A few years back they recorded a track together called Deep Love 9, which includes a sample of a woman repeating the words "waves of love". It is a very lovely track.

Some years ago when I was checking out movies from my favorite local library branch and I was shocked to accidentally discover the source of the sample that JSJ used. Here is the whole quote...


"So little? So little did you say? Why if there is nothing else there is applause. I've listened backstage to people applaud. It's like waves of love."

This quote was spoken by Anne Baxter playing Eve Harrington in the 1950 classic All About Eve (which received fourteen Academy Award nominations, for which it won six Oscars including Best Picture and Best Director). Truely a great film that I highly recommend, as well as the JSJ track.

I recorded this mix as, more or less, one of my possible answers to that question. Or perhaps instead of an answer it is a possible extension of the question. So, is this mix 'progressive'? Leave a comment or email me with your answer.

In addition, I would like to know if you like the mix. Please give me your feedback. I have not spent any time mastering it per se; I haven't fixed the levels and I converted it to a lower mp3 bit rate than usual. If there is sufficient interest or demand I will spend some time cleaning up the mix, fixing levels, etc. and make the mix available at a higher bit rate and on CD. If you want a copy on CD, let me know. Leave a comment below or email me: dan at lickthedj.com (make "at" an @ symbol of course).

Does "progressive" mean or imply crappy? Is this a mix of crappy music? Is this a mix of good music? Is this a mix of progressive music?
