WELL HELLO PEOPLE! WE HAVE FINALLY GOT AROUND TO GETTING OURSELVES A SMALL WEBSITE.
TRANCE4MATION HAS BEEN PUTTING HARD DANCE NIGHTS ON IN PENWITH, CORNWALL SINCE 2002. BASICALLY WE HAD ENOUGH OF THE FACT IF YOU LIVED IN PENWITH + WANTED A GOOD NIGHT OF QUALITY HARD DANCE YOU ALWAYS HAD TO TRAVEL AS FAR AS TRURO OR NEWQUAY. PLUS ALSO THERE WAS NOWHERE IN PENWITH WILLING TO GIVE LOCAL 'HOMEGROWN' HARD DANCE DJs A CHANCE TO PLAY OUT TO AN APPRECIATIVE CROWD. SO TRANCE4MATION BEGAN.
WE FIRST HELD A NIGHT TO FIND OUT WHAT DJ TALENT THEIR WAS IN PENWITH. IT WAS A SMALL NIGHT BUT THE MUSIC + DJs WERE OF TOP STANDARD - Ben JAMMIN, CHAOS, DEYN XTREME, CHARLIE.G + A FEW OTHERS.
IN AUG 2002 WE HELD OUR LAUNCH NIGHT @ PENZANCE ASTROPARK + MY GOD WHAT A NIGHT - IT WAS AMAZING. WE BROUGHT 'HOMEGROWN' GIRL - MADAM ZU AS OUR SPECIAL GUEST (THE 1ST TIME PLAYING AT A CLUB NIGHT IN PENZANCE SINCE HER VENUE DAYS + SHE BLEW THE NIGHT AWAY.) ALSO PLAYING WERE Ben JAMMIN, DEYN XTREME (RESIDENTS) + IEMPEROR. THE EVENT WAS A COMPLETE SELL OUT, RAMMING THE 300 CAPACITY VENUE TO THE BRIM. THOSE WHO WERE THERE WILL AGREE THAT IT WAS CERTAINLY A NIGHT TO REMEMBER + THOSE OF YOU WHO WERENT THERE - WELL YOU MISSED SOMETHING SPECIAL!
THAT WAS IT TRANCE4MATION WAS BORN + WHAT A ROLLER COASTER IT HAS BEEN - THERE HAVE BEEN LOWS + HIGHS THROUGHOUT BUT WE NEVER FAILED IN PUTTING ON AWESUM NIGHTS. AFTER THE LAUNCH NIGHT WE TOOK UP RESIDENCY IN THE COMMERCIAL HOTEL, ST.JUST FOR THE NEXT YEAR.
ONCE A MONTH WE HELD EARTH SHATTERING NIGHTS. FROM OUR LOCAL DJ NIGHTS TO OUR HALLOWEEN BALL WITH ZETAN SPORE + MADAM ZU. OUR CHRISTMAS BALL WITH LEGEND CHRIS.C (MOHAWK / M.O.M / TIDY). ALSO NOT FORGETTING OUR BLOW OUT OF A NEW YEARS EVE SHINDIG 02/03 WHEN WE SAW AT LEAST 500 PEOPLE PASS THROUGH OUR DOORS DURING THE NIGHT WHICH WENT FROM 9PM TILL 6AM - A VERY MESSY NIGHT INDEED FEATURING DJs Ben JAMMIN, ZETAN SPORE, SHOEY, LADY RAGE, LAURA.H. NEIL ROWE. DJ KARMA + MANY MORE. SADLY AT THE BEGGINNING OF 2003 WE STOPPED HOLDING EVENTS AT THE VENUE , IT HAS BEEN SADLY MISSED + WE WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER THE MESSY TIMES WE HAD + THE FRIENDS WE MADE THERE. THANX EVERYONE!
DURING OUR TIME THERE WE ALSO VENTURED OUT + DID TWO EVENTS BY THE SEASIDE AT THE WELLOE ROCK, PRAA SANDS, AT THE END OF SUMMER 2002 ONE NIGHT WAS WITH CHRIS.C + ANOTHER WITH THE ALMIGHTY UBERDRUCK + THE CROW (GERMANY) + HARD TRANCE LEGEND M-ZONE.
IN NOVEMBER 2002 WE HELD A SPECIAL DJs BIRTHDAY NIGHT FOR DJ Ben JAMMIN + DJ KARMA. IT WAS A HARDCORE SPECIAL WITH SPECIAL GUESTS SHOEY + DJ HIXXY (BONKERS). THE NIGHT WENT OFF SO MUCH, THE TURN OUT WAS GOOD - EVEN THOUGH DUE TO LICENCE LAWS WE HAD TO CLOSE EARLY - SOZ.
