Summit Sessions 100: Part 4 - Everest Edition

It's time for the grand finale.

This isn't just the last segment for Summit Sessions 100, but it's going to be the last episode of the radio show for a while. I'm putting the show on hiatus for a month or two, but don't worry, I'll be back. I can't think of a better episode to end on.

Tying off Summit Sessions 100 is one of my ultimate "Everest" mixes, covering the gamut of high-BPM trance, ranging from progressive psy trance to some brutal tech trance and everything in between.

I can't thank you enough for getting me this far, and I'm looking forward to seeing you again soon.

Summit Sessions 100: Part 3 - Mike Squillo Guestmix

Part 3 of Summit Sessions 100 wants to know if you're afraid of 138.

Continuing the progression from last week's wonderful mix from Monoverse, Mike Squillo has given us a tremendous hour of fast-paced trance. It's not all uplifting, mind you - there's some fantastic progressive psy trance in here too, and the handpicked tracklist contains some very unique and standout music.

As usual, if you enjoy this, go give him a follow online!

Summit Sessions 100: Part 2 - Monoverse Guestmix

Part 2 of Summit Sessions 100 is a melodic rollercoaster.

Monoverse really knocked it out of the park with his guestmix. Picking up where Blugazer's mix left off, part 2 is a beautifully-flowing journey through progressive trance, and features a total of FIVE exclusive, yet-to-be-released, yet-to-be-announced tracks. This mix really does demonstrate why Monoverse is one of the fastest-rising stars in the scene today.

Same as last week, if you enjoy it, give him a like/follow online.

Summit Sessions 100: Part 1 - Blugazer Guestmix

Summit Sessions 100 has finally arrived!

To celebrate this momentous (to me) occasion, I'm celebrating by doing four weeks of mixes, three of which are guestmixes from some great DJs and producers. To start us off is one from Blugazer, who is one of the trance & progressive scene's most consistently-amazing producers. All of his music has a unique style that sets him apart from everyone else, and this mix is a great example of that.

If you enjoy this great intro mix to #100 (which I'm sure you will), then find him on Facebook and Soundcloud and give him a like/follow. You won't regret it.

For now, sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride.

Summit Sessions #99

We're almost to #100!

This one's coming pretty late - I've been bad about uploading this weekly lately (having a full-time job can do that occasionally), but we're almost to #100. I've got something pretty big planned that you won't want to miss. For now, let's just say that part 1 of episode 100 will be coming on the 20th of August.

As for episode 99, this one is more of what you've probably come to expect by now - lots of darker-sounding progressive, techno, and trance music. Enjoy!

The heat here has been getting intense the last few weeks. How about we have an episode that reflects that?

As usual, there's some great progressive tracks here, and a steady build-up until the end. Enjoy!

Summit Sessions #96

This week, we're breaking all the rules.

As the first week of July, this episode should be an Everest edition, correct? Well, it's not. I felt like doing a progressive mix instead. It's a bit slower-paced than usual - it's only 10 tracks instead of the usual 11 or 12 - but I think it's super smooth and flows really well.

Summit Sessions #95

Up now is an intense one hour journey.

All the tunes in this episode of Summit Sessions are dark and full of tension, even more so than normal. It goes deep too, with some great techno from Fehrplay, Max Graham & Tim Penner, and Rick Pier O'Neil.

(00:00) Ryan Z - Cortana [Nuevadark]
(04:15) Jiminy Hop - Lunatek (Marboc 'Moon' Mix) [Electronic Tree]

Wrong. This one is dark and mean and fun.

Summit Sessions #93 - Everest Edition

It's the first week of June, the sun is out, the weather is warm, and there's a huge episode of Summit Sessions waiting for you.

Summit Sessions #92

This episode, we're going back to my progressive roots.

For once, there's no techno or tech trance thrown in. It's all progressive house, progressive trance, and maybe even an uplifting trance track or two. It's a mix that will suck you right in.

Summit Sessions #91

Weather in Colorado is weird.

It dumped snow here a few days ago. Of course, since it's late May, all that snow instantly turned to slush, making everything a soggy, muddy mess.

This has absolutely no relevance to this episode of Summit Sessions; I just wanted to share it.

SS91 is a more melodic mix than usual. Enjoy!

Summit Sessions #89 - Everest Edition

It's the first Sunday of May, so you know what that means: an Everest episode.

This one explores a very wide range of high-BPM trance, all the way from progressive psy trance to melodic uplifting trance to raw tech trance. It's definitely not as heavy as most of the "Everest" episodes thus far, but it should still be a lot of fun.

Summit Sessions #88

Remember how the last two episodes of Summit Sessions were melodic and nice? This one isn't.

We're back to our good old dark themes with this episode. I think you'll be more than satisfied here. This is a good one, folks.

