Hey guys, THIS IS THE ARTIST OF THIS TRACK HERE. In other words, I'm Mitchell Claxton, since one of you made a snide remark, and then continued to make a nice comment on the song itself. But i just wanted to remind you guys to like my FB fan page, since I'm not THAT active on youtube (but i'll try to be!). This way you can keep up to date on my releases, DJ sets and gig dates (mainly around calgary, vancouver) Link is in the description of this vid :) Thanks for all of your kind comments!!
Monstercat never stopped uploading Trance. The supply is just short. I'm the only artist on Monstercat who constantly makes Trance. I'm working on getting more trance on Monstercat but it's hard to get people who M-Cat like. Next Trance release is April 5th, by me. It's very different from Koh Samui but i hope you'll like it. Afterwards, i might have some new Trance for Monstercat as well. Just gotta give me more time. I don't work as fast as some other producers. M-Cat DO want more Trance
Koh Samui is now 10 years old! Mitchell Claxton’s debut track as well…talk about a severely underrated artist! This guy made some of the best Trance on Monstercat! This is still good in 2022!
Now this is what you call Trance. It is up there in terms of quality alongside some of the best trance of all time because it is so well structured and sounds simply sublime. One of my favourite Trance tracks of all time
literally a year ago. and it was wonderful. just wonderful. this track was inspired by the experiences i had in my limited time there. including watching a lightning storm happening out at sea at night whilst i sat on the beach. was just incredible. and ziplining through the trees there was also incredible.
2 years on my playlist playing over and over again. I have listened alot of trance, since late 90' when I was only a young boy, but when this came out I fell in love with it like never b4. This song is trance at its finest. Thank you so much.
This has to be one of my favorite trance pieces ever. That 5.5-minute buildup is godly, as are all of the motifs, and I love the sprinkling of hardstyle elements.
You bring up one of the most difficult issues that an average EDM listener has when first transitioning into the trance sub-genre. Many people are impatient or don't find the buildup as engaging as the release of all the energy. I personally enjoy trance for the long adventure that a song can bring you on, such as this one.
They're just ungrateful :( This is trance at its finest though! Whenever I run to this song early in the morning it gets me pumped! It's just full of energy!
At first I was a little surprised when I read that this track was going to combine trance and hardstyle elements. I was kind of skeptical, but this is really great.
Compared to things like Laguna and Trance Chords (yes, Trance Chords) I kinda like this song. It really puts the energetic part of Trance forward, something that's a big element but you hardly ever hear.
I haven't really ever cared for Trance. More of a Dubstep/Drumstep kinda guy myself. But this song has made me get into Trance/house, etc.. so much more. Thanks a lot for opening my eys.
Azure Onyxscore I'm into both Their older music is really cool along with their current songs Though I think I prefer the modern stuff I still love these older gems
The hardstyle is eliminating the trance flavor, why would you start the song with the thump thump, it's gotta be gradually introduced, not thrown at me! Ah, but at 1:52, you can hear what's coming at 2:17, but very quietly, nicely done.
Monstercat are all about helping young producers grow. Since trance is an old style of music and not many aspiring DJ's are making it anymore, monstercat have no material to upload
she did write some lyrics but i wasn't feeling them. i credited her because she wrotes some cool stuff and did some sick harmonies that made it into the track. so i felt she was almost like a co-writer on the track itself.
Welcome to the family Mitchell! It's great to hear a new sound that extends beyond genres! I subbed to your utube and liked ur FB page, hope more monsterkittens follow suit!
hey guys, just wanted to thank you all for the kind comments!!! means the world to me. one of the best things i could ask for on my birthday long weekend!!
While you're comment still stands here, might I say that you're in my opinion an ABSOLUTE GENIOUS?! Both for the tunes, and the fact that you thought up a way to mix these genre's in such a beautiful way. Cause really, this track alone has me hooked, and I'd love to see what more you can bring with the next release here on monstercat ^.^

9 minutes of beautifully composed music right here. Mitchell Claxton Sir, you always hit the sweet spot.

Good Times
Plz come back
Years later this is still my favorite Hard Trance song. It's a shame there's so few songs in the sub-genre.
Just found this today. Holy shit balls I have missed this for 8 years? This is just amazing.
Koh Samui is now 10 years old! Mitchell Claxton’s debut track as well…talk about a severely underrated artist! This guy made some of the best Trance on Monstercat! This is still good in 2022!
the build up to the drop at 5:29 has to be one of the best ever heard in trance music
Monstercat needs more Trance imo.
u got ur wish :)
+Broekn Record by more, I think he meant MOAR
We need more Mitchell Claxton on Monstercat :)
Amen, brother.
YEE!
True his trance is the biggest work of art since mona lisa
Ian Burningham trance and dubstep are my 2 favorite genres on monstercat. i agree.
Ian Burningham He left Monstercat.
Now this is what you call Trance. It is up there in terms of quality alongside some of the best trance of all time because it is so well structured and sounds simply sublime. One of my favourite Trance tracks of all time
Liam Piper So this is still getting listened to?
