4Mal-Grey Walls (4mal's electroacoustic ocean mix) w/ Z.O.E-You Need This Done To You (edit)
To kick off proceedings is a great little downtempo number by the consistent producers 4mal. Lovely natural soundscapes and acoustic guitar strumming in this. To help with the transition into the next track an ambient section was added at the end to provide a bit more depth to the sound.
Ljungqvist+Lansberg-Perhaps Another Time
I have been wanting to use this in my sets for a long time now. Beautifully chilled and serene stuff.
Matthew Adams-No More, Anymore! (elusive remix)
Continuing the slow, thoughtful opening to the mix is this wicked breakbeat track. Melancholic and uplifting at the same time, its a great interpretation of the original.
Joel Armstrong ft. Derek Kehler-Runaway Reject
The mix then explodes into life with this huge breakbeat track which blew me away from the very 1st listen. Melodic, energetic and featuring some really nice vocal talents; all swept along by some serious low-end!
Espen+Elusive-Albatross Confessions
Smooth and contemplative is how I would describe this track. Good use of a piano lead creates a very relaxing atmosphere.
Jay Lumen vs. Tobias Hoppe-One Moment(a dawn on the beach mix)
Maintaining the chilled ambience and smooth transitions now with a track that has steadily grown on me. Subtle melodies and a great atmosphere on this one.
Naveen G-Roots Grow Deep
The mix then moves into slightly darker territory but still retaining the melodic sensibilities. Great use of natural instruments in this track and a goosebump inducing melodic lead after the break.
Ray+Peter-Spacesuit
Spacey atmospherics in this record as the title suggests. Warm synths retain the flow as the mix introduces trancier elements.
Native ft.Ani-Transport (4Mal's whiteroad mix)
THis track signals an increase to the pace. A superb deep feel combined with one of those 'special' breakdowns.
Madoka-Distant Memories
A classic prog-trance record by Madoka as the trancier and darker tones grow. Really innovative use of the pitched vocals in evidence here.
Dale Anderson+Keenan-Promises
The mix now reaches its 'trance' peak with the track 'Promises'. Energetic basslines and a strong lead all provides a great melodic production.
Benz+MD-Dead Calm
To finish the mix is the kaleidoscope of melodies and brilliant bassline action of Benz and MD's 'Dead Calm'. A great, uplifting closer.
Any comments will be fantastic and greeted like mana from heaven b0$H
