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

Homegrove Don’t blame this on Digweed

Any chance I can just buy a mix digitally and listen to it without it being like a fucking rubix cube. There’s no need to be so defensive of him either, its a dig at the state of the market more than anything. Its an absolute shambles. It was the same with Sasha’s Fabric mix. On iTunes the “mix” had stamps in between the tracks and there was no way around it, maybe its the need to make money off the individual tracks also, I don’t know.

      LT42 on Apple Music, this is a seamless mix. Same on Spotify or whatever? Fine listen it is too

          Homegrove For more money than releasing on Apple could give them? Sure if it’s a depeche mode remix or something. Some obscure group from a niche label ran from someones shed in nowheresville, not so much. You’d think the exposure alone would mean letting it out would be the wise move.

              alistair cant listen to the mix on spotify, just separate unmixed tracks. not sure who wants to listen to them individually

                  Wally fuck knows man, just speculating what could be an actual reason behind it.

                  So Apple Music and Qubiz are the ones with the mixes from the streaming services?

                    It’s mixed on all the streaming platforms. 48 tracks 3 hours 58 mins. So missing 3 tracks. If we all stick together we can get through this tough time.

                      Fuck, noticed the same. So went and bought it from Bandcamp. Hopefully the singles I don’t know are good.

                      Dubmick actually the mixed versions (BP and Bandcamp) come to 4 hours and 51 minutes, so the streaming platforms are missing more than 3 tracks.

                        Have we worked it out yet? Ffs lol

                        Ive got a fantastic idea – buy the CD then there will be no discrepancies

                        Lol, this sounds like an absolutely diabolical shambles!

                        John won’t care less, too busy cruising around the tesco car park in hastings in his fiesta xr2i, gold wheels obviously, blasting seb’s prototype mix out of the slightly lowered tinted wndows. Smoking a blunt. Checking out the local fanny. Singing pearl river and counting the de niro…

                        There are 3 versions of the release

                        CD: Has the full gig, 57 tracks across 4 discs adding up to 4 hours, 53 minutes

                        Bandcamp, Beatport, Traxsource: Has 51 singles, plus the 4 continuous mixes that add up to 4 hours, 53 minutes

                        iTunes. Spotify: Has the mix split up into individual tracks, but only 48 tracks, adding up to 3 hours 52 minutes, so missing 1 hour of the mix.

                          jambo about right, you get some serious jumps when a track has clearly been excised

                            jambo There are 3 versions of the release

                            CD: Has the full gig, 57 tracks across 4 discs adding up to 4 hours, 53 minutes

                            Bandcamp, Beatport, Traxsource: Has 51 singles, plus the 4 continuous mixes that add up to 4 hours, 53 minutes

                            I don’t know if there is this kind of criticism elsewhere but putting this info out beforehand might have spared some grief. Oh well, I doubt none of us is worse of then people in Ukraine. AIFF from Bandcamp playing now, emptied an almost done bottle of Laphroaig in my glass, and will open a 12 year old bottle of Caol Ila after that is done.
