Well, it has finally come to this. I’ve put the last batch of vinyl records up for sale on eBay. After that, it’s all digital for me. While vinyl still survives for some, it’s a very distant memory for most. Hence this final ode to great trance and progressive that was once the exclusive domain of vinyl. Now, a lot can be both from iTunes or specialized stores like Beatport. And I’ve got a Grooveshark widget to prove it.
For me, the highlight of this list is most certainly BT’s Remember. It shaped trance and even progressive. Ranging from the straight-on Paul Van Dyk dancefloor madness to the afterhours deepness of the Mood II Swing mix. It’s all brilliant. But you don’t have to believe me, you can listen for yourself.
If you don’t know Grooveshark, it’s a great service that lets you manage and stream your playlists. The choice is incredibly wide and deep. You can’t download music, but if you like something, there are links to buy it on one or more sites.
It’s a great service.
A few of the tracks I couldn’t find. For instance, Jam&Spoon’s “Don’t call it love” LP or some of the mixes of Resistance D’s “You were there”. But really, I don’t think any one can offer everything that was ever released.
