The Bjork vocal laid over Tantrix on the intro goes on for too long especially when the pad opens up, takes away from the lush intro Tantrix has. If only it was shorter it would have been great.
Only really gets going for me when the Auranuat kicks in and I wasnt keen on how it kicked in either.
I'm not sure how I feel about this, on one hand it's great fun to hear some classics given renewed attention and the Trance Wax mixes are mostly decent.
On the other hand, it kinda boils down to a bog-standard classics set with absolutely no attention given to the flow of the mix - certainly not the 'full 2018 refit' that Pete Tong mentions in the intro...

1 or 2 hectic key clashes along the way that took me out of it a bit - but on the whole I enjoyed it.

As an FYI and of course take this for what it's worth but ejeca didn't do this as some ironic joke. I meet some industry guy and he told me that ejeca got into dance music through listening to trance and hence why he made these cuts. I have to say I do love the fact that anyone can play and old school trance track in a set nowadays. Everything is cyclical. I was a huge fan of these releases.
I didn't see him in Manchester in the end. I listened to a few of his sets online and didn't really rate him. The trance edits are what they are, but I find the modern techno he plays in between very flat footed and rhythmically boring. Not much sense of him really building sets either. Still, I imagine it's all good fun when you're mangled.

Everything is a lot of fun when you're mangled
Really excited to finally see bicep do their live show. Los Angeles sucks at times bc some artists play basically only festivals and I prefer indoor venues