Comment Guy because it is awesome
literally a year ago. and it was wonderful. just wonderful.
this track was inspired by the experiences i had in my limited time there. including watching a lightning storm happening out at sea at night whilst i sat on the beach.
was just incredible. and ziplining through the trees there was also incredible.
Once again a fantastic addition to the Monstercat family!
I miss Mitchell Claxton very much. I wish it came back soon and a song that exceeds 10:00 minutes would come out. 💙
Dude look its in 009 and its 9:00
you should get a lot of these old songs remastered, these were pro status back then
guess your right, maybe one of the artist saw though, you never know
If only Trance was released more :(
Exactly!
Promethium45 A Trance song was just released, your wish was granted! ;)
Polectro Music true, but it didn't really feel like trance
Atte Backman
Au5 never really feels like anything, just somewhat awesome :D
I like Crossroad :) but totally agree, i start liking Trance, too^^
theTahnoktrapper Polectro Music It kinda felt like electro or something like that... :(
2 years on my playlist playing over and over again. I have listened alot of trance, since late 90' when I was only a young boy, but when this came out I fell in love with it like never b4. This song is trance at its finest. Thank you so much.
i smiled when found this track accidentally ,i remembered everything,my childhood and old monstercat family;)
Mitchell Claxton.... I love this guy. This song brought tears. Now I've gotta go wrestle a bear and get it back.
Trance makes me feel like I could live forever
If anything the intro is a song all in itself, I think. Two songs in one? Thank you sir!
thanks man! that's what i needed to hear! :D
This is real Trance and its so good, it captivates
Absolade Owns It it captivates
*hardstyle kicks come in*
We Need a Mitchell release soon.
Fr
You bet.
Mitchell Claxton - Dive (released 11/10)
McJackson Fwouper He left Monstercat.
TheGamerBuddy You don't have to say that on EVERY comment...
well i appreciate that! more to come! across other monstercat genres as well. gonna work on some stuff
This is REAL Trance Music, thank you Mitchell Claxton, thank you Monstercat!
hardstyle kick in it is actually really good =D
I remember listening to this in grade 5. I'm now in grade 12, and I'm back for more. TRANCE LOVE.
grade 5 to 12 is a 7 year difference, this song was uploaded in 2012.
??????????????
So, either your memory is failing you or you skipped a couple grades
How’s grade 16 going?
wow... been so long since the last trance track on monstercat... I guess I could give trance a go... for the first time in about 2 years... o.o
One of the most intense trance tracks out there.
This has to be one of my favorite trance pieces ever. That 5.5-minute buildup is godly, as are all of the motifs, and I love the sprinkling of hardstyle elements.
Listening to this just before going to bed is probably the best idea ever.

I had this in my playlist for 3 years without a track name. Why does life have to be so unfair.
I completely agree with you, the preview is addictive and Mitchell Claxton is the epitome of perfection :D
They're just ungrateful :( This is trance at its finest though! Whenever I run to this song early in the morning it gets me pumped! It's just full of energy!
I am in love with Trance! Greatest tunes.
Thank you Framed.
At first I was a little surprised when I read that this track was going to combine trance and hardstyle elements.
I was kind of skeptical, but this is really great.
Wuxia > Koh Samui > masterpiece > Fire Vortex
phenomenal trance, holy shit its so good
Fire Vortex is a masterpiece too imo
fire vortex 🔥
Didn't know monstercat even did trance! nevermind, just makes a great channel epic....
I just realized this song is 9 minutes long! :o
trust me when I say that there are a lot of Trance songs that are actually longer than this lol.
IMO this is the most underrated song
No the most underrated but also the most awesome Songs are Eternity and Essence from Direct.
Raphael Gomi see IMO? That means "in my opinion" so I am not wrong and you are not right.
Mitchell, this was my favorite track on the whole reunion album, it's just that good. Your talented man, keep it up!
Thanks Aleks
my bestie showed me monstercat.......this is rthe best music ive ever heard!!!!!!!!!
Framed brought me here 3:53
Congratulations, you have now produced the longest song on Monstercat.
Compared to things like Laguna and Trance Chords (yes, Trance Chords) I kinda like this song. It really puts the energetic part of Trance forward, something that's a big element but you hardly ever hear.
thanks man! i shall definitely keep it up
lol I was on vacation on Koh Samui, Thailand last winter ^^
Pretty wicked eh? Def left an impression on me as you may have noticed
***** No, just discovered it a year after :s
Mitchell Claxton When you coming back?
Was it cold?
I haven't really ever cared for Trance. More of a Dubstep/Drumstep kinda guy myself. But this song has made me get into Trance/house, etc.. so much more. Thanks a lot for opening my eys.
Aron dancing
Dear Monstercat,
PLEASE find more trance like this, its really good.
