This is everything that a mood-based playlist should be: expertly curated, fun and both universal in its theme and very specific in its selection. Not everything on here is minimal techno, per se, but its hard to argue that anything is less than great. There are a lot of more obscure tracks by Pantha Du Prince, DJ Koze and Matthew Dear. Jess has always a solid writer and really knowledgable about music. Beats is fortunate to have him.
