Well it happened anyway; the Winter 2015 mix is 4 CDs. I'm not sure why I had so much material this quarter but oh well, more music for everyone. I was halfway through a new vocal mix when I realized I needed to start this one in order to get the yearmix done by early January so that's why I had two Seasons in a row. Cheers

October 2, 2015


The Fall mixes are completed thanks to some furious mixing to get these done. It's also 3 CDs since I was concerned the Winter mix would be 4 CDs if I only did my usual 2 CDs. Anyway, enjoy.

September 20, 2015


Things have been pretty crazy recently so Club 13 was delayed quite a bit. Next up will be the fall mix, which I hope to have done by the end of the month. Enjoy

July 21, 2015


Well the Summer 2015 mix is about a month late, but that was due to our move into a new house so things have been pretty crazy recently. Things should die down enough for me to be able to get another mix done before fall but I can't promise anything. Enjoy

May 25, 2015


Chill Megamix Vol. 7 has been completed, and so has a redesign of the website. I grew tired of the green so I asked my sister to come up with a blue design and I think this is much better. Next up will be the summer mixes.

April 27, 2015


Vocal Megamix Vol. 11 has been completed quicker than I thought. I recently tried to only put songs on the vocal mixes that don't appear anywhere else (or, if they do, in a different remix) except for select songs I really like so this mix should mostly be new songs (albeit slightly old at this point haha). Anyway, hope you enjoy it. I might have time for another mix before the summer mixes but I'm about to start a new job so we'll see.

April 8, 2015


Spring 2015 has been done for a few weeks now but I haven't had time to get it uploaded so here it is finally. I'm not sure what will be next; you'll just have to wait and see. Cheers

February 24, 2015


Club Vol. 12 has been finished and uploaded. Next up will be the Spring mix. Enjoy.

January 4, 2015


The 2014 Yearmix has been completed so go download it. No idea what my next mix will be, however. Enjoy :)




Well I ended up with more songs than usual so Winter 2014 is 3 discs long. Next up will be the yearmix, which will hopefully be completed at the beginning of January. Enjoy :)

November 9, 2014


Vocal Megamix Vol. 10 has been done for a while, but I just hadn't found the time to make the cue file and get the cover completed. I'm not sure if I'll have time to get another mix done before the Winter mix since I usually try to get that one done by mid-December.

September 28, 2014


It may not be fall here in Texas, but here is Fall 2014. Next up will probably be a new vocal mix. Cheers

August 17, 2014


I said previously that I was going to start putting more vocal tracks on the Chill mixes, and that's exactly what I've done. Chill Megamix Volume 6 has at least some vocals on half of its songs, which I think gives it much better balance than the previous mixes. Next up will probably be the Fall mix, but after that will be a new Vocal mix. Cheers

July 8, 2014


With the World Cup consuming my life, it was inevitable that the Summer mix would be late haha. Anyway, it's done now so download it and enjoy.

May 22, 2014


Here you go, Club Vol. 11. Next up will probably be the Summer mix. Enjoy :)

May 6, 2014


Vocal Megamix Vol. 9 has been completed. There are quite a few older songs on here (the result of my mixing schedule), but I decided to keep them on because they're good songs and in a few months no one will remember haha. Next up will be a new club mix.

March 23, 2014


Spring 2014 has been finished. I'm hoping to do two mixes before the Summer mix; probably vocal and club. I want to reduce some of the backlog that I've accumulated over the past year or so. We'll see how well that turns out.

March 9, 2014


Now that the Olympics are over, I finally had some time to finish Chill Megamix Vol. 5. It's actually been over a year since my last one so some of the songs on here are kind of old. Oh well. Next up will be the Spring mix.

January 12, 2014


As promised, the 2013 Yearmix has been completed. Now I'll have time to finish up the chill mix I started. Cheers.

December 15, 2013


Winter 2013 has been finished; next up is the yearmix. I will hopefully be able to finish that around the first of the year. I was working on a new Chill mix, but I wasn't able to finish that before I needed to start on this mix. That will be completed after the yearmix.

October 14, 2013


Fall 2013 has been finished, albeit slightly behind schedule. I'm not sure if I'll have time to make another mix before the winter mix in mid-December, but it's always possible. Enjoy :)

September 9, 2013


Vocal Megamix Vol. 8 has finally been finished. Next up will probably be the Fall mix. Cheers

July 17, 2013


A little later than I hoped it would be, Summer 2013 is done. I had started on a new vocal mix, but I realized that I needed to put that on hold and work on this. I hope to have the vocal mix completed soon. Enjoy :)

May 16, 2013


I wasn't able to get this done before leaving on vacation so here is Club Vol. 10, a few weeks later than I'd hoped. I'm not sure what will be next so just stay tuned. Enjoy :)

April 7, 2013


It took longer than I thought, but Spring 2013 is completed. Work and marathon training got in the way or else this would have been completed a few weeks ago. I will be going on holiday for 2 weeks at the end of April so I'll try to get another mix done before then. Cheers :)

