  • Controversial Prog Takes

Pappa’s was prob my fave nubreed as well. Seemed to fit the stripped-back, futuristic vibe of the series’ marketing the most as well.

Howells’ was also very good.

Yep, Pappa and Burridge were the best in my book. Anyone repping Howells is mostly a Bedrock nonce.

Are we completely ignoring the thread title and are now in the GU / GU Nu Breed differential trenches?

I, of course, hope so.

I dunno, but I mainly like it because it’s full of tracks that are not on every other Sasha mix too. He was as bad at playing the same tracks on end for six months in 2000 too.

Its my favourite too..don’t know if he did much tinkering to it but just sounds like a load of great tunes very well put together

bosstrabs not controversial but my retort might be. His best EM was the 95 one. Pure prog. Reminds me of his 12 nights of summer Ronson residency

Yeah, 2000 ‘Sasha comes to play in your kitchen’ mix is mustard. Not controversial.

Remember being really disappointed with Sasha’s 2000 EM at the time as I was still caining my cassette recording of NYE.
Listened back to it so many times since and it’s one of my all time favourites now too.

bosstrabs 27th February 2000 - Sasha’s best Essential Mix

The truth.

I do love Zackster’s attempts at going against the grain in these prog threads.

    Echo no against the grain here. Singapore is my #3 easily. Fantastic mix, both discs.

    bosstrabs Nah, first hour is decent then it goes a bit too much too soon with Dreaming etc.

      Old-Dutch Every time my computer suggests I save 800Mb by deleting this mix or archiving it somewhere, I tell it to fuck off!

      Amps Nah, first hour is decent then it goes a bit too much too soon with Dreaming etc

      Dreadful take.

      Old-Dutch It’s a fuckin good shout, but it’s pipped at the post by his set at the the Bomb in 97, which is the epitome of a Sasha set.

        The last track, never ID’ed, is an absolute behemoth.

          Echo Opening track and closing track both have a bit of a Chemical Brothers sample / loop over them too which isn’t credited.

          Echo recon that is something unreleased on Excession. it’s the right time period and the exact right sound for the label. Probably something by Justin Scott Dixon or The Light.

            Amps

            Dude was probably too batty and/or lazy to bother releasing them. “Oh that track..,yeah I dunno…..why are you asking me at a urinal?”
