Everyone,
I apologize for being MISSING over the last few weeks. I've had to deal with some unexpected issues here off of the dance floor and away from the club! But, now I think all is under control and I'm Baaaack!
I will be posting a new review later today and then...going to the etd.LOVE show in San Francisco this weekend! YES! you'll get a review of Gabriel & Dresden, John OCallaghan, and Myon and Shane 54 from the show. It's going to be great!
I'll also be back at Ruby Skye on February 10th for Paul van Dyk and again on February 16th for Gareth Emery.
So, stay checked in, 'cuz I'll be coming at you with MORE FUTURE OF TRANCE!
Oh, btw, the boys of Tritonal put on one AWESOME show at Ruby Skye. They tore the walls DOWN! I'm still editing my video from that amazing night. I even got to meet Chad and Dave after the show and got a signed poster. Thanks guys! YOU are simply the BEST!
Thanks for hanging with me,
Larry

Beautifully Wrapped, Tritonal Delivered The Future Of Trance Music Today
Note: This post was written late on Sunday, January 8, U.S. Pacific Time
Earlier today ( 8 Jan 2012) a truly memorable event in our trance world occurred. Anjunabeats Worldwide, already massively popular on internet radio, took a ride to universal levels as Tritonal took command of the two hour set. And what happened in those two hours can only be described as a uniquely epic, even historic experience. From the beginning beat to the very final melodic note, Chad and Dave defined the genre of trance music in today’s terms. Even more so, the set mix of melodic and vocal trance, progressive trance, trance vs. house mashups and just plain drive-it-to-the-core house/dance tracks painted a picture of where trance music is headed. With the foresight and immense talent they displayed in today’s set, it’s hard to believe they are only #83 on the DJ top 100 list. Clearly, they “get it” and understand the very soul of the future of trance itself. Here’s how I know this to be true - With amazing ease, Tritonal delivered a solid two hour set of music that crossed sub-genres and touched the outer boundaries of trance. The brilliant mix of lyrical emotion, musical exhilaration and pure energy came together, flowing out of the speakers and wrapped around me like a welcomed summer breeze. This was clearly in evidence right from the opening track as the debut of the emotionally melodic “Promise You” by Fast Distance and Dimension stacked up seamlessly against Shaun Gregory’s heart-pounding remix of Craig Connelly’s “Manchester AM.” The set also included five amazing mash-ups, not the least of which was an amazing Coldplay vs. Gareth Emery vs. Fedde le Grand triple mashup of “Paradise in Tokyo”. Track after track just worked next to one another and there were even a few other surprises tossed in (which you’ll have to listen out for yourself). It was the kind of set that I wanted to just keep going on and on, not unlike the massive, totally fulfilling hours-long live sets delivered by the likes of Armin van Buuren and Paul van Dyk in their time as visionary re-definers of trance. In today’s realm, my sense is that very few DJ/producers, such as Dash Berlin, DJ Shogun, tiDy and Cosmic Gate, have so far proven that they have the evolutionary vision to push limits and re-define the future of the trance music genre. Today, Tritonal showed the global audience that they have that same vision, insight and courage. As I sat astonished and totally exhausted at the end of the two hours, I realized how abundantly clear today’s performance on Anjunabeats Worldwide was not just a beautiful two-hour set of great music, but a memorable and historic marker for the genre of trance itself. The wonderful reality is this: Today, Tritonal blew open the doors on the future of trance and gave us all the opportunity to see, feel and hear it for ourselves.
F.Y.I: I’ll be witness to the future of trance in person when I see Tritonal live at Ruby Skye in San Francisco this coming Thursday night. Look back here next weekend for my review of what is sure to be an epic show.

Kyau And Albert’s Once In A Life Is Alive With Tritonal’s Remix
Listen to the Tritonal remix of Kyau and Albert’s latest,
Once In A Life (Tritional Remix) and you get the feeling that something big is
about to happen. The good news is that what you are feeling would be correct. The track which is shooting up the charts and getting
top airplay by the likes of Above and Beyond on TATW starts out with a uniquely
curious snapping beat and then quickly ramps into a driving bassline
that will get you and everyone else on the dance floor moving. Your heart beats
faster and faster until swirling melodies morph into vocals fading back and
forth like waves on the beach. But these are not crashing waves, but soothing
waves that beckon you deeper into the sound of trance at its best. Pulsating waves
of energy seductively carry you higher and higher on a ride that leaves you
breathless but oh so alive. This one’s going to generate a lot of life in the
clubs and all you need to do is jump in and go along for the great ride.
