George Hales

George was born on the 25th of April in 1985 at Kettering General Hospital. George found his love for trance music in 1998 when tracks like Paul Van Dyk's For An Angel and Energy 52's Cafe Del Mar were getting airings. Although living in Corby, Northamptonshire where there is a real lack of underground music he still found the inspiration that sparked what lead on to be his passion. In 1999 he joined up with school friend Daniel Knight aka Daniel Haze and the 2 then went on to form a production team known as Aspiration. With a long list of productions done under this alias, they quickly started learning what was required to bring the material up to release quality. Then in 2003, they got in touch with Rob Aker better known as Jose Amnesia and remixed his classic trance anthem, The Eternal. The mix was picked up by the likes of Jon O'bir, Matt Darey, Guy Ornadel, Scott Bond and John 00 Fleming. The track then found its way to the FFRR A&R office, and after a couple of emails, the track was added to the release package. The success of Aspiration was fairly short lived after the 2 decided that after their current projects they would split in search of their own sound. This lead to George's first completely solo production called Kyoto. After finding his new style and sound, he then went on to produce a list of new tracks ranging from the slightly twisted, Spyder, to the epic stadium trancer, Autumn Falls. After sending Autumn Falls to a couple of dj friends and musical contacts, the track landed in the hands of Somatic Sense's Dj Precision who then immediately went on to sign the track for a future release on the label and give George his first release under his own name. Things wouldn't stop there though; he has now picked up regular support from many of the top names in trance and is quickly becoming a common name on release packages. Future label releases will be delivered from the likes of Lange Recordings and Somatic Sense's latest offshoot label Somatic Sense Visions and Remix work being released on labels such as A State Of Trance, Equilibrium Recordings, new label Team Toad Recordings and more to be announced in the coming weeks.
