It’s been a tough choice as this was an exellent year for music. I planned to put a lot of my favorites in this. Although achieved I still had to leave out a few thumping good artists like Thom Yorke, Proem, Freescha, Xela, Home Video, Sigur Rós, Julian Fane, Ciaran Byrne, Helios and many more. They just didn’t fit the flow of the mix. I was about to end with a touch of Ambient but then the mix would’ve been way past the 74 min. marker and that is just too long. In spite of that I mixed a lot of my favorites in this, even more songs than in my previous Best of mixes. I tried to make it sound not too chaotic or disrespect the artist for putting too much songs in it. I guess that worked out fine.
