lol I think Santiago probably knows his stuff

nice selection of tracks

a well mixed set of non offensive commercial progressive. My main complaint would be the levels. Some kick drums sound like a tin can and others sound like thunder as well as big track volume variation.

It is certainly a mix that would appeal to many but I found it far too safe for my tastes.

I enjoyed this mix. Have any more?

Why did u play Aftermath first?

i listened to your mix the other day, thought it was good! just a couple of things to point out though, "buy now - for sale" sounded like it was a beat behind when you brought it in to the mix, but didnt sound to bad, also, if i mind correctly, the second last track with the moby accapella sounded very quiet to the rest of the tracks in your set! Apart from that it was a good mix of electro fused with trance tunes, good mix! also, keep up the good work with your productions! CHECK OUT MY NEW MIX IF YOU GET THE CHANCE!

THANKS, djlyall

I could be wrong, but I think people who put tracks like that in the beginning of a set, have problems mixing into the track or cant find a track to mix into it with, but yet they have to put the track in their mix and the easiest way to accomplish that is to just stick it in the front.

If you actually listen to the mix (which I think sometimes people don't even bother doing before commenting on it!) I think it works really well.

This is why I dislike the whole 'tracklist culture', where every mix needs a tracklist before anyone will listen to it... people end up judging a mix simply from what tracks are in what order based on certain "rules" they think exist, even though a good DJ can use the way they mix two tracks together to make almost anything work. I heard a mix a little while ago with someone starting on 150bpm hard trance and finishing on 135bpm breaks, working down through trance in between, but because of the way the mixes were done, no energy was lost going from one track to the next.

Yeha, which is why my demo owns.

Anyone can do anything they want with the tracks they play at their own discretion, but in the case of Aftermath, right now, its a hot peak hour track that everyone wants to hear and sticking it in the front could take away from the track and the mix.

Sure it might not sound bad...but Aftermath SHINES at 4:30 in the morning on a packed dancefloor in a dark club on a huge system. Even cranked loud at home on good speakers it is not the same. The track is MEANT to be played in the aforementioned setting.

I am all for breaking the rules...but this doesnt look like an "oh lets try something really interesting" rule breakage, it sounds like "oh shit this track is massive but it doesnt fit with anything else here...badabing"

Digweed, Sasha etc will drop this at 4:30am and make the club explode. There is a reason for this...

to be honest i cant stand the track anyway, no matter what time it's played hehe. for me it's no where near as special as everyone seems to make out...

i agree, but i do have a copy myself, its nothing spectacular, ive heard better,i think the build up in the break is a bit long, but dropped at the right time, it could do some damage on the dance floor!

Listen to this mix at 4:30 in the morning and you'll get exactly what you're after then

I joke, I agree tracks can get that kind of feel about them so it seems strange when they're played at any other time, although if I was going to play it myself I'd usually have to play it quite early as the bulk of my set will normally be faster and tougher than that... maybe that means I shouldn't play it? Although playing to a trance/hard trance crowd, most people might not know it so it wouldn't have the same "I wish they played this later" thing, who knows...

Why would you want to incorporate it in a trance/hard trance set unless you made some sort of bootleg remix to it.
