I’ve recently started crawling through the complete works of H.P. Lovecraft and have found them really inspiring. One story in particular, Celephaïs, stuck out at me. It recounts the journey of a man who escapes reality for a dream world, only to find at some point he has crossed over completely. If you haven’t read it, I highly suggest you take a few minutes and do so. This mix is based on my interpretation of his journey.
This mix’s mechanics and blending showcase the most careful and precise transitions I’ve made so far. It is admittedly one of a few attempts to get it just right, but I’ve become comfortable enough with my tracks and equipment that I feel this represents a new standard for my blending.
