Just got done listening to this mix at work. Nice flow, great tracks, the mixing is ace as usual. Only thing though, I don't see it as a "summery set". Maybe we have different views of a summer vibe, but when I think summer, I think the beach, the sun, kick ass day parties. So I was thinking this would be some funky, moving, paolo mojo-ish/pete tong hybrid of good time vocals and fat bass. Just didn't deliver that way

Or maybe it's because WMC is over and now i'm expecting all the funkier, big room stuff to be making it's way into people's demos

Then what is my mix then? Thanks bas, I'm glad you enjoyed it even know it wasn't what you thought it would be .. Everyone is backwards in LA anyways...

Thanks stren! I've really been getting kind of "sick" of the really digital sounds constantly, so I've been tryng to get that organic sound.. its tough sometimes, but It came together on this one! Cheers!

WHATEVER! We're not backwards, YOU guys are backwards! What with your cows, and you're mango kulfi...and yeah like I said. "Summery" to me means higher energy funkeh house. But still a great mix Scorchio made my day at work awesome.

Originally posted by Allied Nations I have grown very close to this city and made some really good freinds which will be VERY hard to leave behind... I have became a DJ here. WHen i started spinning in Peru I had nothing- no direction, not perspective, nada- being here in a small scene has really allowed me to take the time necessary to look for my sound (havent found it yet, but I'm getting closer everytime I mix). the Tim Paris track pwns btw so go away kthnx. I thought you miss queen of the boom bada ba tinka tonk donk diddly wang wong would hate this sort of sound- Thnaks for bearing down and gritting me ! It's a shame you won't be in Sevilla, but one day we will meet... and our curly hair will unite in a ball of fire leaving us both bald but amused. Thanks again!

actually no! I rate this one as one of your tops. I don't know what's happening I think I've become bored with the boom splick tings. It's so nice to hear full sound again, like eating homegrown cherry tomatoes for the first time.

i think it is a summermix, but not in the really in your face type, the big hed kandi/defected sounds to much even if is summer anthem stuff, this mix is more of the laidback approach. something you would play if ever being on the beach 'til 9pm and just soaking in the sun until it's time to go back to the place to get ready to go bump in the night.

and once again
Crosses (Hulkkonen Mix) = OMG TUNE
Scorchio = one big mother of a tune.

very very good! pretty nice mixing and a fucking fabulous tracklist. i really like the mood it's providing, you know. as good as every song in the mix is something that i'd enjoy separately, and i'm having trouble finding mixes that 'has that'. thumbs up for this - it's the best i've heard in a while and to end it all with scorchio... ace! thanks man

btw, you should give metro area - orange alert (dfa remix) a listen. imo it's better than the original

w00t downloading now.

downloading now...your mixes are always top knotch Greg, lookin forward to this one

Amazing mix man, the beginning makes me think of a lazy late evening in Bombay, the city sluggish from the intense heat and humidity. As the mix progresses I get the image of a city stirring as the heat subsides. In this way it feels very summery to me, not the traditional Western summer, but a summer on the other side of the world.

Amazing tracks, amazing mixing; this is your best yet that I have listened to!

I love it. Its like listening to an anime where there is a series of snapshots of a heat so oppressive that it weighs the soul down. Heat moves through the air, and people dont.

Then at the 7 minute marker there is movement. A young hero awakens.

Would also be a good return from the best time of your life song. Just a thoughtful reverie of what was and how youre changed.

I love it!

can't wait to check this one properly this weekend. cheers mate.

Bro, i've heard all of your promo's and for me- this one is by far my favorite!!!!!!!!!!!!!
