shen Posted 19 September 2008 Share Posted 19 September 2008 This mix has been a long time coming. Basically I've been thinking about which songs to put together since back in April or something when I started reviewing the other mixes. I opted for a mix that's (to me anyway) cohesive instead of mixing many different genres together. I tried the latter, but it just didn't sound good at all. It was a really hard selection process and I've had to compromise a lot! Basically I've left out a lot of 'unfriendly' music in order not to offend too much, so quite a few of my first or second choices of various artists are not in there. And on top of that, I also had to cut out quite a few songs in order to keep the mix at a reasonable size, and there were a lot of hard choices to make! Still, I'm satisfied with my first attempt at making a somewhat coherent mix, and for those bothered to have a listen, I hope some of it will be new to their ears. Enjoy... ps. I will take up reviewing again very soon Shen's mix Tracklist: 1. Soul Coughing - Bus To Beelzebub 2. Living Things – End Gospel 3. Priestess – Lay Down 4. Amplifier – Neon 5. Oceansize - Catalyst 6.

I deliberately omitted a lot of the more "proggy" songs I had in mind, in an attempt to make the mix more accessible, but I hope you'll find a few of the songs interesting if you're that way inclined Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
