jonattonyeah i just can’t get into it. If there is one style I absolutely hate it is the ny, long island, whatever house. Just atrocious.
Disc 2s of Superior Quality
Fair. I used to hate it but warmed up in recent years.
jonattonyeah
You hear me girl
jonattonyeah Get your hands off my man!
LT42 Nothing wrong with 006 disk one, it’s more than decent, perfectly mixed flows well… but, with 006 disk two you’re hearing something genuinely unique… John at the height of his powers, playing his toughest as fuck stuff, not for the faint hearted, flowing like each track was written for the next, and in a vintage year before the internet ruined everything… the stuff on disk two is proto vortex, proto muscular, fluxing in some ethereal doorway between the panel beaters from Prague and the dayglow kids of Sheffield. It makes my balls tighten.
Plus, it genuinely represents what the he sounded like at that time, I’m not sure all GU defo did that? Saw a lot of John around 98, and it was with the disk two stuff that he was fucking clobbering dancefloors. If you’d seen him play a set of that stuff, you’d still be cunting on about it now, as I am. Tops off? you’d fuckin skin yourself and swing from Ed’s neck.
If you like the stuff from the late 90s, or if the Sasha set from The Bomb does anything for you, I’d urge you to give it more than a couple of listens, it’s fuckin sublime and on par with anything from those years. Hard, driving, epic, ethereal, boom boom woosh!

Fucking hell Amps is relentless about GU006, it’s alright mate we get it.
It was our warm-up CD for about six months before hitting GK around 1999*, it took an absolute battering. For that reason, it has absolute classic status for me.

Now, it’s so full on I can’t listen to it.

If memory serves me correctly, that’s the mix where he fucks up a couple of the mixes on one of the disks? Proper wellies in the washing machine? Clearly didn’t give enough of a fuck to have another go. Amazing in hindsight. Some bangers on there though.
Warren’s Brazil and Budapest are insane in retrospect. You think Jeff Mills is cement mixer? Check those out and think again.
zackster I always loved the rumor that he had a shower built off to the side of the dj booth in Arc, so that he could bathe during his 18 hour marathon sets.
To be fair, this is the kind of shit I would do if I was a famous dj but on the wrong side of 35, as I am now.
A decent shower twice a day is massively underappreciated. Especially by the French.
To sum up, GU13 CD1 is the daddy of all mixes.
Thank you and goodnight.
Athens is the best GU by the way.
Pff thats not even Tenaglia’s best GU.
Amps and Hugo make a great tag team.
A lol for Dave.
And Dom Phillips!
A mix for when you have access to Mitsi Turbos on a regular basis, that one.
Nowadays, I’m more into drinking the old Measles, Mumps and Rubella.
It’s decent here at the moment, no Miley whatsoever, I can go out and have a load of MMRs, then pour myself into a Kevin Sheedy/Cheryl Tweedy.
This switch into Breeder - The Chain. This is the way.
Scenario: -
You’re given Oakenfold #007 CD2 and Digweed #006 CD2. Only one can be played. Which one is going in the deck?
#007 CD2 here.
007 big time!
You’re both ill.
SM001 or you’re in denial?
- Edited
Oakenfold doing drum and bass. Legit. The trance is good though
mono-stereo My least favourite transition on the whole mix 
Literally sounds like something I’d have done in the first couple of years I was DJing…
ScottBailey its a tough one as private production sex drive is one of my favourite tunes. however I would have to go with digweed 006 cd2 due to a even stronger hatred for bbe deeper love as the final tune
ScottBailey Oakenfold def.
Was told by someone at the time that Oakey had done such an atrocious job of mixing they got an engineer to just piece the tracks together themselves, but no idea how actually true that is.

Oakey’s mixing was atrocious, you can hear it week in week out on his year long Essential Mix world tour about a year later.
Oakey got such adulation for having a box full of all the best records before pretty much anyone else did. And dropping them in Cream at the height of the Mitsi.
There is drum and bass on 007?
