Vizualite, a native of Bend, Oregon, recently released one of the best melodic mixes I’ve heard to date. It features a few well-known tracks, including RL Grime’s most recent “Stay For It” with LA artist Miguel, and a classic Flux Pavilion remix of “Cracks” by the Freestylers.
One thing that stands out to me the most is the track selection of this mix. Not all mixes and sets have to be JUST about the transitions or the matching beats. Those are key elements, but if you don’t have a decent track selection you’re missing out on 2/3rds of your potential. I’m glad I got the chance to listen to this mix. It’ll be on repeat in my car for quite some time.

One thing that really stands out to me, and something I appreciate in any electronic music track that has it, is a strong melody with a broad spectrum. It gets me in a mood where I just want to get in my car, and go wherever the road ahead takes me.
I love driving to melodic tracks, whether it’s Drum N Bass, Future Bass, House, or Dubstep. There’s something to be said about those artists that tap into your inner thoughts and feelings through music. For me, the best way to do that is through those strong melodies.
