"I know a bloke, who knows a bloke...."
MAN I've had that voice in my head on loop all day!!! As always, you've got some good ideas and your sets are always really fun to listen to. Loving the stephano signore track, marco g, and kobbe vs balthazzar yummmmmm!!!!!!!

Hated the KlF riff in that other track though , all out of key and just a big jumbled mess. |
Did you mean the killer's sample (comes in around 39.33)? If so, I know what you mean and I heard it too. The killers is in D and spiritual enlightenment is in Fm so I think that's where the clash came from. |

Write/say whatever you like - it's all good feedback! Scores in particular I quite like myself as it's a very accurate way of seeing how much someone liked/disliked the mix so please go ahead!
Est - yeah I know they don't fit perfectly together, I tend to neglect harmonic mixing when I'm playing techno as it can all be a bit too involved, particularly seeing that half of the tracks are pretty atonal anyway lol, but I agree with certain more melodic parts it could really help. |

Yes the key of the spiritual enlightment track is a little ambiguous. |

Hi Stu
This is a great mix
I'm not really into Techno, but your mixing it always interestign and that made me like the mix, Actually this is the first time that I really enjoyed a Full Techno Set, I really got into it.
The start is great, you said you introduce samples fro other songs, Actually I didn't notice where they were inserted into the mix, only the Killers track, beacuse that's the only track on this mix that I actually know jeje.
I'm nto really in love witht he tracks, what really captures my attention here is your mixing, that's very interesting.
Would like to see you spinnin live =)
Keep mixing |

Glad you like it, it's really nice to know that this mix seems to work on several levels and that someone who's not really into techno can enjoy it!
I'll take it as a compliment that you didn't notice when the extra loops etc were added lol, a lot of them are just extra grooves layered over a track at certain points to give it slightly more to offer, or occasionally a big hook from another track (like the 808 State - Cubik lead at 16:56)
And if I'm ever playing in Panama then I'll let you know, but I don't think it's likely to be particularly soon I'm afraid! |

| I like your tech trance set better, but this mix still takes the cake for the most bangin’ sets I’ve heard in a while on TA. I can’t say much of anything else except that I genuinely enjoyed your set and thanks again for a great share. |
