Yes, ASOOT 25 was the one I'm thinking of... Max Graham showed him good.
Your mixing is a bit better... no major trainwrecks, but there are still phrasing problems. When you count beats in a song (since trance is generally in 4/4), your brain instinctively counts 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,etc. In actuality, the phrasing may last much longer than 8 beats... usually 32 or 64 in trance music. The idea is to start the incoming track at the same position in the phrasing as the track you're mixing out of. ie... if you cue a song in position 1 of a phrase (ie when the crash cymbal hits), then you press play when the other track is in position 1 (so you press play on track 2 when the crash cymbal hits in track 1).
Another problem that I noticed is that you're not killing/eqing out the basslines when you're mixing 2 tracks together. During your first transistion, you can hear the bassdrums interfering (getting loud and quiet due to the superposition of the two waveforms). The general tactic is to get rid of one of them while mixing or eq the basslines seperately. Never have 2 BDs over each other without some kind of filter/limiter/or something.
