The 3rd transition needed more input, after that, the set was unbelievable. I couldn't believe that some of these tracks were that good until I heard them in your set. After listening i went and bought me that funabashi remix, setting sun, and that stoneboy track. Btw, your mixing and transitions are still flawless, good work here. Looking forward to another mix Metatron. Cheers, John

thanks man. appreciate the scores and the input. yeah, fell into some really great new tracks that came together nicely. glad i could share the goodness. will definately look forward to your next mix comp!

Track one and two do the job of opening up the set well but as stand alone tracks they are pretty weak IMO. Track 3 is really very good , great production and melody ideas although the mix sounded a little flat going into this that is being very picky. The rest builds well to a likely conclusion of wailing synths and drum rolls but as a whole was very entertaining. well done mate.

hehehe, 'likely conclusion of wailing synths and drum rolls'. love your very 'clinical' reviews. cheers mate. thanks.

First of all congrats dude!

I must say i'm a fucking Trance lover, but usually my thing is between 138 and 142 BPM...

tonight i was in search of something smooth... what a great set

i like most of the tracks, but i'm really on love with the 8th one, Stoneboy - Bewitched To See The Sun (Summer Rain Mix)

i tried discogs, no Stoneboy listed... do you know if the track is released?

thanks!

got the track off beatport.com. there's actually three different mixes of that track, the original, this one, and a mix by CO3.

Hey MEtraton, got ot listen your set finally =)

The start i'ts very nice, and you are right about the Funabashi remix, That track is Awesome, it really brings a lot of Energy to the mix.
the third track it's also very nice, and well mixed, then the Gabriel batz track I think ti brings the energy down, and witht he 4th track it remains the same, then with precious you start lifting me up again, and the progression it's veyr nice till the end.
wow open your eyes, had like 20 years I didnt listen to that track jaja, what a great song, it really brings back a lot of memories, and the last track it's a great ending.

Great Mixing Skills =)

Thanks Mate

Phenominal work. Grade A stuff.

I love it.

As expected, excellent mix man. Exquisite track selection. The opening track does a great job at setting the mood, although it gets a bit harder towards the end. Good stuff.

Tracks that caught my attention are Angkor What, Fusion 2006, Inamorata, Spaced, Setting Sun, and My Precious. This last one I have been listening to more often. But Spaced is great too. I think it's between these two for the price of favorite out of the mix.

What more can I say? You do a good job at lining up the tracks, not just in this one but also in previous ones. Surely you must spend a lot of time thinking about the line-up.

Also, I couldn't remember whether or not I had listened to Open Your Eyes. It's a good tune but I just couldn't remember.

I enjoyed the mix and will do so more in the days to come. Once again, excellent mix.

nice man thanks! yeah a few folx have said the upper mid section is a bit dull. my purpose with those tracks was to ground the mix with some darker driving almost house type tracks. i tend to do that with most of my sets. but, these tracks were kind of strange; i will concur. i love them a lot. they didn't really hit me at first now i really think that they make the set. idk, anyway thanks a bunch, glad you liked it. yes! Open Your Eyes is a classic in my eyes. the odyssy mix is the somewhat more underused mix but when reviewing all of the mixes i found that one to be the most enticing as well as have the exact features i wanted to fit in the set.
again thanks.

Hey thanks man. I like hearing your comments because it seems that we have similar tastes. Or at least your someone who can appreciate the different spectrums of trance, prog trance and even house. You have a very open mind for music. you also seem to relate to my style well, which helps . anyway thanks for the generous comments and hope you keep listening and keep an open mind.
