Wintermute (Psy/techno/Industrial) PRIMER (Dark Ambient Psy/Goa)

Wintermute Mix
...aka
'My neighbours think I sell drugs'
mix

I got bored lately stuck inside because it's too cold to go outside for the last few weeks, so I started fiddling around with mixing again.
It's very bleak, cold and fast, lot of tracks missing I really wanted to throw in there and couldn't seem to get working, but I think it's got more or less the sound I wanted. Sort of a dark acid-techno/Industrial/Psy, heck for awhile I thought about dropping a few Terrorcore tracks on the end of it and they would have fitted in, but my ears where hurting enough... and probably dark and murderous enough to scare the average trance fan into crying as it is.

I gave up long ago sticking 'genres as a label' on my mixes and I gave up caring about sticking to one genre of electronic music.
It just is.

This was a very hard mix to do and I'm still undecided on how much I like it in terms of flow, it does have a very distinctive feel and sound to it though, which I like.
But find a nightmare to actually cobble together, especially with it being also comparatively long and it can be difficult to actually keep interesting to anyone listening without it turning into a blur of 147bpm hard sounding electronic drums, bass and freaky noises
Hotaka and Promised Land are two tracks I've wanted to use for quite some time though, completely different sounds though, one's a heavy, organic grind and the other's a harsh, electronic rollercoaster.

And you didnt include the phrase psy or goa in the title because? Gonna dl now!

hehe, suppose I could put a disclaimer in there for you

Looks interesting Lilith, grabbing this now.

downloading this now Didn't know j00 was a DJ

I'm certainly not a DJ! Just a prat with a mixer...

I don't listen to that type (those types?) of music very often, but that was a wicked mix

Hey Lilith,
thanks for sending me that link, I really wanted to hear this.

Ok, track list looks pretty awesome. Opening with techno and some EDM/industrial, we move more into the trippy Psy area, conclusion with one of my favorite metal/industrial tracks by static X.
Thats what I love about your mixes, you dont stick to one single genre but let the mix evolve between several styles. The dark and cold atmosphere is the consistent element. It works very well, you have a good taste in music

Thanks guys, glad you enjoyed it
Though in retrospect I need to be a little more subtle with the filters in places.

heard you're indian

hey there

YOUR BEST MIX SO FAR!!!!


I will use the shit out of it when I am spinning!!!


damn lil lilith are you sure you don't want to be called a Dj!??

I just about creamed in my pants when you led into Ministry Burning inside!!!

The simple fact that you referenced Neuromancer automatically warrants a download from me. This should be interesting.

Hurray, someone knew the reference!
Hope you like it.

It's only my favorite book of all-time.

Will be giving this a listen tomorrow evening.

I need something to listen to this afternoon and wanted something different than what I'd usually grab.

Hoping this will fit the bill.

Any way to put this up again? Link no longer available.

Thanks for hosting
I'll get around to a new set at some point in the next few days once I've ironed out what I want to do with it and chopped down the tracklist, it'll probably be a pure psy set. Which isn't unusual for here, but it'll be different for me.

holy crap this rocks!

clean as the driven snow.

for some reason the first half took me back to 1994/5

i lose patience with a lot psy sets lately but this one kept me in there.

Glad you liked it Q
Yes, they can get overly repetitive and somewhat dull if you're not careful with the tracklists I've found in the past which is why I'm wary of putting together a 'completely' Psy or Goa set. Don't get me wrong it's a great part of trance but not always by itself, plus it does have the 90's feel to it because there was also a lot of decent acid techno around that time along with EBM/Industrial crossovers which influence each other. No genre is an island, they all nibble a bit off one another.

downloading now... will let you know what I think.

Lol - no, not in the least - the link was just dead after I replied, then it got re-upped, then I redownloaded it, and now I'll probably give it a listen some time either tonight or tomorrow afternoon.



I used to rather like a fair amount of trance, thought I don't know shit about Goa or Psy - but between you, Ian, Spacey Orange, Glassball, and J:\Digital I'm trying

Found it's well defined as a genre unto itself, you can usually have a fairly sure bet on what you'll get out of it. (Which has it's uses to a DJ)
Have fun looking at it though, it pays to have some diversity in your listening tastes

However, it's sometimes hard to make 'interesting'
As I found out trying to throw together a comparatively 'pure' set (posted above) and found myself getting bored very quickly even after mixing in a bit of really early Goa and acid.
So, I dug a bit deeper into the electronic/hybrid genre stuff, it has a feel too it, I'm not so sure about how well it flows for the first half and have very mixed feelings on how well it all works overall.
