my knowledge of darkpsy has been restricted to a few track and i know it's quite hard to listen to. this mix wasn't an easy listen on the first attempt because i wasn't paying that much attention and it's then just fast pulsating drum and twisted warping sounds. on the second attempt i was quite focused on the mix and it was quite a nice ride. really intense but nice. the fast direction really has you pinned to the ground and i was feeling it, the ending was a nice touch aswell.
overall it's one of those things that you really liked but really didn't want to hear again any time soon.

Yeah, I was almost considering not even posting this, I was afraid it wouldn't reflect music in a classical or normal sense, but I thought that actually might be a good thing, so I posted it anyways. This is definitely a one-and-done mix, I know I don't plan on listening to it all the way through anytime soon. Thanks for listening, buddy!
Very mind-melting. Pretty much that sums up my review. The last tracks were almost unbearable but I managed to stay alive for a few more minutes. Also quite good dark-psy track selection, almost no boring tunes (a lot of today's dark-psy is completely dull). Quality here though! Cheers

Suprisingly our taste in darkpsy is a lot closer than in full on. An actually good darkpsy mix, I think this is one of the two I've downloaded (along with cybernetika's warpcore 3) out of like 7.
I was finally able to give this a listen last night in promised conditions.. Wow.
I knew I was in for something crazy, but I never knew that dark psy can actually sound this good. Always liked this style in small doses. Like someone before I was pleasantly surprised by how melodic it sounds. Even with the completely insane BPM it sounded well. I liked how the BPM suddenly went way up at ~50 mins.. This probably wouldn't work with other genres, but darkpsy is meant to be mind bending. I didn't notice any problems with mixing, all transitions were nice from what I remember. Track selection = excellent. Really enjoyed some of them. The last track had a somewhat chilling effect somehow. The flow was gre.. Look I have nothing bad to say about this set, it was great!
Not something I will listen to weekly but it is one of the most unique and good sets I've heard. And I will def. keep it in my archive.
It was a really nice ride in the dark, really trippy mind bending stuff. I'm still shocked, scared, paranoid, pumped....
You should try it too.
Cheers man!

Outstanding! Glad you enjoyed it, yeah this whole set is something else entirely. Thanks for listening. Was it cold? Did you bring the cans? Anything weird or interesting happen along the way?
