As a writer for an electronic music publication you have by default signed yourself up to a continuous slew of boring press releases, many of which seem like they could have been written by a retired accountant or maybe a even an aging dental hygienist. Canadian producer Wax Romeo, who takes the spotlight on today's MIXED BY, has a description that is anything from mundane, and it fits the nature of his mix to a T:"Monsieur Romeo continues his quixotic journey through the landscape of house, disco, and techno, armed only with a winning smile and delusional self-confidence. If your party needs some step, he'll get here fast, driving his empty brown limousine in the carpool lane. Get aroused. " In the daily humdrum of emails from humorless publicists, it's always wonderful when something special like this comes across my desk. This mix from Wax Romeo is packed deep with 15 originals from the mind of the Calgary-based producer, and it's an enthralling journey through the many winding walls of techno and house music. If you didn't know Wax Romeo's name before tuning in to this mix then I got news for you people—everything's about to change. Lock in.Tracklist:
