  • John Digweed 'Live In' Series - Fabric, London

303abuser Given the only person to rate it (Smallman) freely admits to enjoying Subway meatball sandwiches, I would hardly say it’s received a fair appraisal.

    Done. Had 3 4cl whiskeys, and two beers during, and lost the plot with the TL somewhere in CD 4, but loved it. First listen impression is that it’s the third best in the series after the first London and Montreal. But it’s a Digweed Live In, if you’ve liked the previous ones you will like this one too, if not. Well you won’t like this one either.

    CD 3 was the best one. This might have the best flow in all of his Live Ins. This and Sasha’s Fabric LNOEs (as opposed to his other sets he plays on the show) does make me believe when people say these guys play different in that particular club.

      His latest Transitions mix released today is the opposite of playing at Fabric. Nick and Hernan wishy-washy bollox.

      mono-stereo yeah, i’ve only listened to the first 45 minutes or so too, but it wasn’t good. i’ll try the 2nd part, but my expectations are low.

      Homegrove They certainly play differently in that club. Loved what Sasha was playing at Fabric during his Twilo residency….you had a taste of that tribal/breaks stuff.

      It’s all about that sound system. Seems to bring out the best in them. Hard to capture in a recording.

        Track highlights I didn’t know previously:

        Paul Schmidpeter - Pastel Skies
        Molo - Fleut
        Dino Lenny - I Wanna Go Back (John Digweed & Nick Muir Remix)
        Msafiri Zawose - Karibu Bagamoye (Musumeci Wild Pitch Mix)
        Claydya & Ripperton - Hey Kid (Masaya Mix)

        and

        The last three tracks on the mix.

        So getting the Bandcamp-version was not wasted. Got most of those as singles.

          Listened to the first 45 mins and liked it so far. <shrug>

          I’m sure it was decent if you consumed a numbers beers, tucked into a few liveners and sloped into Farringdon to chug away (get on it and get your head down for 5 hours)
          Sadly paying to hear this blows my mind.

          Yeh it’s ok but a mix CD is a bit odd

          Homegrove I don’t see the Dino Lenny - I wanna go back track on the Bandcamp version? just that torturous Sweet Paranoia track.

          The tracklist mystery continues

          ps: you are right about Molo - Fleut. Class

            maybe i just don’t like what digweed is playing these days, i haven’t listened to a single mix or set since montreal. into the second part and mono - fleut is the only track i can say i even like so far. i thought the first part was terrible, except for maybe the circulation track to open.
