30-some mix albums by artists Stef and MrCam. Genres include Club, NRG, Trance, Goa, and Chillout. I am particularly enjoy the last 10 minutes or so of Stef's "Maya."

Latest release from Statistics, Leave Your Name.

] The debut full length from Statistics refuses to be
] pinned down to any one style, rather the record spans the
] sonic spectrum with an impressive collection of power pop
] song craft, steadfast hooks and textural soundscapes.

Synth and rock elements blend together to make an excellent album. This works well when listened to straight through, it has a flow to it that is very satisfying at the end. I get the same feeling here as when I listen to New End Original's Thriller.

Track 10, Reminisce, is available in MP3 from jadetree.com, though it is far from the best on the album.
