22. Coyu - The Nu-Nu Sound (Santos Remix) - Suara
23. Charles Ramirez & Stan Garac - El Pianista - Hall of Fame
24. Yousef - My Explanation - Saved
25. Grand Corporation - Wonder & Amazement (Deetron remix) - Classic
Being a bit old, I recognised all the classic samples/edits etc he put in there and I liked them mostly.
I thought he was building a bit of moment up towards the middle, then he lost it a bit and it went a bit south and then bouncey before recovering well at the end with a much better flow.
It seemed to go from early night style to 'just past the peak time when everybody is trollyed' mode quite quickly - with no in the 'middle'. Maybe that's just me though.
It had a real UK house club feel to it, which isn't surprising as he was effectively promoting 10 years of his north-west night/club Circus. Plus it was stated at the start that he did it in one 'live' take, using only CDJ's and a mixer with no computer software.
I kinda liked these tracks the most: -
Paperclip People - Throw (Slam's RTM Remix) - Planet E
Coyu - The Nu-Nu Sound (Santos Remix) - Suara
Tom Flynn - Do You Like Bass - Leena
Charles Ramirez & Stan Garac - El Pianista - Hall of Fame
Yousef - My Explanation - Saved
Overall, he could have gone for a bit more energy in the middle and then it would have felt a bit like a 3/4 hour club set, just compressed into 2 hours which would have been cool as hell.
Not my favourite genres or sub-genres of house in the main part, but I liked this mix overall and give it 6.5/10.
