The shadow of concrete ruins mix Its been a while since I created a mix on the Pacemaker device, but a recent trip to Budapest gave me some time to try out a few new tunes in a mix. This mix is a real banger, with a lot of really great tunes alongside some classic ones to anchor the mix. Weirdly enough, the mp3 recorder ran out of battery just near the end and I had to recreate the last 3 tunes.

Helsinki familiar stranger mix About a month ago I was in Helsinki for the Mydata conference, one of the things I like to do is find new places. A guy I knew from Manchester suggested a really amazing speakeasy place to me, while I complained about the sugar-horrific gin & lemon in a can one night. So I checked it out and thought it was a fantastic bar, although having your phone locked away when you needed to know the last train is quite something. However I met a stranger at the bar and we talked for a while and even walked back to the train station. Then on a second night after going to the theme park in Helsinki, he was there again. Although not a familiar stranger, it was some inspiration for this mix. Recorded on the flights back to Manchester and a bit of tweaking, I present the Helsinki familiar stranger mix at 192k on peertube and now finally on my own peetube mixgarden in full quality. 1. 00:00:00 – Industry – Green Martian 2. 00:05:49 – Bloodmoon (Extended mix) – Jarome Isma & Tone Depth 3. 00:10:59 – Intruder – Armnin vs M.I.K.E 4. 00:16:39 – Erase – Brooks Aleksander 5. 00:20:14 – Inferno – Carl Cox 6. 00:24:39 – Eclipse – Neo 7. 00:28:08 – Shnokel (Thank you city remix) – Ido Ophir, Miki Litvak 8. 00:30:56 – Open up (full vocal mix) – Leftfield 9. 00:33:56 – Circles – Robert Nickson 10. 00:39:02 – Seven Cities (V-one’s living cities mix) – Solar Stone 11. 00:45:03 – Home (Cosmic gate remix – Paul Van Dyk Feat Johnny Mcdaid 12. 00:50:50– Indigo – 4×4

Terminal velocity unhindered by dark clouds mix I flew to Amsterdam and travelled around the Netherlands via trains recently. As usual I started a new mix slowly building on it with new tunes as I went around the Netherlands. There are quite a few new tunes added but the final mix was done on a KLM flight back to Manchester. During that flight, a flight assistant asked me about the Pacemaker device. Its not the first and won’t be the last, as I have had not only flight assistants but even fellow passengers ask about it. I still remember when a KLM flight assistant mistaken the Pacemaker device for a walkie talkie? Honestly our conversation was really good, and who knows maybe she will read this and have a smile on her face. Also reminds me I need to have cards just for Digital Italic and my mixes (Moo cards I got a order for you!) Anyway about the mix… This long worded mix is longer than usual but keeps the pace of about 140bpm. This mix is a real back and forth with some vocal trance alongside tech trance. I have been listening to this mix quite a lot since coming back and still find it great. Finally I’m finding a bit more time to fix parts of my setup, but for now my mixes exists on Peertube only. Enjoy this mix and play it loud! 00:00:00 – Witness – Baced! vs Aces delight 00:04:16 – Lost in you (Extended mix) – Scorz feat Adriana Stone 00:08:50 – Sequence (Extended mix) – Estiva 00:13:53 – Marama (Moon & Stars) – Ferry Corsten presents Gouryella feat Saskia Lie Atjam 00:18:41 – Tell nobody – Basil O’Glue 00:26:41 – Decade (extended) – Chris Element 00:31:02 – Arist of your life (Extended mix) – London & Niko 00:36:37 – Brute (Extended mix) – Ferry Corsten and Armin Van Buuren 00:42:38 – Massive motion – M.I.K.E 00:47:27 – Mission – Basil O’Glue & Nomas 00:50:42 – Dark side of the moon (RYDEX extended remix) – Susana 00:54:21 – Energy crash (Extended mix) – Maarten De Jong

A Storm in a french grapevine pacemaker device mix Recently I found myself in rural southern France and of course, my Pacemaker device and headphones came with me. It was weird being surrounded by nothing but grapevines. Certainly wine country. I took a nice shot with a very rare dark sky. With a bit of tweaking, you got the cover for a storm in a french grapevine. The tunes are certainly not safe for work, and I just doubled down on the nsfw tunes with a uplift in bpm too.

