I have bloom, involver, fundacion, balance 005, and a zillion other awesome mix cds.

They are the only "sets" i listen to, other than stuff from the DJ promotion forum, and my own stuff.

Only Involver and Balance005 imo. I can`t remember anything else.

Bloom is reeeeally smooth, but in some cases the mixes feel like they're dragging on too much.

The mixing on Fundacion is technically good, but I found the album just boring on the whole.

Ferry's Passport has decent mixing (especially CD 2). Long smooth transitions, which is reflected by the fact that there are only 9 tracks per CD, instead of short 30 second mixes like his Creamfields CD.

Most of the more commercial mix CD's nowadays will tend to focus more on the amount of tracks they can fit on the disc, rather than the mixing.


Quality not quantity!

You think? I hear that quite a lot and I just don't agree. I've listened to it many times and I love the overall mood and feel of the set.

Armin van Buuren - Basic Instinct CD 1

Armin van Buuren - In Motion CD 1

Oakenfold - Travelling CD 1

Forbidden Paradise 12 - Changing Colors

just some of my favorites..

Involver is something special though, since Sasha teamed up with Barry Jamieson (Evolution) Junkie XL, and Charlie May (Spooky) to remix alot of the tracks on Involver.. which is an unique CD in the duration 1-8 imo.. while the 2 last tracks seems like uneccesary filler.. maybe 1 of 10 likes em though

I suggest u go buy Airdrawndagger, which isnt a mix, but still a great journey..

Politics of Dancing 1 and 2


although 1 was much better they are both pretty flawless with the continuous percussion
