I've been following this channel on Soundcloud for a while now, and every so often I do listen to the WaveCasting mix series, just to clear my mind, when necessary. So that's what I've done today: I saw one of their mixes online, and gave it a go. I had to, seeing as I had a rubbish day today. I needed something to cheer me up, something a bit calmer and relaxing, compared to the harder stuff I usually listen to.
I've never heard of the artist French Skies before. I quickly went on his page, and found out that he's actually a Frenchman. Well, you never know if someone is from a place, unless you do your research (everyone can adopt a name which doesn't apply to them). But you can read the short biography on Soundcloud, so if you want to know more, head on over there, and go nuts.
I'm more interested in the music, and obviously this mix is fully Trance focussed. But, seeing as I'm dipping in and out of the Trance scene, all these records are unknown to me. Should be a nice surprise.
Here's the tracklist, if you are interested:
Andrw Rayel - 550 Senta (Eximinds Bootleg)
Acues - A Perfect Day (Original Mix)
Maratone & Roxanne Emery - Learn To Fly (Mhammed El Alami Extended Remix)
Amine Maxwell & INDI - Quivira (Original Mix)
Sebastian Pawlica - The Great Pyramids (Original Mix)
Sergey Salekhov - Alena (Original Mix)
Tycoos & Denis Sender - Collabro (Aimoon Remix)
David Forbes & Lostly - In My Mind (Extended Mix)
Will Atkinson - Beans (Extended Mix)
Who Knows? & Mr. Nobody - Balance (Original Mix)
Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike vs Vini Vici - Get In Trouble (So What) (Extended Mix)
Yner - Smart Dust (Original Mix)
Massimo Santucci - Earth & Space (Analogue Dream Remix)
I know only a handful of the artists, but that's not a bad thing. It's always a good thing to learn new things. And today is such a day for me. I've opened up, and a new world emerged. So let's see if French Skies' latest WaveCasting mix is something for me, and maybe you.
Well, I have to say that he won me over with the first record in this mix. What a slammer! I've not heard this one before (like all 13 others in this mix), but what a fantastic record! Seeing as we are all locked inside of our homes and we cannot go out and party throughout the night, I can simply close my eyes, and let this record do the trick for me. Fantastic remix, that's for sure.
And that's my favourite record of this mix. Of course the others are great too (besides 'Get In Trouble', just can't stand Pink! and all these remixes of her tunes). It does keep you going. And the good thing about this mix, is the fact that you can download this for free. And he's got 311 other episodes of his WaveCasting, worth checking out.
A good mix series. If you love Trance, you will certainly like WaveCasting.