Something for the headphones on your Monday morning commute. Just don't sing it out loud 😅.

The Aerodynamic connection mix On my last trip to Europe, I flew to Amsterdam to get a train to Brussels and flew back from the awful Brussels South airport. I won't be doing that again if I can help it. During that time I got time to another Pacemaker device mix. The self hosted mixing site is still broken, its a thing I am trying to fix as its a bigger problem with Yunohost and the bookworm update.

The Aerodynamic connection mix On my last trip to Europe, I flew to Amsterdam to get a train to Brussels and flew back from the awful Brussels South airport. I won’t be doing that again if I can help it. During that time I got time to another Pacemaker device mix. The self hosted mixing site is still broken, its a thing I am trying to fix as its a bigger problem with Yunohost and the bookworm update. So its peertube again. (I noticed the mix points links include the domain, which means I can add them here too) Recorded in two parts on a plane and on the coach to the airport, then stitched together because of the short flight and being bounced around on the Flibco bus. This mix has a lot of the tunes I’m loving at the moment but also a bit of throw back too. It truly is a mix across 2 different countries. Enjoy the mix and see if you can work out which half is Dutch and Belgian? 1. 00:00:00 – You got the love (Sonny Noto remix) – Florence + The machine 2. 00:04:10 – 9910 (extended mix) – Orjan Nelsen 3. 00:08:06 – Wonder of life (F&W remix) – Tukan 4. 00:12:56 – Killer Instinct – Sneijder & Bryan Kearney 5. 00:19:22 – Exactly -John O’Callaghan & Kearney 6. 00:23:03 – Surga (extended mix) – Ferry Corsten presents Gouryella 7. 00:26:45 -Tell nobody – Basil O’Glue 8. 00:30:26 – Cut and Run feat Emma lock – Beat Service and Emma Lock 9. 00:36:50 – Interstellar (YORK’s back in time extended mix) – Torsten Stenzel 10. 00:41:40 – Never be the same again (wavetraxx extended mix) – Jaron Inc. & Wavetraxx 11. 00:45:00 – We Ain’t Ever Coming Down (Jody 6 Extended Remix) – Antonio Moreno 12. 00:49:40 – Artist of your life (extended mix) – London & Niko 13. 00:56:31 – Higher state – Kevin Crowley

Delirium and encounter at the Berlin watergate mix I mentioned in the last post which was another mix. I have been out and about quite a lot, with time for creating more mixes. My self hosted mixing site is a little broken at the moment, so I’m relying on peertube again. This mix was recorded as you can guess in Berlin during Republica in late May. I had some time before heading back to the UK and decided Berlin needed something a little lighter from the previous ones I did on the Berlin ring. Walking across Oberbaumbrücke, I was reminded of my time at Watergate club in the early 00’s, which is now closed down. This mix is a combination of tunes, starting dark and moving into something lighter. Delirium and encounter is certainly something I experienced at Watergate and many of the other clubs in Berlin. Credit to the excellent picture of Oberbaumbrücke used under CC-BY-NC use. Enjoy the mix and imagine dancing in Watergate looking out across the spree to Kreuzburg 1. Arrival – ANU 2. Shnorkel (Thankyou City Remix) – Ido Ophir, Miki Litvak 3. Wrist Block (Joey Beltram remix) – Side Four 4. Sequence (Extended mix) – Estiva 5. The Decent – Protoculture 6. Collider (Jorn van Deynhoven remix) – Thomas Bronzwaer 7. Inferno – Carl Cox 8. Shadow World – Thomas Bronzwaer 9. Decade (extended mix) – Chris Element 10. She moves (extended mix) – Andy Moor Ft. Carrie Skipper 11. Megalodon – MaRLo

Freedom frequency in the Netherlands mix I started this mix following the one in Malta, It's been kicking around on my phone for a while but didn't sound quite right. With my flight from Amsterdam I got time to redo it and decided on the fly to give it more tunes, which just worked. I use freedom, as its my first mix now being free from the BBC and although nervous, gives me a lot of freedom which I'm starting to fully understand.

