Unicorns are Carnivores

Hi Everyone,

Josh asked me to start contributing mixes because I listen to a lot of electronic music that may not receive too much exposure on this blog. Here's a link to the first installment:
http://www.sendspace.com/file/d5nwg0

Tracklist:
1. Wayfarer - Kavinsky
2. Bootstrap - Pluxus
3. I Thought Inside Out - Chris Lake vs. Deadmau5
4. Rez - Underworld
5. H.I.A - Chemical Brothers
6. Good Things End - The Field
7. Feuerland - Justus Kohncke
8. Dummolator - Ricardo Villalobos

These tracks consist of some electro-house, techno, and minimal techno.

While I really like all these tracks, I want everyone to pay special attention to The Field. He is a Swedish minimal techno producer signed to Kompakt, an influential German label. He recently released an LP entitled "From Here We Go Sublime," and I've been listening to it non-stop. His production style takes samples and sounds that would otherwise seem ordinary and recontextualizes them, making them almost overwhelming. The entire LP is beautiful, and I'm sure you'll see more of him in my future mixes.

I haven't been doing the DJ thing for too long, so excuse a couple of sloppy beat-mixes on there.
