Arrival: Special Set Opening Tracks

bosstrabs

erik I prefer the 2000 EM to the Maida Vale one

It’s a superior mix, not least due to Dulux Connection’s ’Let’s Beuk!'

erik

bosstrabs the whole flow of the mix is ace.

That Maven based stuff he did was dull as fuck. It all sounded so flat and sterile

Smallman1

I normally open up with this -

Really sets the tone.

Hursty

alistair

Hursty fucking hated the minimal era.

NasserAlazzawi

Hursty that one really works - I’ve tried it at Early Doors Club!

LT42

Hursty Yes, Hursty! Opener to probably Uncle John’s greatest ever live mix. Brilliant track.

We had it on ‘live’ for an afters. Completely fucking trousered, nobody really spoke for the first hour or so.

Bestest mix eva

It’s not every day Sasha comes to play

erik

Mad_Cyril we did the same.

Probably my favourite Sasha mix

erik

alistair Buttrich is a great producer, he was behind the early Timo Maas productions too iirc

But minimal was fucking terrible

Played some dutty shit @ WHP, possibly warming for J Z but cannae really remember exact deets!

Was a good night!

alistair

NasserAlazzawi pre or post the Afro house?

Hursty

LT42 stellar from start to finish, I was there that night, the crowd were on top form

NasserAlazzawi

alistair post mate

Although I selectively choose some sometimes today - it tends to be one or two

I swear I heard digweed playing some in 2022 as well

LT42

bosstrabs I was just using it as the best example I had of the self-indulgent 3 minute intro

I hear ya, nobody does something different though quite like the Sash and thats why this mix is a pearler for me. His 2000 mix isn’t a patch on his 95 mix imo, the one with Dum Dum.

one to bring a tear to your eye

SM001 pretty sure it was 2004 about July- I was having a v strange time in my life and it blew me away that night - made a huge impression.

Were you in Lush, mate? Or at the reciprocal gig in the red box? Was an hour live from each club. With an isdn link to dublin when Emerson was playing from there. And vice versa for sasha in lush.

Fuck me, imagine that for a depressing end to a night.

There you are, enjoying Sasha in his pomp and then suddenly you’re forced to endure Emerson via a ropey ISDN link.

Sounds like the kind of night Smallman would organise if he were a cub promoter.

LT42

-si- Yeah a few of us drove up, Si. Actually, we had a designated driver, a brother of a mate who was a teetotaller. He got paid in hash as far as I remember. He used to drive us all over the gaff, Galway, Cork etc. He’d fall asleep in the car after rolling joints all night for the way home. Great times.

SM001

He does, mate. Binned a load of his vinyl but kept the special and rare records.
