TRANCE ALL STARS <Lange, Max Graham and Protoculture> 30 Aug

[jedstur]

In conjunction with Assured Artists, JAM DJ Management and Rush Productions, Evolution Events are proud to present a brand new format for the world’s hottest DJ talent to shine on the Australian scene - TRANCE ALL STARS.

No gimmicks, no tricks, no themes… just a platform for the best in the EDM business to reach from all four corners of the globe to Australia’s dancefloors and into the ears and hearts of fans.

LANGE

Leading this star-studded line-up is a 15-year master in the business, recognised as one of the most influential dance artists on the planet - the UK legend LANGE.

Remaining at the forefront of the scene throughout his career, Lange is a producer that continues to push all boundaries. Boasting an exhausting list of achievements including twenty UK top 40s, film soundtrack credits and remixing mainstream artists such as The Pet Shop Boys, Lange remains one of the world's leading EDM producers.

With tracks like Live Forever, Let It All Out & Out of the Sky with Sarah Howells, We Are Lucky People and 2005’s classic anthem Sincere, Lange is also not afraid to experiment; evident in tracks like Another You Another Me and Harmony Will Kick You In The Ass which have since become some of the defining moments in the evolution of his modern trance sound.

With more than a quarter of a million fans on Facebook and counting, it’s easy to see why Lange is one of the more consistent and likeable producers and DJ’s in trance today. His eclectic, stimulating and driving trance sets pull influences from across the dance music spectrum from trance, progressive, techno and electro; showing with ease why he is one of the most exciting and lively performers out there; forever keeping the crowd buzzing for more.

MAX GRAHAM

Joining him for the first time to Australia in almost a decade is a man who has single-handedly stormed his way onto the world stage with consistent precision towards his craft - a true testament to his creative ability... the unfaltering sound of MAX GRAHAM.

Never sticking to one marketable genre of music, Max spreads his taste across many spectrums of sound to ensure the most engaging and creative live sets imaginable. Originally debuting in the world-renowned DJ Mag Top 100 at #23 spot, Max has produced strongly-supported dancefloor movers regularly in his time, including mastering production across the sounds of electo, house and trance.

More recently, Max has been invited by Armin van Buuren to play at several of his A State Of Trance events – even teaming up in a rare back to back set with fellow trancer Protoculture at ASOT 600 in Mexico - and more recently playing alongside Orjan Nilsen, Andrew Rayel and Armin himself at ASOT at Privilege, Ibiza.

Effortlessly blending the lushest of prog-trance, the most percussive and tribal of techno and the soaring melodies of the most uplifting trance, Max Graham is firmly at home behind the decks and is gaining new fans at a meteoric pace with his hugely successful radio show “Cycles Radio”, which has trended worldwide on Twitter on more than one occasion.

PROTOCULTURE

To round off this formidable trio of the best modern day trance acts, this man is a world class name receiving accolades from trance kings such as Armin van Buuren who rightfully stated that "everything he touches turns to musical gold" - South Africa's PROTOCULTURE.

The last few years have seen a new direction for Protoculture, with support from major names such as Armin van Buuren, Markus Schulz, Christopher Laurence, Paul Oakenfold, Above and Beyond and John 00 Fleming. His 2010 rework of 'Grace - Not Over Yet' with Max Graham landed the #1 spot on the DMC UK Club Charts as well as the number one position on the 'Trance Top 100' at Beatport.com where it stayed for an entire month.

In 2011 and 2012, Protoculture was ranked as the number one DJ in South Africa according to the acclaimed international DJ Mag Top 100 Polls and with a new album on the way with Dutch powerhouse label, Armada Records, the only way his career is going is up.

For a truly powerful tour of epic proportions, make sure you do not miss TRANCE ALL STARS featuring three of the most cutting-edge and talented names in modern day trance…

Heyhey Sentinel.. AWESOME to hear you had a good time! I can't argue with those points either - the sound quality was better than I've ever heard at Trak before, they did a great job updating and tweaking it... and the production team did a CRAZY job. I actually wanted to spend more time on the dancefloor but I was busy working the show!

Thanks for coming along We've got an intimate show with The Thrillseekers on this Saturday night for $20 if you're keen! PLENNNTY more shows where that came from...
