It hasn't actually rained very much in the last month, and when it has I've still been busy. There'll be plenty more to come this winter, don't worry.

Some really good tunes in this mix. Great work Jack!

Finally have internet, downloading this.

Ah, Jack, this was tremendous. Have no criticisms, except for it being so short, as it was over before I knew it. Will give many more listens and I'm eagerly awaiting the next installment. Great mix

Cheers guys. Eventually you'll be able to queue up two or three of these mixes to get a longer fix. That's what I do with the ASC mixes.

I have had this mix for almost about 2 weeks now. I downloaded it and the following day it rained for the last 3 days of that week. So during my browsing time, I was bumping this in my head phones and it was excellent.

The dark lighting from the moody cloudy skies and the sounds of the rain really captured the atmosphere.

Really, really chill stuff. I really liked it because it wasn't the average epic/anthem and dramatic club sound. A whole approach. It's awesome. I am starting to realize through your mixes that a mix doesn't HAVE to have epic-related-club-beats to make it a good mix.

I was getting fed up of listening to Robert Miles - Children (Dream version) in the rain because it was too dancey and stuff. It just killed the moody atmosphere.

On a side note, System-J, your mixes are finely mixed and it deserves a cover art! I see you posted a photo for this mix, so I am going to assume that is the Cover Art, and I will attach that picture as the official Cover Art. You might like doing this, because you'll be able to see your own cover art when you click in in Windows Media Player. Or, when you transfer it onto your iTouch/iPhone, you will be able to see the cover art on the phone.

There is a software that lets you attach customized album art to any mp3 track and any image you want. It's called "Media Monkey," and everything is free and fairly simple as well.

you, my friend, are genius. sig-worthy for sure.

Classy mix this. More hard hitting than I was expecting but really enjoyed it. Love some of the sounds in 'Don't Exist'.

Thanks man, and cheers for the Facebook love as well. There is another instalment of this series coming very soon, although maybe not as you'd expect.

Part 2 is now online, and isn't mixed by me! Apologies if the cover art is a bit shitty, really struggled to get such a massive tracklist onto any image at all. This is a really classy mix, just the kind of thing I was after.

Nice! Downloading.

I'm really into this sounds right now, since i saw that thread about Liquid DnB i can't stop listen to this genre anymore.

Cheers.

Well, you won't find any of that here. This was a very solid ambient/drone set, lots of very subtle details, and nobody knows how to blend and program all these tracks quite like pozz. This music was very delicate and sophisticated, quite enjoyable really. Kind of a head trip. Nice work.

hey, thanks for the compliments zip, and thanks for including this mix System-J. it's kinda new for me for to mix in that orchestral bit in the middle, glad it worked out so well with the rest of the sounds.

@rdevito - originally i wanted to include this track (check it out below), but i did not have enough transitional pieces to bring it smoothly from the droning ambient up to this kind of speed.

Man, this is intense music. Awesome stuff.

I actually enjoyed your mix, i don't have too much to say about Ambient mixes unfortunately, that's one of the reasons i like this forum, always learning new music.
I just know it worked really well while i was sitting on the bus looking through the window and watching the people, the cars.

Nice trip....

Listened to your mix, Poz, when there was a huge storm going on outside. Mix was beautiful and fantastic and went amazingly with the weather. Good job, mate

ooh new pozz mix. must listen. too bad we're just getting over all our wet weather and into the sunshine, will keep for a rainy day.

It was a pleasure. If anyone else wants to contribute, PM me your mixes. The idea of this series is to get real variety, so anyone who has an interesting idea - get creative!

Its raining today, ill give pozz' one a go

I must say im impressed with the mix, it really has a deep and dark mood about it, at some points it turns pretty blade runner'esque, which is a good thing(its one of the best movies/soundtracks ever).

After tunnel rytmer is started listening more to your stuff, but u lost me some mixes later when the mood got a bit too bright for me. But this is totally in the right direction. Its awesome. Thanks.

i'm glad man. i do the same when listening, helps me get really lucid about things, events, my own feelings.

i tried to make it go from rain to shine by the end by using that sample of water and those mellow uplifting tones. thanks!

i never thought of tunnel rytmer as all that dark, but you're right. i tend to use loads of bright sounds these days -- not really on purpose, more because it's stuff i end up finding.`easy way to give direction to mix if you set bright stuff (which is the majority of ambient produced) next to dark drones. the first tinkling of the melody always sounds like it clears the air. thanks for the feedback and the listen man.


@teez - the obscenely early hours of the morning make for a good substitute.

I've had 40 minutes spare on Soundcloud because all my main mixes are 80-ish minutes long, so I thought I'd put this up. The weather here has been awful for the last week, so it seems appropriate. This is one of my favourites of my own sets, unfolds very nicely. I never turned this into a series, Life At Low Volume was a semi-sequel but ended up being themed around something else.

Anyway, for anyone who missed it:

Just listened to the first one (gasp, took this long?). For some reason, I was expecting something far more chill, maybe because when I think of being trapped indoors due to weather, that's the sort of music that I'll typically play. And hey, the first couple tracks supported this notion perfectly.

Then the beats and tempo start up and while this was all fine and good (I find your D'n'B mixes better than the others), it made me want to go out and do stuff. Like, a jog or something.


Now I have pneumonia.

Well, that's the point. The mix is about the frustration of wanting to go out and do stuff, but the miserable weather prevents it.

And yeah... I find drum 'n bass much more rewarding to mix than other genres. Fits my style perfectly.
