Hello folks! Winter is upon us here in the Northern Hemisphere, and we all need something to listen to while we huddle indoors. With that in mind, I've once again uploaded my latest mix CD for your MP3 enjoyment. As usual, I've included a tracklisting.

Yes, this mix does have 313 content. --- BEGIN TRACKLISTING --- DJ Eli B - Deep In Winter 2001 1. Soul Designer (aka Fabrice Lig) - Detroit Sound - FComm This is from Fabrice's "EP1," which I believe is his first full release for FComm. My favorite of all his latest records, this release is his usual beautiful detroit influenced melodic techno-house, but with much better production than anything before it. 2. Bushwacka! - Zebidee - Oblong This EP might make my top ten of the year, despite its nostalgic old-school feel. Both sides are included on this mix. This one is more of a mid-set track that sounds like 3 tracks in one: a big chord melodic number, an acid house track, and a funky techno track. 3. Jamie Anderson - In Two Minds - NRK The Jamie Anderson album rocks and there are two tracks from it on this mix. This particular cut is a spacey techno/garage hybrid. 4. Technasia - Force - Technasia Just love these guys...I'm sure you've heard this one before. 5. DJ Sneak - Juicy Beats - Magnetic DJ Sneak's new label is 3 for 3 so far - all good bangin' funky stuff with a decidedly raw edge. 6. Baruka - Play It Loud (Original) - Monoid Eukahouse re-released the long mix of this awhile back, but Monoid had the sense to put out the original which I prefer. The new remixes on this double are pretty much cack though. 7. Carsten Fietz - Fly By Wire - Choke I've been sleeping on the Choke stuff for awhile but not anymore. This is a niiiiice big bass track, really evil. Most of the stuff on the label is in a lighter, spacier vein. 8. Tim Xavier & Charles Little - Jackie's Chant - Contaminated Surprisingly good techno tool from Contaminated, good pitched down that is (i think this is at minus 5). Chunky tribal techno with some light chords and chanting sounds late in the track. 9. Steve Rachmad - Sinosphere - Sino Technasia's new sublabel Sino has put out a blinder here, definitely one of my tracks of the year. Deep, eerie tribal techno with some gorgeous sounds. Not too little, not too much, just riiiight. Look for a new Sino soon by John Tejada with a Rachmad remix. 10. Octave One feat. Ann Saunderson - Black Water (E Dancer Dub) - Concept UK E Dancer remixes Black Water, already stunning, and takes it on a super dark, late night tip. 11. Bushwacka! - Chorus - Oblong Off the same Oblong 12", this is an old school piano anthem redone for the new millenium with gorgeous production. Those who don't like a little obvious emotion in their techno should probably skip it. 12. Jamie Anderson - Puesta De La Sol - NRK Again from the new album...More garage/tech from the man. 13. Gemini - Body - NRK Really old Gemini classic from '97 that I found lying in the back of a bin. Every track on this EP is ace...this is one of the particularly deep cuts. 14. Soha - Gabbeh - Basic Julien Jabre and DJ Gregory as Soha are making some of the best deep house around right now, period. Their Africanism record blew my head off when Derrick May played it at the KMS afterparty in Detroit, and I've been a fan ever since. The latest Basic is some extremely deep, trippy stuff. The quality of the sounds here cannot be emphasized enough... The flipside of this record is the best cut but I like this one as well. 15. 4Hero - Fleur (King Britt remix) - Talkin' Loud Just awesome. Another track of the year. Can't really describe it. 16. Shake - Stereotype/Detroit State of Mind - Frictional Crazy abstract breaks and downtempo to settle your mind out at the end... Shake is the man! He performed amazingly well at the DEMF despite being crippled by multiple sclerosis. --- END TRACKLISTING --- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
