 To create the 2.5 hour set we call Alchemy we : used parts of over 80 tracks and created and used over 40 home made synth, bass, and perc loops.  It is a true collaboration instead of a versus set.  The whole set is Niko and Jason and though most of it was sequenced in Ableton Live using 22 channels, there are Parts where its just Jason on Decks but his skill with those things is so unbelievable nobody will be able to point out those parts. 



   When I first joined this site I heard a set from Jason Randall and was hooked in 5 minutes.  I have said many times Ive been in this scene for a long time (21 years) and he i9s by far my favorite DJ on the planet.  If any of you know Jason he is the closest thing to an Alchemist I have ever known.  In life and in music.  I feel lucky and honored to be able to work with him and consider him a brother on so many levels.  I tell you all this because this is the culmination of countless of conversations,m texts ideas and experiences we have had. We used Ableton Live and alot of our time to create this,  because with technology today we can.  Im not sure if all of this means you will like it but we hope you do.



  Jason and I are moving on to a Techno project we have discussing for a while.  We are going to use Ableton to try and take the dark techno style hes known for to another dimension.  we will be releasing our next collab soon.  Thank you all for the amazing feedback and support we have recieved so far on this site! Enjoy!

well, 17 in and wow. 'Any crew negative' havent heard that track in years. Well, i have ever heard it played like that,,,,track after seems local to my box to. Intro was wicked, Long, but like the message..so many bits in and out.. Although was a part that lost me... Nice evolution to the progressive stuff. For me, putting so many progressive tracks together with trying to keep the motion is hard. 1`41min. going take me a while to have a good listen.
So far So wicked. (23 mins jason mixing) a guess

Haha good guess Sanka but no thats not a part where he comes in on decks. I told Jason noone would be able to guess. This whole thing is made by us both but there are 3 parts when its just him mixing w maybe an added kick or cym but thats not 1 of them. Not even that close really. Haha thanks though for giving it your time. Always appreciate your feedback.

i have been listening to electronic since the dark ages. and it all hit me when i heard heaven scent i can tell you that i cant move past this part just because it has been 7 years since i heard this track and never like this and out of nowhere. seriously if you can listen past 20 minutes because of being mesmerized there is a issue that i just need to live with nothing is better in other words. how did i live to hear such a triumph

Great Great Great mix. Jason Randall, best DJ in the world (IMO), you kill it with this set. Progressive to the fullest, hadn't heard a progressive set from you in a while, but this one was long over due. Such a great mix.
Perfection on so many aspects, sound quality, mixing, sampling,,,,,this mix should be something that I would pay for. I mean, it's fucking top notch, studio sound.
The two of you did such great work, and I look forward to your Techno collab!!!

Back here again :).....pffff there are so many tracks coming up from every where,i just can say, how you pulled this off????? I stopped listening to trance and progressive around 7-8 years back.Why??? No one could handle a on going story for more than 1 hour,and it was sounding all the same..i don't have to tell you the dj's from the scene,cause you know very well who i mean.Since i meet you Niko,and as well Jason(but more for the Techno Stuff) getting me again into this stuff....I never heard that prog and trance got mixed so quick,tracks coming in,some times just after minutes and it still keeps the vibes of the hole flow.I can hear here some really old classics out,but never heard put them together like this.About your technical skills we don't have to talk any ways.By the third listening i gave up to figure out who is playing when...as i said so many times now here,for me it's about the hole story what we as artist's try to tell.Some get it some not.Even when i listen to Jason set's it's most of time wtf is going on,and i refuse to play techno because there is no change to lay it better down like him,(in reall time!!!!!!!!!!)the same is with you Niko,but you use software,and now the big but is coming......you make the software to your slave and you control whats happening,and not like many many others doing,to mix 2 tracks together(i know i said this all ready) add some typical effects and sync the tracks with out doing the mixing by your self.........hahaha sorry for the long statement,this is my thinking of how it is..Ok come back here.....THIS IS A DAMN KILLER IN THE PROG AND TRANCE WORLD........Mind it, two of (in my oppinion) best dj's doing a Journey what you can't find any where.................I am out....nuff said...........RESPECT to you my friends

