Taken from Ben Brown’s Website:
This past fall, Seneca Giese at Audio Logic Recordings invited me to be involved with the first in a new mix compilation series. The title of the series stems from the series of parties we had done here in Chicago by the same name, and this first installment is an extension of those events in addition to being an expression of my personal taste in electronic dance music material.

This piece was done entirely in Ableton Live, with each track being highly edited and remixed to fit more cohesively in the entire mix. Features of each of these individual tracks appear throughout the mix… some are obvious, some are hidden a little deeper.

The process wasn’t like a normal DJ mix; it was a much more ‘produced’ and premeditated concept. I chose the tracks that went well together before considering the flow of the mix in its entirety. For example, the first transition completed was the last in the final mix; the great Ricardo Tobar remix of Fairmont’s “I Need Medicine” layered, looped, and edited over the entirety of Jamie McHugh’s beatless electronica track, “Stammer”. Each of these ‘track-to-track’ transitions were done independently. Eventually I had good amount of larger chunks consisting of 2 or 3 tracks that were then combined into the sections which then formed the entire mix.

About the Moonbeam and Funky Bastard remixes

Tyler Michaud and the New School Recordings crew approached me about a remix for the Moonbeam track in the early fall of ‘08 but I had to pass on it initially. I had the samples and realized after a few weeks that the melodies and atmosphere in the track were perfect for an opening track. We got it approved for the mix and I worked it into the intro track. Turned out to be a nice chill/melancholic opener for the CD.

I wanted to include the original mix of TFB’s Koalas For Breakfast but just couldn’t find a way to do it justice in the mix, as it’s such a good piece of organic guitarness on it own. I knew I wanted to remix the track when I heard it and worked it into a bit more of a summery tune with more dancefloor energy for later in the mix.

I had fun with the mix. This was my first endeavor into the official DJ Mix Compilation world, and I’m fairly happy with the results. I hope you are too.

P.S. The cover pic was taken outdoors in February.. was -10F with wind chill during that shoot, so that’s why I look cold. Thanks to Jason Warth for the great cover design, photos, and for making me look at least a little bit better than bad for the cover.

Chicago & Istanbul native Tolgar, debuts with his first original on Audio Logic Recordings titled Transistor Radial. The tune is an electro-house banger that gets down to business straight away instead of building up with each element. Tolgar produces serious effects on the bass channel, which make each sound-effect like it’s own element within the track! Crazy arpeggios give the tune it’s groove and pitch shifts are created from varying the octaves. Tolgar bit crushes many elements to give it a grainy feel and makes Transistor Radial a perfect tune for the electro heads.

Dub Mechanics from Los Angeles, provide a stripped back and groovy alternative to Tolgar’s raw arrangement. They lead into the wicked bass that makes the original unique and add a sub-bass that after hearing makes it hard to stand still. Punchy percussion drives the track and as the arrangement breaks down, tension builds to a sudden drop and hits hard on the floor.

Newcomer on Audio Logic, Nico Heins, offers a fresh interpretation of Transistor Radial. Nico’s approach is deeper and he picks up on the progressive sound you are familiar with on Audio Logic. Lush pads and eerie leads add space throughout the mix and the wicked bass from the original is placed well with excellent effects. Nico Hein’s ethereal sound and infectious groove rounds out the package.

DJ Reactions

Behrouz – I like the Nico Heins remix and will play it. Thank you. 7/10

Blende – Definitely the Original Mix for me.

Blue Room Project – Nico Heins version is a bit haunting but works well for me.
8/10

Chad North – I like all the mixes! Dub Mechanics has this dark, groovy shit going
on and I can definitely hearing this going off at an underground club. It’s the late-night one of the bunch. The Nico Heins remix is pure class. From the build-up to when it opens up… the pad and added bass takes the track to an entirely different place. The Original mix just gets stupid! Not simply a head-nodder… it commands your attention and drops like a fucking hammer. This is a party track – straight up. Nice one… full support 8/10

David Call – This package epitomizes what I’ve come to expect from a new Audio Logic release. Understated elements that provide a unique groove unlike the kind of music I’m usually into. Definitely the Nico Heins remix for me as it provides the catchy hook I’m always drawn to. 9/10

Dylan Rhymes – I prefer the original mix to all the others. Original is much chunkier and ballsy! Well done!

Flash Brothers – Cool Stuff! We like the Nico Heins remix. 7/10

James Zabiela – The Nico Heins Remix is cool, thanks. 7/10

Johan Soh aka Jariten – With squelchy basslines and that bleepy edge that I love, this Tolgar release presses all the right buttons!

Kares – Tolgar’s mix is definitely my favorite! Bass heavy and like an
Invitation to the pants party! It kind of reminds me of Mario eating the mushrooms and growing bigger.

Mashtronic – The Nico Heins remix is my pick here… Nice release. 7/10

Mike Hiraztka – Cool grooves and effected bits, nice production all around. 7/10

Nosmo – Slamming release for Audio Logic. These will definitely be peak time mixes. The bass guitar and intricate environments of the Nico Heins mix make that the one for me. Go Tolgar! 7/10

Pablo Decoder – Fat bass and wicked noises! I like the original mix a lot.

Seneca – Love the Dub Mechanics punch and Nico Hein’s remix is extraordinary! 8/10

Solarstone – Audio Logic is one of very few labels that get me excited when I go through the glut of promos each week. As hot chocolate so deftly put it; “every one is a winner!” 10/10

Stephan (Progressive-World.at) – Pretty chunky original mix! I didn’t see that coming on Audio Logic. Dub Mechanics Mix is a bit better than the original in my opinion. The Nico Heins remix on the other hand is a really nice piece of music! It gets my support for sure!

Thomas Sagstad – Nico Heins remix is growing on me.
