Steve porter mix Compilation

Boston born, world conquering, Steve Porter will release his first ever mix compilation in February. Serving up a slab of fresh Porterhouse with 26 tracks on the menu the album will merge his proficiency in the studio with 9 original tracks and the offerings of his favourite producers.

Expect the usual eclectic range of funked-up house beats, techno and electro twists that Steve selected from over 300 tracks he received:
�I received so many amazing tracks (thank you labels!) and I entertained any and every piece of music. However, I always had the idea in my head that I wanted to keep the project as in-house as possible and ultimately having a sense of family on the album is the concept that won me over.�
The album has a distinctly Boston underground flavour to it, as Steve showcases the talents of his local crew.
Some of these artists include his long-term collaborators; Agent 001 cohort Eli Wilkie, Emjae, and Chris Reavey, as well as emerging artists Bons, Hush, Musky, Aaryn Blain, Chris Micali, Jonathan Hart, and Island 9.

Will this be single or double CD?

Hopefully it'll be single, I'm interested to hear someone properly fitting 26 progressive tracks on one CD..

He was really good at Cielo last Thursday. He was already on at 11:30 when I got there and closed up at 3:30, which was a bit annoying. I don't think he played with an opener at all and started at 10 when the club opened. The set had a lot of the same tracks at the 11-23-05 Talbott Street set from Indianapolis that was posted in the midwest and tracklist forums.

The encore track was The Edgar Winter Group - Free Ride which was a very Porter-esque way to end since I've heard him close with tracks like Dee-Lite - Groove is in the Heart and Eye of the Tiger.

it's not [i]that[/] hard, just remove all those extra breakdowns, 5minute builds and everything and maybe if the dj actually does his job, like a techno dj would do, it would be work

I know, I know, and I'd be very interested to hear someone pulling it off properly. I have yet to see a prog house mix CD that does.

That's why I mentioned it.

indeed me too, and im afraid this one isnt gonna do it either. For me that is. If u have so many tracks it needs to flow perfect and has to be mixed perfect. Lets hope that is the case here...

I heard a little preview of it last weekend. It's really amazing. It's like a power hour mix, every minute a new song comes in! It's done very smoothly and with lots of energy. Big ups to Steve-O for representing Boston on this mix.

I'm wary of this for one reason: The megamix factor.

Porter is without a doubt one of my top 5 favorite DJ's, and I'd rather hear something along the lines of his live playing style as opposed to a CD where he's banging out a megamix style comp.

I'm not saying this is going to be at all bad, and I'm definitely going to pick it up just because I love Porter and I've got faith this won't be ANYTHING at all like the ASOT Yearmix CD (Ivomitmuch), but I will be really, REALLY disappointed if this ends up just being a banging megamix without any real sense of flow to it...

I think if Montana is correct and he really pulls it off like a good techno dj would, this could be great, but looking at the TL, I'm just a little skeptical... that's all.

I like the title of the comp.
