[Chill/Jazz/Deep House] The Snark - Speakeasy

01. Truby Trio � Donaueschingen
02. Fish Go Deep � Set The Night
03. Fish Go Deep � The Jazz
04. Fish Go Deep � Mood Swing
05. Martinez � Fuji
06. Gabriel Black � Resolutions (B-Side Dub)
07. Physics � Don�t Deny Me Love
08. Fish Go Deep � Flying Funk
09. Frankman � I Feel Free
10. Bent � Always (Ashley Beedle�s Mahavishnu Remix)

Right click, save as...

This set was basically an excuse to experiment with some of the tracks I found while searching through this thread. So, not the typical prog/tech fare from me. Basically, no pre-planning... just giving it a go. Oh, and it finishes with Ashley Beedle's remix of Bent's "Always" because it's one of my favorite tracks ever and I've never made a set in which it would fit. It's the shakiest transition in the whole set, but I doubt it will really offend.

Also, this set starts at 90 bpm and ends up at 125.

Check this out if you like: jazzy sounds, piano riffs, sax, soulful vocals, funky basslines, relaxing soundscapes.

Also, special thanks to the people in the aforementioned thread for their suggestions when I was looking for jazzy tracks... specifically, l�cid and montana since this set basically spawned from their suggestions.

I haven't even made my way all the way through the suggestions from others yet... but I got my power back at the start of the weekend after it being out for almost a week in aftermath caused by hurricane Ike, so I was really itching to start mixing and messing with this.

i need to distract my mind today so why not.

I'm in!

YES I was hoping someone would do a mix of the recommended tracks from that thread.

In in in.

relax........
and then hear it

Cheers, guys. Let me know what you think.

Checking. Will let you know



Off topic: If you haven't heard of Xploding Plastix, I'm sure you'd like. Check out their album "Amateur Girlfriends Go Proskirt Agents."

My fave is Sports, Not Heavy Crime, but here's a link to Funnybones and Lazylegs - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V0_R...feature=related

Also, Skalpel. They're Polish. Amazing stuff. This tune slows my blood. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c6E_...feature=related

Also attempt to grab any Single Cell Orchestra stuff you can find.

Sorry. This thread reminded me I never posted in the aforementioned one in MD, not stealing your thunder!

On topic: I'm excited to get some new stuff. Not heard of Fish Go Deep.

Thanks a lot for the suggestions! This track was a bit too crazy on the snare drum for me... it was kinda distracting. But I can tell that I should check out other tracks by this artist.

Pretty neat... not really what I would consider to be "jazzy" in the same way as the stuff in this mix, but still a cool downtempo track. Could probably work it pretty well into a dubstep set. Neat percs, especially.

No problem at all, I appreciate the bump. However, feel free to post more suggestions in the other thread... it's still going strong and I'm loving the shit outta that thread.

Yeah, I hadn't heard of Fish Go Deep until now and I obviously liked them a lot. Had to use them several times in here, lol.

Appreciate the listen, and let me know what you think!

Hoping this will get me chilled. Will let you know

EDIT: Sexy! Loving it.

Grabbing this babe!
No Kevin Yost though?

Thanks a lot! New style of mixing for me, so I'm glad it seemed to turn out alright.

Just checked this guy out. 7th Heaven is pretty neat... sounds like it's in 7/4 time (which I assume is where the name came from)... neat! Don't hear odd time signatures in dance music much. I wonder how difficult this would be to mix into, though.

I also checked out Soul Alive (which is nice, but kinda "supermarket-ish"), Natural High (groovy and nice sax!), and Night Of A Thousand Drums (total fire, this would be so fun to play out). Thanks for suggesting this artist!

This is very pleasant. Good work man.

in.

Great... let me know what you think. Always appreciate your feedback!

I ended up burning this & have played it out in the car. It's amazing at 5 a.m., on the way to work, with a mint latte. It's started many a morning out right.

Thank you

edit/ You have anything else lined up?

You are welcome, and thank you for the kind feedback! I agree that this is good music for a late night or early morning drive... I was driving to Tennessee last night (out here for work purposes) and the girlfriend and I listened to it on the way when it started getting dark out.

One of the things that I like about this kind of music is its versatility... you can use this music in so many different ways. In the right club/lounge/swanky bar, at a festival, at home... you can dance to it, or just sit back with a drink and close your eyes and groove to it. That's why I wanted to put together a mix like this... the tracks are just class.

I don't have anything else "lined up" yet necessarily, but I love mixing and I've really been into this kind of stuff lately, so I'm sure I'll be putting another similar mix together shortly. In the meantime, feel free to listen to my techier/more progressive "clubby" mix which you can get to by clicking my sig picture, if you're into that type of sound.

Once again, thanks!

And couldn't have said it better myself.
