Enjoyed this mix for the most part. It took a while to get going - I've never liked the Chab remix of Union Jack and felt it just ruined the early flow here. After that it really picked up. I've wanted to use Cobalt in a mix since I heard that album, and I thought you slotted it in really well. The middle stretch was very nice, good tunes and good flow, but I felt the mix got a bit lost again during the stretch with the Kintar tracks, before finishing on a very nice track.
The mixing was very good - smooth, perfectly EQ'd and all in key.
Thanks for the fairly positive review, glad you liked it for the most part.
Already tried to include Cobalt in a previous mix as well, but didn't work out. Even here I struggled to find the right placement and had to trick a bit with the EQ to make the transition out from Erosion sound smooth.
However as you pointed out I struggled the most to find a track to follow-up after SBK - Visit Venus, in fact the first Kintar track was a late inclusion and even though the mix improved with it over a previous version, I still think there has to be a better track out there to place at number 16 but couldn't find it.
