Trance Nation 2010

After a long hiatus in the genre, Ministry of Sound returned in 2009 to the fore of the Trance with Trance Nation, an epic 2CD collection and Tour that was met with resounding success amongst trance fans nationwide. Now, 2010 sees this hugely popular release return to shelves and clubs around the country once again with Trance Nation Vol. 2

Assuming touring duties is without doubt the biggest Aussie name in Trance today, tyDi, who currently holds Australia’s #1 DJ and #2 Producer positions, as voted in the inthemix50 DJ poll. At just 23 years old, his rise to the top has been as quick as it has been impressive; he’s played alongside some of dance’s biggest heavyweights including Above & Beyond, Tiesto, Armin Van Buuren and Paul van Dyk, Fedde le Grand at Melbourne’s Sensation event, plus a main stage spot at Trance Energy in the Netherlands. A further endorsement from the dance establishment came in the form of Armin van Buuren’s label Armada releasing tyDi’s recent production “Meet Me in Kyoto” - and his debut album Look Closer made him the 2nd highest selling Australian dance artist album in its opening month.

Also embarking on the national tour is Dutch born DJ and producer MaRLo who now calls Australia his home. After years invested into the EDM scene as an exciting producer and creative up and coming DJ, Melbourne now provides the perfect platform for a loyal and endearing fan base to emerge from, and over the past 12 months MaRLo has done just that. Having signed productions to trance super-labels such as Armada and Spinnin Records and remixing giant artists such as Ferry Corsten, MaRLo is a name fast becoming a name internationally recognized in the world of trance music.
