There are some tracks that just feel really good to me: the tracks that cause those tingle-type sensations that go up the back of my spine up through the top of the head...Cosmic Quivers, if you will.
In this mix, the single unifying theme I went for is tracks that make me feel good. A few of the selections have been known to cause Cosmic Quivers from time to time such as the super synthy Random Factor - Second Principles (10:20) and the techy yet surprisingly beautiful Hoito - Modern Kush (36:40) [thanks Slee]. Both of these are amazing pieces of cosmic work...I've been sitting on the Random Factor track for over a year waiting for the right mix to use it in....
After completing this mix, I noticed this mix has a fair amount of soul and vocal-influenced feelgood tunes as well, notably the Temptations vocals sample in Robert Poretti - A Girl Like You (24:44), Danny Daze+Matches - If This (27:00), Mike Shannon - Under the Radar (Rozzo Mix) (31:47), the scat singing in Daso, Jin Choi - Teer (Rodriguez Jr Mix) (43:47), and Miguel Migs closer....I suppose there's something about a vocal hook that makes it easier for me to connect with...
All in all, a lot of tunes here that make me feel good...hopefully they'll have the same effect on you.
