For this week's vlog I sat down with DJ / producer Mark Sherry, to talk with him about the track "Operation Blade (Bass In The Place...)"; a hard trance / acid classic Mark did back in 2000 under the project name "Public Domain". You'll hear how the track was born, what happened after the release, some crazy stuff that happened on tour and much more!
And we spoke as well about Mark's debut artist album "Confirm Humanity", which is out now via Black Hole Recordings. And you will hear more about Gentech as well, which is a project from Mark together with Frank Zenker a.k.a. Scot Project!
Enjoy and thanks for watching!

@teky Год назад

hands down my favorite if i had to choose… never enjoyed music like his sets, he reignited the spark for me bringing back somewhat that hard trance sound but with tech-trance and it was a wrap! his selections of tracks and remixes / mashups are just above and beyond gold and jus about everytime he does a new track or remix / mashup it’s a track that makes ya say , wow he knows how to pick the good ones and do his magic when so… bless that man for he def showers audiophiles / tranceaddict / musical minions with nothing but musical magic. godspeed MARK!

@prestigious5s23 3 года назад

I did an engineering session with Mark many years back and remember asking him did he have any bad experiences at gigs. He didn't have much to say, except told me about when Operation Blade was at its peak, he was doing a DJ gig somewhere where his best moment of the night would be dropping that track because it was the one song everyone would be waiting to hear. Unfortunately the warm up DJ beat him to it as he dropped the track right at the end of his set before mark came on. It completely ruined his time to play it later in the night he said lol:D

@muzikxpress 3 года назад

Haha oops! I have a similar story with Solarstone. Several years ago I did join him to a trance classics show at the Matrixx in Nijmegen. The DJ who did perform just before Solarstone did end his set with “Seven Cities”... oops 😂🙈

The original was actually a remix of New Order's track called Confusion Construction

Amazing interview Twan :) I have another request Fire & Ice - Lost Emotions

@muzikxpress 5 лет назад

Thanks a lot! And tbh, I don't think that track would be interesting enough (for me) to make a vlog about. I pick classics / chart hits that have been hits or at least in the charts in several countries. I know this one is a trance classic, but not known enough for me to make a vlog about.

@kristoffscuba5466 4 года назад

Always wondered how much they'd paid to clear that sample, on the basis that the sample is the whole tune really. Wonder if the warp brothers had to pay for their rip off of the pump panel "melody" too, that formed the basis of Phat Bass. Remember how big both tracks were in the local clubs at the time.

@muzikxpress 4 года назад

According to Mark's reaction, it wasn't cheap haha

@mikemarino5762 3 года назад

Phatt Bass altered the melody whereas Operation Blade did not. Personally, I did not like the Public Domain track because it sounds off in certain places. The best version is Razor Blade by Domi Nation.

@davefilms345 4 года назад

Great interview, is there a version of operation blade with out the crowd in the background, like a studio version or is this what he mixed into it. Its as if he's released the live version.

@muzikxpress 4 года назад

Thank you! And I don't think there are versions without the live crowd sounds tbh.

@davefilms345 4 года назад

@@muzikxpress that's all cool, I'd of thought there would have been a studio version release. Amazing song anyway

@muzikxpress 4 года назад

What a fookn legend!! An absolute pioneer of the harder, trance sound. Does it all production wise, and unlike a lot of producers, myself included, can actually play the keyboard/ synth. A bloody top bloke too boot also, you can feel his passion for the scene coming through the interview. RESPECT!!! Album is awesome btw :)

@pryda001 5 лет назад

Hey man. I'd really love to hear the story behind Johnny Shaker - Pearl River. It was a huge track in the UK when it was released and is still one of my favourites!

@muzikxpress 5 лет назад

I have a few "rules" for interviews I do; - the track needs to be known in at least a few different countries; - it must be possible for me to interview the artist(s) / producer(s), so the must live near me or they must come to The Netherlands for a show / performance, since I don't have a travel budget - I need to know the track myself as well and like it, otherwise I don't think I should do an interview about it ;-) Since I don't know this track (from what I see it only came out in Germany and the UK back then) I don't see this happen, sorry, just being honest ;-)

@MissDolcenGabbana 5 лет назад

wow i just had to hear this track because of your comment. and it is truly amazing. didnt know Johnny Shaker is an alias of Three n’One... wow

@pryda001 5 лет назад

The vocal mix is absolutely superb! It's a real shame, as the track is huge in the UK and is considered one of the great trance classics

@muzikxpress 5 лет назад

@@pryda001 Oh I'm sure the track was huge in the UK, but as I wrote before, I want to do vlogs about tracks that have been big in several countries. I mean, i'm Dutch and I can easily do some vlogs about tracks that were big here, but not anywhere else. In that case I know those vlogs wont get as much views as normal vlogs and tbh it takes a lot of time to make a vlog, especially interviews. So I decided to only pick tracks that have been big in at least a few countries. And besides that, I don't know this track, which makes it harder to do a good vlog about it in my opinion. And last but not least, the guys that made this one don't live in The Netherlands and I don't see them touring a lot here as well ;-) Hope this explains why I make some "rules" for myself when I do interviews. But no worries, more to come! This week I did an interview with a Dutch producer who had a #1 in the UK Dance Charts somewhere in the 90s. And this track gets covered every once in a while still :)

@freeze84 3 года назад

it's just my humble opinion, but there is nothing special about the success of a release which contains almost the entirety of the original track as main sound.. that's why most people mistakenly think it's the original Blade OST.. I know it was made with license but it's more like new version of the original - 'Confusion Construction 2000'..

Close, but no, it is not that one. If you would have checked the vlog you would have heard the full story as explained by Mark Sherry ;-)

@BabylonCome 3 года назад

@@muzikxpress - Haha, I just had to listen to both tracks and yep you are right. However, Acid Ego uses the exact same 303 bassline but a 5th higher... Plus about another 10bpm in tempo... Still, those versions are timeless and while Mark's version is good, it does annoy me that not enough people know of the original versions
