Originally posted by Slylee i'm most definitely diggin it. having trouble sleeping now and thought i'd give it a listen...it's relaxing. didn't really dig that latin song...kinda out of left field, but definitely a nice chill set to end my night with before bed thanks for sharing! and i see what montana is saying about the transitions, but i'm more about track selection than mixing. even though i've spent some time behind the decks and can appreciate good mixing, it's just not the most important factor to me and i'm not really an elitest about it. if i like the tracks, i could give 2 shits about the transitions. that's just me though.

Hey, cheers Jamie - I haven't seen you post in this forum very much, but if you like this mix, you should continue to check this place out- some really great talent, some of which I'm sure you know about.

I'm glad you liked the mix, I have been falling asleep with it since I put it together.. it may have been an alterior side to the whole vibe of the mix. I always fall asleep to music and now that I think about it, wI've been putting a lot of this stuff on before crashing.

Thanks for the review


RESISTS MAKING CRACK ABOUT SLYLEE.... (NO PUN INTENDED!)


Oh btw, when I call you Jamie I'm attempting to speak to you like a real person, when I call you slylee I'm probably being a jerk .

no problem greg i like to think slylee and jamie are kinda different.


anyway, i'm about 45 min into it, and it's just getting better and better. i'm tired, but i dont want to fall asleep. i really want to hear the rest of this. i can't wait to burn this so i can listen while i drive!

i can't download at work and i just pick up connections at home on my laptop, so i never bother downloading stuff, but lately i've had good luck, and like someone else posted in here, your sig just sort of caught my attention tonight and i though i'd give it a shot. very glad i did!


i really want to find some more tracks by some of these artists. i know nothing about chill/down tempo stuff, but i love it!

i recently discovered Ladytron...they're a little more punkish than this stuff, but i dunno, reminds me of some of it. i love hearing new stuff and will generally give anything a listen and 99% of the time, will be able to appreciate it.

this set is very james holdenish, only you haven't seemed to throw down some sick, harder tracks like Gebrunn Gebrunn in between like he does, but that's fine...i like the consistency better

Haha.. thats for next month..

Most of these artists have artist albums out and would definetely check them out.

Tycho - Sunrise Projector
Telepopmusik - Angel Milk
Karma - Latenight Daydreaming
Guitar - Saltykisses
Lemongrass - Time Tunnel (it's a collection of classics)

Some other albums DEFINETELY work the time.

International Pony - Mit Dir Sind Wir Vier (Not some german random crap, if you like ladytron and chillout, these guys really fit that middle ground)
Lemon Jelly
DJ Krush
Kid Koala

I'll go on more later

Glad you're enjoying it- It's always nice to hear someone wants to listen to your mix all the way through- but without these boss tunes, I'd have nohing.

i'll work on getting some of those, thanks.


i actually can't wait to play this for my mom. i know she'll dig it too.

Of those I I put most weight on the Internation Pony reccomendation - but all are my favorites - Mit Dir Sind Wir Vier was easily my fasvorite album of this year hands down.


My mom and dad dig this mix, I hope yours do too

I wouldn't call this warm, its chilly for the big part, with some exceptions, like that spanish hip hop track.
What else can I add. The tunes : great success Transitions: some is nice, some non existent. Fits well in my montana and clovis mix playlist.

I think i heard a serart sample there too can't remember which track

I was listening to this while doing my homework and I enjoyed it very much, esp. the second half of the mix. Can't wait for your next one.

This was fantastic, I loved the Spanish rapping and the overall serenity of this mix

There was one song on this near the end i'm not sure on the minute mark, maybe 50's, with what sounds like a female rapping, piano and then it kicks into some proggy fuzzness and dreamy piano in the background. BEST song on this mix, totally brilliant stuff.

The good thing with your mixes (and for the majority of the mixes i enjoy from Tranceaddict) is that i've not got the foggiest idea who half the tracks are by, i've never heard of the artists before, so I can listen to something with an open mind and discover for myself what I like and what I dislike. Theres no "this is cool, listen to this" or "that's shit, forget about that" involved. It lets me have an unbiased opinion, which i thoroughly enjoy.

Thanks for this, some amazing songs put together just made to bring a smile, to be played walking through a dreary town on a shitty day.



Thanks again big man.

All diamond stuff !!!

Will let you know how it gels for me .

absolutely love this section the best.

5 - beautiful, awesome track and vocal
6 - yeh loco hermano!!


got these timings for the tracklist...

[14:45] 05. Skye - Stop Complaining
[18:08] 06. Nach Scratch - Basado en Hechos Reales

now just need the rest to get a cue happening LOL

very cool selection of tracks, but i'm going to have to agree on the transitions being harsh/abrupt at times. could flow more smoothly that's all. otherwise not bad for a nice relaxin' warm chill if that's even possible

Vienna's temperatures are decreasing and my tendency towards winter depression increases: This mix is coming at the right time!

Thanks a lot - I think it is definetely possible

Next one I will focus a bit more on the technical aspects of the transitions themselves.

Cue file is up!

I pretty much agree 99% with Montana's post. This stands as proof that track selection comes before all else, and that people shouldn't be afraid to get original on the tracklists.
