he fourth volume of the 'At the Controls' series will be mixed by French electroist Agoria.
Agoria is known for his noisy, eclectic take on dance music, as demonstrated on his big singles 'Les Beaux Jours' and ‘Stereolove’ as well as last year's longplayer 'The Green Armchair'. As a DJ, Agoria is inclined to throw a few curveballs into his mixes: his debut mix CD 'Cute & Cult' dropped Iggy Pop's 'Nightclubbing' halfway through, while his 2CD 'At the Controls' mix features tracks by fifties electronic whiz Raymond Scott and goth rockers Bauhaus amid more up-to-the-minute techno and house selections.
The 'At the Controls' series has previously featured volumes by James Holden, M.A.N.D.Y. and Claude Von Stroke.

FARK YEAH! Im amped, possibly the first mix compilation im quite excited to hear about in a while
Total respect to a DJ/producer who doesn't self promote, and no its not a bad thing (anticipating flaming) its just something thats a bit uncommon imo.
Some nice looking tunes in there I actually like Holdens...

Oh yeah, I remember now. Yeah, I heard it I think once and it was gash, and Mandy's had no flow whatsoever. Holden's I liked though, even when it went through drastic tempo changes.
Never heard an Agoria mix, and the tracklist looks interesting enough. Some tracks I'm kinda tired of, but it looks like it could be eclectic enough.

I rate Agoria as a producer, and this looks like a very interesting tracklist. I'm really looking forward to this one..

Agoria has really come along as a producer in the last while. Looking forward to see what he comes up with for this mix comp.
Having 'Fairmont - Flight Of The Albatross' in it is a good sign....what a beautiful track.

He said in some interview that the concept of his ATC mixes was several friends getting together, hanging out, and just playing some good tracks. The mixing and flow on there definitely isn't the smoothest but after reading that it was easier for me to get past the mixing. It's now one of my all time favourite mix compilations.

Tracklist looks kinda neat though.

And for the record, Holden's ATC had a couple flaws but was still *great*.
