I know, this is way too late, but I figured I would post it anyway because I worked pretty hard on it. This mix was planned in December but then New Year’s came around and then I had to move to a new apartment and hunt for jobs. Excuses excuses…
These are the tracks which I liked the most in 2009. There were a few others that made the top list for me that just didn’t properly fit into the mix but this tracklist is definitely a good summary of my 2009. As you can see, a lot of tech influences, not too many vocals, and a lot of progressive stuff. It was a little bit hard to look back to the beginning of 2009 and remember what I was into then – music just moves so quickly these days. About 30 new tracks a week in the trance world makes it extremely difficult to keep up with current music, so remembering the past is even harder. But it’s always nice to look back and remember the songs that were stuck in my head for weeks during the year.
These tracks are definitely in a disagreement with Armin’s ASOT top 20 of 2009, which is a little bit unusual for me. But I think 2009 marks the year where I finally let go of my DJ-god-worshipping (a common ailment in the trance community) and developed somewhat of my own sound, which feels very good. Of course all of the tracks I put in my mix were played by a top DJ at one time or another but this set feels like it belongs to me, not Armin or Markus or some other big DJ. I hope you enjoy -
