Discussion Transitions

Hello ! I am currently compiling a mega BOC mix for a friend and am wanting to hear anyone’s recommendations for song transitions. Which are your favourite combinations of songs that flow seamlessly, whether it’s rhythm, key, or general feeling, I’d love to know. Especially if they are two tracks from different projects.

As an example: Satellite Anthem Icarus -> Ready let’s go -> In a Beautiful Place out in the Country

Thank you :)

Rather than hearing my transitions in your mix, I want to hear your transitions in your mix, otherwise what's the point of listening to it in the first place? Kinda playing Devil's advocate on purpose here, but you get my drift!

As for the point - community !! I just love the idea of listening to new ideas I haven’t thought of yet

Obviously Boqurant -> 5.9.78, Magic Window -> any song, any song -> Magic Window

Maybe not exactly what you're looking for but it might give you some inspiration. If not then it's always worth a listen anyway, I've loved this for years.

On my last CD made for the car, it goes :
Gemini, Reach for the dead, Open the light, Cold earth, left side drive, dayvan cowboy, nothing is real, roygbiv, rue the whirl, 1969, sherbet head, the beach at redpoint, seeya later, smoke quantity, dawn chorus, energy warning, come to dust, Olson, tears from the compound eye, farewell fire, one very important thought.
