In The Mix Volume 2 - Release :: September 14, 2006
In The Mix Volume 2 is a runoff from the hugely popular and downloaded Volume 1.
Now from over a year since it's first volume, the only thing that has changed is the
quality of professionalism and critiquing to every second of this mix. In The Mix
Volume 2 continues to focus on the absolute entire spectrum of Electronic Dance Music
in general. Covering genres of
Trance, Progressive and House to Techno, Tech, HardHouse,
Vocal Trance, Progressive House, HardBeat, Psychedelica, Electro and Dance music.
Encompassing over 30 Tracks compressed into an 80 minute sensational mix that you can
fit right onto a CD, this mix is about energy and variety. The different styles and
characteristics of genres are categorized into sections throughout the entire mix to
give a better sense of flow and longevity. There is absolutely no boundaries as I play
with your emotions from each second of this 80 minute glorifying mix, because if you
don't like the current track playing, you can be sure you'll love the next one coming up.
This series of Volumes are the most challenging mixes to produce. The planning and
pre-planning must be done to a great extent. The energy of each transition is mind-blowing,
and the length of most tracks are quick and short, resulting for a DJ like me to be
prepared, fast, energetic and with consistent inspiration.
The Most important thing to realize about an "In The Mix" volume is to know that, every
second of the mix is critiqued and mixed...literally. There is simply no other way to do it
because of the amount of tracks squeezed into such a short time period.
You'll be hearing
Edits, Re-Edits, Remixes and Mashups to most of the tracks consisting in the 80 minute set,
done by yours truly Dj Devine.
So get ready for a lesson in Electronic Dance music and the variety of what you call Trance.
A must Download in the
mixes section.
Dj Devine Returns! :: August 12, 2006
Back from Mexico, and a little time to rethink about the evolutionary path of it all. And I'm happy to be coming back with the name of Dj Devine

A Brief Intermission :: June 19, 2006
For the past few weeks I have been thinking about alot of things. My life has gone through many changes from personal to pleasure. It seems my mind is always 1 step away from my body. My greatful exsistence is puzzled and confused, and stress and anxiety has kind of gotten the best of me, and the factors that contribute to this are numerous.
I am not complaining, I am not sad, nor raged. I just am. It's hard to describe or play out a list of what exactly is going on, but I know i've been disagnosed with Stress and Anxiety Disorder from the doctors.
I am greatful with many things in my current state of being, family and friends, and importantly the online communities such as Tranceverse has allowed me to extend and play out my intrest in this music and broaden my musical varietys. I truly thank you guys, including the administration and more importantly the fans that download my music and return to give insightful feedback. The people who continue to push me to carry on my musical tastes and reach upon my venture. I thank you guys from the deepest of soul.
From thinking and exaturating, and thinking some more, I have decided to come to this conclusion.
I need a break. I need a break from all this, for a bit. I need to re-organize my thoughts to decided which way I want to proceed with this culture of electronic dance music. As things progressed, with huge renovations of these communites, my promotion as a DJ, and ongoing DJ shows from myself, I have become a little out of pace and confused. I don't recieve the same excitement with this music as I once did on a consistant basis. The same things do not capture my attention as it once did.
I have lost the inspiration as I once had of previous mixes in Trance, let it be creating my own, or listening to others. I soppose this is because I've heard so much in so little time, and that said, I don't let the music sink anymore, moreso, I let it play in the background. I have gotten numerous comments and feedbacks on how my musical style has changed, which I agree to. From the early adventures of pure uplifting Trance to vocal trance, I now am comfrotably rested upon the sounds of Deep Progressive and House music. And although this is not everyones choice of something they would listen too, it is where I have evolved upon right now. I don't know if my previous work was better of where it is now, but I do know one thing, and that, I have lost the inspiration and drive I once had. I blame no one for this but I have come to understand this was inevitable sooner or later.
Right now, I wish to concentrate more on the other things in my life. The family bussiness and help out the place as much as possible. My family, more importantly my little sister, and my school work as well. Some news for everyone, I will be taking a vacation to Mexico (Cancun) next month with a bunch of my friends to relax, this is confirmed, all payed for. In this time period I will continue to think over which direction I want to go towards in terms of Dance music, what I want to do, and how I want to do it. I have many dreams and hopes for myself with this music and I will continue to progress upon those dreams.
As the months went by, I have been thinking that I have many more hopes to accquire other than DJ'ing and music. Everyone does, you'd be a fool not too. Thanks to the words of my parents, aunts and uncles and a good friend, I realise that If i don't start atleast thinking or planning about my possible future early, I woun't achieve them the way I want them. So thus, I would like to give those things more of a focus right now.
As for the music, currently my last production/mix will rest on Subtle Progressions Volume 2. This will be my last production in quite some time now, as I see it. I have come to notice that the music I spin or produce has become so drastic, I do not even do it for myself anymore, moreso, for the people who listen to it or the people who dance to it. I may have a tracklist in mind for a particular night at the club and as the night progresses I come to realise the things the majority of people come to enjoy is different from what I, myself enjoy, so i am mentally forced to switch things up for them and discard my own musical taste. I'm never too fond of this. And again, it's no ones fault, it's simply the way things are.
I will continue to spin/DJ around Calgary from whatever gigs I get, but will for now, no longer produce promotional mixes of any kind.
This music has so much longevity and orginality that it will always be a part of my heart. I am NOT saying I am done with this music, this is far from the truth. All I am saying is that I need a break to recapture what I want to to, and focus my attention on other things in my life. I will be back, no doubt about it, but I am going to take a hiatus from mixing and listening to Trance for a bit. And if anything this will help me recapture the excitement and inspiration I once had for this music.
I thank you all for the wonderful words, countless feedback, and words of wisdom you have given me, you're all very wonderful human beings, who regardless of personal intrests all have one thing in common, and that is, The Love of this Music. I will continue to take part of the online communities and give back as mush as I can. (You cant get rid of me that easy! lol). And hopefully when I decided it is time to return to the scene, i come back with orginality and a drive for you all.
I'll see you guys soon. Feel free to leave a comment below.

Subtle Progressions Volume 2 :: June 10, 2006
Everyone can appreciate a good proggresive anthem from time to time. Progressive is rising very drastically in the EDM scene, from huge
DJ's and producers throwing some of the best tracks we've heard for quite some time now. The deep dark and soulfull melodies is what
proggresive is purely about, and in the moment of this all, I've decided to release the next installment of my Subtle Progessions Volume
2. It's been more than half a year since the previous volume of this amazing series, which I've now thought to resurrect. Progressive is
currently my favorite genre to mix anywhere I am, so get ready for some progg, as Subtle Progressions Vol.2 cranks out some hard
progressive beats and amazing basslines.
Set to release June 20, 2006 exlusivly to djdevine.NET! The Best In Progressive Trance and ElectroHouse! Check back for more details.
