Disclaimer: I know there is obviously a fair amount of classic M.I.K.E. records missing in this mix, that certainly deserved to be there. But a mix can only be so long, so I had to make a tough selection. And trust me, it was very hard. The eventual choice of tracks was influenced by the personal availability of the tracks, the soundquality of the files, the mixing nature of certain records and of course just the feeling of the day. A lot of great tracks therefore just didn't make the cut, but don't worry, they might pop up in part 2, somewhere in the future

what about Forever Waiting! :P

One of the tracks that missed the final cut. I actually had the choice between this one and the R.E.S.P.E.C.T. remix, and in the end I chose the latter. But this is a great remix indeed

But no matter how many tracks I included, there would have always been "Oh, and what about this one?" comments That's just how extensive and impressive Mike's discography is.

Wow! No "Strange World"? thx for the mix though.

Well, I wanted to stray away from the all too obvious. And fact of the matter, since I'm such an avid Mike fan and therefore very familiar with almost his entire oeuvre, I could easily list 40 tracks I like more than Strange World. I don't underestimate its impact and the fierce power it holds, but it's never really been that special to me personally

cool understandable...its a great track. Mix Looks good though thx.

still love that track, but prefer the original

downloading

Great work Jasper, will download. I would have made a totally different choice, but I respect the time and effort you have put in it.

I really miss Musix - Do Ya See The Light... such an overlooked M.I.K.E. record, its actually very scary. I would also haved picked Globe vs Push - Tranceformation.. Such a killer melody.

Anyway.. time to listen when I get back to work

I don't have that one unfortunately And since Is This The Way I Feel - which I rate almost equally high - was readily available, I chose that one And as far as Tranceformation is concerned, I opted for the less know Sweet Pain remix, which is also a collaboration with Japanese Globe.

Cool. Gonna check this out.

If you make a part 2:
I'm surprised that you didn't include Ultra Vibe - Choose Freedom and
MIKE - Sunrise At Palamos. Two favourites of mine.

Also would have included Bloodhound Gang - Foxtrot Uniform Charlie Kilo (MIKE remix). It's by far the best MIKE have done in the last 10 years and extreamly underrated.

Going to see him live soon, so your timing for this could nay have been better!

Checkin' it out after work.

Don't get me wrong, I love the track, but I felt there are other M.I.K.E. alias tracks that are just as good, but never got that much attention.

no Moon Project - Moments are Forever?

downloading.

It has the b-side

Sweet! Grabbin this for sure. My all time fave trance producer.

then Foxtrot Charlie should definetly been included. If there is any underrated Mike remix it is that one!

I actually thought Urban Shakedown was a Bonzai release.

Nah, it's definitely released on Progrez. I have the 12" at my parents place

I've got the 12" on Bonzai!

Ah yes, discogs says there's a Bonzai UK release as well

I've never heard that remix before and I must say I'm quite impressed.
It has the classic Push feel all over it. Is there a dub version of this remix by any chance?

Instead of listing the tracks I would have included, I'll mention the ones that I feel didn't belong in the set

03. Yves Deruyter - Music non stop (Push remix) [Bonzai - 2002]
Original > Push Remix

08. Rio Klein - Fearless (Push remix) [Nettwerk - 2003]
One of Mike's less impressive efforts as far as I'm concerned. Mostly because he starts off with a standard Reason loop

17. Musix - No regrets! [Bonzai - 2000]
I didn't know this track either, but it is not nearly as impressive as some of the other Musix releases such as the previously mentioned Do Ya See The Light.

18. Sunscreem vs Push � Please save me (Vocal mix) [XTC - 2001]
Push Remix > Vocal Mix

29. Push - R.E.S.P.E.C.T. (Club mix) [Bonzai - 2004]
Cfr. Fearless remix. Except for the Reason loop, as there's hardly any percussion to be found in this track

Don't get me wrong, I like all of those but they're quite average compared to most of the other tracks featured in the set. Especially considering massive stompers such as Matanka - Lost In A Dream (Push Remix), Mauro Picotto - Back To Cali (Push Remix), Absolute - X-factor, Extreme Trax - Final Fantasy or Solar Factor - Deep Sonar are available. There, I did list a few tracks I would have included

Anyway, I do realise the difficulty of putting together a complete overview of Mike's talent in less than 4 hours. Which means you'll have to come up with a second part now

Am I late??

Ill have a go on this as im feeling nostalgic today

Nice one Vega! Seriously, some of you should make your owne M.I.K.E. tribute sets. The guy made a hell of a set; just take it for what it is and not what you would have wanted it to be.

its awesome indeed. What an incredible producer mike is. If it was up to me this would last 2 hours more, haha!

Awesome mix - thanks for creating and sharing
