The Mandelbrot Set - Frosted Beats
Posted by Xaxoqual
So, it looks like I’m back with another mix to post - though this one isn’t so recent like the other ones. This time I’m pulling one back from mid december, but the tracklist is really nice so I wanted to share it and all. Mixings not amazing, a bit off in places - but fortunately theres no real train wrecks in sight. As for content, it starts out all female vocally and morphys into a techy minimal soundfest with lots of nice precussion and synth textures ( or I think so anyways). Again, length is about 1:15 or so. Speaking of length too, how is the size? Is this a good chunk for you guys or should I take more/less of my set? Input would be great on this!
Anyways, thanks for all the positive responses so far! I really appreciate them and I hope you enjoy this set too!

I have been listening to this while driving home from work on Wednesday night and for me it was the perfect tune for a long drive on the highway in darkness. The choice of tracks is great and the transitions between tracks are smooth, the beats made my speakers rock.
I’m pretty amazed by the quality and style of this set and can’t wait to listen to the others as well. Just the right stuff for my old techno heart … actually you had already won me with the first notes of “Running up that hill”
Concerning the length, this was purrfect for me, as it just fit on a CD. As I’m usually spending about two hours per day in my car, that’s where I listen to music most of the time, and as I don’t have any hip MP3 equipment in it, I have to stick to good old CDs, so anything around 75 minutes is great for me.
Awesome Tim! I’m glad you got to listen. Too bad you can’t make Xax’s live sets on Sunday nights (not your time zone, I think) but yeah, we are happy Xax has been posting those sets here. Thanks for the comment!