I'm not really into modern Monstercat. That's why I listen to their older music
same same
Azure Onyxscore
I'm into both
Their older music is really cool along with their current songs
Though I think I prefer the modern stuff
I still love these older gems
Super smae
Same lol
modern (4 years ago)
Really nice first on Monstercat, Mr. Claxton. Really cannot wait to hear more from you!
Even though it’s nine minutes, I wish it was longer.
Uplifting trance has a place on Monstercat
Uplifting trance is the best
The hardstyle is eliminating the trance flavor, why would you start the song with the thump thump, it's gotta be gradually introduced, not thrown at me!
Ah, but at 1:52, you can hear what's coming at 2:17, but very quietly, nicely done.
Bussy
Pretty much all Trance starts with a "thump thump"
I'm used to it
Starfall Glimmer Radio Edits sometimes start in the break...
Wtf do u mean, so what it has that. Who cares just like it or not like it. This song is quite legendary there is nothing wrong with it.
Because of being easy to mix and beatmatch for DJ's.
It was replying angrily to Mitchell Claxton's comment thanking people and announcing about a new release or something.
Lol what the hell 3:28 to 3:35
Is she saying "I seeeee... Hutch"
yea I think so
"I see...(that)... Hutch... will come here and use this for an outro.
Hush :P
"Listen" "Hush"
Monstercat are all about helping young producers grow. Since trance is an old style of music and not many aspiring DJ's are making it anymore, monstercat have no material to upload
did Angie Coombes even have any proper vocals in this whole song besides the background ''ahhhhhing''
she did write some lyrics but i wasn't feeling them. i credited her because she wrotes some cool stuff and did some sick harmonies that made it into the track. so i felt she was almost like a co-writer on the track itself.
Mitchell Claxton oh, alright but it's still a good soundtrack either way
+Mitchell Claxton It would be dope if you came back to Monstercat man
Mitchell Claxton
Pleaaaase come back
I love you, man
Your songs are sooooo good
It would be so nice to have a trance artist on Monstercat
Starfall Glimmer On Wuxia i read comments that he did actually submit some tracks for the newer albums but they got rejected
Nice, trance with a few hardstyle kicks (like at 1:20) mixed in.
I like it.
is more like hard trance ._.
It is...
It sounds like mix of trance and hardstyle :)
Nobs4lyfe
cristianv2 Awesome but disguisting in British!
2017!!!!!! And here I am still listening.
9 minutes and 10 seconds of goose bumps!!!
Longest song ever released by Monstercat did you know?
Not exactly, Mitchell Claxton's Wuxia beats this one by 38 seconds. BAM TECHNICALITY
Oh :P
XBOX360WiiPlayer
XBOX360WiiPlayer you a gamer?
Michael Murphy That's what I set my channel up as when I made it, but I don't really post videos about gaming much/often.
***** That's a mix. not a song.
this song is just amazing one of the good ones i havent really heard in a while thank you for this wonderful music monstercat!
Almost 6 years ago and still is one of the best Trance Tracks
Monstercat needs more Trance like this!!
Look at the likings and disliking of this song to others. Pretty good... And I love ever second of this song. Don't know what your talking about.
this song is defenitly in my top 3 monster cat songs just amazing
it's epic/uplifting trance, so yes kinda like epic trance. it's meant to be epic
Mitchell, you're already one of my favourite artists on Monstercat just from this song
This song is so good, cant stop listening to it
Welcome to the family Mitchell! It's great to hear a new sound that extends beyond genres! I subbed to your utube and liked ur FB page, hope more monsterkittens follow suit!
It would be GREAT if more Trance was brought to this channel.

Well, I think that will do for now lol
Thanks for the response, and keep up the great work, I love all your musics :)
Love from Portugal
I NEED MORE TRANCE FROM THIS CHANNEL!!!!!
Song could've ended perfectly at 3:50 but I'm so glad it didn't!
First Monstercat upload iv liked in months
Along with fire vortex, these are the best trance songs on this channel.
While you're comment still stands here, might I say that you're in my opinion an ABSOLUTE GENIOUS?! Both for the tunes, and the fact that you thought up a way to mix these genre's in such a beautiful way. Cause really, this track alone has me hooked, and I'd love to see what more you can bring with the next release here on monstercat ^.^
Monstercat does need more Trance for sure.
Anybody notice that this is the longest single in Monster Cat Media's track list? 9 minutes of aforementioned Epic Beast!
When I listen to this song every beautiful emotion I have takes over and I fall in love with this feeling. I wanna roll to this song.
I didn't realize that this song had some hardstyle beats in there too! EPIC WORK!
Thanks for the Trance upload MC! We need more trance and hardstyle, thumbs up for trance and hardstyle! -3
How is it that mitchie still doesnt have 1 million views on either of his 3 songs
9 minutes of headbanging and having a nose bleed.....It was totally worth it
Thank you, I feel honored.
I know there are barlly 7 bilion it just how much this channel deserves
You know what I would really enjoy right now? A NEW F**KING HARDSTYLE RELEASE, MONSTERCAT!
MONSTERCAT. WE NEED MORE TRANCE.
You, sir, are a brilliant man.
