Yeah those are among the ones I'm going to try and find.

Not really into Klock (and Dettmann) though, I always see people go mad when they play somewhere, but it's not quite my taste normally.

I actually always appreciated them more for their less dancefloor-oriented productions. Intensify was a great album.

Also, UB-Devoid -> Mindcircus. For those who know.

I still prefer their first. Was basically when i stopped with the Trance.

Sorted out my digital collection to try and find my fav 2012 tracks.
First thing that stood out was the fact that I have bought a lot less stuff than in previous years.

Anyway:

Technasia - Heart of Flesh

Tomas More - The Invisible Thread (Chloé Straight Mix)

Intruder feat. Jei - Amame (Dyed Soundorum Downtown Remix)

Manuel Mazza - Shift (Alex Celler Remix)

Pherox - Gabrielle (Rhadoo Remix)

Hooved feat. Mirco Violi - Disturbed

Idiotproof & Eats Everything - Zulu

Ofcourse these are only favs from tracks I actually bought, bet there's some unknown IDs out there as well.

Out of those I only really heard the Smallpeople's LWE podcast (deep house) and Nico Jaar's EM. I will have to check out the Rustie EM, never heard of the guy and I'm not big into trap but he's wearing a triforce shirt in the picture (also looks 12 years old) so that's cool I guess :p

Rustie isn't really trap. Just this weird videogamey but not sounding edm that you can barely dance to. His album had like one trap song though.

After Light
All Nite
Ultra Thizz

Great album last year.

Really digging this new track by Cazzette that was released on Eject pt. II yesterday:

Cazzette - Endorphine

Also if you haven't checked it out yet, I really liked their video for Beam Me Up. It has a very District 9 feel to it (except for the fact that it's extremely uplifting and not at all depressing lol). Makes me yearn for festival season again.

So bummed I'm going to miss him this Saturday at 12-Turn-13 :( It's my boyfriend's birthday, so can't make it.

That Cajmere mix is the bee's knees. So solid. Of those official comps, I liked: Nugroove, Cajmere, Shangaan Shake (definitely not for everyone, took me a few listens to get into it), American Noise, Minutes In Ice. Need to listen to that New Jack Techno one, and never heard of that Post-punk thing. Drexciya is Drexciya, what else is there to say? The rest of that list is a little scatterbrained, in my opinion. A lot of hype and not a lot of substance.

Yeah, sorry, fell behind due to me being sick. Depends on how y'all want to move forward. There's just a small handful of us now, so we can still do the physical mystery swap or we can just upload them. Let me create an email chain right now, that way we can all hash it out.

Ohhhh man, loves me a good DFP mix. If that's downloadable at all (I think he's usually pretty open with allowing that) can someone re-upload to Mediafire so I can download it at work?

Seriously, DFP. Love him.

Also, it's looking increasingly likely I'll be doing my own thing for NYD this year. I've sort of cooled a little on that Let Them Eat Cake gig (the one with Tiger & Woods, Flying Lotus etc.) but I'm seriously thinking about this:

The rest of the lineup really ain't so much (though I'm keen to see Ivan Gough play on his own) but man... M@W. Fuck. Any first-hand impressions?

You know Simon Digby? I thought he was mostly known in Australia and never really made it O/S.

Unless you're Australian, then it would make perfect sense :)

Yeah, I'm having a bit of fun with it.

Although it's possible that's just because I'm at work and any distraction's a good distraction.

Just got home from a 3 hour set by Kevin Saunderson @ a small club in Raleigh. Probly 60-80ish people there, very intimate, everyone was wiggin out. omg I havent had a night like that in years. Saunderson was amazing. He played a perfect blend of house and techno. I never in a million years thought I'd be dancing to Jeff Mills & DJ Hyperactive & Plastikman records @ 2am in Raleigh. So happy right now, even though im partly deaf and can barely walk. I even got my picture taken with him after all was said and done.

You weren't in that DJ playlist website thingy earlier today. We played stacks of stuff that wasn't house. In fact, I don't think I played a single house track!

Certainly didn't play anything that resembled my 4-year-old nephew getting his hands on a sequencer and some VSTs ;)
