  • Most Enduring Commercial Mix Comps

Oslo was way better.

303abuser i’m going to have to listen to 007 again, i remember it being trash, but it’s been probably 20 years.

Some OK tracks for the time, from what I remember anyway, but just typical Oakey - rushed mixes that are horrifically out of key.

      Dave will love my Nor Way post.

      BANTS!

        I can’t imagine Oakey playing good DnB but I do enjoy it as a style. Being 16 and into club music in america really limits what you can hear live, and for what ever reason Jungle and Gabber were the two styles that did all these all ages out door parties in my area, and I will always have a soft spot for both.

        D’n’B is good for an hour or so.

        No more.

        Not dissing it as a genre Zack.

        But not one you can easily drop into your sets or club nights just because its perceived as cool.

        Its so different to some stuff that you can’t just throw it in there, loses all context.

        Would be like Jeff dropping some S Club 7 mid set

          Mad_Cyril But not one you can easily drop into your sets or club nights just because its perceived as cool.

          This tells me everything I need to know.

          Not a clue.

            With all of the dog shit suggestions, I have to say I am shocked that not a single Digweed mix has come up. Telling.

              Can’t remember the last time I heard a Digweed mix comp tbh.

              CD1 London about 18 months ago perhaps.

                Smallman1 because so few of them still stand up after the first two listens.

                  I actually agree with Mad Cyril here.

                  The ‘electrocuted potatoes’ and then calling Smallman a buffoon have swung me.

                  1. Northern Exposure Sasha and Digweed

                        zackster Just remembered his first tune was this@MOS…..I emailed him and he kindly told me. True story. For that he’s a dude.

                          zackster i included sydney and hong kong, i still think disc 1 of sydney is one of the best mixes i’ve ever heard.

                            Echo that’s exactly what i remember. sounds like it was mixed by someone who just bought tables.

                              Dan That pic is him warming up for U2 I believe

                                  zackster in terms of recent vintages, I really liked Sasha’s Fabric 99, Baumel’s GU and especially Zabiela’s Balance (cd2) which was ace. His transitions are something else

                                      zackster Seeing as we’re now onto any old mix cd, whether it’s dated or not, might as well take it down a peg or two….

                                        Love how this has descended into the usual farce!

                                          When I think of what’s hot in dance right now I think of the Deep Dish Mix of Rapture

                                          Smallman1 It really is something to behold but to be fair most threads turn into “post your favourite GU” by about the 2nd page. Even food threads.
