Yeah, I listened to the whole thing....pretty flawless if you ask me....as far as a name, I would go with "Up and Down" b/c the set really took me up and down, as far as emotionally....you have really strong tracks in the beginning, and then the energy is decreased, but not yet lost ;), as the set reaches the end. Just a suggestion, but i think it fits perfectly

nice tracklisting

what exactly do you mean by releasing.. are you planning to sell it?

as for doing something with the last couple seconds of the last track, use soundforge and play around with some time modulation effects like put a massive reverb on the closing seconds for a mad finish ;)

Maaaaaaaaaaaannnnnn!!!!

I didn't listen the mixing but but but...
You have a GREAT really really great track list...I love it...

I think the name should be:

Reaching The Emotion

Im guessing you like paul van dyk. I downloaded the cd. It has a good sequencing of tracks.
The only thing that did not fit in in my opinion was from signum to the following track. the sequencing from signum from to the nex track seems a bit incompatible.... or more the less, it stuck out.
I judged it based on browsing it.. I did not listen to every second and minute, so that is what my opinion is based on.
Overall, I believe you are in the right track.

Best thing to do, if you are making a cd, is to not listen to it for a couple of days. Then come back and listen to it, then you may find out what may be missing,,, thats always worked for me. Sometimes listening to the same material over and over again numbs my senses and leaves me blind.

Below is my truthful opinion. Take it with a grain of salt because I'm not a professional DJ or recording artist. I do DJ part time.

This may just be a style issue but it seems to me you're mixing tracks too slow. I would definitely cut some intro and outro out of tracks with mixes. You could lose your audience if you can't maintain that energy you're trying to build in the middle and end tracks of your set. To me, it seems like you have no control over your tracks, more like the tracks are controlling you.

I also feel your mix is missing a creative spark. Seems like you were focusing too much on getting everything beatmatched. I would have liked to hear some tricks as well. (EQ, pans, dynamics changing). Honestly, I wouldn't spend money on releasing a CD until you feel you have done the absolute best you can do.
