first transition was nice, maybe switched the basses 1 phrase too early... but its mostly by preference i guess.
2nd transition was also good... tracks didn't fit all too well.. but u made it sound nice nonetheless
3rd transition was not as good.... beats were starting to drift..
4th transition was more messy... beats drifted much more... phantom manor is much darker tune compared to circuits... if your doing a transition between a lighter track and darker one... it might be better to make a shorter tighter mix as opposed to trying and make it long and smooth.
5th transition... these two tracks fit pretty well.... mixed over at a good point.
6th transition... good... sounded like hithats were drifting at the very very end... but only noticeable to a dj perhaps..
7th transition... great mix into in-silence
8th transition... it sounded pretty good.... but i kinda feel that a lot of the energy way lost because u let in-silence run till the end and mixed it in at the beginning of love comes again. in a club i can see it working really well. but for a demo mix that people listen in their car or headphones... i wouldn't do that (my opinion tho). on the technical side it was a good mix tho.
9th mix ... tracks fit well... but beats were a tad bit off.
10th mix... hehe...yea.. u did mess on that one... beats were off.... honestly tho... i dunno if those tracks would fit.... it seems like the harmonics between the two are very off.. maybe consider another track? or putting it somewhere else in the mix.

overall i liked the flow.. from trancy to harder techier. most of your mixes were good... except a couple i noted above... hope my input helps....

p.s. i'll be posting a mix in a couple days so maybe you could review mine too...

nice review, thankx alot. I noticed most of the things you pointed out. I will rework on those things, hopefully no more screw ups....
