I love this track so much. Gives me chills every time. That's the kind of sensation I want dance music to be all about.
Will download these mixes for sure. I've heard most of the tracks, but it will be nice to hear how they sound all together. |

| 3rd Set is absolute bliss. No better intro than that track, it still gives me the tingles to this day. My only criticism if it is one is i'd have probably played Origin a bit later but that is just preference I guess. Great work mate, brought back some amazing memories of my distant youth. |

Think I was trying to be too creative when it may have been better to let the track flow. Don't think it damages the mix though which took me ages to plan. |
It doesn't really damage it, because it's one slightly duff moment in 80 minutes of excellence. I really like how you structured this mix- there are parts where you go through two or three tracks very quickly, and others when you give a track almost all of its running time. It really gives a nice variety to the way the set unfolds. |

Thanks mate, good to hear comments like that, makes the time gone into it all the more worthwhile. I figured I'm not likely to have a go at a classics mix again for a long time so may as well do it properly. I just wanted to get the best elements out of the tracks, with some tunes it works to take just parts from it and others it doesn't like Xpander and Perception. I think I got the balance right, and it's more fun that way! |

Just listened to it and it was even better than I thought. Some lovely transitions and it flowed excellently. Only two things disappointed me:
1. You didn't let I'm Free play for nearly long enough. Given that Raincry only makes a cameo anyway I'd preferred it if you just played I'm Free for the whole time. It's a great intro piece all on its own.
2. That IIO excerpt in the middle of Greece 2000 sounded really out of place. I don't know if it was a harmonic problem or something, but it didn't work for me.
Other than that, pretty stunning. It's easy to get lazy when you're playing classics but you really brought out the best in these tracks. |
I got rid of the Rapture excerpt! |
