Interview with Sasha & Darren Emerson on the making of Scorchio

Dan

elrobertos Rocky and Diesel have just released a new X-Press 2 album and still gig. We booked Diesel years ago… Top bloke.

elrobertos

Dan They were great DJs when I heard them back then. But I’ll never forgive “Lazy”. Conflicted.

BlainSA

elrobertos How dare you slate a Pete Tong essential new tune… He also recommended this one about the same time

I remember hearing some mixes from djs around then with some West Coast tech house, prog stuff and then they would whack in Lazy. Why… Just why… I never heard it on the dancefloor so maybe something magical happened then and it turned into a dancefloor destroyer. I doubt it.

Dan

BlainSA This and Doop… Which Diggers played to death.

Cankles-McJeggings

Rhouses would have been there ‘rocking it’ to that.

IndustryStandard

zackster No wonder I had about 6% body fat in those days.

Funky

Have to say sasha played a blinder in derry in August, went a lot deeper than I thought he would. The old guys still doing it and out lasting the young ones, seems to be a revival going on at the minute.

Cankles-McJeggings

Diggers MBB was doop. The bald one played it too. His MBB was Alex party - read my lips.
He also destroyed his 94 essential mix with Diddy - Give Me Love .

Dan

Cankles-McJeggings Totally ruins that EM. As does Direct 2 Disc on the unplugged mix.

Millsy

Rhouses and Dave along in a mo to tell us all how great Diddy is.

Cankles-McJeggings

It was vibing in that room when tongy dropped it.

Christian

hated read my lips. worst thing on clevland city apart from tony de bart

Cankles-McJeggings

Aye that’s also completely shite. Que club Sasha played it twice in one night. Slags loved it.

Christian

but is this worse

Cankles-McJeggings

Christian

Who played that? The bald one?

Cankles-McJeggings

Dan Totally ruins that EM. As does Direct 2 Disc on the unplugged mix.

I’ve often considered editing it out. Might do it one day.
Didn’t find D2D that bad. Doesn’t jar as much as diddy. How can you have that track in the middle of that mix? Mind blowing really.

seanc80

I think i like scorchio more now than i did back then.

BlainSA

Same. It’s a top quality production for sure with the usual CM magical layers, but it didn’t quite do it for me at the time. There should’ve been another dub version that draws out the more heads down parts of it.

Christian

Cankles-McJeggings yep 8 mins in on this. sped up to sound like chipmunks rather than mick

Dan

Cankles-McJeggings Mates at Positiva?

Cankles-McJeggings

Probably. Reg central.
