Indeed! It's a great remix this one, nice and dark and twisted with an electro tech styling. I was definately caffinated and high so I think considering it is a good mix, enjoy, let me know what you think.

i got halfway though it, so far so good. I'm really bad with listening to mixes when i'm at home on the computer. very atmospheric sounding breaks, i liiike. that smack my enya track seems tough to work with. the mash up itself sounds like a key clashing mix, you can really notice when it ends tho. i'll finish up and give you more thoughts when i have had a good listen.

Freaky; Yeah, the Enya/Prodigy track is a strange piece of work, good but really wierd sounding and I too I noticed that key clash within the song of course, however I think I made it a tad worse by putting a progressive house record after it instead of another breaks one.

A few of the transitions in this mix leave something to be desired for sure, not nearly as clean as any of my other sets, I was really pushing the genre envelope with it and it is noticeable, breaks to progressive house to funky house to electro/tech house and back to breaks, it was an excersise for my mind thats for sure, seeing as I had only played some of these records together once, not that I'm making that my excuse ;)

I beleive it was still worth sharing though, and don't worrry its building to something I swear, once you get past the progressive house I think you'll really enjoy it.

And thanks for the constructive feedback cos how I can learn from it other wise right, and please do let me know what you think of the rest when you have the time and patients to give it a listen.:D

finally listened to the rest.

that hoxton whores remix is odd. reminds me of old fuel breakbeats. i think its fuel anyway.

good stuff!!

I quite enjoyed this mix berbs.... very chilled. almost sounds a little distorted in a few of the tracks, like the lines were too hot.

Thanks for listening f/64, mucho appreciated:)

Hmm didn't notice that distortion, there are some strange effects in a couple tracks, like a part of the music, the levels were all good from what I could tell I didn't go over, what do you mean by the lines being too hot, how does that happen cos if thats happeing I'd love to prevent it??

It could be static too though, been having issues with that lately, I need different slipmats as the air in our appartment has gotten dryer, I need ones that are not felt, as of yet though been unable to find any decent ones, any suggestions would be cool.
