Ive always been a fan of D&B but never knew where to pluck my fruits from. I've had this friend (Chris Calderon ) whom i used to work with and all we ever spoke about was dance music but he was a bigger D&B aficionado. A few years later he decides to send me a ton of his personal favorite D&B tracks and I pick the ones i feel compliment each other well and others I really enjoyed. This set was mixed in Ableton Live 8.2.1. Since i'm currently in between school terms and activiated to work on a ship out here in california, i was able to spend an accumulated 27 hours editing the mix trying to bring it as close to perfect as i could. The way i mixed it is far different than my past mixes since ive taken the mixing ive been doing on serato with MIDI controllers and traditional EDM mixing with the eq'ing and such. Overall there is some of track modification in between mixing and such but outside of that its the usual calm introduction then it works its way to peak out in the end without being too overwhelming (we all know how overwhelming peak time D&B can get...) Anywho, ENJOY !
Rate, Review and Criticize Please!
1. Jakatta - American Dream Intro
2. Eclipse - Feels So Right
3. Calculon Kelly Dean - Premonition (Stunna Rmx)
4. ATP - Don't Stand Still
5. Random Movement, Redeyes, Mutt - How Manys Ways
6. Blade - Bayou Blues
7. Netsky - Your Way
8. Netsky - Eyes Closed
9. Mutated Forms Jenna G - Last Time
10. London Elektricity - Just One Second
11. McLean – Finally In Love (Camo & Crooked Remix)

Now you know darn well i like being illusive. I'm that fool you'd catch bringin a cup of lipton or some mess into the club, sittin in a dark corner; off by my lonesome, bobbin my head in appreciation of some track being played. Then again, i haven't been to a good show in a long while.
I listened to the mix the whole way through earlier. Off first listen i like it quite a bit. It's got this uplifting all enveloping happiness to it. Whatever track you got going on at 27 minutes is what really kicked it into overdrive for me. Makes me get all locked in and introspective. I'd love to be listening to this mix sitting on a bench (with a roof over it of course) while watching rain fall; and just think.
I appreciate the whole mix, builds up nicely and then i get lost in it the rest of the way through.
That closing track ends it nicely as well. Nice to see you post another mix man.

Awwww now don't tell me most TXTAs don't like d&b. Nobody posts a quality mix in here for a while and now ya'll wanna stay quiet. But no, when some one starts a thread about some one dressin up like a giant aardvark at a company potluck ya'll all wanna jump on the band wagon and throw your 2 cents in. Triflin heathins.
Either that or no one gets on lately.

I love when you drop that "Netsky - Your way" track. Insane ethereal track. Really good mix man. I think i've listened to it about 5-7 times now. I'm hooked.
