WINDMILL SESSIONS 01
Hey, this is the 1st mix I've posted on here. It reflects the kind of music that I'm in to currently, namely deep, flowing tunes with a tangiable sense of melancholy.
The mix was designed to flow together well, with mini peaks and troughs. Hope you like it and let us know what you thought!
cheers
I like it when other people talk about the tracks in their mix, so I thought I should...
01. Room 101-New Speak
A perfect intro, an ambient start which kicks into a beat, to the backgroundof beautiful synth work.
02. Matthew Adams- Gold Leaf
Fast becoming one of my fave producers, his productions increase in quality with each release. This is from his Toes in the Sand EP and is such a sparkly tune with real depth of sound.
03. Kaito-The Universe
Another fave producer of mine, his productions are all of a similar ilk but are so beautifully deep and chilled out.
04. Chris Girard- Rideau Street (storyteller remix)
I love this track! This is my definition of the perfect "filler" track, so smooth and full of melody.
05.4Mal- Layered Feelings
4Mal can do no wrong, this track takes the mix up a gear with a faster bassline and drops but stillremains blissfully calm. The whispered vocals do it for me.
06.Daniel Gregory-Paradise
Keeping the pace up this track delivers a deep melodic build before dropping into a feet moving funk-tinged melody. Great stuff.
07.Kaito- Nobody Could Be Alone
The mix then drops down a gear into real "journey" terriotory. This is one of my fave tracks by Kaito and a spine-tingler guaranteed!
08.Pablo Roma-Sad Flowers
Back into a melodic builder. This track is subtle, but undeniably beautiful and sets the scene well for the next track.
09.Narek and Danny Bullo- I Need Somebody
The pace returns with this exquisite track. Trancey bassline, shimmering melodies and haunting vocals-stunning stuff.
10.Pole Folder-Morning Crow
A real change of direction, Pole Folder's album was a very successful electronic album and this track builds up for the crescendo of the mix.
11.Benz and MD-Turning the Curve
This is a huge track. Big room melodies, builds and drops all with top-notch production values. You have to hear this played live!
12.Breakfast-Drunk in the Grass at Sunset
A real gem of a track. A beautiful techy piece of work that always makes me smile, if only for the beauty of it. The beats are getting harder by this point...
13.Espen and Elusive-Internet Hugs
The climax of the mix is actually quite chilled but incredibly stirring. This is my favourite song of 2006 so I won't be able to describe what feelings it evokes to me. Suffice to say its a fitting final track.

This is a quality mix.
A great selection of subtle, building melodic tracks devoid of anything remotely cheese, they are intelligently produced which is sadly lacking in trance these days.
This reminds me of why I got into electronic music in the first place, well done mate! |
