Another one I really enjoyed putting together. I hope some of you enjoy listening to it as much as I enjoyed mixing it.

haven't heard one of your mixes in forever Rob. gonna have to take a listen

good on you for throwing in Erotic City. I went to a roof top party a couple years ago and Phil K dropped it in his set early in the night and it was pretty epic imo hehe...

Ha! I was surprised to see you're name show up in MD when I popped over here to edit the post, glad to have crossed paths again.

"Erotic City" actually goes a long way back for me. I used to drop that record at house parties in Stevens Point 6-7 years ago pretty much any time the decks were setup. Great party record.

Anyway - hope you enjoy it. It's certainly the brand of house that's either all the rage or the thing that you hate just a bit less than Skrillex, but I've got a feeling as far as that goes, you fall into the former category and not the latter.

For those who haven't heard it yet (I have no idea how widely circulated it is), the first tune is basically an awesome reinterpretation of one of the themes from the video game "L.A. Noire."

It's top notch, and listening to it incessantly is largely what got me to do this.

OH GOD HELLO

Saw this on facebook, decided to comment on TA because I haven't been on here in forever. I'm excited about Talking Heads

Outside of the DJ promotion forums, I don't make it too far around here anymore either, but it's definitely nice to see some of the old-school TA's pop in around here from time to time.

I've wanted to work that Talking Heads track into a set for a long time, but definitely felt pretty forced until this one.

Hope you dig it

I love that mix, and honestly think it might be the best I've ever done. If I had to rank my own favorites, they'd run roughly (in no particular order):

Chiaroscuro
[home.]
Gonzo
Green
Audiography 1 & 2
Synthesis
Random Summer
Twilight Ride

Was listening to this a lot yesterday, it's a really good mix. I've never played LA Noire but I liked the intro song! Funnily enough while listening to the first song of the mix, I was reading a NeoGAF [gaming message board] thread about the most disappointing games of 2011 and nearly every post was LA Noire :P

So, there are a few songs I really dug on here, "Spaceship", "Can't Leave You" (one of my favorites of the year), and "Nasty Things" (a highlight of the Wolf + Lamb vs Soul Clap mixcomp). I especially thought mixing in "Erotic City" after "Nasty Things" fit absolutely perfectly... before looking at the tracklist I wasn't at all sure how you'd fit in Prince and Talking Heads... but you did a splendid job of making it work.

Cheers.

This actually segues nicely into a short rant I was going to make to bump this thread, heh.

I'll try to be as succinct as possible, but basically what I'm trying to get at is that in my own opinion, and as the person who mixed this, I feel like this is maybe the most satisfied with a mix I have ever been.

I'm not trying to argue that it's objectively great, or even good, but I feel like it's the single most satisfying mix I've ever done. Everything that I wanted to do, some of which I've wanted to do for years, I accomplished.

From Robb's track to start, to the slow build into the Maxxi Soundsystem and Maceo Plex tunes, the abrupt change in pace with the Schwarz/Sasse tune, the filthy funk with a bit of standard techno, and of course, ending a set with one of my favorite tracks of all time. For me, this is who I've been trying to be as DJ for over a decade, and whether or not anyone else really likes it is irrelevant, at least in terms of how good I feel about it.

To have anyone enjoy it at all is an absolute bonus, and extraordinarily humbling. I don't do this anymore for any other reason than I can't imagine not (repost), and the fact that sets I put together are enjoyed by the community makes me very, very happy.

It's good to have an outlet. Thanks again guys.

Oh, also, I just started playing through LA Noire again. I really loved that game.

Gratuitous pre-week thread bump. STUART WILL NOT SUSPEND ME AS I FLAGRANTLY BREAK THE UNWRITTEN RULE OF TRANCE ADDICTS EVERYWHERE.

Well then, I guess I'm in.

This happened to my ears and I am quite pleased to say that I was quite pleased.

ear-semen

I rejoice at the notion of such prominent earholes treasuring my friendship. Good day to you, fine sirs.

Ah yes, as stated on facebook, I rather enjoyed said mix.
