013 Windmill Sessions Jan2008



A new year dawns....

Windmill Sessions returns for 2008 with more chilled, thoughtful melodic sets (and new picture!). This set is perhaps a little darker in tone than previous work overall, and I would love to hear any opinions guys! Roll on the track descriptions...

Miika Kuisma-Where Am I
Dark ambience greets the listener, slowly melodic whispers reveal themselves before melting away once more...
Miika Kuisma-Trying My New Wings
Distinctive atmospheric breakbeat, with a stirring and enigmatic melodic lead. Wonderful work from Kuisma's new album.
11.8-Sunrise
After the ominous opening the set lightens with the aptly named "Sunrise", as the warm melodious air washes over. Bouncey and blissful is how I'd describe this!
Micah-Greenstone
From the blissful melodies to the melancholic. "Greenstone" entices the listener with its guitar licks and deep atmosphere.
Stereok-Deep Desire (arthur deep erised mix)
Mysterious and beautiful, a reductive track that produces the goods after many a listen. A good precurssor to the next track also.
Cream Sound-New Friday (mango remix)
The first genuinely "happy" track of the mix synth-stabs rhythmically into being. The cut-up vocals are interspersed beautifully and, well, its a Mango production, need I say more!
Cbass+Mikobene-Terens Ferenz
From light to dark, the transition to the deeper, more driving section begins now. A perculiar track which carries the listener along its darkening path with wobbling melodies and distinctive percussion.
Christian Paduraru-Express Yourself (michael+levan remix)
Driving, atmospheric prog slowly reveals itself. Minimal in its delivery, but powerful in its impact with lovely layered melodic hints and ambience.
The Defender Droids-Boxing Day
Feet-moving basslines announce the arrival of this track. A great sense of atmosphere is conveyed throughout, with the first mildly-euphoric moment as the tune drops after a moving break.
Masque-Foresta
What sounds like classic old-skool sounding driving prog now. Technical competence is exhibited by Masque as he creates something emotional, funky, atmospheric and danceable.
Ariel Curtis-Escape Of Sound (michael+levan remix)
The pace continues as more dark, progressive is revealed, under-pinned by the hinted promise of trancy melodies.
Ferdy+Matt Van Wyk-I Am Guilty
Deep, smooth progressive trance begins your journey out of the darkness. Samlped vocals allow recognition while the melodies consume all after the break.
4Mal ft. Gliss-Time Is Burning
Big distinctive bass runs alongside thoughtful vocals as the set gears up for its conclusion with bucketloads of energy.
Shifted Reality-Fuerte (solesystem remix)
Retro latin-influenced throbbing sparkly trance, or something akin!
James Zabiela-Perseverance
A genuinely refreshing track to bring the mix to its culmination. You are able to lose yourself in this one as it builds to a suitably epic conclusion.

Perfect way to start Monday! I'm in!

Wow. Mint set, mate. I'll get a proper review up soon enough, but it will probably come this weekend. As always, this is quality. Shifted Reality-Fuerte (solesystem remix) is just I've GOT to get a set of CDJs. I can't find this kind of stuff on vinyl, I'm afraid.

just downloaded your new set - loved it! -x-

awesome! thanks

Apparently Dj Rebel is you man for that, though he favours the treble rather than the bass

Wicked mate, can't wait for your excellent reviews as always!

Its all about the digital age now I'm afraid, especially when concerned with "quality" music rather than the stuff from the big labels. Maybe you should play around with ableton?
