Generally enjoyed this Dave, although there were a few minor hiccups. That transition was indeed a piece of bad fortune - could you not have released the loop and started it again a couple of bars later? I also had it in my head that you were going to mix First Light into Utopia, which is a favoured combination of mine, so I was a bit affronted by that Prana tune in the middle that wasn't as driving as either. I feel that if those two moments had been different, the set would have made a more spectacular ending, whereas at the moment it's merely rather enjoyable.

Last summer I moved out of London to the shires and this installment has been heavily influenced by my recent wintery morning commutes from sleepy country town to bustling capital. Starts off quite bleary eyed and proggy before getting a bit more energetic and raucous in the final third before winding down at the end. There's a lot of melody here, in fact you could almost go as far as calling it a trance mix, I mean if you wanted to.

I've also tried to take on board some of the criticism of previous episodes. Really appreciate you guys taking the time to both listen and to comment! One of the things this commute affords me is time to plan so I'd say this is probably more polished than some of the others.

Thank you!

I greatly enjoyed this, as I always do. I must be getting old, however, because I didn't really feel that it began 'quite bleary eyed!' Though, relatively, it does of course start to really bounce along around 36 minutes in.

I particularly enjoyed the Candyland -> Cover Me section and then the Lava -> Swarm ending. The Lava -> Sacred Cycles transition was particularly tasty.

Hope your commute isn't too rough!

Nice one, Dave! Lots of bouncy, bubbly, kinetic energy sizzling through the first 90 minutes of this one, progressing in various mini-peaks and mini-valleys. The last 15-20 min are warm down but definitely needed after all the action you packed in there. Like talking with an old friend, this mix carries your distinct energetic trademark, and it was a pleasure to listen to. Here's to as many more as you can stand to make!

As always, Dave, very, very nice. Not sure I think the Patrice Baumel is a good add to the 'Perfect Motion' stable - it's not bad, but Boys Own slays it - but the whole set worked really nicely. As I've told Jon, I'm very sad I couldn't catch up with you chaps at Fabric last month, as I had been looking forward to that for a while. But this was very nice.

Also, I'm really, really sorry for being pedantic, please don't hate me, but 'Calling Your Name' is from Musicnow Records, not Global Underground.

Hope you and your family are well/healthy/safe and that I see you again soon

Great addition mate. Absolutely loved the last 30 mins or so. I've always played the Airwave mix of Ultrafoxx, but that Monojoke mix is the tits!
