Hmm. Thanks for the praise, first of all lol. I'm glad you enjoyed it!
But the transitions were short? I let every song play out, practically, except for Of Course, which I admit I did barely use.
Still, glad you enjoyed it and thanks for listening
i mean the actual transitions between songs, i love the fact that u let the tracks play, anything else with this music doesnt feel right, hehe... Really enjoy listening to this still, so many memories from way back...
I've been listening to music like crazy lately as I've just returned to the scene...however I was really excited when I saw your mix posted as dark prog. I used to live for this sort of music and come from a mainly tech-trance and prog background when I was new to the music.
That said, the track selection is superb. Exactly what I needed to hear to revitalize me after work today...I miss these sounds so much, lots of great tracks.
I don't know if I'd agree with what someone said earlier about the mixes being short. I felt that they weren't so much brief as they were abrupt at times. Other than that the mixing was good.
The techniques used lent a positive air to the mix with mostly seamless blends. The best mixes are often those in which the mixes aren't very apparent. In this case the tracks you've chosen speak for themselves creating a very strong overall vibe.

Wow. Fine praise indeed. Thank you very much, I'm glad you enjoyed it!
I do have to say, to be fair, that it's the quality of the music that makes this so good, I played but a small part (though technically isn't that the whole idea?).

No problem! And we could discuss the philosophy of DJ'ing all day
By the way feel free to check out my mix To Saturn and Back for a similar vibe (perhaps a bit less on the prog side).

I am honestly astounded by how many people have played and downloaded this. I'm going to assume that people are definitely enjoying it based on the positive feedback and the lack of negative feedback!

Great track selection, brings back memories. Over all pretty good, beatmatching needs some work though.

Wow, thanks! I'd love to take credit, but it's all the music. I love Heaven Scent - > Beautiful Strange, and I thought I Wish You Were Here just mixed in perfectly with Beautiful Strange. I think it turned out very, very well.
