Hmm well I do not think its a DJ Mix but it is a mix/compilation.

Godskitchen Global Gathering 2004 3xCD

Too lazy to post the tracklistings. But 1 CD is for trance and the other for house(good house too).

Godskitchen global gathering cd was so so...the trance cd was great track wise, but the mixing was horrid, not even "real" mixing cus there were 18 or some odd tracks jam-packed onto 1 cd...I mean come on, the mix out of tiesto adagio into sun is shining is as horribly disrespectful as burning a flag. I bought it for the cloudwalking 2004 track really as well as the possibility of hearing some awesome breaks on CD3. About that: I love the dreamy atmospheric breaks like Hybrid, Luke Chable etc....this was hip hop-ish breaks style. I won't say it's horrible, but it is very much NOT my taste...so that was disappointing.

Also, as I continue to rant , Ahead was something I desperately sought after to buy....took 7 stores before someone found me a copy (AND THIS WAS IN THE UK....NOT IN THE US...I THOUGHT THEY'D BE ALL OVER THE PLACE!!!) SO finally, after all the "who the hell is Scott Bond?" and "Ahead? Doesn't ring a bell" I got my copy. I was smiling and laughing at the ridiculousness of the first mix into White room...wow was that awesome! But after that, I quickly lost interest...I already had the tracks I liked on the album, and they sounded funny on the cd anyways. What happened with Robert Nickson - Spiral??? It sound like he seriously cut the mid range as it was building up. I couldn't pull out the rest of the track besides the pounding bass line! Maybe it was a problem w/ my cd, but my copy of spiral on my mix cd sounded way better than the one on Ahead. And the mix out of it into F Massive??? With all that weird sound effect crap at the end of the big line in Spiral? TERRIBLE! Then I heard that awful Cohen vs. Deluxe track, man did was that bad! What an awesome techno track completely ruined. So yeah, wasn't a fan of Ahead...specially when I quickly put in disk 2 to find happiness in Hybrid - Higher than a Skyscraper only to find out that he mixed out before it gets going...total bummer.

Back on topic, best mix cd so far??? I don't know yet...I really want to check out Sasha - Involver...even though it's not TECHNICALLY a "mix" cd...more of a rework album, but I hear it is absolutely MINT! Most stuff has disappointed me lately, including Armin's mixing on the ASOT album. He actually did the same mix I do between Super 8 Alba and Satellite...only, (if you knew me personally, You would know that this is the only time I ever give myself any credit in life whatsoever) my way of doing it was much much better.

Hopefully my fav mix cd is still on the way!

While I was in the UK I picked this up...I enjoyed it a lot...

CD 1 did have some "interesting" and "unique" mixing, but I wouldn't call it horrible. I think it's just a bit different. I did like how they mixed into pulser - cloudwalking though. really liked that.

And CD 2, great house music. Lola's theme!!! haha CD 3's breaks .. the hip hop stuff, i dunno, I have to be in the mood, but it's got some good selection.

So yeah, I'd say it's one of the best compilations i've heard this summer...

oh but it is....lol, along with sasha - involver if u have those 2 cds ur set!!

Posted by neural defect on Aug-10-2004 01:35:

I think the compilation/mix came out last year. I am not 100% sure exactly when, but Saeed & Palash - Addictive Beats. I think it's second best to Sasha's Involver.

My 2 cents.

But, I'd really like to get a hold of Zabiela's - Alive before I make sure decision.

Oh shit! Zabiela's CD is out now isn't it? I gotta pick that up soon.

I gotta say Sasha - Involver as of right now, though.

Posted by sigmanova on Aug-10-2004 07:08:

no contest here people.

Sasha-Involver. 'nuff said.

Posted by Protege on Aug-10-2004 07:08:

Definitely Invovler although I havent heard Alive yet and should it be anything like his essential mix it should be mint as well.

George Acosta - The History Of Trance

Posted by her throat cut on Aug-10-2004 16:59:

i think one of the best mixed CDs is U60311-Chris Liebing Techno Division Vol.4

he mixed it live on 2Cds and the first Cd contains complex electronic music entirely mixed on Laptop and the second Cd is done in the usual style on turntables and its hard pumping techno.
