I've been playing with the idea to do a downtempo mix for quite a while now, and last week I finally got around making one. Basically it's just a collection of a few of my favourite downtempo and breakbeat tracks, some recent and others not so recent, all thrown together in what I hope is a somewhat coherent mix. It was the first time I ever tackled this style of mixing, so don't shoot me if there are some dodgy transitions. This is just one of those sets where the music matters much much more than the mixing.
Vega - Slowing down the pace
01. The Last Atlant - Yeah really
02. Lost Orchestra - Children
03. The Last Atlant - Randomly yours
04. Yunus Güvenen - Indigo
05. M.I.K.E. - Evolving depths
06. Motorcitysoul - Solar
07. Ian Pooley - Cloud patterns
08. Icehouse - Don't believe anymore (Ivan Gough & Colin Snape cafe latte mix)
09. Petter vs UNKLE - What you are to me these days (Sasha's Involver mashup)
10. Underworld - Beautiful burnout
11. Motorcitysoul - XYZ
12. Sasha - Mr Tiddles
13. Sasha - Magnetic north
14. Momu - The dive
15. Nikos Diamantopoulos - Be yours
16. Lost Orchestra - Fading lights
17. BT - Good morning Kaia
18. Raz Ohara & The Odd Orchestra - Where he at (Apparat remix)
19. Ullrich Schnauss - Nobody's home
20. Dousk - As if
21. Pole Folder - 8
22. Trafik - Your light (Luke Chable's vocal mix)
23. Chable & The Dirty Fours - Tokyo (Nubreed remix)
24. Jade - A day in the life of an eastern assassin (Derek Howell remix)
25. Eelke Kleijn - Knowledge breaks

27. Digital Witchcraft - Fingerpaint (Jakhira's hazed edit 4 Vega)

Awesome set dude, definitely not what I usually listen to but very enjoyable. I've been putting this one on before going to bed for the past 2 days. Pure bliss
