Since Live in Fabric is a month away I thought let’s put the poll option in use. I’m also interested to see how the votes go in less than obvious cases, for example my favorite is the very obvious Live in London.
Favorite Live In-CD poll

Went with London too, H. Has just the right amount of filth on it. Also, walking into the main room that night when it was in full flow was epic. No room to swing your baton and dark as fook.
Just as this was playing
I too was there for the Live in London night.
The kitchen sink was being thrown at a rate of knots.
Obviously the early stuff because of the novelty of the series, London is definitely top 3. More of a tech house / house feel to it, compared to full on power prog.
But I’d say my top 2 are all of Montreal, which is beautifully eclectic, and Tokyo for the nostalgic sinister grooves + vortex sound running through the entire mix.
I’ve been listening to London on my work commute this week, and Digweed REALLY liked the ping pong-delay on the DB4 when the mixer was still new.
Smallman1 I can barely listen to it - I had to DJ at a mate’s 40th about 500 metres away that night.
Cordoba is fucking wonderful
No ’they’re the new BSPF, essentially the worst thing John has ever done and they undermine all his other output’ option? Poor show H.
No votes for Montreal? Hmmm my second favorite.
Obvs I was there for london. Albeit briefly abd straight from a wedding so in my suit on my way home.
Had a great chat with nick Muir that night if I recall.
Along_the_Wire Cordoba is fucking wonderful
Agreed. Great mix.
I have to dig that one up, it’s been well over 5 years at least since I last put it on.
Cordoba has a tune called Shiva on it, and it’s an absolute banger.
Remember playing the single at a house party and it going down hard, even with the ladies.
That shiva tune is a banger
London was an absolute belter of a night and is the number 1 for me.

Cordoba is the only one I own so I’ve gone with that
Can’t imagine it going off in Slovenia tbf. London & Montreal most definitely.
rhouses Rodamaal “Insomnia” (Ãme Remix) is a brilliant tune and I always play it out to a great reaction
I think Slovenia and Output are the only 2 I don’t have
Thanks to Dave when I think of Slovenia I think of Zackster.
I bought a couple, they’re in the bin somewhere with Magda’s Balance
Along_the_Wire I need to go back to it. Should load all the 320 copies on my phone.
Out of curiosity I remember asking on here which one was supposedly the most banging, so I could at least give one of them a listen, and Tokyo appeared to be the most suggested. I listened to it and it was dull as dishwater. If that’s the standard then this poll really needs an option for “I’d rather pour burning hot lava in to my ear canal”.
In other words, shut up Rhouses.

I wish my Jimmy Van M balance cd wasn’t a coaster, maybe it was ahead of it’s time. Remember it strewn out of its cover on my bedside table, and straight up thinking IDGAF. It was disappointing and it wasn’t worth the wait. If someone could share the 320 copy of the three discs along with the V2 mix, I’d be happy to be proven wrong. Not on Apple Music.
Jimmy Van M Bedrock is probably my GOAT prog mix that also broke my prog cherry. Nothing comes close to that. So many memories. I was also a huge fan of The Audible Suspects mix with Oliver Lieb on Bedrock which is a proper trip.

Might as well given I haven’t listened to one second of these mixes.
Which Live In is your go-to in the bedroom, Rhousedawg?
Good to know, dawg. I’m guessing the soundtrack nowadays consists of your heavy breathing and the telltale crack of her pelvic girdle under the sheer majesty of you.
