One way I go about creating a tracklist for a mix is to start off with a “seed” track. This is the kind of track that jumps out to me as incredibly awesome. It’s usually so incredible that it feels as if it’s begging to be mixed in. Once selected, the seed track influences the rest of the mix in terms of theme, key, and average tempo.
In this mi the seed track was the outstanding collaboration between Aly & Fila with the Egyptian singer Karim Youssef, a Middle Eastern-influenced vocal piece called “Laily”, which is the opening track of Aly & Fila’s 2013 album “Quite Storm“.
Another highlight in this mix is a simple mashup I created (track 6) called “Festival Rain”.
