Like dEZ, I had to listen twice to form an opinion….which is normally a sign of a good challenging mix. Loved the dark ambient stuff at the start, couple of dodgy tracks transitioning into the prog, but then I liked most of the prog except around the Genesis mark. Overall, nicely done.
There are so many mixes to listen to anyway that any mix making you listen more than once has to have something about it.
Fantastic mix, sorry it took a while to get to it. lovely darkly ambient beginnings in to some fine progtastic tunes I had never heard. I must check out Shpongle and helios – the tracks used here are excellent. A definite keeper. Can’t wait for Disc 2 😀 😀 😀
Muff, you will need to amend your other covers; there’s a limit of 300kb in size so they are both too big for me to post. Cheers

Tune in…
It’s Always a real pleasure to listen to unknown prog artist (at least, unknown to me) of quality.
I only heard it once (streaming), I just finished d/l and will listen to it and air it on my radio, there are some real Prog-rock lovers out there.
So, after one hearing, all I can say is that I’m curious, and waiting for a few more listenings to give an advice.
I love the only ones I know, So I guess I will like the rest.
Congratulations for the covers, very professional.
that has to be cover design of the year.
