My fist-ever mix. I've been meaning to do this for years, literally. Thanks to my colleague Sebastian this mix has come into existence just yesterday. Me being a musical n00b, he showed me a few basic technical tricks; plus, with his musical enthusiasm, he encouraged me to heave my ass up - or, rather, down and seated for days in front of the 'puter - in order to finally get this thing done.

Actually, it's more a 'collection of music I like' than a mix. As you can see from the tracklist, it's going all over the map. If I had to put a label on it, it would probably read as 'sped-up downbeat minimal and some other silly techno sub-genre descriptors'.

I'm afraid there are a few bumpy transitions since I've just started developing teknikal skillz.

Therefore, any and all criticism and advice at improvements are most welcome.

Tracklist:
01 Floyd - Es müßte immer Musik da sein (Absolute Giganten Soundtrack)
02 Glitterbug - We Will All Go
03 Glitterbug - Oh My Hick!
04 Kante - Best of Both Worlds
05 Kaito - Air Rider
06 Das Glow - Cathédrale
07 Kante - Best of Both Worlds
08 Tocotronic - Jackpot (Thomas & Dettinger K.O. Kompakt Mix)
09 Wighnomy Brothers - Somewhere Over the Slippybergün
10 Sleeparchive - Transposition Reverse
11 Modeselektor feat. TTC - Dancing Box (Sleeparchive Remix)
12 Monolake - North
13 LCD Soundsystem - Track 3 from 45:33
14 Underworld - Vanilla Monkey (Buick Project Remix)
15 Underworld - Play Pig (Underworld Riverrun Version)
16 Underworld - Play Pig (Pig & Dan Mix 2)
17 Frank Martiniq - Adriano (Michael Mayer Remix)
18 Kelley Polar - Chrysanthemum
Bonus:
19 Imogen Heap - Just for Now (Live at Studio 11, 103.1 FM)
+ the odd tidbit in between.

Total time: 71:10.

Ah well, I guess not...

I cannot quite feel why the picture makes you sad but I'm comfortable with you drawing any emotion from it at all. :)

I have recently done some mixes but how do i upload them from a site to share with people?You mean, upload TO a site? Well, there's tons of pages that offer you free webspace, either with our without registering first. I've had positve experience with www.megaupload.com (http://www.megaupload.com), www.filefront.com (http://www.filefront.com), www.sendspace.com (http://www.sendspace.com). The most important U"S"Ps are uploadable file size, download speed and how long a potential downloader has to wait before the download starts.