Before I comment on this saga here, i wanna first say the honor it has been to not only know you but be a part of this musical conquest, Since the day you contacted me on this site and I then turned and listen to your set and was left dazed and confused like 20 mexicans in a low rider chevy with 10 pounds of skunky monkey, i REALIZED this cat is doing something sick over here, then i listened and examined a mix and was left stumped, dumed in the noggin, then we started chatting and i started to follow you and started to really indulge into your sets and said, this is the best progressive sets i had ever heard in my life, now i go back to the days of the diggers, sasha, seaman, cass, sandra collins, noel sanger just to name a few, and could not believe that for all i knew about music that you had topped a genre that stapled my musical past...............so we became friends and the relationship and respect was born, and not only do i respect u and fam, but believe that our friendship along with music is going to sweeten the pot of whats to come musically and the nastiness to follow, this mix when i listen to it is a head shaking rendition of sickness, half the tracks you used to manipulate were basic bets on OH NIKO YOU THINK YOU CAN DO THISSSSSSSSSSS..WELL as my comments will show soon...you did more than that, you topped any possible notion i had..............i believe that nobody can touch you and ableton, that progressive now has been taken to the max.......you have proven that........NOW ITS TIME FOR US TO TAKE THIS TECHNO TO THE LEVEL OF A NEW FACE........and push the boundries if if its for us 2 and our house mixes friends and fans....for this will be worth it....i am glad to know not a DJ but a technician sick mutha F----........OH YES TOP GEEZ...comment on set in complete coming soon..

OPENING TRACK!!!! - Begins with vocal narratives leading to the slow, melodic buildup at the 4:00 mark. Caught in a suspended anticipation; the feeling you have on a roller coaster before it eases off the entrance point. 7:07 - Juicy alchemy indeed...female vocal chants!!!!! 13:00 - The adage that playing classical music next to a baby's crib will make the child more intelligent. Please tell me this right here doesn't challenge any theory. 17:35 - GOOSEBUMPS!!!!!!!!! Stuttering female vocal chops, powerful melody. 20:52 - Those goosebumps are releasing blood the same color as the cover art on this journey. Point here...LOCKED IN!!!!!!!! 24:00 - It doesn't matter how posh or how destitute a scene may be, you can't wait to pay the cover to hear this. 30:51 - B E A U T I F U L stanza!!!!!!!!!!!! 35:03 - Notice the warping synth. 38:10 - ELECTRICAL SHOCKS like cocaine-laced hashish to the system. 41:00 - Those DAMN voices and the melody. 49:30 - SWINGS!!!!!!! 52:40 - GAME ON THEY SAY!!!!!!!!! All audio effects with the THUMPIN' BASSLINE!!!!!! 56:00 - ABSOLUTELY WICKED!!!!!!! Male vocal loop, dark theme on the melody. 62:35 - Imagery... what if we were born of the Sentinelese tribe who live without technology? 71:33 - MDMA APPROVED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! More warping, spiraling synth and percussion. Of course they would make these teas out of the vegetation and ancient receipes kept within their 250 people population. The effect of those teas would feel like this. 76:48 - Heh...heh...you feelin' it? 92:10 - PAN FLUTE and percussion!!!!!! 96:40 - Notice the female vocals underneath the drums and synth. They live on North Sentinel Island, between India and Thailand. 103:53 - SUBLIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! On your greatest accomplishment or when that thing you've been in agony waiting for finally becomes reality, you hear this. 106:30 - GO MAN GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GOTH BLOOD PICS licking glazed knifes hung up all over the destitute bar. Had to come here, it gets real like that. We get sick of rules and what we can and cannot do. 114:00 - MEANINGFUL MOTION!!!!!!!!!! Pulsating on all audio elements and wait for the male vocals to come in. Get sick of being patient while dining on their smirk burgers and thumbtacks. 120:13 - Luv the vocals. 129:00 - AH YES!!!!!!! Male vocal hook, "Rise," with the same climbing vibez on the bassline and synth. Notice the female vocal gasp in the background. Gotta go \\0// on this bit, straight-laced or born-again sicko don't matter, you gotta be feelin' this. 136:10 - CODA!!!!!! UTOPIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! In our tribe we would hunt, plant, tend, eat, and sleep. There are the level of demands in that mortal coil, but you wonder how much so because you're not plugged in. Anyone trying to land on the islands today should write out their will first. A National Geographic team was forced to turn back after the lead team member got an arrow through his thigh, and two local guides were killed. We like it here....here in the mind's utopia, where we live by our own rules.

