DJ Sebas Arcabascio Mixes:
Whats up + thanks for stopping by to check out my mixes. Just to let you know all my mixes below are entire sets ranging from 60min to 80min in length. Below are some suggestions about my mixes that I feel may help you figure out which mix is best for you.
Erotic - [Trance], this was my first mix, its Old Skool Trance + to be honest the mixing wasnt all that great but has sum great Trance tracks on it.
Set Me Free - [Trance - Highly Recommend], Out of all the mixes that I have I would rate this mix as my best mix thus far. Most people rate either this mix or Awaken Me as my best mix. If youre looking for some pure Old Skool Trance tracks from Oakenfold, Tiesto + Armin Van Burren then this is your mix.
Awaken Me - [Trance - Highly Recommend], This mix is pure Trance like Set Me Free + has some great old skool Trance tracks on it, this is probably my second best mix that I have. This mix also has some very Old Skool Trance tracks from the same artist as Set Me Free.
Alpha + Omega [House + Trance] this mix follows on the same theme as Set Me Free + Awaken Me except at the end of the mix I add some Old Skool House tracks.
Korean Symbols [House + Trance - Highly Recommend], this mix is when I start getting out of Trance slightly + more into Old Chicago House tracks. Be warned it starts out with Trance, but after a few tracks the rest is all House.
Timeless [House + Trance], this mix keeps the same theme as Korean Symbols with some more Old Chicago House tracks. This mix also starts out with Trance, but after a few tracks the rest is all House.
Jump Start [Dance + House Highly Recommend], on this mix are started to get more into some Dance tracks. On this mix you will hear more common radio tracks + Top 40 tracks mixed in with some House tracks.
Fluid [Dance + House - Highly Recommend], once again on this mix I follow the same theme as Jump Start but this mix has less Top-40 tracks and more Dance tracks on it. This mix + Jump Start are my best dance mix.
Equilibrium [Electronic + House + Trance], this mix I wanted to have more edge to it by using Deep House + Electronica tracks. With tracks from Underworld + Dave Ralph + David Forbes + Paul Oakenfold I tried to make this mix with more variety on it.
Cum Ful Circle [House + Trance], the title says it all, I wanted to go back to pure Trance + start to introduce one of my all-time favorite DJs Pete Tong into this mix. This mix starts out with pure Old Skool Trance tracks then closes with House tracks from Pete Tong.
Euphoria [Deep House + Trance], on this mix I introduce for the first time another all-time favorite of mine Sander Kleinenberg to this mix. This mix blends both Deep House tracks with Vocal House tracks + some Trance.
Surreal [Deep House + Trance Highly Recommend], on this mix I decided to use my top three DJs on this mix + it turned out to be the rite choice. How can you go wrong when u have Sander Kleinenberg, Armin Van Buuren, Tiesto + Dave Ralph closing the mix. Most fans say this is the closest I have come to making as great a mix as Set Me Free.
Bac 2 Basics [Deep House + Trance], the tile says it all, getting to the basics about finding some great old tracks. I wanted this mix to have attitude, more edge + a faster feel to it. If you like Layo + Bushwacka this is your mix with some old John Digweed tracks on it.
Respect [Electronica + Trance Highly Recommend], this mix has more artist on it then any other mix that I have. The result is another great mix with tons of different genres on it. I also introduce on this mix Misstress Barbara + local Detroit DJ Kennith Thomas. If your looking for something new + different this mix as your name on it.
Reminisce [House + Trance Highly Recommend], on this mix I wanted to take three of my mixes + combine the best tracks from each into one mix. This mix takes tracks from Awaken Me, Korean Symbols + Timeless into one complete mix. There are more Old Skool Chicago House tracks on it then Trance.
Deutschland [Trance Highly Recommend], if you love Paul Van Dyk, then this mix is nothing but 78min of pure trance by PVD. I used over 13 diffrent sets from 8 locations to but together one hell of a mix perfectly titled Deutschland.
Promo Mix [Electronica - Highly Recommended], I wanted to create a greatest hits kind of thing with this mix. So what I did was take one track from each of my first 17 mixes. The result was an awesome mix with lots of great tracks on it. This mix mainly is Dance, House + Trance
