Overambition ain't **** to me

The other day I was playing some stuff on the radio. People really liked the set, but as always, I forgot to throw the record switch. After being urged by Psy-T to redo the thing, I decided to go out on a limb and record a massive marathon while I was at it, with tunes from all over the musical spectrum. I've posted nothing but ambient/downtempo mixes in here so far, and I think it's time that I showed off that my tastes are more versatile than this. So here it is, 275 minutes of pure electronic music goodness + some surprises:

Mixing was done in Traktor (in a rather rough way if I might add, so no need to comment on the beatmatching aspect). I own almost all the tunes in this mix here, either via digital downloads or my own records. However, I'll admit right off the bat that there is a handful that I have not been able to track down just yet, among them the Air Liquide and Seti tracks, both lifted from some pretty damn rare albums.

Right, enough chit chat. Here are the links:

wow jan this looks awesome...i'm gonna take a listen

nobody listen listens to techno, now let's go. or not
eitherway downloading now

both parts are great...really loving part 2 though ...i might hassle you about some of these tunes hehehe love your taste in techno...

I won't lie, I dl'ld part 2 and forwarded to Detroit Jazzin'. From there on was bliss. One can never have enough of those wavering drum kicks. I love Restless. Danse Macabre & Big Amoeba Sound are too good. Very Cinematic Orchestra, Daedelus sounding. Love it. This is only a further reminder to check out more of those Xen cuts. Thanks

grabbing this now since i've enjoyed some of your past mixes on ukta radio. looks like quite a musically educational jaunt.. i only recognise about 8 artist names

I listened to 120 min of part 1 of your mix last night, staying up to about 2:40 am because of it. Your mix got me distracted from my hw, that and, I was tired.

If I recall correctly at around 118 the beat kinda dragged on, only time I had to fast forward a min or two.

I loved how u seamlessly moved from ambient to groovin beats, all while building from one song to the next. It was like your on stairs leading to some goal, and each step took you one level further towards that goal with an increase in energy. Brilliant!

I Will comment on the full set and part 2 when I�m fully engaged in the mix. Just keep bugging me to remind me.

I was hoping to construct a sort of journey out of this, so I'm glad that it worked that way for you as well.

I've heard that the server I'm using has given some people some trouble before, but if it cuts off, try using a download manager that lets you resume, it should work then.

Cheers for the feedback so far people

kickass stuff, the tracks are awesome. not much more to say

Looks like something I might enjoy

leeching.....

checking this baby out. This bloated oversize baby that is

Althought I haven't heard it all yet I really, REALLY like what i've heard so far. Brilliant track selection and programming

hei�er schei�!

great stuff

listened to part 1
fucking great!

this just shows how much old trance owns new "trance", it's not even funny

and Moaner is just sick

enjoyed most of the mid part and beginning of part 1. Disliked the ending.

part 2 was funky.

niiice, im checkin this one out, and the download speed fast too
ill leave comments once i listened to it!

STILL HAVE NOT HAD THE TIME TO CHECK THESE OUT.

SOON.

I was wondering when someone would be offended by trance over 150 BPM.

Anyways, keep the feedback coming guys! Glad that you're all enjoying it.

Listening to part 2 and so far I am loving it!
Mr Fingers without vocals is tho.

I have to say I disagree here. Since MLK's speech is so powerful, I feel that putting it in the tune in its entirety takes away focus from the tune itself to too large a degree.

Regardless, thanks for listening.

lol +1
this is just a so mofo big piece of sound

2 lovely sets here, distinct journeys (i dont agree with the statement that these are 2 parts of the same set, i could elaborate if needed), both of them skillfully made. i'd say the first works as a soundtrack for evolution, while the second sounds like the soundtrack to a night out at a lounge - in reverse.

oh, one more thing about the first part - i think i liked the original rendition it was based on better... if i had a working memory i could tell you why... but facts considered...

Downloading!
