ok i finally listened to this set again the whole way through and the mixing and everything was perfect and i enjoyed a couple of tracks, but for the most part, it was a little too deep for me and i felt like the tracks sounded too similar so it was like one long set of the same tone and i couldn't get into it.
i will definitely check out your next mix though this was my first mix from you. i guess i like it more when the genre switches up a little in sets.
this set is the type of CD i'd play in a clothing store or something. in fact, this is the type of stuff playing in most of the shops on lincoln road in sobe and it's cool for shopping to/background music. i just wouldn't put this on in the house or car and jam out to it.
hit me up with your next mix though and i'll check it out
*edit* woah that's weird we bumped this thread at the same time lol

i had to check this mix and i wasn't disappointed. I love deep house and tech house so it was easy to get me hooked! The Dixon striped down remix was my fav. cut btw

Thank you slylee for the thorough review , at the moment i'm really into drums and congas ,bongos etc so I understand what you meant when you said it sounded similar , on my behalf all I can say is that even though on almost all of the tracks there is those types of percussion instruments ,the tracks for the most part are different subgenres of EDM.
My normal style is to go deep , actually I'm way deeper than this...hehe but i'm trying to change that .
Thanks for letting me know this stuff is being played in Sobe ... my main goal is to actually have tiesto play my stuff ... oh wait .

I will def let you know about my next mix cheers
yea i've always had a hard time listening to a deep set all the way through. pretty sure it's my ADD still lol need to throw in a few surprises in between the deep songs otherwise i'll dose off or lose interest. i definitely liked some of the tracks in your set though and i'm also a fan of congas and drums and that overall latin sounding edm...just a little harder. it really is hit or miss with me when it comes to deep house/tech house songs.
jay's ADD & Chimichuri set has a song like that and i'm obsessed with it. i'll have to figure out which one it is. has male vocals saying "vamos chicas latinas". u know which one i'm talking about?
and yea lincoln road on sobe plays a lot of deep house in the cafes and restaurants and shops. i mean it's been a while since i've been down there but that's how it was when i used to go regularly.

I have to say this mix on some parts sounds like Juan Pachanga but without the genital wart ofcourse
the track your a looking for is " Mihalis Safras, NoiDoi - Chicas latinas " and i agree with you its a catchy motherfookin song .
Next time I'm thinking of doing a dub techno mix with more diva vocals and less african chants I think it will interesting and surprising to listen too .