- Emotional and enveloping, this is Progressive House that is a musical EXPERIENCE. This is an OPERA, and with the time you invest, you leave the world's system behind. 142 mins...31 secs... Casslolo's comment inside, "This is nothing short of magic."

NIKO THAT INTRO IS ONCE AGAIN MIND BOGGLING. As 341 is shifting this section here i purposely mixed multiple elements back together to create a kind of off section where you dont know which way its going....meant in purpose to be this way to have your ears question the frequency thats building.

with a slight ticking in the left ear, this is to throw the brain off, as a bass line thump starts to travel in the background this is where the mix is to take shape and puzzle together to fit into a journey, that in all reality is staggering. the voices that slowly come in, are meant to be shifting slightly off the bassline this is purposeful, to make your ears finally catch up to what the brain is sensing, THIS ENTIRE FIRST SEQUENCE WAS DESIGNED TO FOLD INTO NIKO'S ALMOST COMICAL RENDITION OF THE PAST AND PRESENT, AS SOON WILL SEE.

so here at 43, it was how could we find one of the nastiest prog tracks today i said with vocals, and then i found, and said nope not good enough need more COWBELL, another words more drums and beats, but thats when creative flashes of beat building, and never letting a track play idol in the near, but allowing the listener the feeling of i know that track but now on steroids....THIS IS WHERE STILL CANT MATCH THE NIKO ABLETON...but how many decks we gotta spin

by the time 47 shows up, the purpose is to make you say what the flippers is going didddoownnnnnn.....where are we headed...by 49 its supposed to tunnel vision the listener, same old sounds from minutes ago, now pitch bending with a flow of loops, and voices creeping, oh and ech button....oh and is that straight beat busting through....

let me say this i have been a bad boy lately getting a lil tipsy, this mix is a high in itself. best dag on progger in the escence of time, the work and time you guys are putting in, and niko the amount of skill you have is meant for the stage, forget the big time names this is what needs to be shown again, a dj in the corner not right in front just a bunch a druggy kids dancing the night away, oh how i remember this time when real music had a home. i am onto kinetic now. how this will ever be topped?:??

7131 pick back up, acidic background voices swirling like baskin robbins 31 flavors at 8am......at least 5 tracks gotta be running, teaming up with niko is like a swedish bikini team with no restrictions. 73 minutes its like an envelope of developed coffee, amazing how life gets a new breath but with previous tracks finally playing out, the filter now is releasing off the dial..........and new kickdrum added. new filter just over took but not leaving its twin brother yet. dont really GRASP IT. 7600 minutes is like 2001-2004 classic anthems wrapped in one snickers bar, always satisfies, cant even grasp the filter from 10 minutes ago still ponging in the piece. 7700 minutes we are still in control is an understatement. 7900 minutes its like morning in ibiza sneaking in with a dirty girlfriend, 7934 beautiful breakdown at least 2 tracks once again breaking down to make whoopy. 801 minutes call hybrid again tell em to stick it. 8036666666666666666, such nasty 3rd track playing tickle face now. where it came from oh i dont know ask grand master Niko, have no idea, 8310 its like a new wave of madness trickling in, new kicks and such with old beats from 10 minutes ago, vocals slightly peeking through, can u say Indian instrument sounding nasty, horns of a new dawn, but how is it 8 tracks probably all die out, leaving 2 more tracks breaking down, vocal sickness just crept out the door, 8447, its like a soundtrack to the heavens, i have been dj'n a long time and never will even try this ableton thing, because this IS WHAT SPENDING YEARS TO LEARN IS ALL ABOUT, NOT EVEN COMPREHENDING HOW YOU COLLAB WITH SOMEONE AND THEY MAKE YOU SICK, 8559 seriously dont even grasp the new strings playing in now.

Heard this afterhours with Joe and had us tripping hard. Wont pretend to understand what it is you are doing with ableton but ive been in this scene for too long and alot here is familiar but bow enhanced and presented as a symphony. Thought it was the drugs last night but after playing through again Im just in awe of whats going on. You guys are from anorher planet im sure of it. this is proofenough for me of alien intrlligence. Thank you!

