DMb Podcast 021 : Torin on DMb (feat: Marc Romboy, Umek, Thee-O, Spencer & Hill)

djnth — Thu, 29 Apr 2010 09:36:54 +0000

Torin Schmitt from Los Angeles, California and Berlin, Germany has become the DJ that LA goes to when it needs a Top 100 caliber DJ for a lineup. In addition to supporting all of the World’s top DJs when in town he also holds many club nights on his own in LA and around the world for his performances. Most recently Torin has had tracks and remixes featured on compilation CDs from Markus Schulz, Paul Oakenfold, and Will Holland on labels such as Perfecto, System, Peak Hour, and MixMag.

A live performance from Torin is different than most DJ sets as he is known for using abstract tools like Jazzmutant’s Lemur, Korg’s Kaossilator and the Akai APC40 while he transforms Techno, Tech House and Progressive to move the dancefloor. The energy is what it’s about and his mashups, remixes, edits and originals are built to speak a common language on the dance floor.

Get your shoelaces tied tight for 2 hours of Torin’s Progressive Tech House mix.

Enjoy!

From Trackitdown.net
On Friday night thousands of people turned up at The Gallery @ Ministry of Sound nightclub for the Trance Awards ceremony. The party went off like a particularly well-primed firework. Markus Schulz, Menno De Jong, Simon Patterson, Sean Tyas, Claudia Cazacu & Jerome Isma-me all stepped behind the turntables and laid down the trance law! Over in the annex room Al Excess, Laura May, Hidden Agenda, Ryan Wilkinson and Intertek – the winners of the Trance Awards DJ Competition – did similarly fine work making their Ministry debuts!

Thanks to everyone for their support. The official Trance Awards Euphoria 2009 album is out now.
