---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[20:02] <@Ian`> Hey Brendan, just you or is Dave with you ?
[20:03] <@TransaIvibes> Both here!

[20:03] <@ami_> hello, how you doing :)
[20:03] <@TransaIvibes> were doing great thanks

[20:03] <+Bleemer> yo transa wassup??
[20:03] <@TransaIvibes> lol

[20:04] <+[N]uk|eu[Z]> hey transa, lets cut to the chase........ me and Ian, were just recently having a conversation on oldskool rave....... is there a possibility of you ever going old skool on a track.... and bring out a nice 94 style track?...... if so, id love to hear it
[20:05] <@TransaIvibes> err...dont know about that !

[20:05] <+Bleemer> so...i MUST start with the big question...!! WHY you turned down the uplifting trance for the progressive??? i remember remixes for the vengaboys,alice deejay and gouryella that rocked all clubs but now i cant find a track that pitch up 134bpm ... :/ whys that??
[20:05] <@TransaIvibes> we new this queston would come up
[20:06] <@TransaIvibes> it was more the direction that the label was going
[20:07] <@TransaIvibes> kind of forced us in that direction
[20:07] <@TransaIvibes> and also the big trancers were getting a bad name
[20:07] <@TransaIvibes> at the time

[20:07] <@Ian`> Guys, are you actually signed to the label as in the fact they dictate what they want you to make ?
[20:09] <@TransaIvibes> they didnt have a gun to our heads, but if we wanted tracks out, we had to diverse and to be fair to the label, they were in a corner as well

[20:08] <+plastikE> Transa: you a Man-United fan? and if youre watching the game, whats the score? lol
[20:09] <@TransaIvibes> not watching the game, speaking to you

[20:10] <+Bleemer> ye...what about supernova 2002 ????
[20:10] <@TransaIvibes> Supernova 2003....just might happen!!

[20:10] <+[N]uk|eu[Z]> TRANSA....... as soon as umone says to me TRANSA..... i immediately think carlas theme....... which track would you like to be most memorably known for or associated with?
[20:10] <@TransaIvibes> enervate and supernova

[20:11] <+Bleemer> i must tell you that your remixes for VENGABOYS and ALICE DEEJAY was two of the strongest trances i have eves heard!!!
[20:11] <@TransaIvibes> thanks

[20:11] <@ami_> how, much of a help was it, with oakenfold releasing enervate on perfecto, ages ago?
[20:12] <@TransaIvibes> oakenfold releasing enervate really put us here now

[20:12] <+Bleemer> i think you could have much bigger success if u had continue the uplifting
[20:13] <@TransaIvibes> We have just started our own label..Exciter...and you can look forward to some big tunes on there!

[20:13] <@Finne> TransaIvibes: what style label ?
[20:13] <@TransaIvibes> big trance and some more big trance

[20:14] <+[N]uk|eu[Z]> TRANSA..... i am more known for liking harder music as opposed to uplifting and epic trance..... i do still like epic/uplifting stuff, but it dont excite me as much...... anyway....... probably the most talked about DJ this year is Armin...... i personally think the guy is soo over-rated and tbh, i dont enjoy his sets at all....... what are your views on his style, and his sets?
[20:15] <@TransaIvibes> Armin has done some great stuff, only heard him playing a couple of times and he was very good

[20:16] <+Moon-Man> here Rob, what was ur main syth for prod, Beams Of Gaia???
[20:16] <@TransaIvibes> Hi Rob
[20:17] <@TransaIvibes> dont give away all your secrets rob ;)

[20:17] <@ami_> TransaIvibes : can we expect, anymore ambient stuff, like when day breaks, or timeless, or was that a experimental phase to prove that your flexible music artists, not just trance artists?
[20:18] <@TransaIvibes> very much so...we were writing that style of music years before transa came about, it was nice to go back to that

[20:18] <+[N]uk|eu[Z]> TRANSA ........ you are given the job of producing a track.. in a diferent style from what you usually make... what style do you make the track?
[20:19] <@TransaIvibes> country and western meets d&B ;)
[20:20] <+[N]uk|eu[Z]> honestly what style would you do?
[20:20] <@TransaIvibes> probably more housey....we like house!
[20:20] <+[N]uk|eu[Z]> which sort?
[20:21] <@TransaIvibes> tech house/funky house

[20:20] <+Swamper> Transa - how was your gig in Toronto a few months ago? I heard the venue had technical difficulties early on in the night......
[20:21] <@TransaIvibes> the gig in toronto was great, there were a few tech difficulties, but we manage to get the gear going

[20:21] <+Bleemer> so not a chance hearing the tenshi remix in your set...you dont go beyond 130bpm :[
[20:22] <@TransaIvibes> we go way above 130...all the big guns are in there

[20:22] <@Finne> TransaIvibes: if you have time to comment on my latest tune.... http://home.kabelfoon.nl/~fluitsma/Phynn_-_Amon.mp3

[20:23] <@TransaIvibes> although daves wife says he can "bend it like beckham!"
[20:24] <@Ian`> I think Beckham has ear plugs to all musics, esp with victoria cos she cant sing
[20:25] <@TransaIvibes> lol

[20:23] <@ami_> heh, john 00 fleming dont like footy, transa dont like footy, are all good trance artists alergic to football or summat?
[20:24] <@TransaIvibes> guess so!

[20:25] <+Bleemer> transa, if u will be asked to make a remix in 140BPM will you agree??
[20:26] <@TransaIvibes> were not ashamed of going to 140! ;)