9700 its that warping bass with vocals still pushing, it makes you life when you here the keys flow in, because knowing niko and the sample that just flew in, this is like a minimum of 8 plus tracks, DONT ASK WHY HE DOESNT MAKE REMIXES FOR TOP ARTIST OR PRODUCTIONS, AND SINGLE HANDIDLY SMOKE THE COMP.........its the same damn principles.........99 winding down like a bad trip but still floating........9930 lets face it classic comedy, thats a complete pitch shift on that rythym.....THAT PEOPLE IS WASTELANDS, FROM KAMAYA PAINTERS, TOTALLY REVAMPED...almost like a face lift without the pain pills.......to follow...blissful reconstruction.....102 is another pitchhhhh bent vocal sampled remix out of this world......seriously niko is not getting paid by ableton....this is just as classic......people get on me why i dont crash techno conventions, just like i dont get why ableton dont pay this cat ahhaaha....104 change of the climates its like.......summer to fall, with spring still blooming flowers........105 play this at love parade and tell me what happens.....105 almost 106 tell me where that helicopter nasty came from......its like out of thin air nonsense...106-16. we are in control sample again, just letting you know that its all possible in magician and sorcery these days....Niko is utmost retarded. 107 going forward. well we got more classics just getting twisted like a biatccchchhhh. 109 simmer down piper time. going through 110 is seriously one of the funniest examples of a filter in history. lots of filters used sound cheese burger cheesy, this is like a meant to be done nastttttt. 110 20 is just got my whole head rocking and face smiling and laughing. 111 tell me where these 3 new tracks came from. lets ask Niko. freaking banana farmer stuff. 112 sounds like 1997 meets 2014 and beyond. 115 isssssssssssssssssss just a mad man showing off now. then 116 vocals coming from north south east and west. see at 118 and 119 i would normally say dont care for this vocal at all. but here's the thing, its re arranged and twisted into a formation to make fit into the journey. 122 sounds like a Randall rendition of sounds and beats, 124 125, gotta just listen to allow comment to take shape, sound speaks for itself. 125 into 126, go to ibiza late night i bet it depletes brain cells. 126 sounds like Randall is in the kitchen trying to cook breakfast. 127 coming into 127 37, is me bringing together multiple sections in an attempt to press decks to a point of possibilities, 128 is trying to hang with Niko.........129 is channels moving like an 80's pimp in DC. but nothing to what niko is doing but thats ok, there can only be one master. hahahah....130 groove is settling into an oblivion, 131 the edgy side of things making itself known. this is what happens when you mix it sideways, then niko takes it runs it through ableton..........that sounding like a freight train coming at yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa....stupid nuts...134 its like a train of nasty coming at ya......

right before 139 playing with the break beat, let me tease yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa, fade it away.......into yes a piano ensemble to say goodbye to the flipping most complex rendering of progressive music ever captured i believe, i tried like hell to hang with this beast , and by itself it fit well and flowed like a river bank, BUT THE REALIITY PEOPLE THIS ABLETON WIZADRY AND NIKO IS LIKE un describable...........this whole ending is a made up break by the master , and looping.........of a technical master mind.......it has been an honor to do this collab, this collab was funny because to join forces with someone that brings a sound thats done with ableton, and has the musical mind niko has, is almost embarrasing, i hav e been doing this stuff for 15 years, and know music and beats and decks and all the above, and work like hell to do what i do.....and have progressed huge i believe and proud of my accomplishments, but this guy is in another world and a whole nutha category..............seriously mindblowing....MOST PEOPLE WILL HEAR THIS AND THINK ITS JUST TRACKS.....the part thats mind blowing, its not...........its all manipulated skills...........my parts can hang.....on the surface but as far as reality.....are not even a breathing organism..............niko your the most impressive technician i know.....i know you don't like being called a dj....and thats a good thing.......but technician you are...and this is the epic showing of prog........EPICCCCCCCCC OF ALL EPICCCCCC... I know you complimented that people could not tell my parts from yours, and i appreciate....but i can tell and oh i can tellllllllllllll....hahahaha....i will never learn ableton and im ok with that.....i dont mind doing what i do.....and having someone that i can hear there sets and get sick....thats what a good day to me is all about hahahaa....J rans 2014