Freedom frequency in the Netherlands mix I started this mix following the one in Malta, It’s been kicking around on my phone for a while but didn’t sound quite right. With my flight from Amsterdam I got time to redo it and decided on the fly to give it more tunes, which just worked. I use freedom, as its my first mix now being free from the BBC and although nervous, gives me a lot of freedom which I’m starting to fully understand. I feel like I’m on a different frequency. This was done during the flight and slightly edited at the end because the air pressure in my ears made it more difficult to hear the mix fully. I won’t lie this mix kicks and is full of highs and deep tunes, hope you enjoy it too. Enjoy on Peertube or my own mixgarden 1. Gouryella (Alan Fitzpatrick Tribute to ’99 extended remix) – Gouryella & Ferry Corsten 2. Aluminium (Extended Mix) – Robert Nickson 3. Fade To Grey (Moreno J Remix) – Visage 4. Inferno – Carl Cox 5. Seven Cities (V-One’s Living Cities Remix) – Solarstone 6. Killer Instinct (Original Mix) – Sneijder & Bryan Kearney 7. Erase – Brooks Aleksander 8. Whites Of Her Eyes (Original Mix) – Simon Patterson 9. Inferno (Space 92 remix) – Carl Cox 10. Emotions Of Colour (Extended Mix) – Cosmic Gate 11. Tell Nobody – Basil O’Glue 12. Floyd (extended mix) – Jerome Isma-Ae & Alastor 13. The Girl With Her Head In The Clouds (Ellie’s Song) (Extended Mix) – Factor B 14. Adagio In G Minor (Extended Mix) – DIM3NSION 15. Outlaw (extended mix) – Fatum

Absolutely! I will keep an eye on the Discord.
I am holding on to the #pacemakerdevice but I don't think it will last much longer...Hopefully the drift will be ready around the same time 😊

Discover the truth about Malta (Tell no one) mix I recently dropped one of Pacemaker devices while in Malta but I was able to get a mix off it before it stopped. While on the plane I created a couple of mixes. This is a early version of a longer version I did later in the flight. Originally I did think about recreating it once I got back to the UK with the last working Pacemaker device, I decided it just needs to be as it is, and maybe one day I'll try and recreate the ending.

Originally I did think about recreating it once I got back to the UK with the last working Pacemaker device, I decided it just needs to be as it is, and maybe one day I’ll try and recreate the ending. There are certainly some crossfader mistakes or changes I would do instead but I did enjoy this mix. Hopefully you will all enjoy this shorten mix complete with a series of new tunes Enjoy! Listen on peertube or on my personal mixgarden. The tunes used… 1. Invada (S.H.O.K.K. Extended Remix) – Binary Finary 2. We Ain’t Ever Coming Down (Jody 6 Extended Remix) – Antonio Moreno 3.

Dropped my #pacemakerdevice (DJ not heart)... No mixing on the plane today. Hopefully I can fix it otherwise I am down to the last one. 🤐
Can't wait for the #driftdj #driftzero to finally be available.

No idea why they're not on the fediverse? 😔

Never fading to grey mix I recently got some new tunes mainly for the party mix I last shared. While checking out a number of new tunes, I discovered the amazing Tell nobody by Basil O'Glue and instantly thought this driving tune is tech trance at its best. I needed to mix it along side Follow Me (Jerome Isma-Ae Extended Remix) by Jam &amp; Spoon.

R&D advisory and labs winter party dance to this mix (2024 edition) I recorded this mix live on the Pacemaker device's build in recorder/editor while mixing at our work end of year do. Its a little ropey in places but its all mixed live and with new tunes that I wouldn't normally mix with. This is similar to the Amstels thriller chiller mix in some of the tunes. As it goes out on&hellip;

Amstel’s thriller chiller mix I think of this mix as the evil little child born in Amsterdam during the freaky time of Halloween. Another travel with Pacemaker mix, this time flying to Amsterdam for a conference over Halloween.…

So much happening, take a break, grab some headphones and have a listen to my latest #pacemakerdevice mix, Amstel’s thriller chiller - cubicgarden.com/2023/11/18/a...

Made during Halloween (feels like a long time ago now)
