New Year chill-out mixes

By UncategorizedNo Comments

Berlin going 2013.

Happy New Year!

During the past weeks, there’s been several great downtempo/chill-out mixes from excellent DJs which have included our music, too. Here’s a short list. Happy listening!

Just before Xmas, Jaytech published a wonderful Winter Ambient mix which includes “The Night After”.

DJ Orkidea’s Christmas Piano mix is a great journey to some classic chill-out piano tracks and includes our “Sun” remix, too.

Another amazing mix from Jaytech with “White Birds” as the closing track.

Brilliant Spacemusic Podcast included “Architect’s Dream” on their Xmas episode.

And finally, Glass Coffee included “One Sunday” on his latest mix.

Best of 2008 mixes

By Uncategorized2 Comments

Lately I’ve been listening a lot of “Best of 2008” mixes. What’s been a very positive surprise, is that they contain many many tracks of which I haven’t heard anything during 2008.

If several DJs rate dozens of unknown tracks (unknown to me, at least) as their Best of 2008, what does it tell?

Rather than getting depressed of not listening enough music or finding those tracks in time, I’m feeling excited. Today it’s easier than ever to play your unique sound, find tracks of which nobody has ever heard and play them the whole year and still they are unique tracks for someone.

It also tells that there’s just SO much music to crawl into. Why would anyone still stick to tracks released only during the past two weeks or browse through Beatport’s TOP 10 sales charts? It just feels more meaningless than ever.

Is this how Long Tail affects DJing?
