Ziptnf - Journey Through the Mind [harder prog trance -> melodic full on]
View this Thread in Original format
ziptnf


Hello there! My mix for February is out, Journey Through the Mind. I figured I would spin some trancier stuff this month. The first half of the set is some tasty progressive trance, which leads into some tighter, more minimalistic full on, which eventually progresses into some melodic full on trance.

Tracklist:
Morgan Freeman - Shawshank Redemption Ending
Zen Mechanics - Vurt (Sinewave Rmx)
Ace Ventura - Sao Paulo
Talamasca vs Space Cat - On purpose
Black and White vs Chakra - Created for Control
00.db - Twister (Original Mix)
Ultravoice - Darkside
Astrix - Underbeat
Ion ft. Descarto - Invisible Point
Zybex - Sensitive Strings
Senso Sento - Key to the Universe
Ziki vs Ananda Shake - High Damage
Prosper - On The Run
Electro Sun & Visual Contact - Secret Sequence

Please enjoy, and as always, let me know your thoughts if you listened!

Thanks guys! Let me know what you think!

Personally, I thought my mixing was okay. Maybe I had a little bit of distortion muddled with my frequencies being too boosted (in the Ace Ventura transition). That last track wasn't even supposed to be on there, until the very end when I decided I needed one more track. The transition to that last track may seem a little overpowering, but looking back it actually kinda worked.

I gave this a listen last night, and personally, some of the tracks are a bit too "light" for my taste in psy, but still decent track selection. I found that there was a lot of clipping (more than just the Ace ventura transition) during transitions, maybe try spinning with the gains slightly lower in the future, because it got annoying near the end of the mix.

Overall, it was a decent set. :)

I think more of it was my low frequencies, sometimes they were boosted way too high. I will keep that in mind in future mixes. Thanks for the listen!

Yeah, I was getting a lot of distortion on almost every transition I'm afraid.

I really liked a bunch of the tracks, and the progression was good, but some of the mixes seemed very rushed, and coupled with the distortion issues messed up the overall flow of the mix.

That said, I was on very bad form last night, 2 hours and 20 minutes into a new mix, and I just gave up, was seriously not happy with it and chucked it to the wayside, lol.

Yeah, I mean, I like the tracks in this but I give my mixing a C-.

I suppose I could try again, but really, what would the point be.

Thanks for the listen anyway, hope you at least enjoyed the tracks.

EDIT: Interestingly enough, I would like to point out that I didn't notice any distortion while I was spinning, I only noticed it after the mp3 had been created.

bump! :)

Ok, here is my opinion, which is meant to be constructive. :)
You did a good work on the track selection, I liked the way your set develops from beginning to end.
However, the mixing is not so good and that ruins the overall quality of the mix. Some transitions went too fast, just a few seconds, some had minor beatmatch flaws and the clipping on some transitions is obvious, it's just too noisy.

Thank you very much. I completely agree. Thanks for your constructive criticism!

Look for a ass kicking full on set coming from me soon! I won't release it until it's perfect! Thanks guys!
