Hi! A bit late mix this month. Also a bit different style (contrary to the previous mix). This time soothing trance and mild progressive trance. The title is a word game with Lounge and Laundry, so you know what to expect. At first I wasn't sure about the outcome, but after a complex experience of the mix I must say it totally relaxes you. The intro perfectly illustrates the theme. Beautiful guitar from Roads, then Sunlounger bassline. Kirsty Hawkshaw's track was kinda build-around track - the most important one, was my inspiration. Lyrics are pure wisdom and the vocal is amazing. Later, Leama and Moor tune (lots of sound of this duo throughout the mix). After that Serge Devant, the mix is evolving constantly, but slowly. Danceable part. With Atlantis and especially Sounds Rushing (masterpiece) we're turning into progressive vibes. After that comes Signum and my mashup of Niklas Harding - Butterfly Effect (Lucas & Beltram Remix) with Deep Orbit - Revolver (Genix Deep Remix). You could experience 'mood crisis' in this part because of deeper sounds. But we're returning from a dead-end street again with little help from Leama and Moor. The classic U Write The Rules makes a great contribution here. I slightly refreshed it (hopefully?). Defiance track is brilliant chill trance, but works here as a filler I guess. Now my favourite transition into Eclipse. Barely noticable. Try to examine it The mix ends with two pure progressive trance killers, because it's peak time (right metatron? ). Joni's track is at least as good as Bali (which I'm a fan of), while Algarve means phatt uncompromising tune

This set starts off with the all too familiar Portishead track which never gets old and then strikes gold for the first 50 minutes. The last 30 minutes could have been better structured, but the point is I love the way you mix bro. It’s so damn creative and people should download this, if not for the music, do it for the mixing. The mashups also add to the overall quality with Revolver being my personal favorite. Keep up the great work Mon-Soon and I’ll keep coming back!

I love this first track, will listen to the rest soon, thanks alot!
djx2, I'm glad you enjoyed it. About the drop off, yeap. I was aware of it. I wanted to include these tracks so badly, that I convinced myself that lounge kind of mix does not have to build up steadily. lol.
alefort, cool. If you had a chance to listen to Atrum, leave your thoughts in its thread. It would be appreciated
Ryarni, hehe, keep updating after every track, lol. j/k
Eager to hear your feedback! Cheers for that
haha Well its an excellent mix mate, Ive not heard anything like it before either and I love to hear new things. Its so nice to relax too and Im definaltely going to burn this to cd for my car.
Just Be is Is that a remix? Not sure if Ive heard it before..
This cd will certainly get alot of listens from me, recommended for sure
thanks Pepa! love to hear that
I have Revolver Effect as a separate track. I'll put it online for you. That is a great opener in my opinion. I remember Armin once used Butterfly Effect in this remix for an opener in ASOT 193 or so. Revolver provides even more catchy sounds!
