Really enjoyed this mix; well done. I guess I got lucky since I just randomly clicked on a link in the DJ Promotion forum and took a listen.
IMO, the Coldcut track at the end might have been better at the start of the mix, and ending rather with the Planisphere tracks. However this idea might not sound as good in practice.

Just took a listen:
The set starts very epic even though it has an ambient feel on the first tracks but I feel it that way. Nice intro.
The set as a whole is very chilling, even though at 46 min you introduced a more banging tune but still it remained to me that way. Very melodic, very emotional and touchy. I feel I am on the beach!
Its a cool way to change the styles all over as well since I actually got bored at some points but soon after you changed the style. I love diverse sets.
Only remark is that the mixing is a bit ropey and there are some key clashes here and there but since the music flows good together this wasnt a main problem, just a technical issue.
Overall I had a great time listening to this! Very good set, thanks for the share!

This CD is loaded with uplifting, energetic, blood moving tracks intricately mixed with angelic perfection. From that moment on, I could feel the magik flowing through my veins while listening to the music that Tijs carefully samples and produces. His creativity allows him to develop the concepts of songs that bring life and energy to people around the world.

downloaded the set & i absolute love it. good work mate
i use itunes to play my music, so there was an album art gap i needed to fill for this set (i usually just place in a picture of the dj for mixes) but for this one i simply needed a beach setting to set the vibe so i ended up making one of my own real quick:
tossing it up here in case anyone else is like me & needs album art. if you don't like it then make your own dammit oh & i realize it's a big picture but whatever. hah.
once again great set man!

Cheers for all the replies,really appreciated - looks like this was a popular mix,i had a lot of fun putting it together and was really excited about constructing a mix in the whole 'Essential Mix' theme..
JM-8 : cheers for the comments,yeah i thought the coldcut track suited the very end of the mix,something about the vocals : ''and i miss you most of all,when autumn leaves start to fall' - just gave a nice outro to it..
THE_Chris : i'll try and re-upload my Brian Eno mash-up when i get time
trancechan : cheers for the cover design hehe,im actually working on one myself aswell with tracklist
Hey, I just wanted you to know that I REALLY enjoyed the set. It has a massiveness about it. It is beautiful and makes my imagination afire. Thank you so much you are an inspiration!
