Oh man, I love it when I can work some of my favorite non-house music into a set. The intro is a track by the forward-thinking Jam City played over a more traditional house song... from there I gradually build up the energy and work in some long tech house tracks, giving them room to open up and breathe in the second half of the set.

Tracklist:

01 Jam City - 500 Years

02 Nicone - Hysterminia

03 Oliver $, Jesse Rose - When We Heard Solid Groove (Jesse's Play It Down Dub)

04 Jonny Cade - Find My Way feat. Ria Moran

05 Guy J - Milestone

06 Kolombo, Zakari - Vapours

07 Nicone - Burnhain

08 Zimmer - Slave To Your Heart feat. Jeremy Glenn (Mercury Remix)

09 Booka Shade - Love Inc

10 Macromism - Untoldyou

11 Jay Lumen - So Long Sunshine

12 Dusky - Careless

13 Tony Quattro - Doubt
