As I said on Facebook, this is in the queue to be listened to. Can't wait!

As expected, this was a boss mix man. No complaints. Haven't heard the Bicep tune in a mix yet even though I remember waiting for its release some time ago. Epic tune and the highlight of the mix for me.

The only minor thing I noticed was the transition from 6. Petar Dundov � Moving and 7. A Sagittariun - A Lucid Dream (Original Dream). Guess it could have been less abrupt. Oh and, the mix just sort of ended. It probably could have used a nice wrap-up tune, or a less sudden fade out. Just my 2 cents.

This mix will be finding a home on my iPod though for sure! Brilliant job.

Incredible mix, Adam! Some beautiful and atmospheric melodies on here... been listening to it all day! I like how you label the "sections" of the mix too, I think the mix does flow exactly like how they are stated. My only issue is how the mix just kinda ended unexpectedly, like George mentioned.

Hey thanks guys. I agree I did have a bit of a hard time choosing a last track to play, and given that I needed to submit the mix really soon, I just kind of settled on that. Not the ideal closing track but I think it works in a way nonetheless. I actually had a whole other mix recorded, but wasn't happy with it so I kinda put this together and recorded it in the span of just 2 days. It certainly wasn't an afterthought though - I wanted to make a mix with a lot of these tracks and overall I'm quite happy.

Re: the transition from Moving to A Lucid Dream - I agree it's a bit of a strange one but in terms of timing I think it works perfectly well. In general though I will agree that my approach to the transitions in the mix was entirely different than how it normally is, for the most part.

Again, thanks for listening, I'm glad you liked it guys!

Damn Adam, not that any of your recent sets have been bad or anything, but this is one of the best I've heard from you in a while. Really well put together.

I've been shying away from techno for a few months, but I really dig this more melodic sound. Well done, mate.

Wow! This mix is absolutely incredible. One of the best stuff i've heard this year.

Congratulations, Adam. Top notch
