Welcome back, EJ.
Synthetik was very much worth the wait!
It gave me a renewed appreciation for tech-house.
Well done!

WOW!! I've listened to Synthetik 8 times already and it never gets old! Thanks for yet another great mix!

Thank you to everyone for the positive comments...
To address some of your comments:
Jed: As far as using music for a demo reel, you would have to attain a licence by the record label to use the tracks in your demo reel, which would most likely come with some costly fees.
Sean: The font used for Synthetik is called "Querround".
If anyone is curious, the album cover for Synthetik was done by Rachel Diamond Photography. You can view her work at http://www.racheldiamondphotography.com.

Superb, I find very interesting how progressivity is one of the main elements of your mixes, I listened to 2012 during a trip and when the track was about to fihish, I realized that I was over the speed limit, I really got into the music, and I really was lucky (didn't get a ticket nor had an accident), thanks for the track and thanks for keeping it free, there's few people who keeps their tracks free. Nice pic too, I love Rachel's Work, hope to get to know you guys, you inspired me to do what I do... So long.

Hi Eric.
Once again, an amazing set. recently, I was played the the tracks 11. Freq - "Awaken" - Lish Remix and 12. Freq - "Space Needle" in my progressive set.
Congratulations for the excellent job in Rachel Diamond Photography.
I would like to know... Do you use a particular program to edit the tag of your mixes??
Thanks and Hugs from Brazil.

hey, Mr. Jordan,
just wanted to thank you for offering you great mixes!
please keep that good work up!
much respect from Germany~

I'm impressed.
You do great work, but nothing had really caught me and made me listen over and over again since... probably shade and aura/light. Some of the stuff sounded a bit forced or reflected that you may have been stressed out.
This has a bit of urgency to it, I can tell you were looking forward to doing this mix after the move, but it isn't trying to force anything. I love it. This one is going on the zune and into the car. Keep it up.
