What a night the 18:04:25 was 😮

The first time I ever laid my hands on a deck was 4 years ago. I spent countless hours In-between work shifts figuring out what each button on the controller meant. I learned how to beat match through trial and error. I fucked up SO MANY TIMES at open deck nights you wouldn’t believe it. I wiped my USB more than once. I got frustrated at times as to why I couldn’t do ‘X’ or ‘Y’…but…I persevered and held onto the vision, knowing that one day it could happen.

Just 4 years later I’ve shared the stage with an absolutely insane line-up of Legends in the trance and dance scene including @giuseppeottaviani @craig_connelly @bryankearney @paulvandyk @alessandraronconeofficial @joc81 @alexmorph @rubenderonde @fariusmusic @amosriotnight @lisapinupofficial I can’t tell you how incredible it feels to look back at your life and know you’ve achieved what you set out to do, even when it seemed ‘impossible’ at one point.

I couldn’t have done this without the help of the incredible Trance community we have. From the promoters who do it all behind the scenes (you wouldn’t believe what this lot actually do 😂) to the trance fans who turn up, rain or shine to show their love and support. Each and every performance is unique and a gift to you all with the best I have at that time.

Next step is Production, to join the legends up there by bringing you the magic I hear between my ears when I sit down at the laptop to the sound waves on the Trance floor.

Where do we go from here…who knows, one things for sure though…I’m not slowing down now.

Thank you all for your continued support, it means the world to me and you know I won’t forget it 😉

LETS GOOOOO!!!!!! ❤️🫶🏻

Yours in Trance,

Love the kick and bass in this track for 2 reasons:
1. It DELIVERS
2. It carries the melody perfectly

It also sits in the ‘mid range’ of tracks I play so it’s a perfect way to transition from Progressive to Uplifting, Hard or any other genre of Trance I’ve got on the cards.

Absolutely living my best life! 😂

Massive thank you for all the team at @more_trance for letting me close their event the other week with a Hard Trance set.

As you can see by the look on my face…I LOVED EVERY SECOND OF IT!

Thank you to everyone who stayed until the end and gave it their all on the Trance Floor.

Aside from my fitness career, I’ve never felt like I was more out on this earth to do something as I am bringing Trance to the world!

I’m in absolute euphoria every time I step onto that stage. The way I feel. The way the music makes me feel. The way the crowd make me feel. Everything about it, I can’t get enough!

I also want to take time in this post to thank everyone who’s been a part of my rise on the scene as I couldn’t have done this without you. There’s too many to mention, but friends, fans, open deck night organisers, people I’ve met at festivals and became friends with, event hosts/managers and DJs who’ve helped me along the way, thank you all!

One of the greatest blessings the Universe has ever bestowed upon me was the gift of Trance music. So here’s to another amazing year of trance in 2025!

LETS GOOOOO!!!!!

Much Love,
NEXUM ❤️

CMX FITNESS: Team Workout #4

One for our runners out there! This one was taken from a challenge I seen in the very first series of The Ultimate Fighter.

Start at the speed shown and run for the time shown. Repeat this, speeding up the runs every time.

This one gets tough on the lungs and the legs, but doesn’t half get a sweat on!

Tag me in your vids warriors and let me know how you get on. What level can you reach?

Yours in Strength,
Coach Craig

The FILTHIEST EDM Riff in History?

Aside from INSOMNIA by @faithlessofficial, has anything even come close since?

If you’ve heard it before, as soon as you hear that first Key Stroke, the hands are going up! If it’s your first time hearing it, as soon as you hear that first Key Stroke…THE HANDS ARE GOING UP! 😂

One of my all time favourite Rave tunes this, do you agree or what beats it for you?

Massive shoutout to @dahool_music for producing such a LEGENDARY anthem for us all to enjoy! 😉
