Excited to feature one of my favorite San Francisco DJ's Billy Casazza.

He is an international DJ and producer, host of Perspectives Digital podcast, and nominated as Best Progressive House DJ in 2016! Darin has released music on Perspectives, Katermukke, Sudbeat, Einmusika, Selador, Parquet, Warung, and collaborated with Hernan Cattaneo, Robert Babicz, Betoko, John Graham aka Quivver, Matt Lange, Matthew Dekay, Cid Inc, Omid 16B (S.O.S.), and Chris Fortier, among countless others.   I got to know Darin, while we both lived in Chicago, back in the mid 2000s. Darin now lives in Berlin, after an extensive stay in Los Angeles.  I am so excited to be able to feature him. He is talented, he is a super nice guy, and his production and remixes are top notch.  Lets show Darin some love by following his social media links while we enjoy his one hour set. Thanks again Darin for sharing your beats.

The final feature on the "ReV!S!T" segment is British based, London duo C-Sytems aka Starro and Aki. Just this last August, C-Systems released a single that was featured on Armin Van Buuren's "A State of Trance" show. The title of this track is "Time" with Hanna Finsen, on Raznitzan Music. If you are just tuning in, I am reposting about 15 mixes from the 2009-2010 era from a hard drive that I thought was long lost. The current podcast "Sound and Machine" used to be called "Chicago Tranceformation" as I was still living in Chicago at the time, and my DJ alias used to be "Zita Zie". The podcast host-platform went away, and the mixes with it too. I thought "oh-well" back then, but now years later, I have a greater appreciation how the music scene has evolved the last 11 years, and I think its only fair to give these old mixes a new life, instead of just letting them get lost in the internet void. In this segment: First Hour DJ mix - C-Systems Second Hour DJ mix - me as Zita Zie Thank you all for tuning in for this musical detour. Stay tuned for brand new material coming after October 1st, 2020 from the bass music and techno scene. Cheers!

The podcast host platform went away, and the mixes with it too. I thought "oh-well" back then, but now years later, I have a greater appreciation how the music scene has evolved the last 11 years, and I think its only fair to give these old mixes a new life, instead of just letting them get lost in the internet void under a special Sound and Machine segment called "ReV!S!T".

He has become a house hold name on the electronic music scene this last decade.  He has #1 charting Singles and #1 charting Albums across the globe which reminds us that Ashley is one of the top DJ's, sound engineers, and producers of our time.  I am so excited that back in 2010 he exclusively made a mix for Chicago Tranceformation, which is now called Sound and Machine Podcast.   For those who are just tuning in, I am reposting 15 mixes from the 2009-2010 era from a hard drive that I thought was long lost. The current podcast "Sound and Machine" used to be called "Chicago Tranceformation" as I was still living in Chicago at the time, and my DJ alias used to be "Zita Zie".

Hey all! Thanks for tuning in for another ReV!S!T episode. The music is coming from my hard drive that I thought I lost from the late 2000s, and recently found. Woot! Back in the day the predecessor of the current "Sound and Machine" podcast used to be called "Chicago Tranceformation" as I still lived in Chicago, and back then my DJ alias was "Zita Zie". This particular episode is featuring Scottish producer and DJ "Liquid Vision". His real name is Martin Newstead, whom I met back at the Miami Winter Music Conference in 2008. He is so talented and a very cool artist. His music has been supported by such big names as Armin Van Buuren, Paul Van Dyk, Paul Oakenfold, Markus Schulz & many more! Liquid Vision's music is taking up the first hour, then it is my turn to play the second hour in this segment.  Cheers! Zita

Hey all! Thanks for tuning in for another ReV!S!T episode. The music is coming from my hard drive that I thought I lost from the late 2000s, and recently found. Woot! Today's mix is CRAZY!!!! I cannot believe I did this back then but it happened. Its going to be a 4 HOUR MARATHON featuring 3 GUEST DJs: Jon Swink (Cleveland) , Pete Gil aka Gato Gil (Chicago), Jason LeMaitre (Seattle). The fourth hour is me throwing it down.  Back in the day, the predecessor of the current "Sound and Machine" podcast used to be called "Chicago Tranceformation" as I still lived in Chicago, and back then my DJ alias was "Zita Zie". As time went by, life changed, styles changed, and as an artist I have grown and evolved. I am so excited to share glimpses of Chicago's nightlife from the 2009-2010 era.  Cheers! Zita

Finding such great joy re-featuring episodes from my first ever podcast running during late 2000s. It was called Chicago Tranceformation, and at that time I still lived in Chicago, and DJ'd under the name "Zita Zie". I recently found a hard drive thought long lost, and OMG it has a bunch of exclusive mixes that would be a sin not to share. =D In this episode, Scuba K is the guest artist, playing the 1st hour, and then I got the second hour. Enjoy the time travel back to the 2009 dance floors!
