Thanks mate. I think the Deep Space Organisms track is the thing at the start - I really love DSO and have wanted to play some of their stuff for ages, but their tracks are so idiosyncratic it's almost impossible to put them into a mix. If you play a DSO track, it's always going to be different to everything around it, and this remix was on Bedrock and is probably their most conventional track ever. Playing those semi-experimental ASC and DSO tunes at the start was the only way I could live with putting out another otherwise standard prog set, and if it comes at the concession of perfect flow, I'll live with it. |
Yea fair play - it's clear you really wanted to play that tune, and like I said, it was a very clever way to get it in there. The mix out of it is good, but the fact that you change bpm rapidly in the first transition and then change from breaks to a standard 4x4 beat in next one just makes the flow a little uneaven at the start there. If the mix had continued to shift genres in that way aferwards it would have been great actually! But as you concede, its a standard (but excellent) prog mix afterwards, so it just feels like the intro that doesn't 100% match. Just my opinion of course

Not sure what your technical issues are, though. |
Do you know what, on second listen there is only one remotely rough transition. It's the one at around 30.00 and its not that bad at all. I think it just stood out on first listen because I was really getting captivated by the mix and it snapped me out of it a bit when the beats phase. It's very good mixing on the whole, with tunes that aren't necessarily easy to mix. Just not quite as silky as your prog breaks set
