[FONT=Century Gothic]Recorded in August 1997, just a month before the release of Northern Exposure 2, it’s amazing how fresh this music sounds today – a true mark of the artistry & innovation of a DJ with a great ear for something that will endure.[/FONT]
[FONT=Century Gothic]We are back to a time when the likes of John & Sasha were true pioneers, crossing the Atlantic to define a new progressive sound that would embrace elements of house and trance. More than simply banging out the big tracks, John was playing an eclectic deep sound, full of melody, using vocals to set an ambience & groove, with big beats & soaring synths. The music is really given it’s +space & time to breath.[/FONT]
[FONT=Century Gothic]It wasn’t simply about playing the big tracks of the day, instead the aim was to take you along on a musical journey. Case in point, check out the amazing transition to BT’s ‘Remember’ 10 minutes in. Sure, there were bigger remixes of BT’s seminal classic, including a massive prog trance version produced by co-writer Paul Van Dyk (fresh from his classic Seven Ways LP) - yet John picks the less obvious version.[/FONT]
[FONT=Century Gothic]Back in1997 John’s innate DJ’ing ability, finely tuned ear, vision & sequencing came into play, finely crafting sets that were forward thinking & challenging at the time - producing something that still holds up decades later. So hopefully you will enjoy this wonderful two hours of era defining music & raise a glass to T300.[/FONT]
[FONT=Century Gothic]Transitions is borne out of a pure love for electronic music .... and long may that continue. [/FONT]
