I think this is a good start. I echo the earlier comment about the problem with the key and the build-ups. It is quite noticeable, but then it goes away when the beat starts. Of course it comes back again, but like you said it’s just a start.

I imagine you are a DJ yourself. Though coming down early is a good thing, the real test is when there are actual people in the venue. If you have an early slot that is prime-time for experimental tracks. And what is more experimental than a track of your own?

When it goes into that bit with the bassline that is speed-garage reminiscent I wasn’t expecting that. I had it down as jazzy/quirky. All the better for taking you where you don’t expect it to go!

If Eliah Holiday is your real name that would be an awesome name to use. Me personally I prefer name that sound like a real person, but not quite. Calvin Harris is a prime example. You’s think it was his real name, but it gives you a blanket to hide under if necessary. I think when you are establishing yourself you don’t want anything pretentious. But Eliah, Elias or Elijah Holiday/Halliday etc fits that perfectly.

Hi

Thanks for putting me up on the fact that Eddie Murphy has a new album coming. When I first saw the first track of the mix I was definitely wondering! In a good way it reminds me of a set by Diplo. I guess it’s the bit where it goes to Moombahton.
