      Can we do something about the intermittent ads? Progressive is specifically mixed to create a cohesive journey, and ads before or during every transition completely defeats the purpose :(

    Strange that no one responded to John Rakowski's chat remark, bitching about DJ Mag "allowing" an actor to feature on TH-cam. Kristian Nairn was already a busy and respected Trance DJ with a residency in Northern Ireland for years before a friend in Belfast happened to mention that the makers of a completely unknown TV series were looking for a giant man to play a giant character who had only one line to say. Not being an actor, Kristian turned up out of curiosity; and the rest - as they say - is television history. But I've learned from personal experience - after 30+ years of DJing - that people without a regular paying gig are always the first to criticise how a professional gets the job done. Nairn knows exactly how to blow up a dance floor, and I don't care how he does it!

    @MrGavj 5 ปีที่แล้ว +160

    This set is only gonna get slagged off by those who just want to see nice looking women shaking their chests and then crashing through the transitions with tone matched tunes that make the set sound totally the same for an hour.
    Kristian, IMHO, bring some of the late-90s Trance DJ vibes to the new era. He is zoned into the tunes, really understanding what "trance" is all about. We don't have much female vocal EDM type stuff. We have deep and intelligent, almost progressive Trance, which as an old Trance head is awesome to hear. This set takes you somewhere in your head. We get nice long transitions to keep us in the groove until we realise that there has actually been a transition. Again IMHO, exactly what a DJ should do.
    We also don't get ridiculous "flair", endlessly twitching at the controls pretending he is busy and doing something for the camera. He is letting the music do the work and he is eyes closed enjoying it as we should be. DJing is not a show where everyone just watches. DJing is about bringing clubbers, ravers, crasher/shiny/whatever kids together to pay homage to the repetitive beat.

      Everyone does that, "flair"... It really annoys me. Do they think people are stupid? Touching the eq controls endlessly. This man is giving a master class in pure music mixing, I've never seen a more connected dj than him. He is completely lost in the music. If your watching this and are new to this style of music, this is how it should be done. I know who is, I know what he was in, I am a fan of that show. But being from Northern Ireland myself, and after hearing him compose such an awe inspiring mix of beautiful music. I am now a fan of dj Kristian nairn.
      I used to dj myself many many years ago, as I watch this, all I can think about is playing the decks right now. Damn why did I sell them. 😭😭😭😭👍👍

I am the groove in the darkness. I am the watcher over the floor.

I pledge my life and honor to the groove, for this set and all the sets to come.

    I'm not big on trance, but I like to observe DJs who spin electronic music to learn a few things about transitioning smoothly and using effects subtly to enhance things without them being overbearing. His technique is so smooth it's like he's conducting an electronic orchestra behind those decks.

    • @lupebogi
      @lupebogi 5 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Very well-put. I was always skeptical about Djs who constantly touch the knobs during sets and in my opinion, most of them, are doing this just in order to look like they are doing too big of a deal, when in reality, they aren't. Some people say they are making minor tweaks but let's not kid ourselves here. It's just a "cool" thing to do. To impress people who aren't really there for the music in the first place.
