Electro, house, techno; relatively warm music this week. 120 rising a bit to 125. Mostly old tunes, though there's a new-ish short piece in here by dbacon (Dave Paton) and a new-ish nice ambient track by Neotex (Neocortex?) on Trnch Music.
This mix is no longer available for download from this website. It is however available at mixcloud.

The two new (2020 and later) tracks in this hour are #1 Static Animation by Neotex (Neocortex?) from the Landown Vol. 1 comp on Trnch Music and #2 Chordex2 by dbacon from Half-arsed Cupboard Jams 2. Warm ambient and chunky beats, respectively. I had thought that Mat Carter's Emotive Motion was new as well (and said as much in my intro) but I was mistaken, that's a piece from 2002. It was however remastered and reissued in 2019 along with the rest of the Zark Time EP.
Track #11 Heliopause by Herr Wächer (AKA The Sentinel) really stood out to me while mixing. It reminds me of the space-y techno Jeff Mills makes, or maybe Model 500's album Deep Space; lush and beautiful. I cut Heliopause short to work in the next track, so I say you should give the original unmixed track and the whole Heliopause EP a listen.
Mixing Underworld's Rez in after Stream Of Consciousness was kind of a stretch but I think it works OK. Pulled it (Rez) off the shelf because I hadn't heard it in ages. The copy played here is the US release, TVT 8718, though it's a later repress I believe, one of the ones in a blue-metallic colored sleeve.
And that's it. This is a pretty disjointed selection; I may have been waking up while recording. I'll be back next week Thursday evening with another end-of-the-month slow mix. Thanks for listening, and be sure to check out the artists and releases linked above.
