Trance-ition

For folks wondering if this is my latest attempt to spread my love of trance...
You can put your thoughts to rest since although this blog does have a trace of my love for Trance, read on to realize that it’s something different as well.

Experiencing 'transitions’, is living life to the fullest for without it, we may never know what all we have gained or lost in this completely insane life.
Transition is one quality which helps us enjoy life as it is today. It is the game of Time, wherein, we living beings become the actors / supporting roles or just mere props to form a story.
This game of time is what we call Life and we "try" living it every day, every moment, but not sure if all the "trying" is really worth it.


Life in the urban setting -- Urban Life as we know it-- has so many transitions of moods involved in just 24hours. We hardly ever realize it or even take the time to think/contemplate about it, or it can be the lack of patience in these fast paced times. Transitions of moods range from happiness to frustration, if you are a working employee/housewife; calm mind to a tension prevailed one if you are a student/Boss.

The ease at which the transition takes place is marvelous, we may never be able to trace back those actions or words which led to the transition of our moods, but all we would know would be that either our day was made or we lost it altogether !
A simple instance of transition of moods in a short period is captured here :
Few close friends get together after a long time and happily start discussing each others lives and as the conversation progresses to some serious topics we see that the smiles fade away and tensions creeps in. The conversation almost comes to a point of saturation with mixed emotions within the group until one person cracks it up, bringing happiness to everyone’s faces.
Transition, especially which includes human emotions, can become one of the finest transitions to capture, both in form of words and pictures. As we grow we understand that both materials and emotions look all good at a bird’s eye view, but it’s only when you start digging deeper you realize the real essence of life. At this juncture, I would like to dedicate/share with my friend Neeraj Bheeman:
“Tragedy of life: Bad times are forgotten at the end of a relationship and just the good times stay to torment the soul..."

This blog was written while I was traveling and had "Time" in abundance just like the thoughts in a feminine mind. As I  was completing the journey back to Bangalore, I could not resist accepting the fact that time had the power to enhance a life when invested in wisely, while at the same time it could create havoc if ignored or not respected...

The best feeling of transition I’ve experienced is through music, especially Trance, where track after track is played to form a Set and it does require an ear for detail to understand where exactly the switch was made between the tracks.
Just as I mentioned above, minute by minute, nothing changes; in relation to music, beat by beat, nothing changes, but after some time it becomes a beautiful track and then, an entire set is made with a collection of beautiful tracks.

Time is there to help you in many ways, but have you given ‘Time’, enough time or a chance to help you??
If not, then make time, b‘cos the clock is always ticking away my friend. Do what your heart says. It is not about the next five years, but it is about the last 5 years of life.
Make a difference to yourself.

  1. Trance-ition:
    noun:the state of mind in which, the deeper, unearthed thoughts lying within you surfaces and its faced..but with a smile on your face.
    Life as it seems is never ending, but not ever lasting. The choices you make and the path you choose is what makes 'You'. Friends are not a bunch of people with whom we share a pint and laugh out loud and depart to our ways, but they are those individuals,with whom we share a part of our life, our invaluable time. Anyone can make you laugh out like crazy, but only a friend can make you smile.
    We may spend 10 to 11 hrs of our time, in a day in front of 21' screen or a big fat lump of pages, or speaking to people over the cellphone and trying to convince them as to why your company/Firm is better than your other counterparts and all..but that is not what we will be doing for the rest of our life. What we will be doing is create some more memories every single second so that when we turn back and have a look at our path, we will have a breath of contentment and a memory line to phase thru..
    For many the genre of music called 'Trance' is just another form of electro/noise/club song etcetera.. but for few, its more than just music ..its a form of life.. Its a way to shed out the unuttered feelings for some and a way to talk to oneself for others and a way to utopia for some and a way to relax for few..And i am privileged to be one among st those 'few'. Its more than just music, its a journey.
    And along this path, i am happy to have found few more "few's" with me-Anish,abhi,neeraj,prasad. Cheers bois! :)
