Hello guys, just finally got an opportunity to upload my opening Uplifting Trance set for BILLY GILLIES from a couple weekends ago at Ora Nightclub, Seattle. It was a super fun set to play, and, especially if you’re into the euphoric 138 BPM type Trance, I hope you enjoy the set!! 🦄🦄☀️

On Saturday, November 18th, I was honored to be the primary support for rising Irish Trance DJ/Producer star, BILLY GILLIES, at Ora Nightclub in Seattle. It seems I have been on a roll opening for Upl

Super STOKED to be opening for rising Trance superstar, visiting us from all the way from Northern Ireland after just playing at Dreamstate, BILLY GILLIES, at Ora, Seattle, this Saturday!!!! I’ll be warming up the decks beforehand, along with my good buddy and local Seattle DJ legend, Kazan. Don’t miss this show if you love Uplifting Trance & Techno, and aren’t afraid of 138, ’cause we are going to BRING IT!!! 🔥🦄🦄

Hello everyone, just a quick heads-up that I just uploaded my opening set from the GANESH show at Ora back in early October. Such a fun show to play, and nothing better to pump a little positive energy into the Monday Blues than with some good ol’ 138 BPM Uplifting Trance!! Hope you enjoy. 😅🦄☀️

Hey guys, sorry for the long delay, but just uploaded my set from back on October 6th, opening for GANESH, a Trance and Techno OG West Coast DJ/Producer and very early adopter to the LA Trance Rave sc

Finally got my new Pioneer DJM A-9 hooked up today, feeling slightly embarrassed that it’s been sitting in its box for the past 2 months, but I’ve been so busy at work etc. 😵‍💫 Today I finally put an end to the procrastination, and man, this thing is solid!! Excited to start mixing on it. 🦄

Hey guys, just letting you know that my opening set from the GANESH show at Ora a few weeks ago has been recorded and should be up on Soundcloud sometime soon. 🔜 I was able to squeeze 13 banger Big Room Techno and Uplifting Trance tracks into this one, from the likes of George Acosta, John Askew, Victor Ruiz, Stoneface & Terminal, BT, DT8 Project, Allen Watts, and more, so it’s quite energetic to say the least haha. 😅🙏🦄🚀

Hey guys, just returned home from my vacation to Japan 🇯🇵, had an awesome time, but unfortunately came back with some sort of nasty cold. Anyway, I was hoping to get this recorded before I left, but just had a recording session this morning and I think this is a keeper. I've been working on this one for a while, a collection of some truly beautiful Prog House and Prog Trance tracks that put me in a Fall 🍂🍁 mood. Hope to have it up on Soundcloud sometime soon, but the streaming art is done. That's from a photo I took in Osaka, BTW.. 😅🦄🤧

Awesome time opening for OG LA Techno/Trance producer and rave/festival veteran, GANESH, last night!! Got to spin some 138 BPM Trance bangers, which is a rare treat. 🤩 My set should be up on Soundcloud sometime soon. Thank you again to InMotion Seattle and Ora Nightclub for having me out to play!!🦄🦄🦄

Oh my gosh, what a night, What a NIGHT!! That was such a blast opening at Vivid Presents A Vue Takeover feat Laura Van Dam with DEPTH & Friends. On top of everything else, it was Laura’s birthday too, so it was a party.🎂 That was my very first time playing at Vue Lounge, and the club was packed, even when I showed up at 9:30pm, and by the time I went on there was such a magical Trance Fam vibe going on, so many smiling faces and people dancing, arms in the air. They had the DJ booth kind of right there on the dance floor, so you were right there with the people, which was an interesting and invigorating experience to be out in the open like that. Vue had three stages going on, what a neat venue with a totally different vibe at each room, but amazing DJ’s at each with different varieties of hard techno and electro house. Laura was super humble and sweet and it was such an honor to meet her and hand the decks off to this rising Anjuna/ASOT artist ⭐️, and her set was totally fun to dance to. Such a cool night, thank you so much to Vivid for having me out to spin some Trance!!! 🙏🙏🙏 My set should be up on Soundcloud sometime soon. 🦄🤩

Wow hey guys wanted to give a quick shout out to my new friends, J.P. and Brandy, a couple of people I met through posting my DJ mixes up on Soundcloud. This was a really neat and humbling experience for me, as you come to “get to know” your listeners over the years just by comments in the mixes etc, but so rarely get to meet any of these people in-person. These guys were in Seattle for a few days visiting from FL and had reached out to see if we could meet up to say hi, so today we met for lunch and I took them for a little tour around the Amazon campus. So much fun!! A true example of how music brings people together from around the globe. 🌎🥰🦄☀️

