May 2005 Mix - DJ Metatron - Somber [progressive]

May 2005 Mix



This is a darker mix. Dirty, deep, and .. dank. I just was feelling like doing a darker mix. All the tunes are great in this one; I really love �zg�r's mix of Itsu, that tune is wicked. Also Kosmas Epsilon's Beyond, one of his best productions for sure. I try to have a more emotional aspect to my mixes; even though this mix doesn't have many vocally intense songs, you still have a feeling of emotional communication.. at least that's what I hope to acheive.

1. Conjure One - Manic Star (Intro Edit)
2. Pole Folder - Salvation on Slavery Sins (Nick Muir Mix)
3. Nikola Gala - Next Room
4. Mile 1 - Itsu ( �zg�r Can Remix )
5. Luke Chable Presents Quest - String Theory
6. Santiago Nino - Robotic Poem
7. Kosmas Epsilon - Beyond
8. Ava Mea - In The End
9. Damien Heck ft. Stephanie Vezina - Aural Signature (Vocal Mix)
10. Hydroid - Burn Proof

Also, does anyone else think Santiago Nino - Robotic Poem sounds like Contra? Anyway please enjoy and let me know what you think.

i'm now totally obsessed with nikola gala - next room

i read the description before listening to it and got a little worried that it would be more slow progressive like bread & butter or embalm. and even tho i loved both of those mixes, it's just not my preferred taste; but that has all changed now.

good set, but not as good as your two previous ones.

the track selection is ok.. some of the power you've built up in the first half slightly ebbs away after Robotic Poem, but overall the tracks are good.

some of the transitions do not quite work out, though. it's not because you lack talent (you proved you did in your previous sets), but because some of the tracks do not seem to work well together.. i'm talking about Robotic Poem into Beyond, and In the End into Aural Signature.

overall this is good, but i know you can do better

an0n: thanks a bunch! that track is awesome Im glad I took part in your transformation of taste.

TOR: thanks for the comments, I agree with you this mix isn't my best. I will admit I was on a bit of a time crunch with the radio show mix and this mix (unofficially) due on the begining of the month. Though I still like the mix, these kinds of tracks are my forte'. Thanks again, and keep an eye out for my next mix.

Oh man this is awesome good. Really digging this set. Great stuff man.
I have to say I've only been touring the Amateur DJs Promotion forum for a while and I have to say I like the stuff I find here better than the big guys. Everything has a new fresh twist to it, and I've found some really awesome stuff on here so far.


Posted by JasonThomas on May-07-2005 19:55:

Thanks man

Ditto on what you said. I find most of the stuff I listen to these days is what I get off of here. I think it's because most of the DJs that post on here aren't afraid to be out of the mainstream. The good ones know that what people really want is something unique and that comes from genuine place. Anyway if you like this mix you really ought to check out a couple of my previous mixes. Thanks for listening, more will come...

yeah, the Nick Muir Mix is def the best version, at least IMO..
you should check out Pole Folder's new album, Zero Gold, if you like more chill, sexy progressive.

Another lovely mix. Nice touch on the intro.

Salvation on Slavery Sins in Zero Gold is nothing like the mix in your set.

sry I guess I should have warned you better. Hope you downloaded a sample before you went and bought it.

I personally love the new album, but yeah it's nothing like my mix. It may be a bit of aquired taste. Some of the vocals in it are just so seductive and relaxing.

I had to add, in your intro to "tapped" the april mix...the fact you used The Postal Service makes you a god. I've been waiting for someone to add in some good indie rock with trance type stuff Try doing a set with some Death Cab for Cutie same lead singer btw

hels ya! The Postal Service is awesome, as well as Death Cab for Cutie. They need to make a new ablum tho, cause I've probably heard 'Nothing Better' more than a healthy amount of times.

You and I aren't the only ones tho, DJ Minaya did a mashup with 'Such Great Hights' and Meerkat - Colours. It's in his self painting mix which can be found here.

Wow thanks man, thats awesome!!!

Not sure about the Nikola Gala sample, if you can figure it out, let me know.

Robotic Poem is awesome huh> it's only available as CDR but if you really want it PM and I'll see what I can do It sounds like the melody from Contra for Nintendo to me. Which is awesome... anybody? heh
Thanks again keep a lookout for my next one.
