Music

I'm a big fan of trance, progressive, house, ambient and lounge, not necessarily in that order. Under broad classification these collapse to trance and lounge.
Below you'll find a list of some of my favorite mixes.

As far as DJs, my current interest spans ATB, Markus Schulz, DJ River, Sasha, Blank & Jones and Armin van Buuren.

DI.fm is an online radio station that plays excellent electronic music, and they're dirt cheap if you want to subscribe to the 192kbps streams.


Lounge:

DJ River has several colored room sessions which are excellent for a chillout party and are available for download through his website here.

Direct links to colored room series:

Blank & Jones (i.e. Piet Blank and Jaspa Jones) have three really good lounge albums.

Trance:

Markus Schulz
rules in Trance. He produces deep/dark tracks with abundant strings that are very unique compared to mainstream trance. Good compilations available for purchase on 2 CD sets are:
Armin van Buuren is pretty good, but the music has a tendency to lean toward Techno most of the time. Couple of really good albums from him are:

DJ River also has trance/progressive compilations called the 'R' Sessions available for download. My favorite is the Resolver.
