2014/05/01 Down The Rabbit Hole Of Trance
π 2014-05-01 01:01 in Clubbing
I was listening to Armin's Essential Mix from 2013, another great one you can listen to many times :)

It starts with some movie bits from a Sci-Fi movie I didn't know, and that felt wrong :) I wrote down some of the lyrics so that I could look them up later:

Offset 2mn:

  • we are locked in the event horizon
  • Thank you smitty
  • stark give me a read
  • the reactor is still hot, we have several radiation leaks
  • do I have pressure?
  • there is no gravity, reactors are offline
  • brought most primary systems online
  • Offset 10mn:

  • brought most primary systems online, for now
  • stark, what's our status?
  • the antenna array is totally fried. We've got no radio, no laser, no high gain, no one is coming to help us
  • Offset 19mn:

  • She's all right, it's ok. You're safe now
  • Justin! Cooper!
  • They're fine, they're with us
  • Offset 28mn:

  • Look, if what the ... tells us is true, Othis ship has been on the boundaries of our universe of known scientific reality. Who knows where it's been, what it's seen, or what it's brought back with it
  • Offset 2h27:

  • I need to be on that ship
  • Once we secure the ship, we bring you on.
  • I'm sorry, this is unacceptable, I need to be on that ship.
  • Once we secure the ship, that's the way it is. I need you to guide us from the comm station, this is where I need you. Help us do our jobs.
  • I took note of the script bits, plugged them into google and of course it was a known Sci-Fi movie that someone went through the trouble of entirely hand transcribing, so my search was easy.
    The movie was Event Horizon, http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0119081/ , which was an enjoyable watch.

    But that wasn't the end of it, some lyrics in that ASOT were different:

  • At 43mn: Do you know what your problem is? You got nothing to do in your life. Why don't you get a job? Do something... be a nurse.
  • At 2h: We'd like to discuss something that if of interest to all of us here. You have a problem Tony, we have a problem.
  • That didn't take too long to trace to Scarface. I need to watch this again :)

    Last but not least, 1h24mn in,there was a nice quote which I could tell was from Morgan Friedman, and I traced it to Shawshank Redemption, which I had but apparently had never watched, so I watched that too. Great movie.
    "I look back at the way I was then... I young stupid kid that committed that terrible crime. I want to talk to him, I want to try to talk some sense to him, tell him the way things are...". Oh, and at the very end of the mix:

  • We just have to put it behind us... move on.
  • I'm done. Everything stops.
  • Nothing stops. Nothing...
  • Then, while watching Shawshank Redemption, I heard this other great piano tune I already knew, Thomas Newman - Brooks was here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YmjqO7DD14I
    Of course, I had heard it in other Trance mixes before, it's an awesome piano track. Interestingly, the track is called "Compass and Guns" in the movie soundtrack: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v04F8_sHLJk

    Here is the "original" trance track I had heard, which turns out was from solarstone: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l8hmA5ZIXDI
    And I found another very nice mix done by someone else: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B5Rfv4b1IQA

    So I went from trance to movie, which then brought me back to other trance, full circle. I like how it all pieces together, thanks to a few google searches :)
