Riccardo Rizza – Red Voyage
Selected by Caim
Released in December 2025 on Italian-based record label Clut Communications, Red Voyage delivers a sneaky, acid-tinged 90s trance vibe. The track opens with a minimalistic foundation, letting the groove breathe over an atmospheric pad, before unfolding slowly through subtle shifts that keep things interesting over time. As Caim puts it, “I love using this track for building up a set or taking a deeper dive. It will definitely stay in my record bag for a long time.”

Dylan Forbes – Searching
Selected by Caim
Released in 2022 on Haŵs, a UK-based progressive house label, this one is a proper dancefloor weapon. As Caim puts it, “I really love this producer from Ireland. He knows exactly how to use dreamy pads and lush synths in his tracks. Perfect for lifting your set to a higher level.” The groove is infectious and driving, with the bassline, synths and fx elements constantly evolving throughout, keeping the listener drawn in.

Gabriola – Ultravision Eclipse Mix
Selected by Caim
From the get-go, the tune feels like an ode to classic goa trance, encapsulated in a more modern look and feel. As Caim mentions, “This trippy tribal track on Magicwire has a beautiful journey of its own. I never mix it too fast because I really enjoy the long space it creates.” Gabriola is also co-head of the label Magicwire, who have put out some real gems within the trance and progressive space.

Selected by Caim
The second release from the Lirica White Series is a floor-ready EP from Italian producer and DJ Francesco Carvetta. It effortlessly flirts between house and techno with an interesting approach to sound design that feels nostalgic yet carries the polish of a modern production. As Caim puts it, “I already played this a few times in my sets. A great groover with a dirty acid bassline that keeps you moving. There is even more good acid on the vinyl EP. Definitely check it out.”

Dragoș Ilici – Chaga (Trance Mix)
Selected by Caim
Released on Romania-based Tonomat Records, this one sees the talented producer bring Romanian rhythms together with strong trancy vibes. As the label describes, the tune is a meditative blend of trance-laced techno. The tune carries haunting soundscapes effortlessly over a Romanian-inspired house/techno rhythm.

I honestly cannot choose.”
