Thanks to my meddling and knowing the right people, I have gotten bLiNd and Leifo (under their secret collaborative alias Vega Projekt) playlisted by international DJ Ferry Corsten. Their track, "The First Day" was played today on Ferry Corsten's new radio show. Their track will most likely be signed under Ferry Corsten's Flash Recordings label as well due to Ferry's high interest in the track. Since the track is most likely in limbo right now in the middle of talks about being signed, it is assumed that I will not leak this track nor should you ask them to send the track to you out of respect (Though if anyone keeps track of my DJ sets, I will probably be playing it sometime soon). Can this get a sticky? I'm really excited for bLiNd and Leifo. Their hard work has brought them far and I believe that the people here who recognize their talent should know about this awesome accomplishment. Congratulations, guys!
If you guys can, please register an account at Ferry's forums. This way you can vote for the Vega Projekt tune on the Corsten's Countdown page! Show your support for our guys!

This could be big.
I knew blind had the talent way back when, now maybe it will get recognized.
Ferrys a cool guy. He knows good when he listens to it.

WOW. I actually heard this track awhile back and it's been on my iPod (only on my iPod) ever since... SO good. blind/leifo deserve a deal. Plus y'all can look forward to two, possibly three, tracks from them on the upcoming FF7 project.
Congrats!

I think that's just fantastic :) Great things seem to be happening for lots of OCR peeps lately.
All well deserved I'm sure :)

Do/can you do this for any track you think is good enough?

That's awesome, but uh....For the life of me, I can't find a link to the stream on either of those sites..If we could get a direct link, I am sure we would all listen when it's on.
Does anyone record the streams, though? In case some of us missed it? It's almost 9PM here (EST), which means it's almost 8PM CET...

Probably... however it won't be that easy. bLiNd will tell you that I am one tough cookie when it comes to this stuff. Hell, I was even a bitch about quality even when he sent me stuff to listen to. I have to be really wowed by the track first if anything. If I am willing to playlist you in a DJ set of mine, then you just might have hope to go further.
As for the radio show, I have a rip of the whole thing... I can upload it later if you guys want.

Hmm, I just voted and listened to the actual radio show... did anyone notice that Corsten said "the next track is Vega Projekt - The First Day" AFTER he played that track? Or did I not hear him?

This is fantastic news for the OC scene. I am an avid follower of bLiNd and Leifo's efforts and with Ferry Corsten to discover them, only means good things to come for them. Who knows, they may even be featured in a FabricLive mix CD in the future. Next stop Ibiza?

He's sorta confusing if you don't know how he does his show but he says what's playing AFTER it is played. It's like appending the track list after each track. Also his English isn't 100% there, I guess.
Nice work! Congratulations you guys! Just influences me more to work hard at musicianship.

Yeah, except for the Fatboy track for example, he definitely said what it was several minutes before it ended. For blind's, he only said the name after it was over, and then he said it was the next track. That's why I'm worried :( He messed up.

Don't worry. The track Hurricane that came right after The First Day is a classic that most of us trance-heads know like the back of our hand. It seems like a big mistake but people can figure that out, no problem. ^_^

Hey! Thanks for all your support guys :) I appreciate the kind compliments and votes. We actually have A LOT of good tracks underway for Vega Projekt. Big thanks to Wu for pushing me on and hooking the goods up. The First Day is actually the only standard trance song we have done (with 1 other for a possible b-side) The rest are progressive. More of a house flavor with trance elements. Keep your eyes out for Vega Projekt as well as TONS of new remixes i have underwraps for OCR. Probably a good 7 remixes ive finished/finishing that no one has heard yet. ;)

shit, new music from blind? i'm not kidding when i say he was my main influence when i started mixing - i wanted to write music like him. his Extreme-G mix was one of my favorite tracks for YEARS. i don't do as much trance anymore, but blind's still one of my favorite artists to listen to in the genre.

Grats to bLiNd and Leifo on the success of the new track - it's been a while since I've heard anything from you guys. Also, I extend my thanks G-T for making new mixes. I was curious what he would do after "UnMod Sessions" now that there is no UnMod.
