Thread inspired by Sasha playing that Skrillex/Four Tet abortion - what other examples do you have? Either hearing it in person or in a recorded set qualifies.

To kick off with I’ll stick with Sasha - heard him play this travesty at Urban Gorilla:

Zabiela@SW4

Timmy Regisford @faith v secretsundaze

Harvey@MOS (last tune)

Fuck me I’ve been to some iffy nights….I was too fucked to complain that night.

Harvey@Barbarellas

    Crikey, you lot have been unlucky!

    sasha the kitchen set. mixed into ice t. think it will be hard to beat

    I was at this one also….shame as he was excellent tbf…awful track.

    Dan How can you say that’s a bad record. Wash your ears out!

      My Mum has hacked Alistair’s account!

      SM001 having narrow music tastes is nothing to be proud about. You need to spend more time with the opposite sex mate 😂

          Some fucking shockers here. Bending the rules a bit, but Orbital with Belinda Carlisle’s Heaven on Earth. I just walk away.

          Seen Harvey drop Mandy Smith just can’t wait (cool & breezy mix).. Great open minded DJ.

            When I first started going out around ’97, every major house dj seemed to be getting on the garage bandwagon, remember some shocking garage tracks being incongruously dropped into sets, stuff like Double 99 - RIP Groove and so on.

            Can’t remember specific culprits, but they were all at it - Tong, Oakenfold, probably Sasha and Digweed at some point (Digweed was playing Doop around that time, after all).

            Edit: *Really I should be clearer and have written ‘Speed Garage’, obviously it wouldn’t be unusual or particularly bad for a house dj to be dropping Kerri Chandler tracks.

              Digger’s Doop moment has to get an outstanding achievement award, it’s the only one that’s got a consistent mention over the years in this thread that’s been rehashed about 40 times.

                alistair …that was played at Shoom and has featured on loads of Belearic comps, not sure it fits into ‘shocker’ category

                    Garage, it’s where you put the junk you don’t want in your house.

                    LT42 Doop was 1994……Same year as Higher Ground.

                      LT42 …if it had just happened live it’d have been forgotten, but immortalised on the JDJ comp!

                        Not sure I have ever heard it… is it some remix or some sort or was he actually just playing the pop record?

                        Unbroken1 sure but someone took the risk and played it first. Harvey is a risk taking dj hence the plethora of examples quoted. Pity more don’t show the same open mind.

                            Dan …dubious records that became balearic ‘classics’ is another thread altogether

                                Alistair will post Then Jericho in 3,2…….

                                  That Samim Heater track with the accordions was a pearler from the mnml years. Gypo haus was thankfully short lived.

                                    Dan a man after my own heart. Harvey > Dixon all day long.
                                    Actually one of the few DJs my wife would come out of clubbing retirement to see

                                      Oh my days, what a hideous track that was.

                                      Appalling.

                                        alistair Good one, ali. You sure told me. I’ll never recover from this.

                                          Lol. Harvey dropping his Heart FM playlist minidisc into the player and walking off stage to glitter bombs.