Hey guys, just a quick announcement that I just found out today that I'll be opening for an Anjuna artist at Vue Lounge in Seattle a little later this month!! Pretty excited about it, as I've never played at this venue before, so it should be a lot of fun!! I'll have the official FB event posted here soon, just waiting for them to add my name to the listing. Stay tuned!! 🦄🤩

Hey guys, hope hope you’re having a great week, and to help prepare you for the weekend I just uploaded “Part 2” of the B2B opening sets from a few weekends ago at Ora, Seattle, opening for a genuine Trance legend, UK 🇬🇧 Trance pioneer, JOHN ASKEW. This B2B was with my dear, long-time DJ buddy, Zoran a.k.a. ZOXY, so you know we ratcheted it up to 138 with some Trance bangers, classics, exclusive remixes and more. Hope you enjoy!! ☀️🦄🦄😎

This is part 2 B2B opening set from Friday, July 7th, where I was incredibly honored to be on the opening roster for a UK Trance Legend, JOHN ASKEW, at Ora Seattle!!! Once again, I was able to join my

Hello guys, well I’m happy to say I finally had
yesterday to go back and record my 2nd B2B set from a few weekends ago at Ora for the JOHN ASKEW show, this time with my Trance brother from PDX, ZOXY, and man, what a set it was!!! Sometimes when I do B2B sets I am super focused on setting up my next track after my B2B partner so don’t really get to enjoy the set and listen to it while it’s playing, and I had forgotten how amazingly well this set fell together with so many bangers and also some exclusive, unreleased remixes and mashups. Hoping to have this up on Soundcloud soon, but meanwhile here’s the cover art for it. 🦄🙏☀️

Hey guys, just uploaded Part #1 B2B opening set for the recent JOHN ASKEW show at Ora Seattle, from back on Fri, July 7th. It was an awesome night, plus my first opportunity to do a B2B set with Eric Weber, a.k.a. WEB, and it was such a blast. Next up I’ll have my B2B with Zoxy uploaded, Part #2 of the same night, hopefully should be up there within a week or so. Cheers and hope you enjoy the music!! 🦄🦄

On Friday, July 7th, I was beyond honored to be on the opening roster for a UK Trance pioneer who’s been making a waves in the club industry since the early 90’s underground rave scene in England, and

17/07/2023

Hello guys, just a quick heads up that the first of two B2B sets I did opening for the JOHN ASKEW show two Fridays ago at ORA, which was such a fun show, has been recorded and I’ve just created the cover art for it!!!! Unfortunately we had a DJ not feeling well that night so Eric and I filled in last-minute and B2B’d a super fun progressive set for the first hour, and then I did the originally planned B2B w/ ZOXY for the second hour, before handing off to UK Trance legend, John Askew, which was totally awesome. Anyway, rather than posting as one long 2-hour set, I am breaking it up into part 1 (WEB & me) and part 2 (ZOXY & me). Hoping to have the first one up on Soundcloud sometime soon!!! 🔜 😎🦄🦄🦄

What a night, wow.. two hours straight behind the decks, for two, 1-hour B2B sets, both with awesome DJ’s with distinctly different styles, and also each dear buddies of mine, Eric Weber and Zoxy. And.. what an HONOR to be able to hand the decks off to such a true pioneer, legend, and decades-long contributor to this global Trance scene, JOHN ASKEW. Holy cow, that’s a bucket list item checked off for sure. 😲 And the crowd at Ora Seattle last night was truly amazing and SO much fun to play to. I also got to bring along my wife’s niece, Karen, who’s visiting us from Japan 🇯🇵 so that was a really fun experience for her too. Anyway, my ears are still ringing, but I’ll be getting this entire set up on Soundcloud ASAP. But for now, Portland-bound for a couple fun days with the McCarthy family!! ☀️🙏🦄

Hey guys, Happy July!! Can’t believe it’s already practically mid-summer already.. Well, as sure as the world keeps turning, I keep acquiring more and more music and messing around with it on the deck

Hello guys, hoping everyone had a fantastic weekend, and (for my friends in the US) some fun plans for the 4th of July Holiday tomorrow!! I just rerecorded my mix from yesterday with a few changes after having listened to it, and I think this is a keeper. Just went out into my front yard and took this photo for the cover art haha, literally 10 minutes ago. That's how beautiful the weather is in Seattle right now, pretty amazing. Anyway, hoping to have this mix uploaded to Soundcloud sometime this week. 🦄☀️🇺🇸