January 19, 2013


After four weeks of work, Yearmix 2012 is finally done. 2012 had a lot of fantastic songs and unfortunately not all of them could make it onto this mix. At a few points I had to make some very painful cuts, but ultimately I feel the mix turned out better as a result. Now that this mix is finished, I think I'm going to take a break from mixing for a few weeks because I'm feeling a little burnt out. I'll probably release something in March, but I have no idea what that will be. Thanks for listening :)

December 20, 2012


Trance Styles 2012 (Winter) has been finished. Not too much to say today; next up is the 2012 Yearmix. Cheers

December 9, 2012


At first, I thought I was going to have to make Vocal Megamix Vol. 7 a double CD like the last one, but I ended up cutting about half of the songs that were in my vocal queue out of the mix. That allowed me to keep the mix to just one CD (which I greatly prefer) while still trimming down my remaining queue to an acceptible level. Once the tracklist was set, this mix came together quite easily; I think it's my favorite of the vocal mixes since Vol. 3. Now that this mix is complete I can hopefully get the Winter mixes done within the next two weeks, and then I can get started on the 2012 Yearmix before the year is done.

October 7, 2012


As I had hoped, Fall 2012 has been completed very quickly. This mix went together quite smoothly; definitely much easier than the last mix. Next up will be a new Vocal mix, so look for that one in the next few weeks. Enjoy :)

September 28, 2012


Club Styles Vol. 9 has been completed for over a week now, but the program that I use to make the .cue files decided to suddenly stop working so I had to look for a replacement. Anyway, I think I've figured it out now so here it is. As for the mix itself, I really struggled with this one. At first it was two CDs like Vol. 8, but then I realized I didn't like about half the songs on both mixes so I combined them into one mix. I think it turned out much better this way; I tried to make sure that this mix kept the energy high throughout the mix, and I think I accomplished that. Next up with the Fall mixes (which are already late), but I've got a pretty good start on them so far so hopefully they will be out relatively soon.

July 29, 2012


Forgotten Tracks Vol. 2 was finished a few days ago, but I've just now had a chance to upload it. As with the first one, this mix is full of tracks that, for whatever reason, never found their way onto a mix before. Well, at least not a mix that I've uploaded to this site. One or two tracks were included in mixes I've done previously (such as Trance Styles Vol. 1), but were either featured on other websites or were made for other people. Anyway, enjoy :)

July 5, 2012


Not too much to say about the Summer 2012 mix, just go download it :p I'm going to try and get another mix done before the Olympics start at the end of the month and completely consume my life, but I'm not sure what it will be yet. Anyway, happy listening :)June 2, 2012


I'm not sure what it is about the Chill series but it always seems like the vast majority of the songs I pick are non-vocal. I've been making an effort not to put the same song on two different mixes (I have a large enough queue as it is) so any song that could go on either mix is usually put on a Vocal mix. Chill Megamix Vol. 4 is better than others in that respect, but from now on I'm going to make a better effort to increase the number of vocal tracks on the subsequent Chill mixes. Next up will be the Summer mix, which should be done within a reasonable amount of time (unlike this one). Enjoy

March 11, 2012


Finding time to mix recently has been quite the challenge with work and all, but I've just finished the Spring 2012 mix (a bit ahead of the calendar actually). Just like the last Club mix, this one went through numerous revisions/deletions so it took longer than I anticipated. I'm not sure what will be next; I have enough songs to do several different mixes so I'll have to see what kind of mood I'm in :p

February 12, 2012


Club Vol. 8 has been completed, and it is also a two-disc mix because I had a long queue going, and I didn't want it to get too old and outdated. It took longer than normal because both mixes went through many revisions of removing songs that I wasn't too crazy about, changing song order, etc. I've gotten really busy at work so the next mix will be the Spring mix, and then that will be it until after April.

January 8, 2012


As promised, the Yearmix 2011 has been completed much sooner than in prior years. This should leave me a decent amount of time to do another club mix before my life is completely consumed by work during March and April. Cheers!

December 3, 2011


Winter 2011 has been completed, roughly on schedule. Next up will be the 2011 Yearmix, which I hope to have done by the end of the year. I'm not sure that's realistic, but that's the goal. Enjoy!

October 10, 2011


The Fall 2011 mix has been completed and uploaded. This will be the last mix until the winter mix in December, but I'm planning on completing that by the beginning of the month so I can hopefully get the Yearmix done by the end of the year. Enjoy :)

September 26, 2011


These took a lot longer than I anticipated, but Vocal Megamix Vol. 6 is finally done. As I said before, this is a double CD because I really needed to cut down on how many vocal songs I still need to mix. Now that these are done I'll be able to work on the Fall mixes. I've already started on them so hopefully I'll have them done by next week. Enjoy.

