I've finally got around to listening to this enough times to have made my mind up on it. It's got all the hall marks of a Jack Moss set. Lots of lush melody and atmosphere, steady flow and build - I could really copy and paste the things I like about your sets each time. Also, as usual there is at least one absolute whopper that I immediately crate on beatport and buy within a week. Close your Eyes had Alive, Return to Eden had Fire Signs, Ascension had Bound for Ascension, Distant Places had Stone Cold, and this has Chemical Illusion.
However, this ain't the best of the above 5 sets (of similar genres). What lets it down for me is almost the lack of variety. Sometimes I do think that you can compromise your set by having too much flow. To borrow one of your expressions, I thought the first 2 tunes were a bit too tracky, though the third one brings things up nicely. It kicks off a bit after Tyra, but unfortunately it's probably only by one gear when it should have been by 2. Also, that's the only duff transition in the set. It's ever so slightly out of time and the bass is a bit jarring when it finally drops (this is only by comparison to the rest of the mixing
Also, I thought 'This is Where' should have come a bit sooner :-p