(00:00) Voxy P - Aural Anagram (March 13 & Hexlogic Remix) [Macarize]

(54:12) Eco & Driftmoon - Trust In The Wind [Pure Trance]

Summit Sessions #86

After last week's dark and hard mix, this one is rather more melodic.

It should be a nice break from the dark stuff, at least until next week rolls around.

(51:39) Simon Patterson ft. Matt Adey - Time Stood Still [Armind]

Summit Sessions #85

I'd normally say that with the onset of spring, it's time for happy, feel-good music.

This episode does not have any happy, feel-good music in it. Fun music, however? Yes.

(00:00) Estiva - Stiekem [Statement!]
(06:02) Alex Di Stefano - I've Got The Power [Outburst]

(56:03) Armin van Buuren - Ping Pong (Simon Patterson Remix) [Armind]

Summit Sessions #84 - Everest Edition

It's time for another Everest episode. I do hope you have your seatbelts fastened.

I decided to try something a little different for this one. Instead of starting out at both a high energy level and high BPM, this episode starts at just a high BPM but lower energy, with a progressive build until the predictably-crazy ending. It's something I've never really done before - frankly, until recently, I just didn't have the right content in my music library to try live DJing such a thing.

Regardless, I hope you enjoy!

(52:38) Project 8 - Injector [Outburst]

Summit Sessions #83

This week, we're going deep.

Truthfully, this is almost a "Frontiers"-like episode, except it's much more focused on techno than melodic progressive house. In fact, one could make an argument that nine out of the 12 tracks in this week's show are techno. The BPM doesn't even go above 128 until the last song (when it hits 130).

What I'm trying to say is that you should be ready to get lost.

(00:00) Catskill - Barenziah [Dear Deer]

(55:00) Tempo Giusto - Blast Radius (M.I.K.E. Push Remix) [Echelon]

Summit Sessions #82

We're back...again!

This week's episode of Summit Sessions is particularly deep and dark - in fact, the first half is almost entirely techno. Need to go for a drive at night? This is the mix for you. There's a few tracks in here that I haven't played before, so I hope you enjoy.

(00:00) Estiva - Tarmac [Statement!]
(06:11) Elfsong - Tesseract (Jeremy Rowlett Remix) [Saturate]

Summit Sessions #81 - Everest Edition

Are you ready for an Everest Edition episode?

To make up for missing one last month thanks to my equipment issues, this one is extra good - though I might be biased. Regardless, it features a great assortment of psy trance and tech trance work that should leave your heart pumping.

Summit Sessions #80

The latest episode of Summit Sessions has arrived.

As usual, there's a good mix of progressive trance, tech trance, and even a little bit of psy trance here. This particular episode is very dark indeed, but there are brief glimpses of light here and there. Enjoy them while they last.

Summit Sessions #79

We're back!

I managed to wrangle my equipment into working enough to record this episode. To make up for not having one the past couple weeks, this one is extra-good, featuring both old favorites and future classics alike.

Summit Sessions #78

Instead of contrived metaphors, just use this episode to just forget about the world for a week or so.

Seriously, it's pretty messed up out there, and it seems inappropriate to talk about that sort of stuff right now. If you need an escape of sorts, then listen to this for an hour.

Summit Sessions #77

Do you like pretty music? Then the first half of this episode is for you.

The second half, not so much.

Anyone who knows me well knows that I like contrast when it comes to art. Whether it's a raw bassline underpinning something melodic, or something small next to something large, contrast - at the risk of becoming philosophical - is what allows us to know the true nature of something.

In this case, that's trance.

Summit Sessions #76

The world is a pretty amazing place.

I was reminiscing last night about the road trip I made to the Canadian arctic last summer. There is nothing in my life thus far which compares to the sheer amount of awe I felt on my journey for this planet on which we live. I spoke last week about the raw brutality hidden behind the beauty, and I think that plays a big part in the wonder of it all - some of the most amazing places I saw were also some of the most inhospitable places on the planet. Like last week, I think this episode serves as an appropriate metaphor.

Summit Sessions #75

Snowcapped mountains are beautiful.

I know that's a pretty common opinion to hold, but  I feel compelled to say it right now. A winter storm blew through Denver earlier this week, and has left the nearby Rocky Mountains covered in white powder. However, their beauty hides the sheer brutality of Mother Nature; I certainly would not want to be face-to-face with her with no protection.

What an applicable metaphor for this episode of Summit Sessions.

Summit Sessions #74 - Everest Edition

It's the new year, and we're starting 2017 off right with an Everest episode.

Yep, that means one hour of raw tech and psy trance so you can hit the ground running and leave 2016 in the dust. Just be careful not to listen to this while driving or you might find yourself well above the speed limit.
