Re: Best Mixed Cd Ever

A lot of multi-disc sets have bifurcated themes on each disc. Like Day / Night or Club / Afterhours kind of thing. It makes sense to think of those as separate works. In other circumstances, I would agree with you. Depends on intent.

Ive never understood this whole disc 1 disc 2 thing. When ever i play a CD, live set, essential mix, mixtape or anything else, I always start at the beginning and play it till the end. But i always think of it a One hole mix.

When disc 1 finishes i put disc 2 on, when disc 2 finishes on to CD 3 and so on. To me when one disc finishes its on to the next part. The same as turning a mix tape over.

Maybe its an age thing is i used to buy albums on vinyl years ago and you had side 1 and side 2 you'd get about 6 tracks then you would have to flip it over. To me it is 1 album not 2

I always liked Dave Seaman's Awakenings CD and Tenaglia's GU London for the way they've added the effects or samples at the end of disc 1 that continue into the beginning of disc 2 to make it seem more like one mix.

S&D - NE I
JVM - Balance
Sasha - GU13

And I still can't get enough of Digweed's Transitions...only the test of time will tell...

I was playing that Transitions CD just 4-hours ago. It gets better with each listen.
