I don't have the set with me at work, but IIRC, there was a part in the middle where the producer lopped off all the beautiful energy (as grungy, dirty and rough as the energy was, still sounded great), placed in about 10 seconds or more or dead-air . I take this as the equivalent of placing a soft, romantic country-rock type of track into a GOA/PSY mix, it just shouldn't ever happen!

Of course, well over 99% of the world has got different taste than my own, but it will never sound right, no matter the producer, unless they avoid the dead-air syndrome which is very prevalent (sp?) in trance music.

I'll check the track again once I find some free time, but I'm sure that's what made me angry. Especially since without the absence of beats in those moments, it could've been a fantastic track.

BTW, there's nothing wrong with mixing "Trance" and "Progressive". I mix genre's (Usually PSY/GOA + whatever else fits) whenever I put mixes together, and they usually work out pretty good IMO.

**I'm not sure if you've ever heard Flowjob - Run Baby Run (Big Escape Version) [2006], but this is one Progressive/PSY track that handles the 'dead-air' lull of typical trance tracks really well. Plus I think you should add it to your playlist as I can't find a way to mix this one.

Anyway, time for a quick smoke and then back to work :\

Cheers,

THC
