John Digweed 'Live In' Series - Fabric, London
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
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.
No Bunkers?
Old-Dutch not a single one. i’m writing a lot more than listening these days and a lot of the time i’m listening while looking for inspiration. when people who don’t like electronic music describe it as being boring because it all sounds the same, this mix epitomizes that for me.
to each his own obviously, i think i’m just not into the sound, kind of like that electro phase everyone went through 15 or 16 years ago. i’m sure it’ll come around again, this just ain’t it for me.
-si- Having listened to most of these by now, I absolutely love the first disc or two, which normally have a deeper, housier sound. Uncle John really does pick some cracking house stuff. Once they veer into banging territory the mix tends to lose my interest. Hearing souless tech house/techno lite at 11am on a Wed morning whilst reading about pensions doesn’t quite relate to the ethos of the live in release…
i think this sums up my feelings really well.
The Bunker mixes by and large were absolutely brilliant. Great home listening tackle. Recommended you give them a go
alistair Not yet chief. I’ll give it a proper whirl over the weekend. As @mono-stereo said it’s probably best heard in a club. When you transfer it to home listening it loses something.
Bring back the Protools aided mixes of yesteryear.
3 off the top of my head.
I remember 10 being brilliant but can’t recall what style it was
do i actually have to pay digweed monthly to listen to these bunker mixes or is there an alternative?
