Equally bad would be continuous "Deep sexy funky moody soulful techy flashy sunshiny tinky winky dipsy lala po House"-wankery imho, which is also pretty widespread here.

I am so sick of hearing that stuff. Even Eurodance is preferable to me right now.

Oh wow, I was really surprised to read this but then I remember that Phil (magnetonium) was missing in action for a while and that may have started about when you registered. Anyway, he shared two sets here a couple of months ago, one was an ambient trance set and the other an underground disco mix. Both sets were mint.

J1, this August classics set is just wowowowowow. I think almost half of the tracks that you chose are in my favorites folder. I love the way you put this together; it just has a great flow, a great feel to it.

Most people assume that most classic trance mixes are just going to be full of the same shit, which is unfortunate since some are actually pretty damn good. My mixes I would consider classic but I don't label them as such just to avoid people thinking it's just going to be airwave -> 1998 - > Gouryella -> Greece 2000 -> Out of the blue -> AIRWAVE.

Unfortunately most classic mixes are such shit which is why I rarely download them.

I completely agree System J should chose the people who make them. If it was just a sign up this thing would collapse in two months after hearing every single dumbfucks idea of the next great classic mix.

I just hope that he will actually chose a few people to throw in some classic mixes - people who are actually good at them, not the average morons.

I really love the mix. Not too much of a fan of ambient myself unless I'm trying to just relax or fall asleep, but I loved the flow of the entire thing and the way you were able to move throughout the mix from the beginning until the end.

Top notch mix!

Looking forward to the next in the series!

Thanks for backing me up!!! You can tell now why I dont post much in MD or PDD anymore (some people's attitudes). Yes, in 2006-2007 I got into a serious college program that I am done now, graduated with honours. Trying to find a career. I feel bad for disappearing, I am not much of an online persona, plus I lost passwords for couple of the other websites I was a member of ... But I am back now, mostly mixes forum.

Anyways, we'll see how this Game goes, I'm looking through some tracks when I am not busy, I have a plan for a unique mix! I was inspired by this Game idea.

got a day off tommorow. got 3 mixes in my head that i'm listening to including this one. barely know any of the tracks but i'll give it a spin.

Jupiterone, I'm only at 18 minutes, and this set has been nothing but perfect. I'm at 48 minutes and the energy level has been excellent, the tracks are so soothing and have all kinds of interesting arrangements as far as drums, string progression, sound effects, even vocals. You have a very pure flow with your tracks, the programming has been outstanding. 53 minutes, and this track is great! Fucking awesome riff, I love it. 66 minutes, mint track! The end of this set was amazing, almost like some goa trance! You won my heart over with this mix, it was amazing. I loved it, congrats for having the first classics compilation, it's setting the bar for the rest of us!

Great idea Jack, hope every month is like this!

thanks a lot everyone

I was really surprised that you were able to move so smoothly from the ambient at the beginning to the pumping shit at the end. The mixing and selection were pretty much flawless. Did you do this on your Lemur, you lucky bastard?

yes sir. lemur + reaktor + xone

Urgh. I'm so jealous.

this mix managed to sound much bigger than just an mp3 file.(i don't know if that will make sense to anyone else) it wsa very atmospheric and usually when i hear new tunes on a mix there's at least one i'm not keen on. liked every track on this mix.

very impressed.

Right, only now do I actually get to listen to this for the first time...

I have to say this isn't my kind of music at all (except for Fluke). Usually it just doesn't work for me. Having said that, I found the overall atmosphere very enjoyable and the mixing very smooth (even though that's not the point of these mixes but I'll still rather listen to properly mixed stuff than trainwrecks, thankyouverymuch). There's nothing really here that sticks out for me but then again there's nothing here that would make me want to turn it off either.

A very fine start for the series, we can only wait and see what the next one will be like...

Speaking of Fluke: J1, are you aware of Slap It? It's the full ten minute version of Zion.

For further mixes in this series, can I request that all DJs post a short history of what they first got into and where they got their first exposure to electronic music? I think this would give their selections greater context and make it even more interesting.

I support this idea.

indeed.

The amount of idiots who do that on myspace is astounding, and half the time their 'beginnings' are woeful (i.e. from the day he heard Sandstorm, DJ Moose was hooked on trance!)

Fuck this was awesome...so many good tracks. Great atmosphere throughout, and I raved hard at the end.

Did I say I was in this?

Fucking fantastic set jupiter. Wide range of styles, smooth mixing, great energy throughout. I thoroughly enjoyed this and I'm excited to see what else pops up over the coming months.

Great start.

I wish we had one of these every 2 weeks instead of every month...

I think once a month is good, makes you appreciate it more. And Jupiterone, great mix. The whole thing progressed really well and I particularly enjoyed the song at 26minutes - which tune was that?
Those last Hawtin ones dominated too, the layering of spastik was awesome.

aphex twin - xtal

thanks, I should have known from your description!

Thread needs a bump.

Haven't had a chance to listen to this yet, but will soon enough. Looking forward to more of these 'mixtapes' sets. Seriously not enough of 'em here.
