Cafe del Main for Trance on Monday's

in Music3 years ago (edited)

Time to create some music vibes again - it is hard to keep track with all good content in our music community on Hive. Curating takes more time as I thought which is great - there still is room for more from my side. Other real life things kicking in also result in less posts I create around my (ok 1-2 years ago) original plan to write daily posts for different #musictags. But I am not complaining at all - good to see, even an undrvalued prizing, a lot is happeining on our chain that also keep me busy (just saying games such as Rabona and Splinterlands and DCity and much more).

Typo or what is Cafe del Main please?

A Frankfurt thing - German thing - "Main" is the River in Frankfurt, one of the two main Techno / Trance capitals of Germany where I spent most of my early music life. DJ Dag is one of my friends and pioneers of electronic music since ages - he lived with native Americans and created some cool global sound art as a result. Given he is now back at home he tried to "lend" some brand vibes from Ibiza in his "Cafe title" :-).

DJ Dag - again some background on this old fart like me

Fart but still killing the dance floors around Frankfurt. Dag did a lot of cool projects also in the US when he lived with the American Natives which resulted in one of his most successful commercial projects (with Jam el Mar). To me it is him and Sean V. who really paved the way for the generation after and made Techno / Friday a fun happening - bit different from the guys in Berlin. Listen to one of his recent live gigs.

About the Dag

“DJ DAG” is known as the "Godfather of Trance", he gave "the child's name" when he start in 1991 with his Project "Dance 2 Trance". Since that point, he was his definition of Trance always remained faithful. His sound is unique and its reputation is legendary. Dag's DJ career began in 1985 in the "Music Hall" in Frankfurt, other important milestones in his career were the "Club UK /Complex" in London, "1015 Folsom" in San Francisco, the legendary Underground Club "Omen", the "Dorian Gray", "U60311" and "Cocoon" in Frankfurt. All german attention he gained by his early sets at the "HR3 Clubnight", he belongs to their resident DJ´s since 1993. His international „breakthrough” came with the track "Power of American N.atives" (Gold Record Award), countless other productions and remixes with his projects, "Dance 2 Trance", "Peyote", "Crazy Malamute", "DJ Dag" and many more followed, since he produced with different partners on different labels, worldwide.

Dance2Trance - in different versions

I used to write about him and his tracks on Steemit and Hive, in addition I have played that song in and out at least 2,900 times now during my DJ career - this is a different version though - not too shabby. Followed by other sounds from his Dance2Trance projects in the following:
