Annamh - the Irish word for rare, as I appreciate a podcast episode is a rare thing from me these days - so rare in fact that I missed out on my decade anniversary. This podcast is in fact 11 years old this month!Από τον Franetic

Could it really have been named anything else? Subsequently I finally found some time to do another episode - its been, a very long time. So much has happened. I hope the attached sounds find you well and avoiding any evil organisms trying to make a home in you. What a weird time on Earth hey!? As a weapon of mass distraction I have created this mi…

Hello! Are you ready for a descent in to utter chaos? Well, here is the soundtrack to take you there in the form of my 137th episode.

I have found some absolute belters which cross the whole spectrum of my usual trancey journeys. I have …

Featuring some bang up to date tunes alongside some of those secret classic bangers I spend so long hunting for! Enjoy the mix guys! xXx 1] B.B.E - Seven Days and One We…

Hello! It is FINALLY here - episode 135! Do you ever get tingles and chills when listening to Trance, or any music? I do, seriously; goosebumps galore. Music is in fact able to trigger physiological responses in some people - usually this is a pleasurable phenomena and can vary in intensity. No two people will likely feel these shivers in exactly t…

Welcome to Ra - namesake of the Egyptian Sun God as well, as it happens - one of my all time favourite tracks which I have finally got hold of via the legend that is Louk... to be discovered for you maybe, but I first heard it on Euphoria Pure from the year 2000 and fell in love with it - its no speaker jumper by todays standards but I adore it. Th…

Episode 131, this is 'The Legend' - I actually got it done, and nearly a month after the last episode! HUZZAHHHH!

Its got some gorgeous uplift to it, and some incredibly oldsko…

I have found some monster remixes of classics some new and some old as well as a few all out newbie belters! This …

Travelling through from progressive with an all time classic which I heard again recently from Deadmau5 - such an awesome track - never featured on the podcast before…

Are we alone? With Trance, you are never alone. To lift you, to take you to go with you - for me, it's the genre that means the most and to be truly honest, I would be lost without it... This is episode 125 of the Franetic Podcast; Drake Equation. Enjoy peeps... 1] Joonas Hahmo - African Dream (Original Mix)2] Sivan & Yoel Lewis - Caesarea (Extende…

So here is my first episode of 2015 - being British and looking at many of my past podcast descriptions, I feel the need to apologise for it's lateness - Its something to do with British people that's for sure, I was walking up the stairs at work yesterday and as I passed someone on the stairs they apologised to me. Unless they know something I don…

Enrico Fermi once asked ”Where is everybody?” So the the idea of the Fermi Paradox was born.... Well I have a theory; they [the elusive other worldly civilizations] are obviously all busy raving in their own Dyson spheres, without a care in the cosmos for what else exists - designers of their own personal infinite universe. Well, here is a piece of…
