'By Land' explores a slightly more rugged terrian starting with the beautifully deep 'Lost Souls Are Here' from Prime Edge. As you glance back to the water's edge you'll realise what may lay ahead may not provide the tranquillity of “By Sea” but you'll be soon be reassured that the same essence and quality of the music will be guiding you through this next part of your journey. The Great Escape, by the magician Volen Sentir, perfectly lifts your spirits with its gentle strings, airy vocals, and light percussion yet surprisingly chunky bassline. Next up, VICTHOR's sublime almost fairytale-like groove will have you nodding your head and tapping away. It's all a gentle slope down from there on in as Dee Montero & Newman's rework of the 70's classic by Sammi Smith drifts in, 'Shadows' demonstrates that sensitive use of classic vocals can still be so effective. Mariner & Domingo's medley of tracks works extremely effectively at the midway point, increasing the musicality further with crystal clear instrumentation and an incredible production clarity and depth of sound. It's audio perfection as birds of paradise call out to each other from the treetops of some tropical rainforest we've wandered into. There you will stay until you reach the second of Nick's productions 'Tundra' a rich, deep atmospheric low-end track that exudes peace and tranquility yet doesn't overlook the need for a serious bassline that delivers a solid base for any style of track to mix in or out of. And so all good things must come to an end as Andrew Meller & Depth Perception's 'Let's Get Down Tonight' serves up a perfect summer-themed end to the two mixes bridging them together perfectly. 'By Sea' and 'By Land' are intelligent and thought-provoking mixes showcasing perhaps a global consciousness to look once again at how music can unite us in a more peaceful, loving, and caring society. Yes, you can dance but it doesn't always need to be in the dark - step into the light, feel the sunshine, and connect with yourself and nature. That's my kind of learning and that's my kind of Classroom.
