In contrast to the approach I took with my last studio mix, "Intuition (#055)," I decided to take this on from a calculated approach relying on reason rather than feeling. The mixes I respect and enjoy listening to the most are stylistically varied, so for this mix (not unlike most of my mixes) I aimed for an output that achieves the same, balancing lush vs stripped, angry vs delicate, synthesized vs organic, serious vs quirky.
The fun challenge of assembling a mix in this fashion is finding a way to weave through those various sounds without sounding jarring or schizophrenic. I believe if that's achieved, then the end result is an hour of music that can be listened to over and over again, staying fresh, and in rare cases, approaches timelessness.
I've been on tour these last few weeks spending quite a bit of time in planes, trains, and automobiles with lots of time to listen to this mix over and over. Obviously I'm heavily biased since I'm choosing only music that I love, but I'm just now getting sick of it after roughly my 20th listen. I hope you'll find this mix worth at least one.