IN 2003 THINGS WENT REALLY QUIET FOR US DUE TO VENUE PROBLEMS. BUT, HOWEVER IT WAS A GOOD YEAR FOR OUR RESIDENTS DJs, Ben JAMMIN + DEYN XTREME. BOTH WENT ON TO HAVE BOOKINGS AT OTHER CLUB NIGHTS THROUGHOUT CORNWALL. DEYN WENT ON TO WARM UP AT TALL TREES FOR UNIVERSAL UNDERGROUNDS' NIGHTS ALONGSIDE THE LIKES OF LEE HASLEM (TIDY) + THEY BOTH PLAYED THERE WARMING UP FOR JAMES LAWSON (NUKLEUZ).
BEN ALSO PLAYED AS A GUEST FOR ZETAN SPORE AT THE WHITEHOUSE + IN TORPOINT. HE ALSO PLAYED A FEW TIMES AT CLUB 2000, PENZANACE.
BOTH DEYN + BEN QUICKLY EARNED THE REPUTATION OF BEING 2 OF THE FINEST HARD DANCE DJs IN PENZNACE.
2004 HAS ALSO BEEN A GOOD YEAR FOR US AT TRANCE4MATION. AT EASTER WE DECIDED TO HOLD A TRANCE4MATION REUNION @ BOSUNS CLUB, PENZANCE WIV OUR RESIDENT DJs Ben JAMMIN, DEYN XTREME + DJ KARMA. OUR GUEST DJ WAS OUR GOOD FRIEND MADAM ZU CELEBRATING HER NEW TUNE SIGNINGS TO TIDY + NUKLEUZ. A GOOD STOMPING NIGHT WAS HAD BY ALL + IT WAS GOOD TO SEE SO MANY REGULAR FACES ONCE AGAIN - BIG UP TO ALL THAT CAME!
OUR LAST EVENT WAS IN MAY 2004 @ THE WHITEHOUSE WITH DJ VINYLGROOVER + MY GOD WAT A SET THE MAN PLAYED RIGHT THROUGH FROM HARD DANCE 2 HARDCORE 2 OLD SKOOL. WE WERE LUCKY ENOUGH TO HAVE RECORDED IT + PLAY IT ON A REGULAR BASIS. FOR THOSE THAT MISSED IT YOU MISSED SOMETHING TRUELY SPECIAL - MEMORIES!
SINCE THEN OUR RESIDENTS HAVE BEEN BUSY LITTLE BEES. SADLY WE LOST DJ KARMA AS HE FLEW OFF TO PORTUGAL FOR TIME OUT TRAVELLING - HE IS TRUELY MISSED. DEYN EXTREME GOT HIS OWN LITTLE THING GOING AT CLUB EUPHORIA, CAMBOURNE + PULLED GOOD OLD Ben JAMMIN IN, TO INCREASE THE PACE ABIT( HA!) DOING THEIR BOUNCE + HARD DANCE STYLE THING TOGETHER. THEY ALSO TRIED OUT TO BECOME THE BARN CLUB, PENZANCES' NEW RESIDENT DJs. THEY LITERALLY TOOK THE ROOF IN THE BACK ROOM. AT SOME POINT DURING THE NIGHT THEY WERE HAVING THEIR NAMES CHANTED BY THE ADORING CROWD. SADLY HOWEVER THEY DID NOT GET THE RESIDENCIES - GUESS THE BARN CANT HANDLE IT!. BUT THEN REALLY IT WAS FOR THE BEST, BUT MY GOD WHAT A NIGHT!
SINCE THEN THINGS HAVE BEEN A LITTLE BIT QUITE IN THE TRANCE4MATION STABLES BUT ALOT OF WORK HAS BEEN GOING ON BEHIND THE SCENES TO PUT ON FUTURE AWESUM HARD DANCE NIGHTS IN THE SOUTH WEST.
A BIG THANK YOU TO ALL WHO HAVE TURNED OUT TO SUPPORT US ON OUR JOURNEY. A MASSIVE SHOUT TO ALL THE LOCAL DJs WHO HAVE PLAYED FOR US BEN, DEYN, KARMA, SPECIAL K, ZETAN SPORE, MADAM ZU, SHOEY, DEVINYL, LADY RAGE, CHAOS, LAURA H, NEIL ROWE, CHARLIE G, ZINGA + TOMMY GUN
