on posting regular mixes, it often pays to have just one post (with an appropriate title of course) and just keeping adding new links to new mixes to it. This has the following advantages, your original post gets bumped every time you add new content – it’s the only time we allow post bumping on the forum – so even new readers will see your older stuff, it will show how consistent and productive your are – always helpful – and, finally, it makes our moderator work easier 😀

    Thanks Vintage, great advice as always!

    I always have been a big lover of Trance, and as someone from the UK, its sad to see it is not quite like the late 90’s anymore. Its interesting how things have really evolved more on to the EDM side of things from Trance.

    I admittedly have dithered about creating a weekly Trance mix but your advice has certainly helped me create a clearer picture. AVB’s asot for me is one of my greatest sources for music!

    I have had a think about it this morning and as well as weekly postings on Mixcloud, I was thinking I could use the new Chew TV as a platform for any live mixing.

    Is Chew TV straight forward in terms of setting up with an S4 MK2?

    Also, I need to brainstorm ideas for my weekly mix/shows/podcasts later but if anyone has any name suggestions, they would be greatly appreciated as nothing is coming to my head at the moment!

    Thanks again guys greatly appreciate your advice,

    Hi All,

    Thought long and hard over the weekend and decided I will make a go of it and I came up with the idea of posting weekly Trance episodes. Thankfully my job allows me to listen to music at my desk during the day so I am always able to keep up with the latest music/shows to get ideas and most importantly songs from (e.g Spotify/Mixcloud etc)

    I have named the show/weekly podcast as “Berks Trance” – For those interested, the thinking behind the name was the county location I am from (Berkshire) in the UK

    I am by no means near the finished article when it comes to mixing Trance and picking the right songs to build up energy levels etc so any Trance DJs who are able to pass on any advice would be greatly appreciated!

    If anyone would like to listen/see how I have set up things on my Mixcloud page, please follow the below link to episode 2!:

    Hi All,

    https://www.mixcloud.com/widget/iframe/?embed_type=widget_standard&embed_uuid=cb157703-

    Really strange and great feeling putting out the 5th episode, only seems like the other day I was asking for advice on whether to do it or not, but I am really enjoying it

    This mix includes a range of Trance genres once again including a few classics from the early turn of the 21st Century including the Ibiza classic of Push’s Universal and Ralphie B’s Massive. I have also featured a couple of tracks that were in last week’s episode including The Them by MaRLo.

    As always, I appreciate all the feedback and anyone who has taken the time out to listen.

    I also have plans to stream a few episodes live from the new Chew TV so if any of you have any Trance songs you would like to hear across any of my live shows I would love to hear them regardless of their genre and year!

    I hope everyone has been having a good week and thank you for listening!
