  • New Live In Stereo Montreal from Digweed.

I enjoyed it a hell of a lot, but due to the nature of the set (way longer than the released 6 hours) it lacked big moments. So it made me wonder how much of an audience is there for these kinds of things anymore, with the current culture of short big moments in social media that influences experiences in real life, and is that why he’s said this is the last one.

Anyway, I love listening to these long DJ sets, and the reason I release my long home DJ-sets whenever I play them is that I hope there are sickos like me who still enjoy listening to a DJ set that’s longer than 90 minutes, either at home or when out with headphones.

    Homegrove Naught wrong with a long set, but the quality control needs to be through the roof, and it’s been missing on most of the live in releases. He needs another MMII imo.

        Homegrove i’m of others persuasion on here now that all these long sets are just not viable for listening to properly during a normal day. Unless it’s going to be broken up into parts which really doesn’t serve the mix well, you just get into a state of hearing the first hour, then having to stop/start again until it never gets finished.

            Listening to it today and every second or third track made me want to stop. Good tracks sandwiched between some organic house shite and/or some bland, plodding paint by numbers Jamie Stevens production that sounds like all the rest.

            Exactly.

            Outside a club environment, who has 4 uninterrupted hours to listen to a mix? The whole idea of a mix, to me, is that you listen to it end to end. That’s just not feasible.

            Listening in parts is fucking pointless.

            In a club it’s a totally different matter, for obvious reasons. Is a large reason why I checked out of the Live in… bollovks a long time ago.

            TLDR: You’re wrong @Homegrove 😂

              Must caveat that I actually like your longer mixes too, but rarely get the chance to do them justice.

              Will generally just listen to the first hour. Maybe once a year I’ll get the chance to go end to end

              Think you two need to go see a relationship counsellor, neither of you is hearing what the other is saying 😂

                Mad_Cyril I though that was what all conversations between Tories sounded like?

                  alistair I know Ed isn’t the sharpest tool in the box but I reckon he already knew that, as it’s called Live in Stereo

                    I refuse to be dragged into the WEEDS. it’s good.

                    I managed about 90 mins of it yesterday. Was alright. I’m sure I will eventually listen to the rest at some stage and as predicted not listen again.

                      He’s already put them up on YouTube 😂

                      Think I’ll save the pennies..

                        ScottBailey nice one. I was listening on Apple Music web player yesterday and it’s fucking annoying as you get the slight gap between tracks in the mix.

                          RichM That sums up my experience. It honestly wasn’t great (I’m sure it’s a vastly different experience in a club), there’s no way I’m getting though all of it, and I’m not likely to listen to it again.
