The reason I didn't use Domination is because I've already played it, way back on Spirit Of '95. I never use the same track twice, although I sometimes use different versions. There would have been more epic house on this mix if I hadn't used a lot of it before.
I tried my best with Ajare - I actually start mixing in Templedrum during the last break - but there is just no way to avoid that sudden ending.
Thanks for listening anyway, and I'm glad the second half is getting some love. |

I listened. I enjoyed.
Going to whack on my mp3 player so I can listen on the commute. |

| Now I see why you liked the Sasha inspired Cream Classics mix I did! This looks epic will have a listen later. |

| Yeah, there are a lot of tracks here that Sasha played, and when I'd put it together I realised there was a lot of parallels to Northern Exposure in particular. That said, I was listening to The FSOL, William Orbit, Banco De Gaia, Leftfield and BT years before I got into Sasha. |

Jack this mix is utterly immense! Yesterday and today I finally managed to get through the whole thing and wow! It's really good! Fantastic selection of tracks and great mixing and flow to boot. I'm definitely going to take the time to study up on the track list in order to become familiar with who made those tracks and where they came from (with the exception of a few, which I know/own). But yea, not much more that needs to be said\. It was a really enjoyable two hours (even if they needed to be broken into 3 40-minute segments).
edit: I guess the one thing I liked the most about the music itself is how organic, unforced, sort of natural it felt. Like it's not over-produced or over-compressed like a most tracks these days, and there's just a quality to both their construction and overall sound that you don't find today. I guess maybe it's just time to stop trying to find today's equivalent of that kind of music since it just doesn't exist, especially at this tempo.
Also, what other mixes of yours are more like this? |

Oh man, this is totally the wrong time of year to be playing this mix. I'm planning a sequel that's going to continue the summer mood, but in a very different way.
As for other mixes like this... did you check out the epic house mixes? I would have used a lot of those tracks in here if I hadn't already played them. You can also hear how my mixing's come on in the last three years. |

Kind of depends where you live, no? But really those epic house mixes are still my favourite mixes of yours. This mix is also up there but I think I just appreciate the epic house mixes for the fact that you've opened me up to some really special music that I had no previous exposure to and that there isn't really any music being produced in the same fashion. Although that's also a good thing in some respects. |

Do you have links or an archive? |

| The links are down currently. Stu might have uploaded them at some point, but otherwise I'll have to re-up them later. |

I listened to this twice this week. There is something about tracks of this genre from the mid 90's when they are just right that I really enjoy.
As far as sets go, it was good. But it wasn't the next level journey I was hoping for. I think it needed more diversity and a few more energetic tracks. The high point for me was Way Out West - Ajare, which I realized how great a track it is while listening to it in the set. I also enjoyed Sven Vath - L'Esperanza, especially the flute part. The Future Sounds Of London - Papua New Guinea is a classic and one of the first electronic tracks I listened to, though no originality points for that one (no points off either though). Dance 2 Trance - We Came In Peace (1991 Mix), Desert - Moods (Desert Dub) and BT - Poseidon were a couple more that caught my ear.
Overall a good listen. I don't have any complaints about the mixing. I found a few tracks through this set that I liked that I did not know about before. I get the sense you care about the music you play and I look forward to listening to more of your mixes. |

Wow, blast from the past. Thanks for the bump, anyway!
I would do this set quite differently now, I have a lot more tracks that I'd use in the second half. |
