finally got some time
here we go!
first 5 seconds had me leaning the wrong way then a nice little whoosh and i'm back in it... oooo here it comes again!
good vocal track nice and easy for the beginning, definitely a lounge feel to it
good mix into number 2, basslines mash really well.
great flow so far, track 3 almost fits... a little too down for my tastes... i just don't see it fitting it here - too much like track 1... and she's just talking, she's not even singing.
excited about this next one, a little drum pattern is always good.
good mix, glad to get out of the last song, and it's a bit more funky now - good progress.
mix came about quick, but the drum pattern matched up nice tho - and another good step up from the previous track, getting my energy flowing more now!
ok i see where this is heading, a bit of a tribal feel still with the drum patterns - i really like the flow from earlier lounge-house to now a funky drum pattern/progressive house. and it's really doing a number on my energy rising - great stuff.
ohh my god the bassline on this tune is sick - The Beginning - i think.
great mix, and a good choice - an increase in high-hats.
now it's staight up progressive trance, i see you guys followed the myra route and used a bit more vocal tracks in this set. good increase in bass and i'm definitely ready to dance by now - LOL!
huge build-up through the rest of the set.
Overall solid solid SOLID mixing, great track selection and progression - except for track 3 really didn't seem to fit for me.
Really nice thing for me was the build up of energy throughout the set really was setting me up for dancing and I think in a 2 hour plus environment you guys would perform really well - as I'm sure you have before I just have yet to experience it.

thanks for a really detailed review dennis, glad you liked it. we were definitely aiming for a more tribal sound with this one so i'm glad that carried through in our set. like i said, we think this is our best work so far by a good stride - so we're glad that it's getting such positive feedback all around. makes the effort a lot more satisfying.
edit: in regards to the trance aspect - a much more melodic sound is something that we have been swinging back to for a bit of time now - maybe a month or two. it probably seeped into the set on a subconscious level. i suppose thats why lately i've been downloading trance sets and having a good time listening to this as opposed to house sets of which i was getting a little bit weary. |

Thanks so much for the review Denys and everyone else who posted in the earlier thread (sorry I ruined it with my insanity (and if you think that post was bad, that was the high point of my double fisting misadventure, which I'll buy anyone a shot tomorrow who promises to forget that whole episode)). Great to get some feedback and hear a little of what people like & don't like so much.
The mix into "Easy" was a bit of an experiment on my part to try to change it up a bit and it was mixed in well but had to drop out the Lara track when the snare part was going to kick in and it made it seem a little out of left field, but I still love that track on its own ever since first hearing Seneca drop it @ Vision. Very happy to hear that some of the melodic stuff is going over, as I get so enTRANCED in that kind of sound I usually forget to bring up the pace later on until Yuris begins yelling that he needs to get set up for some nonstop uplifting unicorn 140 BPM mixing-on-the-edge specials ;)
Hopefully some nice looking copies will be available of this @ Narcisse on July 1st. Thanks again everyone and all you other MWTA DJs keep your fantastic mixes coming!
P.S. I love you all & EDM! |
