New Mix! Canada Line

For the download link, just scroll to the bottom of the post.

New mix is out, and unfortunately it's rather short, 6 tracks in all, just like the "unfinished" Scenic Route. I guess I just don't have it in me to make 12 track/70 minute mixes anymore. I guess I still have it in me, 11 tracks at 54:54.

Anyway, this one is called Tsushima Masaki presents Garden City Sessions - Canada Line ~Blueprint~
Actually it's Canada Line ~Scenic Route~ now.

Why did I name the mix this? Well, I live in Richmond, BC (part of Vancouver), and Garden City is a road and area in Richmond, also, it just sounds good. The Canada Line part is because today it was just announced that the new subway/rapid transit service Canada Line will open in two weeks (August 17). The Canada Line connects Richmond to Downtown Vancouver and Vancouver International Airport (YVR) via train. A very big deal for not just us living in Richmond but people travelling to Vancouver via air.

I basically just put this mix together all in one two days. I may expand on it some day, that's why it's subtitled "Blueprint."

The mix is in the same vein as Kyoto Sessions - Scenic Route, as it's house instead of what I used to mix, trance. Scenic Rotue was actually never completed, as I only mustered 6 or so tracks in that mini mix, I suppose Canada Line ~Scenic Route~ is the completed version.

Every song is produced by a Japanese electronic artist, as was the case in Scenic Route. Scenic Route and Canada Line are meant to be samplers to Japanese style house and Nu Jazz (Electronic Jazz). I suppose I should have named it Japan Line though, ahaha.


I hope I haven't let anyone down, expecting another trance mix. I think the days of mixing trance music are behind me. I tried and failed last year to re-spark the Crystal Tokyo flame.

Then again, I bet not too many people still remember that little old mix that appeared in 2003.


I usually provide tracklists and cue sheets with my mixes for easy listening... but this time I think it's more fun if people try to piece together the songs I used. I'm thinking tracks 2, 3, 6, and 7 will be the hardest to ID.
