In a Trance - DJ Doboy

Originally posted on xanga.

I got into Trance in the late 90s mainly due to "Tranceport" by Oakenfold. I've been a fan since and have seen the genre evolve through the years.

Among my favorite DJs is DJ Doboy. I started listening to his mixes around 1999. I happened upon it by accident in one of those IRC chats. All his mixes were available for download. At that time, there were only a handfull. Fast forward to 2007, you have over a hundred! Just google him and you'll see many a mixes available for download.

My favorite is Vocal Editions, SSE and Trancequility mixes. In general, I like almost all his stuff. But with that much to choose from, its hard to pinpoint.

"Vocal Edition Volume 04". Tracks 1-4:
01. fragma - embrace me (durestadt vocal remix)
02. camino feat jeanna - feels like heaven (jet set remix)
03. sally oldfield - mirrors (mario lopez club rmx)
04. velvet - china in your hands (extended mix)

This maybe my favorite 4 songs together ever. It was my metrolink to office mix for over a year when I had a longer commute. Even today, I still listen to these 4 tracks over and over again.

It's a shame that DJ Doby is on hiatus at the moment and his last mix released in 2007. I await his return.
