Sied van Riel - Live @ A State Of Trance 600 Minsk - 07.03.2013


It's Sunday, time to relax. And there's only one way to do that. If the temperatures are soaring today (like here, 26 degrees Celsius), most people will sit in their garden, having a BBQ. You need some banging tunes to go along with it, so why not listen to some Trance music? I know for sure that the BBQ session will become a more pleasant one, and it will be an even better one if the set is done by one of the coolest dudes in the Trance scene. Yes, I'm obviously talking about the man who resembles Ross from Friends the most.... Sied van Riel!

I've been checking his FB and Soundcloud a lot, to see if there's new music from the man, but it's been very quiet. I hope he's OK.


A few years ago, when I discovered him, I knew it was going to be special. I purchased all of his albums, and listened to many of his mixes. I am a SvR fan, and so should you be, if you aren't already.


I've never been to a ASOT event, but they always have the finest DJs playing. And this 600th edition seems to had a big line-up too. Come on, every line up with Sied van Riel on it becomes big. So when I spotted this on SvR's Soundcloud channel, I had to give it a go. I was craving for a bit of SvR after playing one of his albums earlier this week, and now I've got the time to sit back, relax, and enjoy his ASOT set from Minsk, back in 2013.

If you are looking for Trance music from a decade ago, you are in luck. As mentioned, this was recorded back in 2013, and it's a damn good set. A lot of bangers (and mash), and it certainly gets you going through the weekend. A nice set to end the weekend with, that's for damn sure.


It's a very good set, with a lot of epic tunes. Sied knows exactly which ones to play, and the crowd interaction is great. You can hear them screaming for more, screaming for mercy at the same time. Especially when Sied's own productions are played. Come on, this man is a living legend, a man who knows exactly how to make Trance sound epic, and for me the moment is shows, is when he plays his own song 'Past, Present, Future'. Typical SvR sounding song, and I fucking love it! Big track.


The quality of the recording ain't great, but that's not a bad thing. At least you can hear what the people at Minsk were experiencing.


An hour and a half flew by, and I really had a blast. BBQ is going to be on in an hour or two, and I will for sure play this. Can't imagine a better set to listen to.
