Right place at the right time!

Here's a proper host for the mix too, since I already have all the others hosted there too:

No, I'm in yours, again.

Thanks for the tunes, that was exactly what I needed this afternoon (had a pretty crappy day). Smooth, and oh-so-relaxing. Actually quite a bit more chilled than the last couple, but I'm certainly not complaining.

Great work. Your Windmill Sessions are among the best mixes posted here

Thanks man. Certainly got a chilled vibe in this one, but it ramps up a bit near the end. Need to do a 2hour mix soon to showcase some higher tempo stuff.

Another absolutely sick mix, Spike!

Windmill Sessions Redux are definitely amongst my favourite series of mixes on here.

Out of interest where do you find your music from?

Brilliant feedback, thanks so much. Really makes my day to hear people really digging the mix series.

I answered this question about where the music comes from before but I'll do it again. Totally against music-snobbery, so more than happy to reveal my sources! As you asked, here's the breakdown, hopefully it will help people to find similarly great and original music:

Ion - Electric Dream (serafim tsotsonis remix)
A new remix from one of my favourite artists Serafim Tsotsonis. I always keep up to date with his releases through Beatport, Klik records and his myspace.

High Violets - Chinese Letter (ulrich schnauss remix)
Massive fan of Ulrich Schnauss, so snapped this up when it got released on his bumper pack of remixes

Astropilot - Arimoya (alex rize remix)
Alex Rize is another talented young artist that I follow. Heard this remix in a mix somewhere and snapped it up when it came out on Beatport.

Franzis D -Alhambra (hypnotic duo breaks mix)
Think I stumbled upon this on Beatport. Great track.

Resonant Dawn - 36 Degrees
This was complete luck. Just spent hours trawling through Beatport, sorting the chaff and came along this absolute gem. Will be following Resonant Dawn's work closely from now on. Check out the EP - it's great!

Vladislav Korsakov - Into Environment
Another lucky stumble on Beatport. As soon as I heard the track I knew it was right for the mix.

Deep In Calm - My Sky
Deep in Calm have recently released an album that has gone down well, played their tracks before also.

Arthur Deep - Prima Facie
Ha, I listen and generally love everything Arthur Deep does. Eagerly await each release.

Vladislav Korsakov - Ringworld
See above answer for Vladislav Korsakov

Arctic Night - Eclipse of Earth (li-polymer remix)
Big fan of Li-Polymer, bit of a rising star. Always listen to the new releases.

Tive - Rescue George (intro mix)
Think I heard this on the Silk Textures myspace and then in a Silk music mix. Always worth keeping an ear out for what your favourite producers are spinning, they might not be great dj's, but they know their tunes.

Serafim Tsotsonis - Royal Observer
Brilliant track from a while back that I wanted to revisit and rediscover.

The KPS - Dusty Dirt Road
Heard this on a Michael and Levan mix I'm sure.

Li-Polymer - Collision
Li-Polymer is one to watch. Keeping track of all his releases.

Eryo - Fading Flower
EP from Mistique Music. Try to listen to everything they put out (a Herculean task in itself).

Adam Byrd - Imaginary Friend
Great tune, heard on one of the Silk Myspace pages before release.

Vibetech - Back To Infinity (michael & levan and stiven rivic remix)
Always take special priority to listen to Michael and Levan stuff.

Mango - Here We Go
Mango. He's quite easy to keep track of! Beatport is your friend as always.

New Channel - Wonder What The World Was
This was a lucky punt. Spent ages looking for good sounds in the chillout and electronica sections on Beatport. Found this. Made it all worthwhile.

Still with me? Generally I get most things from Beatport. Occasionally I may get a track from a friend who has produced it, although that's rare. Sometimes I have the actual CD and use the track from there.

In order to find the tracks...well patience is key. You have to search, search and search some more. Some days I spend 3 plus hours trawling without finding anything. Also, don't limit yourself to one genre; I check electronica mainly, a bit of chillout, breaks and prog house. But also listen to folk, indie, shoegaze, ambient. There will be offshoots that fit the style in near enough all genres.

Check Beatport religiously. Also Junodownload. Myspace is good. As is Youtube increasingly. Watch films (art house films), listen to soundtracks (not the big guns). Listen to random albums by random whimsical artists. Go through experimental works. Download mixes by a wide variety of dj's, not just your favourites. It's an arduous task, but is so worth it when you get just a tiniest bit of praise for your lovingly-compiled mix by someone half the globe away. In short, its a labour of love .

Hope that explains it!

Got to see another big fan of Serafim Tsotsonis, Arthur Deep and Michael & Levan...all seriously under-rated artists!

Looking forward to Redux 009!

No problem man, my pleasure.

I think Serafim Tsotsonis is relatively well-known within electronic music circles, perhaps not as much within the clubbing scene as he is more album-based in his approach. Michael and Levan are growing in popularity day by day and Arthur Deep could be very big I'm sure, I imagine he is being deluged by remix opportunities and the like.

009 has been compiled on its way after the weekend.

Thanks again.
Spike
