Most underrated mix

PDJ

Title says it all… what mix is usually undermined that’s actually brilliant when you listen to it properly?

My choice - Sasha @ Cream Amnesia in 2007.

Before anyone IDs the whole set… particular highlights being:

Kraftwerk intro
Brilliant Ellen Allien remix of Beck
Both Coma & Mongoose
Robytek - Sun
Spara Mig by Ozgur Can
Al Tiga Li Babeten remix - banging foot to the floor record if you’re off your tits
Francesco Pico • All By Yourself (very underrated track that can be an earworm for days)

PDJ Off the top of my head isnt the first track a hot chip remix of Kraftwerk’s Le Forme? as i really liked this mix.

Christian

PDJ going back to the Sasha mix initially posted. Was this the one where there was a part 2 posted by sasha where he plays ladytron for the first time or am I thinking of a completely different mix. Just remember a 3.5 hr amnesia set that was released in two different parts

Said it before but this really was a banger when it came out…

Definition of underrated. Tracklist is perfect. Have had some quality nights to Jon Pleased back in the day.

alistair Nah, not aimed at anyone.

These threads always mutate into people listing their favourite mix, regardless of the original question asked.

Remember the Minimal Era? This was some of the best I could find at the time and I never went out of my way to find DJs playing it. I wish I was in this room when it happened.

alistair

mono-stereo yep, I interpreted the thread as picking enduringly good mixes from dj’s you’’re less likely to expect them from.

Dan

I might still have the C120 chrome cassette which i recorded this on! Great mix.

alistair

I enjoyed this because it evokes so many good memories and is very creative with the source material. Deftly put together too with lots of Trance Wax edits/breaks

Darren Emerson: GU20 Singapore

Always thought this was unfairly maligned. Unlike Sasha, John, ex… it appears that Emerson actually did the programming for this himself, which I nice. The style was unique for GU, at the time. I also liked how disc 1 started banging right from the beginning.

LT42

zackster I hope you’re not claiming Sydney CD1 wasn’t programmed by Digweed. You’re dancing on thin ice with a statement like that sonny jim.

Dan

zackster Little bird told me others do his mixes.

zackster

Pretty sure that Cheeky Paul guy did all of Sasha and John’s mixes. GU, and NE alike.

Amps

zackster Where did you hear such things?

Wally

Gaetan Schurer did NE1 iirc.

Wally

Since Phil K is being mentioned (hope he gets the treatment he needs and pulls through) - I always thought his mix on ‘The Therapy Sessions’ on renaissance was top drawer and should have got more praise.

alistair

Seaman’s Buenos Aires has to be one of the most underrated GU’s. Same applies to his Renaissance Desire. Funny how his GU hasn’t even been mentioned when practically every track is superior to Oakey’s NY. Moreover they are both very listenable.

Seaman Buenos Aires is a great shout. Lifts off from track 4 and keeps on going.
Top muscular prog.
