The Violet Crown Sessions

Ok, I've been here quite sometime now, and I usually hang out in the Amateur forum to promote these mixes, but since I am from good ol' Texas, I thought I'd bring them over here and shine some light on what I've been doing for the past 3 months.

"The drawing-rooms of one of the most magnificent private residences in Austin are a blaze of lights. Carriages
line the streets in front, and from gate to doorway is spread a velvet carpet, on which the delicate feet of the guests
may tread. The occasion is the entr�e into society of one of the fairest buds in the City of the Violet Crown."
-O. Henry, October 27, 1894

Started in October of 2004, I introduced my sound The Violet Crown Sessions. In an effort to diversify the
culture of Electronic Dance Music I strive to bring together masterfully produced tracks from today�s great
and upcoming artists as well as many of today�s existing. These sessions combine ambient, progressive
breaks, and progressive house; as well as other forms of Intelligent Dance Music . Each session is roughly
60 minutes of carefully selected tracks determined to show audiences abroad that dance music isn�t just
the music played on the radio, but it�s still very much underground and very much appreciated by many. So
allow me to open your mind to the grand soundscapes of The Violet Crown Sessions�

This kid's stuff is awesome! I had downloaded some of it when he promoted it in the DJ thing. I highly recommend downloading it. The mixes are nothing short of outstanding. I normally don't rave on so much about something, but this guy has skills.
Keep putting out the mixes! |
