Revokez presents: 20 Years of Noisecontrollers (Tribute Mix) (2026)
Sunday is nearly at its end, and we have to look out for yet another week of hard work. And we all need something to keep us entertained, right? Have I got the right mix to listen to. A mix by Revokez, which isn't rare on its own, as only a few weeks ago, I reviewed another mix, but as I found this one by accident (the one you are about to listen to), it would be a shame to leave it as is, and not acknowledge how awesome this tribute mix is. A tribute to one of the biggest na

RAYDIA (2026)
Sharing is caring. And it is always nice to rear people's comments on our website. We've been doing it for years, and every so often we are contacted via multiple sites, like Soundcloud. And the mix you are about to listen to, was shared with me by the maker, DAEV. He left some nice comments behind, and just wanted me to listen to this mix. Not requiring a review, but that kindness has made me want to review it even more! I do not know anything about DAEV, or what the mix rep

Vinyl Destination, Halloween Special - Mixed By Lewis Mann (2026)
It's that time of the year again, Halloween is getting closer and closer. And I do not understand the fascination around it. Why do people dress up in the scariest pieces of clothing, representing these devilish characters, like Jason, Freddie (or is it Freddy), and other diabolical creatures? Maybe I do not understand it as when I grew up, Halloween was a more American thing, not so much a Dutch thing. And now I'm older (and hopefully wiser), I do not believe in scary things

Collaborate Classics (2026)
Sunday, time to relax. A new week is upon us in just a few hours, and we need to regain our energy levels, to get us through it all. And the one you are about to listen to, is the perfect one. It contains the right amount of records, and is of the right length. Not too long, not too short. And of course, it's full of Trance anthems. I couldn't ask for more. Well, I could, but no one would be honouring my requests. Maybe a few more degrees, a nice cocktail, sun blasting on my

HAPPY HARDCORE - BACK TO THE 90s (2026)
After the previous review, I became more nostalgic, and wanted to hear something from my youth, and obviously I had to jump on YouTube, and within seconds I found a Happy Hardcore mix! It's like the internet knew. I wonder why though, but I should not let my thoughts dwell any further, I should just embrace the mix by DJ Ebi. And of course, within a millisecond did I notice the three devils, which will always remain linked to the glorious Happy Hardcore CDs, released by Arcad

Exhibition Of Modern Trance #14 (2026)
What a wonderful day today is. It is nice and sunny, and it feels nice outside. The weather is making us all feel great, and we need that kind of positivity, before Autumn really kicks in, and darkness surrounds us, temperatures go down, and life in general might look a tad bleaker. For now, nothing's wrong in life, and I'm enjoying this Monday, and I hope you are too. And I've got a mix which suits today extremely well. And there's only a handful of hours left of this Monday

Sunday Trance Mix (2026)
It is Sunday, and yet another week is behind us. A new week is about to start, but not yet. We still get to enjoy the last few hours of freedom. And for today's mix, I found one a few days ago, which I could not review until today, as the title suggests, it's only applicable to mention on a Sunday, as the title does mention this. Or the mix was recorded on a Sunday? That I do not know, but it is the one mix we are to listen to today. I have had this on repeat for a few days n

Revokez presents: RETROSPECTIVE MELANCHOLIA (Hardstyle Classics) (2026)
Another weekend coming to an end, but it's been a great weekend. I had a fantastic day yesterday, and today has been great, as I was accompanied throughout the day with some glorious Hardstyle anthems from back in the day. You know, way back. The best years of Hardstyle. And Revokez, the DJ behind this mix, had a very nice message under this mix, about Defqon 2009, and how all seemed to be perfect. The music, the atmosphere, the people.. all was well, and to relive those mome

Gumbo DJ - Adrenalin Rush Volume 2 (2026)
Monday is about to end, and what a long ass day it has been. Working since 6:15am, and it it still not done. Work never stops, which is a good thing, as it keeps you busy. But sometimes it can be very stressful and arduous, and the only thing that can help me, is a solid mix. And as I'm an 80s kid, the 90s were obviously important to me, and during this decade, I discovered Rave music, and its glorious sound (and scene too). It stuck with me to this day, and hearing those son

Take #21 - Sheen Bright Like A Diamond (In Search Of Prism) (2026)
Rígur Lárus is back! According to Soundcloud, the last mix (''Take #20 - Eternal Habits Of The Spotted Mind'') was released a year ago. And it's been a very long year for those who are a fan of Rígur Lárus. And as you can gather, I am one of those. Not only are his mixes insanely good, he also seems to find those fantastic Tiesto sets, which I truly admire. But it's not about Tiesto, it is all about Rígur Lárus and his latest mix, which has as celebrity Charly Sheen. Or is it

Second mix of the day, and it's one which has been on repeat for days on end. I discovered it by accident, and I've been hooked ever since. Yes, it might look like a mystery mix, as the title doesn't really explain much. Guessing it the date on which this mix was composed. But nothing else can be relayed from the title. It's a mystery, until you actually press play, and in an instant, you are immersed into the world of Jungle, Drum & Bass, and Breakbeat. And that's a wonderfu

House Classic groove (2026)
It is Monday morning, and I'm back! Did you miss me? Probably not, which is a good thing. I didn't miss anyone either, as I was on holiday in Crete. I had to take a few days of holiday, as it's been non stop since the start of the year. And it was an amazing holiday. But holidays end, and it is now back to normality. Technically speaking: I was back last Wednesday, but I just could not be arsed to do any reviews. I just wanted to listen to music, discover new music, and do no

