    Smight - Failure is Not an Option

    Does anyone know anything about this mix? It's a mix Smight made several years ago titled Failure is Not an Option. I remember asking about it on here back in the day before the switch to black, and if I recall, the tracklisting was on the DL (down low for us white people) for some reason. Any info would be greatly appreciated. And if anyone wants, I'll stick it up here for your listening pleasure. It's a really good mix of dark, bass-driven progressive with tracks that I've rarely heard on other mixes.

    Haven't come across that name Smight in aaaaaaages. Think he showed up about the same time as Pat Foosheen?

    I got pics and video. But I will upload them in the morning. I need to smoke this nice phat joint and just close my eyes and replay the amazingness in my head.

          I remember your old thread and talking about this before.

          Can you upload that mix man? I'd love to have this set again. Think I must have lost it along the way. I was a big fan of Profluence.

          You also might consider putting Smight in the thread title to draw any attention. ,)

            is Smight still in law enforcement?

              Palmer, I'll get the mix up in the morning. After listening to it again the other day I realized just how badass this mix is. Mods, if you don't mind, add Smight to the thread title.

                I forgot I cut this mix up, I'll upload the tracked version is anyone prefers it. Some of the mixes go on for up to 2-3 mins but I cut it when the previous track leaves completely.

                Track 01 - (deep throbbing bassline with some quirky keys) 10:32
                Track 02 - (starts the madness, tough track good drums) 6:28
                Track 03 - (rocking bassline, female vocal stabs "radiates through your body") 6:37
                Track 04 - (subtle warm melody, wailing synth, bubbling bassline, bit of tribal drums, female
                vocal "trying to play it too close") 5:12
                Track 05 - (the bassline carries the melody, wavy synth, female vocal "wait and see") 6:17 - got
                the chill bumps when that bassline kicks back in
                Track 06 - (washing machine synth, stabbing bass, male vocal I can't understand "tough call?")
                5:35
                Track 07 - (bassline carries the melody, emotional synth, xylophone keys, male vocal "lady can
                leave you, I tried...") 6:55 - this is only track I can recall hearing on another mix, it
                also reminds me of being vulnerable in a relationship
                Track 08 - (mean track, drum heavy, yelping vocal snippets, deep dirty bass, more distorted
                vocals) 5:20
                Track 09 - (throbbing bassline, long high pitch keys, stabbing synth, distorted news report
                sounding vocals, really busy soft melodic keys) 7:45 - got those chill bumps again
                Track 10 - (chilling wailing sythline, more wailing sounds, deep bass, wa-wa sounds, clav beats,
                male vocal "recent data show that the use of the drug extasy has increase
                dramatically in the US since the late 1990's...") 7:04

                      File info says 03, not exactly sure but I remember having this and his 2003 WMC promo at the same time

                        03 sounds about right

                              yeah, its the same mix i have at home. this one was on the first sets i got from ms way back in 02. nice one
                              the second half of this mix always creeped me out
