• ariz0na - Last Stand

ariz0nas_last_stand_cd_cove.jpg

The last dj ariz0na mix starts off with some spooky progressive house before following a familiar format - progressive house into progressive breaks into progresive trance. Not all of the ariz0na sets follow this format, but most of my favorite ones do. The reasoning behind this is that I believe that going from progressive house to progressive trance is just too obvious and too easy for everyone involved. Thousands of DJ's make mixes like that every day. I do not find it compelling, but make no mistake - I do think it's a good idea when one is DJing live to take the momentum they've got. But this is not a live CD, this is a mix CD, designed through mixing to take you several different places and leave you somewhere that feels pretty far away from where you began. This is a mix built to compell and push the comfort levels once again, and it is a mix to finish what I started 9 years ago when I first started giving out mix CDs.

Funny, I was going to say the same thing except now I believe in Agartha... and communism.

The set is inspiring indeed!

sorry to flog, but Davin, you should really air this on Proton... This is such a strong set. Just get someone to top it up with a 40-minute item.
