"There is something very wonderful in music. Words are wonderful enough, but music is even more wonderful. It speaks to our hearts and spirits, to the very core and roots of our souls. Music soothes us, stirs us up, it puts noble feelings in us, it melts us to know not how. It is a language by itself; just as specific, in its way, as speech, as words. Just as divine. Just as blessed."

Charles Kingsley (1819-75) (from StillWind)

Neverrain Listeners,

After a long and intense December, I managed to pull together a set just in time to start off the new year. This month I am bringing you a thoroughly lush soundscape which builds on a foundation of tribal house, cuts through the upper eschelon of lo-fi electo, and finally crescendos into shimmering progressive trance. Veering from the dominant trance sound I've stuck close to for the past couple months, I think you'll find the change of pace rather refreshing.

Break out the headphones and enjoy the sounds of "Hydrogen".

1. Greed - "Lumiera" - Tomic Remix
2. Tomic - "Memories"
3. Tomic - "Groove"
4. Niaz Arca - "Tempted"
5. Fady Ferraye - "The Magic Theater"
6. Antix - "Little Honey"
7. D:Fuse vs. The Scumfrog - "Stereo + Video"
8. Vibrasphere - "102 Miles From here" - Jerome Isma-Ae Remix
9. Motion Drive- "Borderliner"
10. Freq - "Generator"
11. Blank & Jones, Martin Roth - "California Sunset" - Martin Roth And Blank & Jones Mash Up

Neverrain Listeners,

I have a lot of big things in the works this month, so I will be returning in January with a new mix. I apologize for the inconvenience, but I will definitely be back next month with a great set.

Neverrain Listeners,

My apologies for the wait this month. There's a lot going on this month that has me tied up, but I finally managed to steal some time away from my schedule to bring you a Neverrain set that I think you'll connect with.

Something about the change of seasons and the feeling of the Fall air does something to me creatively, so I decided to stray from the psy-trance sound that I've been focused on for the past couple months, and bring you a Neverrain set which goes back the basics: a wide variety of driving progressive house & trance that ranges from the mysterious to the epic. I think you'll find this mix very representative of my core style, and a very colorful blend of the progressive genres.

It is my pleasure to bring you "Prism". Enjoy the sounds.

1. Sertac Kaya - "Elusive" - Chris Conner & Juxy Remix
2. AMB - "Seka" - Francesco Pico Remix
3. PG2, David Ferrero- "The Forum of Love" - D-Formation Remix

11. Andy Moor, Markus Schulz - "Daydream" - Extended Mix

Neverrain Listeners,

I apologize for the late release of September's mix, but I have good reasons for the delay.

Last month, on August 23rd (My Birthday), surrounded by the white sands and crystal waters of the Gili Islands in Indonesia, I asked the love of my life to marry me.

Now you understand the reason behind titling my August mix "Engage". :)

Trying to plan a wedding and release my monthly set has proven to be a challenge, but I never want to let my listeners down. I managed to find some time in the chaos of things to put together a September mix that I think you'll enjoy.

And so, a little background:

Nearly 9 years ago, deep within a crowd of dancers, a very special girl saw me DJing behind the turntables in Los Angeles. All she knew about me, was that I was called "DJ Sunrise" and, from what she tells me, she felt the need to meet me.

A year or so later, a friend of mine set me up on a blind date with a girl whom he described as being "very similar to me". I was skeptical, but when I first saw her an amazing feeling came over me. I can't really describe it, other than to say that I couldn't feel my knees, a powerful energy seemed to be in the air, and some sort of inner voice was speaking to me.....

The voice said: "This Will be the One."

As it turns out, this girl happened to be the same girl in the crowd I was spinning for nearly a year earlier, the girl that was compelled to meet me. I've always thought that the Universe works in mysterious ways.....but this was pure evidence that there is very benevolent force, woven into the fabric of existence, which guides us toward Love.

The love of my life is a girl named Rachel Diamond; a talented photographer, a beautiful person, and a very rare and precious soul. Rachel is my everything.

