LOL, look at my post count, I'm a bit longer on the board then u, so I guess u changing it would be a better idea.
On the other hand, I don't care if u use it, if ur happy with it, let it flow...

About the avb ess mix, I finally listened it completely.
All I can say is that prog owns trance in a matter of mixing/journey.
It's a mediocre mix, nothing more, I've listened to it, I can say it's better then PVD mixes, and for a trance mix it is really fine, still it can't touch oakey's ess mixes from 1999 but that was then and now is now....
The first hour of the mix is very poor, cheese and lacking some power, it's going better in the second hour but then sunburn and the track after it ruine the second part a bit for me, choosing point zero for a finisher is a nice trick but it can't save the mix in his whole.
I think avb fans will be pleasured with it though.

My 2 cents...

I agree. Armin's style is too anthemic in not as a classy style as other trance djs and this is very evident in this EM. This EM doesn't even come close either to Tiesto's Essential Mix of September,2001. Now THAT was a genius exposition of trance to a Radio 1 audience, fine and tasteful balance of what good electronic dance music is supposed to be.

Some of the tracks in this set were awesome, especially the Solar Stone and Scott Bond, but nothing extraordinary. To those that think that Armin can reach #1 this year dream on....

Hey all

we were the site hosting the mp3 for danceresort. unfortunately we've had to take the set down now - we've had 3000 downloads and served over 9gb, which takes us up to our monthly limit

hope you all enjoyed

whoever did the TA tracklist is wrong, the last track is definitely Li Kwan Point Zero and NOT matt darey - from russia with love

Posted by INFERNO2K on Feb-09-2003 19:42:

Its about time that gave a Trance Dj an e-mix and I have to say its one of the better mixes ive heard in a long time

Posted by benfica88 on Feb-10-2003 03:07:

Fark Me, I missed it

Posted by Deez on Feb-10-2003 04:23:

I thought it was a good set, but not his greatest. In any case, well worth the download

Posted by solidi on Feb-10-2003 04:34:

good quality set. This set is a good start for the '03 sound.

Except for a few typing errors from the bbc site (and the fact Sunburn aint in there) the tracklist is correct
I dunno why you think so... but it CERTAINLY!! aint From Russia With Love
Also 4x4 = Ferry Corsten and its most probably coming out as Ferry Corsten - Indigo so that would be another good ID

Greetz,
