I started working on this mix about a month ago when Matthias Matthew (better know as Quadlow on TA) asked me to do a mix for his new night, Migrashun. I finished the tracklist fairly quickly, mixed it in one take in ableton, then sent it off. After handing it off, I kept coming back to it to add a tool, rework a section, or experiment with the rain theme by adding different samples and fx. In this sense I guess you could say its a blend of a live mix and a studio mix. What came out as the final product is 20 minutes longer than the original, and has two climaxes. I got this idea while seeing Paco Osuna @ Hed Kandi this past WMC. His set was full of driving, percussive techno then after two hours, he sort of wound things down with a serious drop in energy. The party wasn't over though, Paco just kicked it into afterhours mode from there. I thought this was a pretty cool idea, and so I tried to bring that feeling through in this mix.

I'm not expecting that this mix will be for everyone, and you've certainly got to be in the right mood to listen to it. Regardless, enjoy the tunes and please let me know your thoughts.

"A studio environment is there to be exploited. I don't really hold with these 'all live on 2 decks mixes'. If you want that, go to the gig." - Ben Watt
