A lot of the FINRG artists were already in full flow by this point, possibly making Orfeus a surprising first choice until you skip through this absolutely on-point hour and a bit of NRG and early golden-era FINRG. The booking says a lot for Guld&#8217;s knowledge of the scene even 13 years ago, and Orfeus of course went on to use the deadly combo of Japanese and Finnish tracks in a lot of sets, a good few years before I started doing the same.<\/p>\n<p>This is a live recording via the mixer, giving a nice clean sound minus crowd noise and any nasty volume changes. The tracklist is a tricky one though, as apart from the obvious selections I&#8217;m having a really tough time identifying many. I love the first track after the intro, but up until the <em>Kraken &#8211; Epilim <\/em>combination I don&#8217;t have much of a clue what&#8217;s playing. Would anyone like to give it a go?<\/p>\n<p>Even without the tracklist this is a lovely set in classic Proteus\/Guld style &#8211; slanted towards NRG, plus melodic FINRG tracks as interludes that are still hard and dark enough to slot in smoothly. This might be my favourite of the Romancer sets I&#8217;ve discovered, but there&#8217;s more to come.<\/p>\n<p><strong>edit: <\/strong>Thanks to SteTN and Solvynt we&#8217;ve already got a pretty respectable tracklist.
