River replies: Actually, I can reveal to you that you dont have to wait so much longer! I am about to start working on the Vol. 2 with another dj from Denmark very soon! :) So you have something to look forward to! /DJ River


Turn the lights out, light some candles, call your lover, shut your eyes, and throw on this latest mix by DJ River. He'll take you on a journey into space and beyond - a wonderfully slow entry into the surreal.

This is an excellent mix. Very mature and experimental, yet with a common thread of constantly evolving and engaging soundscapes. It is reminiscent of Banco de Gaia in some parts and also William Orbit in others.
Very original though, relaxing, and intriguing. This is a haunting journey through space and mind. You could see yourself practicing deep transcendental meditation whilst listening to this music in the background. Or you can just sit in silence for a while and let your thoughts wander along the ever changing pathways created by the sound.

Be warned, this is not to everyone’s liking. I have been into this type of sound for a number of years now and have met very few people who appreciate this. There are also very few artists who can create the mood and depth that River manages to convey through his music. I think this mix will appeal more to the abstract amongst us. It is perfect for those introspective moods that some of us find ourselves in from time to time.

Thank you DJ River, I feel as if you made this especially for me. Peace and Prosperity to you.

A definite delivery of haunting, electronic feelings and symphonic, misty chills. Dark and intrepid, as if you as the listener are walking cautiously through the uncharter territories of space and time. This mix is an invitation to Reach out your mind and touch the unknown. When you do, You will find it Mysterious and Beautiful.

Your mixes was so cool up to now ... its hard to distinguish anything here just 1 monotonous deluge of random keystrokes on a synth.

Dont expect to jump around the room to this music, dont expect constant, pumping baselines. What you get in DJ Rivers Liquid Nonsense Vol. 1 is a cruisy glide through the spectral realm of Ambient & Psychill.
Its relaxing at times, with deep throbs sounding like heartbeats underneath chime-like piano samples; at other places it is like a cold and foreign world.
Liquid Nonsense Vol. 1 wont give you the same old tunes you may expect from DJ River, but it will hopefully excite and intrigue you with the fore-taste of Rivers new adventure into a refreshing genre of electronic music.

Liquid nonsense sounds very mature and refined. Certain sections of it reminded me of the stargate sequence from Stanley Kubrick's 2001 A Space Odyssey. There also were some very promising parts (such as the unique soundscapes) that I felt could have gotten more attention. But from what I've read this is the start of a different approach which really started to show at the end. The end was very solid. Good looks for the maturity shown here and for taking the music toward a fresh direction.

Sorry, River, not my cup of tea.
Instead, I'm listening to your older mixes.....

Looking forward to hear a new "Coloured" one.

Just Perfect.. Very psychedelic..my opinion, try found some tracks from future sound of london if u want a ambient experimental mix next time..ah and some tracks from tangerine dream is very good but hard to find!

Sorry mate, but for some reason I'm just not feeling this. I think you hit something spectacular with the coloured room sessions...but this is just not hitting it for me I'm afraid.

Whilst I understand that this is the first part of something bigger, I cant help but feel disappointed that after waiting so long it's not better.

Sorry...but I really hope you get some positive feedback.

Peace

Very atmospheric and haunting at first, then progressing into a more natural calm before it builds and gains momentum near the end. I'm excited to hear where these new mixes are going. Should prove to be an enlightening trip.

Hey River,
I've listened to your mixes now for quite sometime. I've enjoyed every one that you have created. You have a certain style of music selection and mixing that can *not* be matched.

In all honesty, I was expecting a new Ambient Chillout Mix to be released, however the new Liquid Nonsense mix completely blew away my expectations and raised the bar yet again.

Well done River. Your a talented man and I hope to hear more mixes from you.

Well, you've got that sense of mixing sounds to make us travel in another musical world.

Another voyage through space and sensations !

Keep up the good work. I'am pretty sure many other will appreciate this piece of your nice work.
