SM001 segwin “I marvel at his enthusiasm to drift into other genres” He’s being playing breaks since the 90’s……
segwin SM001 I have listened to plenty of 90s (Shelleys - Twilo) and other early two thousands mixes and none sound quite like what is featured on the Clash Mix as well as the Ibiza Sailboat tour (https://freqways.mdlbeast.com/gate1/sasha). Continue belittling me as an inexperienced fanboy as much as you want. Kumquat
Kumquat What’s “Orchard” you keep mentioning in your post. Is it a club? segwin What’s “Orchard” you keep mentioning in your post. Is it a club?
alistair segwin In my experience, a lot of folks that diss Sasha haven’t seen him live for at least five years. Best enjoyed in a packed club for at least four hours.
SM001 segwin No belittling intended on my part. We’re just having a discussion. And his recent mixes are a sound he’s championed for years.
alistair segwin I thought this was a very good set. I downloaded about six tracks from it which I have played loads. This is a pretty good example of what distinguishes him from Diggers.
segwin SM001 Mind sharing examples or specific tracks from earlier times that you would crate into his ‘eclectic/sound-scape’ category?
SM001 segwin I wouldn’t call it ‘eclectic’ for starters. It’s straight up breaks or stuff you can find on his LUZoSCURA playlist on Spotify.
ScottBailey segwin Papua New Guinea probably a good example. He was one of the few who would drop breaks tracks intermittently to make his set different to all the others. ‘I Trance You’ probably another good example. Can’t think of many other DJ’s who championed Guerilla Records more than he did back in the day. At least back then it was a mixture of stuff.
segwin alistair Interesting, both sets that I listed trump the Orchard in my honest opinion. @SM001 I am familiar with the LUZoSCURA playlist as I admin/mirror the Apple Music version of it. Interested in some of the breaks that Sasha would play out back in the 90s/2000s if you can share.
alistair segwin boiler room is a classic. One only has to go skin deep into a Sasha back catalogue convo before you conclude how good it is. Kleinenberg lol
Kells77 segwin I have an Annie on One mix from 2003 with Sasha & Zabiela, which is a breaks mix that’s about an hour long. I can put it up on WeTransfer if anyone’s interested?
sbando There’s a LUZoSCURA compilation in the works, is that correct? The orchard set was brilliant, imho.
