Sied van Riel - Rielism 161 [Producers Set] (2016)


I simply cannot believe that it's been 8 years, and I've been listening to this mix for 8 years, and never done anything with it. And it's 7 years ago since the last Rielism album. Where has the time gone to? And where has Sied van Riel gone to? He's been very quiet for a while now, which is unfortunate. I am a fan of his music and especially his album Rielism Volume Four. Never had the opportunity to hear him play live, but maybe one day, eh? Until then, we've got a lot of his mixes on Soundcloud, if you are interested.

Back in 2016 he did this 2 hour long producer's set. And when I say that this mix makes me moist, that's an understatement. I've been in love with his music for years and even wanted one of his songs to be played at my wedding (but the DJ didn't want to play any of the European music that wasn't suitable for a wedding). His music has meant so much to me, and the production value of each song is tremendously insane.


To me he's one of the finest Trance producers from the Netherlands. Yes, we had Tiesto first and then Armin van Buuren, but they had to move over for the mighty Sied van Riel. God, the quality of each record was insanely good. He knew how to put a lot of love and effort in each Trance anthem, and each touched my soul.


His producer's set only contained records up until 2016, and he's had a few releases since. Not many, as the account has gone eerily quiet. I hope Sied will come back with another smashing anthem.


For now, let's go back to 2016 and experience all the goodness that Sied van Riel had to offer!

At this specific moment, when I'm writing this review, it's hot. It slowly creeping to 30 degrees Celsius, and I've got a feeling that the Gods of good weather are listening, and slowly increasing the temperature due to their love and appreciation for Sied van Riel. I might be wrong, but I might also be right.


I do love this mix. It has been a part of my listening experience on Soundcloud for a good few years. It's in my 'Trance' playlist, for a good reason. You will love his music, and you will admire the legend that is Sied van Riel.


The mix is 2 hours long, and contains 27 of Sied van Riel's records. A journey, that's for sure. And if you weren't a fan already, you will become one. His own productions are insanely good, and also the remixes he did for others are solid. A very interesting mix with so many awesome records. The 2 hours will fly by before you know it, and it will leave you breathless after. And as the urge still remains, you will press play again, as you don't want this to ever end.


'Hear You Calling' is still one of the finest records Sied van Riel has ever made. A slightly underrated record, but one that will certainly touches your soul. And the vocals are stunningly beautiful.


A fantastic mix. 8 years old, but still sounding fresh, as if it was made yesterday. We need more Sied van Riel. More please.


If you want more, there's still a lot of his Rielism shows on Soundcloud, if you want this to never end. Hours and hours of pleasure!