You can experience her incredible talent at: www.RachelDiamondPhotography.com

Without further ado, I bring you the mix for September 2008: "Diamond".

And baby, if you're reading this, I dedicate the words in the last track to you.

Enjoy the sounds.

*Tracklisting:

1. Rocky - "Largetto" - Nox Remix
2. Odiseo - "Eh Noize"
3. Aquafeel - "Trust"
4. Nick Muir - "I Feel Real" - Mike Brin Remix
5. Odiseo - "Music Is The Answer"
6. Odiseo - "Let It Go"
7. Day Din - "Ghost" - Bitmonx & DJ Fabio Remix
8. Nok - "In Heaven With You" - Day.Din Remix
9. Quivver - "Digital Music" - Seth Vogt Remix
10. Quivver- "These Are The Days" - Sunset Remix

Neverrain Listeners,

I'm about to head off to the blue waters of Indonesia for the rest of the month, but before I go I wanted to leave you with some real ear-candy.

I can't really describe this month's set, other than to say that it launches with some rock-steady progressive house, turns left through massive walls of glass-shattering electro bass, then spirals upward into a dense field of liquid-chrome tech trance, and finally cuts loose into a sonic asteroid belt filled with glistening shards of interstellar psy-trance.

Hope this set gets your synapses firing.

Play it right: Play it LOUD.

This is "Engage". Enjoy the sounds.

*Tracklisting:

1. Patrick Seeker - "1st Second"
2. Aquafeel - "Turn On Your Ass"
3. Vaishiyas- "Sub Oscs"

Neverrain Listeners,

Neverrain Listeners,

I know I'm a tad late on releasing my mix this month, and I apologize to those of you who rely on a steady stream of Neverrain audio to keep you moving. Never fear, I managed to sneak this month's set into my crazy schedule somehow and hopefully it will satisfy your craving. This month's set is an hour of progressive material that I choose not to classify. I've become wary of trying to categorize my mixing style into certain genres, and so I will just say that it is an upbeat mix of great music that I hope will stimulate your mind and bring a smile to your face :)

And so I bring you "Xeno".

Enjoy the sounds.

Neverrain Listeners,

I am currently in the midst of moving my company (2Advanced Studios), as well as my audio operations, into a brand new facility that will mark the end of a 6 year period at our current location, and begin a new era for us in a building that is nearly 10 times as large.

The operation is quite intense as I am designing most of the interior furniture myself (an endeavor which I have never taken on before), as well as building a dedicated audio studio on the top level which will house a state of the art mixing platform in an entirely soundprooof custom-built audio booth.

All the work going to into the furniture design, the move, and setup of the audio studio has completely taken up my time for this month, and so I must inform you that the next Neverrain mix will be available in April of 2008. I hope to see you all back here next month, where I plan to have a special set ready to go for your listening pleasure.

Thank you for your understanding and continued support,

Eric Jordan

Neverrain Listeners,

This month I bring you a set with such complexity that it defies any genre, which is always my goal. This set brings everything from progressive house, to breaks, to trance, to orchestral ambience. It is an artistic journey to a threshold of events that I think will occur in the year 2012. I prefer not to preach my ideas about what I believe will happen in 2012, but I do wish to explore it through audio as an artist. As a researcher of the Mayan calendar system, the "I-ching", and other timekeeping methods of ancient civilizations, I can only state that I believe something profound will happen in the year 2012. Despite numerous claims that the world will end in 2012, I choose to believe that something far more profound will happen....and this is my "auditory painting" of that event (For a visual exploration of my interpretation of 2012, please refer to the paintings that exist at 2advanced.com). Let your imagination interpret what it will, and enjoy the sounds.

*Tracklisting:

1. Miika Kuisma - "Time to Fade"
2. Liquid Soul, System 7 - "Space Bird" - Liquid Soul Remix
3. Shawn Mitiska - "I Feel Lost" - Shawn Mitiska & Kevin Alves Deep Dub
