Sunday, time to relax. A new week is upon us in just a few hours, and we need to regain our energy levels, to get us through it all. And the one you are about to listen to, is the perfect one. It contains the right amount of records, and is of the right length. Not too long, not too short. And of course, it's full of Trance anthems. I couldn't ask for more. Well, I could, but no one would be honouring my requests. Maybe a few more degrees, a nice cocktail, sun blasting on my skin, etc. But hey ho, at least I've got a great set to listen to...

The mix was shared with me by Push Continue, And I've already played it a few times, but it's not enough. This mix is really good, and has been received pretty well, if you read the comments under this mix on Soundcloud. I would agree, but it was missing something. Something crucial, and without it, I wouldn't write about it (or any other mix): it was missing a tracklist, but Push Continue gladly provided me with a list. Which isn't on the mix itself, so feast yourself on the list below!

But before I start talking too much, let's focus on what is actually in this mix. I'm guessing that, based upon the title of this mix, it's all about classics anthems. And we all love a bit of the classics, right? And as much as I love Trance music, and I am aware of each record, the names never stick in my head, and I'm very forgetful, so I was glad that Push Continue provided me with a list, which I'm now sharing with you all!

John O'Callaghan - Don't Look Back

Chris Lyf & Shara Dee - In The Now
John O'Callaghan feat Audrey Gallagher - Big Sky (Andrew Rayel Remix)
RAM - RAMsterdam (Joris van Deynhoven Remix)

What a wicked looking tracklist. A lot of big names in here. Push Continue has done a great job, composing a very interesing tracklist, in which only 1 song was unknown to me. But yeah, the 15 well known records are certainly, and certifiably bangers, that's for damn sure!

The euphoric level is quite high throughout this mix, and obviously every record is a banger. A great selection by Push Continue, And as bleak as it is right now (it's around 4pm on a Sunday, the outside looks dark and grim), this brings a smile on my face. It makes me think of better days, especially the summer days. The days when you would be dancing for hours on end, and not be cold, and miserable...

All jokes aside, it's a great mix. And two tracks stood out the most. 'Massive' is a massive record, and 'It's My Turn' a wicked classic. I could have gone for the biggest record of them all, which is 'Concrete Angel', but to me, the two mentioned are on a different level. Better, but that's just my opinion.

Hope you have a wonderful remainder of this Sunday, and have a splendid week. And if you are looking for a great entertaining mix, you can certainly give this one a go!
