I just want you all to get a house party going where someone has some really nice artwork for me to smear my smelly cock on and divide things that weren't intended to be divided.

What is that supposed to mean?

It means that secretly I'm John Digweed and I wanted to know how much you all love my remix.

Or that I have a sense of humor. I don't know.

Originally posted by SYSTEM-J I'm nothing if not a contrary bastard, so I'll go against the general opinion and say I enjoyed the programming of this one. Certainly it's way better in that respect than your last few. I thought the stretch from The Baguio Track through to Heaven Scent was the peak period of the mix, filled with all the recognisable anthems, and you did a good job of building up to that point and then winding back down. Mixing was quite nice, although more functional than interesting. I may have been wrong, but you seemed to mix quite loose early on and quite tight at the peak, which is a technique I use when programming a set. At the end of the day, this kind of millenial prog retrospective mix isn't going to be groundbreaking, but I personally think you're ironing out the flaws.

Oh, forgot, thanks for the listen man. Flow is something I'm pretty self-aware of... I know I've got a long ways to go in terms of that, so it's nice to hear this was an improvement over the last set. I do find mixing prog a lot tougher than tech / house, most likely because it tends to be much "fuller" resulting in clashing, I dunno.

Been a while since i've listened to prog. Will check this out.

A haze forms, her ankles always seemed to clatter about unevenly, especially when the weather was wearing. Each light flickering in the morning woke her just a little, enough to make each step a bit more plausible, sauntering slowly to the bus stop. The glaze in her eyes had formed to an almost tinfoil-like film, making pinpricks out of sunrays. Her skin was the texture of a sopping brillo pad bathing in a gray patch of fluorescent light.

The diesel engine heaved forward in the distance cutting through the ashen and heavy air. Everything was coated in that rust and cinnamon smell of mixed vapour and paper mills. Where your collar wilted by 4pm as the air parted way. And it was here that she had met the strangest person.

willow branch and olive headstone
preaching former bricks to brimstone
each a pillow seething in tone
by a southern glance of fission in bone

Underneathe the bitter scepter does the plodding bury sunder for the kick, the clap, the hi-hats bore from thunder. The festering burble of the sweltering bog all night in the hedge-maze of unforgiving prog.

A sacrament to the flesh, a testament to the Welsh.

Her skin tore easily, despite the contour and the divots. Nine laces placed poignantly where the fat layer forms its burrough. Veins warping around its structure to form its pulsing nest. And to sever that nest.

To sever it all, hanging.

Remainder.

eight years to make the Kick Ass mix

eight years, Danny

Late bump.

Soooo good man, I fucking love these tunes so much. I wish there was somewhere I could go to party that still played music like this

Wicked set, Any Dough

I wish I could get a gig somewhere playing this sort of stuff!

Finally tuning in to this. 15 minutes in and so far, so good.

Edit:

OK, just finished listening and agree with SYSTEM-J. I thought your programming was alright and in accordance to the music style. Don't know where all the comments about the mix not going anywhere are coming from. A good progressive set is supposed to build and build very slowly, which is experienced better in longer sets. Considering you had a little over an hour to do your thing, you did pretty damn well. Some people need to get off their high horses, IMO.

Mixing was alright, for the most part. Nothing spectacular, but nothing cringeworthy either. There were some obvious transitions, like the first one for example but they were nothing more than that: obvious. I don't know if this happens to you too, but I always struggle a bit with the first transition of my sets. Don't know why it happens because it makes no sense at all, but I always find it to be the hardest one.

My only "problem" (if it can even be a problem) with the mix was that I wish you had used the original version of "Heaven Scent" instead of that remix.

Overall, good job sir.

Thanks a ton Sushi, and yeah, I'd kill to hear a night of stuff like this. Never got to experience it for myself. I love a lot of stuff coming out today, but one of my favorite things to do right now is scour my local record shop for older progressive(since that's pretty much the best part of their selection), and spending hours going through beatport / juno's back catalogs for this type of stuff.

Thanks woscar, and I agree fully. I find it very tough to construct prog sets. I'm not exactly sure as to why, it's just different music than a lot of the other stuff I mix. The mixing in particular can be a bear as I've still got some things to learn, and if you're not exact with your eqing, things tend to clash and get muddy. What's interesting is I think I actually do much better in terms of programming and mixing when I'm mixing with my turntables and vinyl. Having a really limited selection forces me to know all my tracks completely as I play each over and over, and it helps a shitload. I honestly feel more restricted with a huge library of things to choose from on a computer screen.

Anyways, thanks a lot guys, woscar you can go back to wolf + lamb now.

Sorry for the ultra-late response. I quite enjoyed this. I too thought the programming was fine. Liked all the tunes and the mixing was adequate. Great stuff mate. As Sushi said, this shit needs to be played more.

Make another, imo.

w00t! I used to be a proghead long ago, when digweed still knew what he was playing, and satoshi tomiie hadnt forgotten about drums yet.

haha I want to but my amp is broken so I have no way of recording. I have no money to get a new amp either.

And holy shit, October?? I really need to get back on the train.

Missed this. On it and will come back and comment. I need stuff like this for the gym

Hench the bump

I love this set and want moar!

Sorry to hear about the amp I'm going to try to buy some turntables this summer, so maybe a year from now you'll hear a vinyl mix from me ha.

It sucks, with school going on I just don't have the free time to devote to this stuff as much as I'd like. Only got two semesters left though.

Really enjoyed this Endyo. I don't know why I waited so long to listen, but I guess it's never too late

This is such a nice and warm sound, I really love it and miss listening to it. Reminds me of older CD compilations I used to listen to so although I may not be familiar with the tracks, as a whole this had a very nostalgic feeling to me. Picture fits well too

You know Imma cop this mug.
