PeterSpadang Maybe the negative gang reduced my expectations because I’m actually quite liking it. Granted I’m only on disc 1 so maybe it’ll slide down hill soon enough.

But disc 1 does have some decent lower tempo moments. Hell, some of these tunes have a bit of a melody in there too.

Totally agree here, Peter. Its defo not as bas as its made out to be. That Legov remix of Anja Schneider is a great little groover.

There’s defo a case to be made that a lot of people on here are overcooked with the amount of mixes and music they listen to weekly which means a mix has to be out of this world to stand out. I don’t listen to any of John’s apple mixes or his radio show anymore so this sounded great to me. I honestly have no idea what people are looking for anymore.

      LT42 I honestly have no idea what people are looking for anymore.

      Peak time wrecking ball POWER prog for me Liqui.

        LT42 great point. This mix has grown on me a lot since first listen. There is the odd ropey track in there but also some great sections.

          I’ve enjoyed the live Fabric mixes on the past few episodes of Transitions more than this one.
          So IMHO he should have released that instead.

          Thanks.

          I was convinced I had slung my copy of the 2016 Montreal mix, but I have just found it in a box next to South Beach. Both now off to the charity shop.

          Does anyone still listen to any of these Live In mixes?

            Amps I bought the Montreal CD, don’t think I ever got round to listening to it all the way through. It prob went in the bin when I last moved

              Amps I think I’ve listened to them all once maybe? Never been hugely impressed with any of them.

                  Yeah, me too. I’ve bought a few over the years, listened to them a few times, then they just gathered dust. That music may have worked well in the club, but not for home listening.

                      I’ve listened to the first Montreal-mix through several times, all 10+ hours of it.

                        I’ve done the same with many John Talabot 7+ sets. A good build is fantastic for me. At least Digweed gets going three hours in.

                        Homegrove same here, it’s a fantastic set and the best of the Live In series. The first London mix prob 2nd best IMO

                            gcw yeah, feel the same way. The Fabric-one is probably my third favorite, and if I am not mistaken the only one besides Slovenia that’s the whole gig.

                              I was at the night in Fire and it was briliant albeit we were packed into the room like sardines. Listening back on the CD just doesn’t capture it. I’m sure its the same for all the releases. Amarali was great that night too.

                              The Fire night was absolutely fucking class.

                              Defo my favourite Live In mix too

                              Fire 2012 (I was there) and Montreal 2016 (I was not there) are both great mixes

                              Dry-Tinder same here, I bought the first few, then gave up and just streamed the mixes when they landed.

                                I was also at the Fire night.

                                Unbelievable Jeff!

                                I was DJing at a mate’s 40th and missed it. Wasn’t HP, especially when the CD came out.

                                Cordoba and London for me. The rest are shit.
