This mix CD's a couple of months old now, with a few older tracks included, but it's very good and worth a listen.

Here's a portion of the review from Resident Advisor...

‘Play! 01’ was recorded live at D-Edge, Sao Paulo towards the end of September 2006. D-Edge is apparently Sao Paolo’s most renowned venue for premier electronic music, and ‘Play! 01’ catches a hint of what the club might be like. For his mix, Huntemann makes a well-chosen selection of stripped-down tracks that range in style from minimal to electro-disco, yet balanced throughout are build-ups and pace to give the crowd breathing time when needed. In other words, it is an intelligent set, and one begins to envision the D-Edge crowd as music-savvy. There is crowd noise interspersed throughout the mix (don’t worry, not in that annoying way) and Huntemann throws in some flangers and live effects once things turn more electro-y in the second half of the set. The subtext reads of enthusiasm and hedonism, and when Huntemann says of D-Edge that “its Brazilian spirit is incomparably euphoric,” it becomes believable as you listen.

I didn't like the concept much and that bunch of overplayed 2006 hits didn't save it at all.
