The Weekly Transitions Thread

Dan

Cankles-McJeggings I still admire his mixing ability….prob the best in the business.

Heno

Dan yeah it’s the Lord John fan brigade it’s a bit much, some of the bunkers were good, seen him at Glastonbury 19 on my the Thursday night and he was excellent but not really into the sound he’s playing, framework etc

alistair

Heno correct if I am wrong, but Digweed hasn’t played Framewerk in any of his recent live sets. He was excellent at Bedrock the other week.

Hursty

Well let’s see what T1000 brings, it was a class night littered with top tunes and quality mixing throughout

Most djs have nauseating fans, look at Dixon

Heno

alistair ah he’s still well capable and all just don’t really like the bedrock stuff the last while.

You’re one of his fan boys though.

alistair

Heno like Dan says, his live mixing is so good, he makes every track sound markedly better than it does separately. Also played his fair share of classics the other week.

Cankles-McJeggings

The bedrock stuff just sounds like cheesy accessible prog to me. I always give the live mixes at least one listen and they all start off ok and descend into racket quite quickly. He never used to be like that. Transitions weeks are hit and miss, can’t please all of the people all of the time but in general it does the same. Starts off well. Each to their own.

IndustryStandard

He knows his market. Hence why his sound is for the South Americans and clattery EDM lite with those wobbly Juno breakdowns etc. Utter tosh IMO but Im not going out clubbing anymore so why try and hone his sound to the likes of me.

His Bunkers were brilliant and I still reckon he should do those types of gigs for the oldies once in a while. I have tickets for the Hackney gig so maybe that will be a bit like the Bunkers

Ditto. But he wouldn’t even tempt me out playing what he does. If he played bunkeresque stuff I’d be definitely having a sniff now and again.

Cankles-McJeggings

IndustryStandard His Bunkers were brilliant

I don’t understand why when he had such amazing feedback on these he hasn’t tried to emulate it in a club. Don’t have to be old to see or appreciate the difference. Basically playing the stuff he likes.

Cankles-McJeggings

Haha this is gold. You’re talking to people like you’re the only person ever to have seen him or privy to this and no one else has noticed. FFS.
He’s been doing this since the early 90s if you hadn’t realised. You haven’t just discovered him.
Next you’ll be telling us Sasha is mixing in key.

Cankles-McJeggings

Dan I listend to one bunker and that was enough for me

Definitely shouldn’t have done that. You missed some pure quality at times.

alistair

Cankles-McJeggings Hardly, first saw Sasha at Up Yer Ronson for the 12 nights of summer. Pity you’re so jaundiced

Dan

alistair First saw Uncle John at Oscars …. Clacton LOL.

It’s not jaundice it’s disappointment and it doesn’t matter how many classics are in there when it’s squashed between tripe.

IndustryStandard

Dan Was that along the sea front upstairs? Went to a NYE gig there in the 90s and someone came in with tear gas ……keep it classy !

Dan

IndustryStandard About right for Clacton!

Wasily

Cankles-McJeggings It’s not jaundice it’s disappointment

Gotta try this at work at least once this week 👍