Thumpa - 90s Euro Happy Hardcore Classics Vol 2 (2026)
The weekend has landed, and it's time for some fun! Let's go back to the 90s, and listen to some Happy Hardcore. And obviously, I am on board with this, as I'm a true lover of the Happy sound. I grew up with it, and seeing Thumpa's image, having the legendary devils in them, that just fills my heart with joy. Legendary icons from the Happy scene, especially from Arcade's 'Happy Hardcore' CD collection. Not sure if they ever played football for the England team though? Thumpa

R&S records mix (2026)
It is Wednesday, for all you that don't know. And it's yet another hectic day. I've been up since 4:30am, and have been non-stop working. It's a blessing, don't get me wrong, but I've worked long before the birds started to chirp. And it was still dark when I fired up the laptop. Obviously at that time in the morning, you can't blast 200 BPM music, you need something chill and relaxing, and I had this mix in my list for a few days now, and today's the day I'm listening to it,

The Thundering Hardcore Mix By Dj Ad (2018)
The weekend is about to end, and I hope you had a nice weekend. I certainly did. The standard weekend chores, painting the fence as well, and we went to the cinema to watch the Odyssey. I've been recharging my battery for the upcoming week, which will be yet another busy one. And as I'll be in the office on a Monday, I will be in dire need of something energetic, and a few days ago did I come across a mix by DJ Ad. An oldie, but a solid one. You might enjoy it too, if you giv

Ibiza Anthems 2026 Part 1
What a day it has been! I cannot describe it. I've been working non stop since 6am, and it's now getting to 6pm. I was expecting hectic, but this became hectic on a different level. It made the day go by quicker, but it still left me with a lot of work to do. I've done as much as I physically could, but now it is time to unwind, and relax. And when it comes to music, I've been very chilled today. I had a mix on, with Ibiza anthems. No hard stuff, but very mellow stuff. Maybe

Back to the past 001 (2013)
I love myself a bit of 'back to the past'. It is just the way of living, right? You either love the current, or you stick with what you know, and remain in the past. That's where I remain, and currently live. As much as I do like some of the new stuff coming out, I do prefer the older stuff. That's the kind of music I grew up with, and it makes me extremely happy. And when you think of it, there's still a lot of 'new' music to discover, some of these songs have slipped by you

A Nightmare in Rotterdam, Part 2 in the Mix (2026)
It's only Monday, but it certainly feels like a Thursday or Friday. It's been such a manic and hectic day, I cannot believe the weekend is behind me. A weekend full of Soul, House, and more blissful music, and now I'm sucked back into reality, with a lot of work. Thankfully I'm WFH, so I can listen to whatever I please. And today's mix is certainly one which has full energy from the start. Not one with Soul, Funk or House. But a full on Hardcore mix, with tracks from back in

Disco & House 3hr set | Kirollus live from Lost Village Festival 🪩✨🌲(2025)
The weekend is about to land, and I'm a happy bunny. Why is that? Well, simple reason: tomorrow an event is taking place in Milton Keynes, which is called 'Electric Paradise'. We booked the tickets months ago, and we looked at each stage, who is performing there. There are 6 stages, and obviously the main one has got names all known, but the other areas had a few known, and some we had to look up. One of them was Kirollus. He's playing in the Glitterbox area, and I wanted to

Raw Classics Magenta Set - Defqon 2026
Defqon.1 2026. That was certain (so far) one of the most talked about events in the world. It went global, and not for the right reasons. Well, the reasons were justified, but it was unfortunate that they had to cancel the event . First, they tried to reduce the amount of people coming to the event, and I do believe the first day happened, but the weather was dangerously hot, it would have caused too much additional issues with all the ravers attending, it was best to not wai

Lewis Mann Live @ Peach At The Beach 11.07.2026
Peach At The Beach. I thought I heard it all. I thought it was a euphemism, but it was actually the name of an event, which took place a few weeks ago, in Bournemouth. I wasn't there, obviously, otherwise I would have known that it was the name of an event. But from a quick Google search, it turns out to be a great event. It had a nice line up, and who doesn't love House & Trance? And one of the sets recorded at this event has been published on Soundcloud, so obviously I had

Epic Trance - Vol.4 (VinylOnly) (2026)
It is only Tuesday, but it certainly feels like the weekend is just around the corner. Temperatures are going up and up, and the garden looks like a patch of grass which could have easily been in Greece, Italy, or anywhere else. It is dry, it's hot, and I'm WFH. How pleasant is that? This feels more like being on holiday (besides the WFH obviously). This temperature makes me want to go outside, enjoy the Sun shining on my big head, whilst sipping on a nice cocktail (yes, I am

Oh, what a lovely day. It is Saturday, and the weather is gorgeous. Obviously, as the whole of Europe has been extremely warm throughout the last 2 months. But everything seems to be perfect. Not just the weather. The chores have been done, and now it's time for some PS5 time. Later tonight a wedding party, so all is going to be well. And accompanying me this weekend, is a splendid mix which has been on repeat for days on end, yet Soundcloud does not show it on their 'FANS' s

It is nearly Friday, and you know what that means? Party time! It is yet another full-on weekend with lots of activities, but as close as it is, we still have Friday ahead of us, and we all need something to get us through tomorrow. I might have found something very interesting, something I found by accident, and I can't remember if someone shared it or reposted it. I saw it, jumped on it, and now I'm hooked. And the mix in question contains music that fits my mood extremely
