bosstrabs Mixmag was absolute trash as a read but it was good for three things: the club listings at the back, the past month’s Essential Mix tracklistings and the free covermount CDs which went through a sustained spell of being quite brilliant from about 1997 to 2000.

I thought most electronic music mags had club listings at the back?

Also, any CDs in particular? I had a look at discogs and there didn’t seem to be many even listed from that time period, and there wasn’t anything which tempted me enough in that era to make me buy a copy.

    mono-stereo “ ‘Seduction’ is slightly reminiscent of their late 90’s period when they produced ‘Sunshine’ on Intec”

    Even “slightly” is being incredibly generous.

      hugopal Sunshine was a great track….in-tec was on fire then.

      Played “Yimanya” years ago at a Halloween party that was far too big for my DJing abilities.

      Ripped the roof off.

      Rodriguez Jr has been brilliant this year producing and remixing and I reckon this is my favourite of his - absolutely love it.

        alistair I’m working on one over Christmas! I’ve been through the tedious purchase and selection process!

          bosstrabs Props for putting them all in order Dave. I’ll let Hugo pick over the date anomalies from your earlier post <shakes head>

          bosstrabs so when you said “went through a sustained spell of being quite brilliant from about 1997 to 2000.” you actually meant “2000 to 2001”.

          There do seem a few decent mixes in there tbf. I’ve def listened to that Timo Maas one before somewhere, now that you mention it.

          Either I just didn’t notice the decent ones on the shelves at the time - pretty sure I had a DJ Mag subscription around then - or the mag was so shite I still couldn’t bring myself to buy it even with a decent CD. Can’t remember now.

            Sublime mixing on this gem.

            Mustard.
