like the quiet build up and the subtle "echoy" pings ..really gives a mystical calming effect

somany complex sounds and melodies in here somehow work together ,,king of uplifing

very strong emotional build up here..like the percussion(symbols) combined with the flute melody

interesting transition here. almost "call to prayer"

sounds like we went from Tehran to Qatar. nice beat

rap area really breaks away from the sense of the piece up to this point. kind of cynical and harsh??

I don't generally say much good about myself!
But one thing I will say is that I don't give up easily, it's got a lot to do with being a Taurus person, a Stubborn bastard!  It doesn't apply to everything, only things I'm interested in, I've been taking drugs for forty years now! lol
Now is that because I like them or because I'm just a stubborn mother fucker!  a bit of both I reckon!
I have recently been having an utterly shit time in all aspects of my life and was fearing that I'd finally lost interest in mixing and just about everything else, but just because I haven't uploaded any new mix's doesn't mean I haven't been mixing them, believe me I've done loads of mixing over the last two or three weeks and they all Sucked or I would lose interest halfway through!
And my stubbornness paid off tonight, and this mix is it.
There are a couple tracks from Flo T, Snow on Christmas Eve and Everything.
There are loads of Banco de Gaia remix's from the newly released Re-written histories vol 5, and several tracks from oldskool rave producer ikon and lots more!

Stubborn As Fuck (DJ Mix)

Hi, I'm Jake a 56 year old music addict and drug fiend who is finally starting to see the error of his ways!!! (too late now and no room for regrets!) And by Error of my ways, I mean I can see how I've ruined the taking of certain drugs by abusing them! So now they no longer work properly!  I'm 40 years in now! and I am going to see it through till the end! A true Taurus person, Stubborn as Fuck!
For people who have never taken drugs, I suggest you start NOW! It's a Spiritual thing, You have to Expand your mind to accommodate the knowledge that will set you free! If you are good at meditating, then that will do as good, if not better, I'm shit at meditating! So it's drugs for me!  It's all about truth, and don't be fooled into thinking you can learn this by reading it in a book or listening to someone speaking about it, YOU CAN'T,  It must come from within your self,  A Realisation, Only then will You know the Truth! 
I got into Punk around 1982 and not long after discovered Hardcore Punk, around 1993 I finally allowed myself to get into Rave and then got into mixing.
I got into Oldskool Hardcore and Jungle when I turned 50! better late than never I suppose. haha
