one of the trance treasures, Kaycee

Accidentally I knew this group when I googling the word "trance is my escape". From the list offered by google there were some of youtube videos, one of them titled trance - escape.

Well, the track seems good. Then I began to discover about Kaycee. There is not much information about them.

Kaycee is a German trance music group which consist of Jette von Roth, Oliver Huntemann, and Stephan Bodzin. While other said that Kaycee is trance aliases of the producer Stephan Bodzin. The trio began hit the scene in the 1997 with their hit single "Escape".

and here are some of their hit tracks:

ada Heineken dibalik "Save my night" nya Armin

There's something different in Armin's brand new single called Save My Night. In the video clip, There is a campaign with hastag #DMDS, abbreviation for Dance More, Drink Slow. It's like a message  to us to reduce alcohol consumption, especially in a club. 

I also found something familiar on Armin's t-shirt. There's a logo "e" with headphone. That logo is like a logo of 'enjoy responsibly' by heineken. It made me curious, so I began googling.

and here is what happened >> http://www.thedrum.com/news/2014/01/06/heineken-partners-armin-van-buuren-responsible-drinking-campaign

as I guess, both of them are related.

with Armin van Buuren,  Heineken launched their global drinking campaign called Dance More, Drink Slow to send a more positive message to the product that people can still enjoying themselves and also remaining in control by enjoying more music than drink.

"tonight, dj save my night",that lyric describes how good music and good dj can influence people from drinking too much to be more enjoy the night.

Di kelab ini anak-anak boleh masuk

Hah, gak salah tuh?.

ya, kelab ini memang diperuntukkan untuk anak-anak usia 9-15 tahun. Adalah Elle Morgan, seorang Dj berumur 13 tahun yang memiliki ide ini. Ia ingin teman-teman seusianya bisa menikmati penampilannya.

Morgan membuat kelab khusus anak-anak bernama Elle's House di sebuah tempat bermain bernama "Pump it up" di Woodland, Texas. Isinya? didalamnya ada pizza, minuman soda, permen, glow stick, dan tentu saja lantai dansa. Kelab ini juga memiliki beberapa peraturan, seperti "No bad language, no kissing…and no twerking". Kelab ini juga mendapat penjagaan dari polisi dan orang tua yang ingin mendampingi anak-anak mereka.

Elle's House dibuka setiap malam Jum'at dan Sabtu, mulai pukul 7 malam sampai pukul 12 malam, seperti di tulis dilaman facebooknya Elle's House

Hmm agak kotroversial memang kedengarannya, tapi faktanya tempat ini tidak lebih dari sebuah tempat bermain, I prefer call it playground rather than a club. Emang kantor beritanya aja tuh lebay, labelin pake nama nightclub.

What I see is, sebuah hiburan (konser) musik untuk dinikmati oleh anak-anak dengan lingkungan yang disesuaikan untuk mereka. I think it's okay, as long as they enjoy the music and socialize with others. It's better rather than stuck in the front of computer. They are going out, having fun, and socializing with peers.

just remember kids, what uncle Armin said, "you don't need drugs to have a good time"

Tiesto - Magikal Journey (The Hits Collection 1998-2008)

This album features Tiesto's tracks from his studio album, In My Memory, Just Be, and Elements of Life, which mainly filled with trance track. It's little bit feel old but the tune is timeless for sure. and It's still banging. For me his trance works are the best.

Indonesia is the fourth city of #NewHorizons #ASOT650 world tour after Russia, Netherlands, and Argentina.

it's obvious then that Armin show in Jakarta, Indonesia will be ASOT650 world tour. I've never thought before because the news said that it will be 'soon', so I think the show will be held this year. But, it's okay ASOT will be better because the line-up is always awesome. I wonder who's going to perform in Jakarta beside Armin itself.

Woahhh! finally ASOT come to Indonesia!! :D

However, still there's no updates about when and where the show will take place.

What a great news! I am so excited! Armin has been rumored to appear on the massive EDM event in indonesia called Djakarta Warehouse Project but its just getting vague. Armin actually is preparing his world tour for the new album Intense, so this show could be the Armin Only, Intense Word tour because indotrance said 'soon'.

as far as I know, Armin has been came to Jakarta, Indonesia, 3 times, in 2007, 2008, and 2009 (*correct me if I am wrong) and now he's back! I can't wait for the updates.
