Story time! This is one of the defining, taste-making moments in my life. I've always enjoyed electronic music, thanks to my parents playing Kraftwerk and Orbital. But it wasn't until later that I actually started seeking it out on my own.
I first heard this segment (plus the following track in the mix) on Jason Bentley's weekend late-night radio show (After Hours) on the local rock station KROQ. I quickly popped a blank cassette tape into the stereo and began recording. I listened to that tape many times (which also had other recordings from After Hours), and when I finally picked up Around the World (the CD this mix segment is from), I couldn't stop listening to that.
These days I'm not into trance as much as I used to be, but I will still listen to Around the World to this day (despite it being a decade old), and Christopher Lawrence is one of my favorite DJs.
Tracks: Jet Black (Arksun Remix), Jet Black (Steve Porter Remix)
Artist: Luigi
Album: Around the World (mixed by Christopher Lawrence)
I was given this CD by a friend and I wanted to hear what it was like before I opened the CD.... Don't think I'll be adding this to my music collection.
