A rare trance gem for the city
What a night. John played a flawless set of tough progressive trance, with an enthusiasm and love for the music that I really don't think I've seen in a DJ before. I spent the days leading up to the night listening to past editions of his Global Trance Grooves podcast (itunes.apple.com and was expecting more of the same - which would have been fantastic. In reality, the night even went up a notch from there and was quite stunning. The vibe in the crowd was great, and all seemed genuinely appreciative.

It was a truly enjoyable experience and I'm very glad to have been part of the event, but it did highlight something that has me perplexed. How does Brighton have such limited (non-existent?), regular availability of decent trance? I believe that there is the odd psy trance night on at the Volks, but that's about it, and certainly nothing on the progressive tip from what I can see. A quick look down the DJ Mag top 100 DJs, for instance, shows just how pervasive and popular trance is at present, and I'm sure there is a substantial following in Brighton. An opportunity, surely?

Finally, further props for John. The guy has been a stalwart of electronic dance music since the dawn of time, and has contributed as much if not more so than anyone. He's a charismatic and engaging guy, and last night he absolutely *killed it*. 10/10. Brilliant.

Because clubs want stag and hen do's and trance doesn't attract that sort of people! it's a sad state of affairs but trance is looked down on by a lot of people. If you want decent trance night you have to head to the capital or further north :(
