This flyer (click link), clearly a high end design by some sort of graphic art veteran, was imagined, created, and manufactured at the Kinko’s off of Sunset Blvd in Hollywood. At best recollection, this was the combination of Microsoft Word (back of flyer) and finding a Christmas card for sale at Kinko’s, with an alien head sticker cut to form and placed over Santa’s face. Yes, by hand analogue freestyle. I still have the original. hahahah

can’t take credit for the post, all jason from simfonik! actually i found this tape, my ex girl kept listening to it over and over the past year, finally figured it must be okay… so i figured simfonik was the perfect outlet for it. i also wanted to give it to jason from simfonik as a gift in for all he has done for all of us with this website. getting cassettes onto digi-files is a lot of work, thanks J! anyway, glad u enjoy the tunes… kind of sounds like a “greatest hits of 95-96″ set to me, heaven!

@DJ Kram

Sorry, no I’m not Mark from the Good Vibe Crew. I’m just a huge DJ Trance fan from way back =)

I miss hearing this stuff on a gigantic wall of speakers like we all used to. Since all this stuff is digitized now, it would be awesome if the DJs these days would just take a short break once in a while and play one of these classic sets for us all to hear again.

Thanks Mr. Blakemore and Mr. Simfonik!!!

Hey Trance, do you have a copy of your set from global gathering or care a lot from 96 ? The global tape was my favorite, you started with tilly lilly – roller coaster and then went into The Hypnotist -death by dub, and then mixed in and out of current releases and earlier 90′s tracks. Hey Shane you still have copies of those tapes fool ???

At the time he had a certain price that I could not match. Times were slow. I would not make a promise that I could not deliver on. Jason has always rocked it. He did play a couple of years ago on NYE at the Nob Hill. It was a awesome set.

Man, I forgot all about this… I used to rock the shit out of these tapes, he was the man, these were the parties…..
and holy crap…
Jhymm – Thank you so much for doing your parties, they were the best, and one of the reasons I kept on going out, promoting, and doing our own parties.
I feel pretty nostalgic and old now, but man, I don’t know what I would have done without all the music, memories, and good times I had from 92 on….
Thanks you to Jason (Dj Trance), Jhymm, and all the other people that made these parties so memorable.

Barry Weaver – Untitled (1991)

about 1 month ago - 17 comments

This is an untitled mix that was contributed by Josh McClintock. We believe it’s a 1991 mix by Barry Weaver, though we’re not 100% sure. It certainly has all of the characteristics of a Barry Weaver mix though — the dreamy intro, the train in the middle, lots of breakbeat, tight tight mixes, and an…
