Neverrain Listeners,

It's been a long time coming. We've traveled far together...through parallel dimensions, across vast distances made of sound and light, and into the very core of the universe.

This will be our final journey together on Neverrain.

Since 2005 I've released over 40 free mixes. It has required an enormous amount of time, energy, money, and creativity to put together the monthly sets, and I hope that every one of my listeners have been able to walk away with something special.

I have tried to infuse a little bit of my hope & optimism for the human species into each and every minute of music, amidst the deafening chaos of our reality: economic turmoil, environmental destruction, and war. At times we appear to be lost...driven far off course by materialism, incompetent governments, and cultural misunderstandings. We are a species lashing out in the darkness, in a final attempt to try and save ourselves from our own destruction.

The answer to our suffering lies within. The key to our transformation is ourselves. If only we could manage to change our ways, to expand our understanding of the universe, to achieve higher states of consciousness, to regain control of the ship, and steer ourselves back on course....we might be able to fulfill the destiny that we suspect awaits for us. This continues to be my wish, and I believe that music can bring us closer to this transformation.

I want to thank everyone for supporting Neverrain over the past 4 years. Your dedication and feedback have kept me going strong. Although this will be my final Neverrain set, I will continue to DJ live events and produce music. In fact, there may be a CD release at some point in the future.

My desire now is to devote more time to my family, my career, and future artistic endeavors. The energy I put into Neverrain is not gone, it is merely being transmuted into another form. You haven't seen the last of me by a long shot.

Godspeed,
Eric Jordan

"There is something very wonderful in music. Words are wonderful enough, but music is even more wonderful. It speaks to our hearts and spirits, to the very core and roots of our souls. Music soothes us, stirs us up, it puts noble feelings in us, it melts us to know not how. It is a language by itself; just as specific, in its way, as speech, as words. Just as divine. Just as blessed."

Neverrain Listeners,

After a long and intense December, I managed to pull together a set just in time to start off the new year. This month I am bringing you a thoroughly lush soundscape which builds on a foundation of tribal house, cuts through the upper eschelon of lo-fi electo, and finally crescendos into shimmering progressive trance. Veering from the dominant trance sound I've stuck close to for the past couple months, I think you'll find the change of pace rather refreshing.

Break out the headphones and enjoy the sounds of "Hydrogen".

1. Greed - "Lumiera" - Tomic Remix

4. Niaz Arca - "Tempted"

I have a lot of big things in the works this month, so I will be returning in January with a new mix. I apologize for the inconvenience, but I will definitely be back next month with a great set.

Neverrain Listeners,

My apologies for the wait this month. There's a lot going on this month that has me tied up, but I finally managed to steal some time away from my schedule to bring you a Neverrain set that I think you'll connect with.

Something about the change of seasons and the feeling of the Fall air does something to me creatively, so I decided to stray from the psy-trance sound that I've been focused on for the past couple months, and bring you a Neverrain set which goes back the basics: a wide variety of driving progressive house & trance that ranges from the mysterious to the epic. I think you'll find this mix very representative of my core style, and a very colorful blend of the progressive genres.

It is my pleasure to bring you "Prism". Enjoy the sounds.

10. Colors, De Loren - "Nanga" - Julez Remix
11. Andy Moor, Markus Schulz - "Daydream" - Extended Mix

I apologize for the late release of September's mix, but I have good reasons for the delay.

Last month, on August 23rd (My Birthday), surrounded by the white sands and crystal waters of the Gili Islands in Indonesia, I asked the love of my life to marry me.

Now you understand the reason behind titling my August mix "Engage". :)

Trying to plan a wedding and release my monthly set has proven to be a challenge, but I never want to let my listeners down. I managed to find some time in the chaos of things to put together a September mix that I think you'll enjoy.

And so, a little background:

Nearly 9 years ago, deep within a crowd of dancers, a very special girl saw me DJing behind the turntables in Los Angeles. All she knew about me, was that I was called "DJ Sunrise" and, from what she tells me, she felt the need to meet me.

A year or so later, a friend of mine set me up on a blind date with a girl whom he described as being "very similar to me". I was skeptical, but when I first saw her an amazing feeling came over me. I can't really describe it, other than to say that I couldn't feel my knees, a powerful energy seemed to be in the air, and some sort of inner voice was speaking to me.....

The voice said: "This Will be the One."

As it turns out, this girl happened to be the same girl in the crowd I was spinning for nearly a year earlier, the girl that was compelled to meet me. I've always thought that the Universe works in mysterious ways.....but this was pure evidence that there is very benevolent force, woven into the fabric of existence, which guides us toward Love.

The love of my life is a girl named Rachel Diamond; a talented photographer, a beautiful person, and a very rare and precious soul. Rachel is my everything.

You can experience her incredible talent at: www.RachelDiamondPhotography.com

Without further ado, I bring you the mix for September 2008: "Diamond".

And baby, if you're reading this, I dedicate the words in the last track to you.

Enjoy the sounds.

*Tracklisting:

1. Rocky - "Largetto" - Nox Remix

I'm about to head off to the blue waters of Indonesia for the rest of the month, but before I go I wanted to leave you with some real ear-candy.

I can't really describe this month's set, other than to say that it launches with some rock-steady progressive house, turns left through massive walls of glass-shattering electro bass, then spirals upward into a dense field of liquid-chrome tech trance, and finally cuts loose into a sonic asteroid belt filled with glistening shards of interstellar psy-trance.

Hope this set gets your synapses firing.

Play it right: Play it LOUD.

This is "Engage". Enjoy the sounds.

Become the sound.

I know I'm a tad late on releasing my mix this month, and I apologize to those of you who rely on a steady stream of Neverrain audio to keep you moving. Never fear, I managed to sneak this month's set into my crazy schedule somehow and hopefully it will satisfy your craving. This month's set is an hour of progressive material that I choose not to classify. I've become wary of trying to categorize my mixing style into certain genres, and so I will just say that it is an upbeat mix of great music that I hope will stimulate your mind and bring a smile to your face :)

And so I bring you "Xeno".

Enjoy the sounds.
