ZeJayMan, thanks for listening to it. Sorry the bulk of it wasn't for you, but I'm glad you enjoyed the end at least.
Nick and netroM, thanks for the feedback! The track actually has the Donnie Darko sample in it, though the artists pitched it down, and then I pitched the track down a ton myself. Glad to hear you guys enjoyed it and thought, for some reason, that my mixing was decent :p
Hope the rest of you enjoy it as well. Thanks for downloading it! |

| You will be my only guiding light into techno and house for the past four or five months. The pressure is mounting. Me. |

| That last song is absolutely addictive. The vocals are fantastic. Please be sure to let me know when you post a tracklist. |

| Really didn't feel the first few tracks, just didn't grab me straight up. But the mix built into some nice melodies and progressed nicely later on in the mix. I think maybe a nice melodic track at the beginning that really grabs you, then going into the deeper tech stuff would have worked quite well. But technically this is really well mixed and also really liked the tunes later on in the set. |

Decent mix. I enjoyed the opening half an hour a lot, and then we got into that Clovis remix which signalled the start of some very clichéd deep-tech house - canned spoken samples and vaguely jazzy instruments ahoy. It got interesting again when you started picking up the pace and going a bit proggy. Really enjoyed those tracks, would like to see the tracklist. Then you lost it a bit at the end. I can sort of see how that 16 Bit Lolitas remix is supposed to be the peak moment, followed by a more laid-back track to lead out, but I think you lost the flow.
Mixing was good, occasionally you could hear the beats getting thicker during a transition but you kept everything under control. I also know that last track but can't quite remember where I've heard it. I have the feeling it's quite a big track. |

The hardest parts of this mix, for me, were the very start and the peak moment. Basically I have a big playlist which is all the music I've been hearing and playing lately that I enjoy a lot and I tried to take some of my favorite songs from there and form it into a cohesive set. I would definitely agree that near the end I had some issues with the flow.
Glad to hear that you enjoyed both the beginning and the end. Also glad that you didn't think it was terrible :p I was pretty happy to find some proggy tracks from 2010 that I enjoyed. I'll be posting the tracklist tomorrow. Thanks for giving it a listen and letting me know what you thought :)
Grant, thanks for giving it a listen. Sorry the beginning wasn't to your tastes, but glad you enjoyed the rest at least!
Game + Watch, definitely let me know what you think when you're done with it :) |

Nice mix Joe. I really enjoyed the first half or so. The Justin Steele remix is ing amazing. I think I'm gonna buy it myself. Recognized a lot of tracks in there otherwise, and while I didn't know for a fact what the first track was, I had a feeling it was by Minilogue since it sounded a lot like them. Obviously you know I have Cosmogany and personally I've always had trouble mixing it and I can tell you had some trouble too since that transition wasn't so smooth. I didn't think it was the right time to use the Nikola Gala track as well, just didn't feel right coming in. I enjoyed the rest of it though, especially one of that progressive house track that sounded very euphoric towards the end.
I'm not one to personally traverse so many BPM in such a short mix but I had a good time listening to your mix:) |

Thanks for the feedback Adam. I've been really loving that Steele remix since I found it on Beatport, was very happy to be able to use it in a set. And yeah, about a third of those tracks were things I IDed from you, so no surprise on you recognizing them :p Glad to hear you enjoyed it, for the most part.
Woscar, hope you like it! Definitely looking forward to your feedback :) |
