After over a year of doing regular monthly mixes, I've decided to switch things up a bit. Starting from now, my focus trance-wise will be on the faster styles, the uplifting, tech and psy trance I love. Instead of monthly mixes of varying lengths, I'm going to release 1 hour long mixes in this style, under the 'Synthsonic Sessions' banner.

1 hour seems to be the standard for many DJ mixes these days, and is the perfect length to listen to in one sitting, either at home, in the gym, out running, at work, or where ever you enjoy listening to your trance.

This mix was inspired by my trip to ASOT 600 in Den Bosch. After hearing Armin drop both Sunspot and The Legacy, I just had to include them here. Also included is an exclusive, one of my new Mash Ups: Randy Katana vs. David Moleon - Fancy Hybrid.

I hope you enjoy my new, more compact and powerful mixes. Episode 002 will be following very quickly so keep an eye out for it.

As always, please feel free to leave thoughts, feedback and comments. Enjoy!
