With over 40 years in the music industry, composer, DJ, producer, and songwriter Paul Oakenfold has become one of the most indispensable talents of our time. Coined “UK’s #1 DJ, the British talent is gearing up for the upcoming release of his newest album Trance Mission. Due out Perfecto Records and Armada on June 20th, Trance Mission includes twelve cover versions of some of the biggest and most iconic dance records of all time including “Café Del Mar,” “Madagascar,” “Touch Me,” “Adagio for Strings,” and “Toca Me.”
Starting with a completely blank canvas, Paul locked himself in the studio for six months to work on this project, “This album is called Trance Mission – because its filled with a selection of my favorite trance records from the last 25 years and it’s been a bloody mission to finish.” Each classic has been remodeled to fit the sounds of today and whether you were a fan of these songs when they first came out or you’re hearing them for the first time, you’re sure to fall in love with the music (again), “…I’d like to think there’s something for every one of my fans – including those who see me as a trance DJ, those that see me more lined with house and those that know me for my background in film and score.”
In celebration of the album release, Paul Oakenfold and Jägermeister are teaming up to embark on a tour across North America, stopping at every major city from Los Angeles to New York before picking up in Europe by summer’s end. What can you expect at the show? “Let’s cut to the chase – f*ck the boundaries, f*ck genres and the f*ck rules and regulations. Your Mission is to just listen.” You heard the man – come join us on the dance floor as Disco Donnie Presents brings Paul Oakenfold to a city near you:
