DJ Aspeth

The wait is finally over! The first TweetMix has been released and is now available for download in both MP3 and Apple Lossless. The set was mixed live by DJ Aspeth and is entirely based on track submissions sent by her more than 38,000 followers on Twitter. The end result is an incredibly diverse but at the same time coherent electronic music set, which genres going from trance to progressive to electro-house.

Thanks to everyone who contributed to make this set, and if your favourite song didn’t make the cut this time, don’t worry: a second TweetMix is already being planned!

After more than five hundred submissions, the process of choosing just a few tracks for the first TweetMix has certainly not been easy. The good news is that it’s done and the mix should be available within the next few days. But there was space for only 13 songs, so many, many great tracks had to be left out. Which can only mean a second Tweetmix should be planned soon!

If your song has made the cut, congratulations. If it hasn’t, don’t worry, based on the amazing response to this initiative it’s very likely there will be plenty of opportunities for it to be included in future editions.

With that said, here is the tracklist selected for the first Tweetmix (the usernames of the people who suggested the tracks are in parenthesis):