July 28, 2011


The Chill Megamix Vol. 3 is finished and has been uploaded, along with the 2007 Yearmix and 2008 Yearmix. I'm not sure if I'm going to upload the season mixes going all the way back to 2007, so I figured I'd at least upload the yearmixes since those are the most important mixes anyway. I've just started on Vocal Megamix Vol. 6, and depending on how well things go, this may turn into a double CD because even after taking out the 40 or so songs that will go into the mix, I still have almost 100 songs in my vocal queue. Not all of those songs will actually make the cut, but that's still an alarmingly high number of songs to have waiting. I'd like for these mixes to be at least somewhat current with the new releases :p

June 28, 2011


This would have been finished sooner, but an "administrative oversight" on my part meant that Summer 2011 got pushed back by a few days. Unlike previous editions where CD 1 is mostly vocal and CD 2 much less so, I tried to spread out the vocal/non-vocal songs so that both CDs were relatively consistent. I think it worked out well enough that I'll probably do this from now on. Next up will probably be a Chill Megamix followed closely by another Vocal Megamix.

June 17, 2011


Club Styles Vol. 7 is later than I had anticipated, but several personal issues got in the way, so better late than never. If you were to just look at the tracklist you'd think that this mix is much more geared towards house than my mixes usually are, and while that's true to a certain extent, I also cut a bunch of songs down to keep the trance aspects and remove the boring parts :p There are definitely some floor-filling tunes in this one and, in case you're keeping score at home, "On Stage" is probably the best set opener ever. Next up is the Summer mix; I hope to have that one done by next weekend.

April 24, 2011


The 2011 Spring mix has finally been completed and uploaded. Not too much to say here; it's just like the other seasons mixes: full of trance and vocal trance goodness. Not sure what I'll mix next, guess I'll have to wait and see what strikes me. Enjoy :)

April 2, 2011


It took longer than I thought, but here finally is Vocal Megamix Vol. 5. As always, it's a mix of old and new songs mashed together. This one put me a little behind schedule for the Spring mix, but I'll have some time this week to work on it so expect it within the next week or so. Enjoy :)

February 24, 2011


I've had Club Vol. 6 done for a few days now, but I've been travelling and working a lot recently so I haven't had time to upload it until now. This one has more vocal tracks than previous volumes, but it still has the banging beats and bass that all the others have. Now it's time to start on the Vocal Megamix Vol. 5 :)

February 16, 2011


The rest of the Chill mixes have been uploaded. The best one is the Megamix Vol. 1 (with Volume 2 a close second), but they're all great. Next up: Club Styles Vol. 6.

February 3, 2011


A full five months faster than last year, the 2010 Yearmix has been finished. I've been listening to it virtually non-stop for the past week and it is already one of my favorite mixes that I've ever done. In contrast to some of the previous years, this mix is much more orientated toward vocal trance. With the Yearmix done, I'm going to upload the rest of the chill mixes and then make another Club mix, followed by a new Vocal Megamix. I'm way behind with the vocal mixes (I have well over 100 songs in my vocal queue!) but the Club mixes don't take very long so I thought I should do that first. Enjoy :)

January 8, 2011



I lied, the next mix is the Chill Megamix Vol. 2. I've had this mix 99% done for several weeks now so I thought I should finish it up before moving onto the yearmix. I'm really liking these Chill Megamixes; they're awesome to relax to.

January 7, 2011


Trance Classics Megamixes Vol. 1 & 2 have been uploaded. Volume 1 needed a fair amount of work before it could be uploaded so that's the reason for the delay. I think both mixes are good, but Volume 2 is without a doubt the best; in fact, I'd recommend you listen to that one first and then download Volume 1. Next up is the Yearmix 2010.

January 3, 2011


The winter mixes have been completed and uploaded. I had to make 3 CDs this time because I needed to clear out my queue so I can start 2011 fresh. I normally would have had these mixes done earlier but the holiday season this year was more hectic than usual. Now that I'm done with these, I can upload the Trance Classics Megamixes and then I can start the 2010 Yearmix. Hopefully this one won't take as long as the 2009 one did; I started it in January and didn't finish until July :p

December 5, 2010


All of the Club mixes have finally been uploaded. I had to make .cue files and re-encode most of the mixes so that's why it took so long to upload. I forgot how awesome these mixes are; I've been listening to these pretty much non-stop all week at work. There's a lot of diversity in the song selection so there's sure to be something for everyone.

November 17, 2010


The vocal megamixes and the 2009 yearmix have been uploaded. I'm slowly working my way back through several years worth of mixes; next up is the 2010 seasons mixes. They should be uploaded within the next week. D:Styles

October 22, 2010

They say the hardest part is getting started and I am no exception. After months of planning and CPA studying, I've finally found the time to officially launch my website. Here you will find (mostly) trance mixes that I have done over the past five years. I will put more information concerning this in the "About" section, but in general, these mixes have been done primarily for my benefit. I prefer to listen to trance in mixes so that's what I did.

Over the years, I have developed several mix series based on the style/genre of the tracks. The main series are: Seasons, Club, Chill, and Vocal. Again, see the "About" section for more details, but keep in mind that all the series are offshoots from the Seasons series so they will all be somewhat trance related. Thus, it should go without saying that not everyone will like every series.

Lastly, I must mention that all the mixes on my site will always be made available for free and that there should also never be any ads here. Furthermore, it should also be noted that all songs are the property of the respective artists and that all of my mixes are for promotional (i.e., non-commercial) use only.

Enjoy the music :)
