Tiesto recorded this Essential Mix for BBC Radio 1, first broadcast on 18 July 2004 — the 3rd of their 6 Essential Mixes in the Waveform archive. It lands in the early-2000s era of progressive sounds and superstar DJs, and the set sits in Progressive, Trance and House territory.
A full tracklist for this broadcast has not been documented — the recording runs as one continuous set. It aired in a year that also brought Essential Mixes from Infusion, Switch, Adam Sheridan.
