looks like quality to me

what mix of dark suite? i prefer the wally lopez mix myself

Im starting to realy like the walley lopez mix not sure which i should use though. i think Dr kuchos is a bit darker and the vocals seem a bit more powerfull.

Just coz the toones arent played at 150 bpm with a pure whistle possy movement flow to them doesnt make them boring. Toons dont have to have some big black wookie slut screaming about the love of her life and how she never realised her love untill it was gone. Stick to dave pearce dude, you know you love it.

Back to the tracklist. Battle Weapon 6 looks a bit out of place dude, I dred to think what it sounds like being mixed with Emerald

I think this would enable the greatest intrest and flow :

Dark suite - Dark suite piano(dr kucho's weekend mix)
IIO - at the end (scumfrog mix)
bedrock - emerald(charlie may mix)
Bjork - all is full of love(cass mix)
Pole folder and cp - dust (james zabiela mix)
Timo maas - help me (deep dish mix)
Junkie XL - breezer
Slide Vs the Hive
Dot alison - were only science
chemical brothers - Electronic battle weapon 6

Hope i helped a little dude, I think i have created what would be a easy flowing prog house set, enjoy my freind

It really depends on how you want your set to sound. Given that you have lots of big tracks in there, you could build your set by placing mellow tracks in the beginning and work your way up to harder tracks. Also, try to throw in some not-so-huge tracks in between for transition.

I would definitely start with Dr. Kucho's remix of Dark Sweet Piano, and start from the vocal breakdown part. Sasha opened with it in his earlier essential mix and it was wicked.

Great tracklist and good luck!

yeah emerald and ebw6 throw it off zabs mix of dust flows sooooooo good into bjork its not even funny....its kinda of the midpoint of the set, because the zab's mix of dust will prolly peak everyone out as it is realy realy jamming then the bjrok cools down the floor...following that is emerald which begins to warm it up....but then ebw6 peaks it out again. it all blends smooth ...but will this give me a good atmosphere for a demo. During a normal club session i normaly will peak out with some realy class breaks. and im not sure i wanna toss some breaks on this.
