I think more needs to be done to promote this. Chances are most people don't know about it. I wouldn't have done had i not read this forum post.

Trouble is, there's LOADS of stuff to listen to out there and it's hard to find time to get round to it. Maybe the prospect of having to get through 7 mixes isn't that appealing to those with pathetic attention spans? Personally, i've only listened to 2 and a bit of the mixes so far, but i will manage the rest and provide feedback asap.

I have been trying my best advertising this. Got it up on multiple forums, bumping it every now and again. And it seems it has been getting out there, well atleast around Ottawa anyways. Physical copies have been made and been given around my area. It seems to be doing pretty well. Now just to get it to do well out of canada....

On the contrary, it makes it so you don't have to do anything to find music. It's all here on 7 CD's.

Who cares? It's not hard to click 'Download' and just ignore what you don't want to listen to.

I am going to be adding individual downloads soon, so people dont have to download the entire thing when they only want one genre. I do agree.

I finished listenting to this one today. Although I prefer the first release, it was very interesting to listen to a bunch of unknown tracks and especially different genres. I mean, I hate Dubstep, but I forced myself listening to the mix from the very first to the very last second. I doubt I ever will find my personal peace with that kind kind of music, but it still was interesting to notice all that different kind of genres, you are able to combine with Dubstep.
I personally was amazed by the Hardcore mixes and the Trance mix. The most surprising mix for me was the Breaks mix. I rather expected Ambient Trance or more sth like Drum'n Bass, but it was quite impressively refreshing.
Keep up your's and your fellows' good work!
Oh, and don't mind any kind of low appreaction. Tmo all the relative people have listened to it or still will. Effort always will be paid!

Well thank you for the feedback. I dont know why, but it seems a good amount of people were not looking forward to the dubstep mix, whats wrong with the genre? I found the mix to be really great!

I am only able to speak for myself, but I dislike the beat, the beat and simply the way how it sounds. I need a nice synthesiser melody and not sth that sounds like a digital fart (I mean this rattling sound). The closest connection I get with it is, when a short Dubstep Break is used in a Hardcore track.
For example:

I'm not too into Dubstep, but I really like the style and the great tracks that have come out of it. UKF Dubstep is pretty crucial though, because otherwise you have to sift through crap to find the good stuff.
Dodge & Fuski - Come Again is a personal fave. Give it a chance.
