This was the final entry in the mfe series and I wanted to go out with a bang. It is pitched somewhere between the a-to-b journey of #7 and the layered edits approach of #8. This is a mix that pushed all my technical arrangement skills to the maximum. Just to note, technical skills don't necessarily trump plain good selection, but it was the artistic focus of this mix.
It is worth noting that this mix features my one and only track that I have actually issued into the real world. Writing and DJing are my poisons, production is on the learn list as I start to amass a home hardware studio. This is possibly one of the most diverse sessions I have created, starting at ambient drone, powering up to full blooded techno and electro, before dipping into the weird side of dub and breaks, finishing on a personal favourite in the form of Ocarina Of Time's Forest Temple music.
In able to assist and appreciate what is going on and where, I've bracketed sections together where there is a lot of textural layering happening. Hopefully this illustrates that this isn't just some dude playing down tracks end to end in a computer for once.
