    love this idea! i got one. Huxley Box Clever, i don’t usually do this genre, i think its uk garage or house, but i thank my lucky stars i clicked on it, its a gem. i love finding these weird named, 1000 hits-artists on youtube, theres a lot of crap or just generic boring stuff but at least you’r eventually gonna find something new and different. i usually click on someone i don’t know, have a ten second listen and if any good look for other tracks of his that have the most views. it’s a system that takes a lot of time but works.
    it takes around 2 minutes to get into the meat of this song so i only realized after listening halfway through and then playing it for the second time what dancefloor potential it has (though i have never actually tried it out ): ).

    listening while coding i’ll comment as it plays:
    really really really really nice first track. sounds like “metal” trance. not at all cheesy which I find in a lot of trance.
    so far after 10 minutes sounding really good and smooth.
    nice gradual mix at 15 , i would’ve cut a tiny bit off the mids of the outgoing track to make more space for the incoming hi hats.
    25:20 you can cut out the out going track, i think you brought it back in though im not sure what you did.
    26:42 a bit of an iffy mix. the track or (or loop) is off beat but ok i guess, it seems superfluous anyway.
    29 nice effects, keep it tight ie. exactly till the drop, or whenever desired, but that takes a lot of practice.
    whats with the looping? seems to have kept coming back since ~27 or is part of the track, i cant figure it out.
    keep things simple and coherent.
    35 i wish it wasn’t such a sweet high pitched mix but that’s a matter of taste.
    47 i could see why u did the looping twice, not needed, imo, but sounds cool.
    48:15 very abrupt mix but perfectly legitimate. can be smoother but still good. i’ve seen top DJ’s stopping one mix or bunging up the beat for a few seconds to drop on the next track and if its a good(contextually fitting :)) track, an abrupt change it can be hugely effective.
    1:03 nice
    it’s really pretty good (too bad its trance music though)
