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)

Over to you…

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

    mono-stereo is that aimed at me? Perhaps you can tell me what’s wrong with the actual content?

        Ban request for PDJ

        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 Nah, not aimed at anyone.

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

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

              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.

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

                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.

                  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.

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

                      Gaetan Schurer did NE1 iirc.

                      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.

                      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.

                        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

                        • PDJ replied to this.

                            Oddly, I find a lot of Sasha mixes to be better on later listens. I don’t really care for them at the time but they end up aging quite well.

                              jonattonyeah that amnesia set falls perfectly into that bracket. Can’t really remember it first time around but really enjoyed it

                                Anjunadeep 1 and 2
                                James Lavelle GU Naples

                                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.

                                  Not as listenable at other times that 007 and certainly hasn’t aged as well.

                                  Never understood the hate Paolo Mojo’s Balance got. I’ll Be Your Friend into The Sky Was Pink on CD2 is one of the best transitions on a mix CD ever.

                                    Homegrove whatever happened to Paolo and Desyn? They were the future once. Desyn was particularly good.

                                        alistair Desyn burned out, last I saw Paolo he was doing gear reviews for Digital DJ Tips. The London crew here will know better.

                                            I thought Paulo’s Balance was excellent (runs for cover).

                                            Dan that is a vicious smear by Rick Smith and completely unfounded. Besides, I saw him doing mixing in his mom’s shed in Getting Away With It.

                                              Dan the deeper substance nights by Demi were also decent

                                                  Excellent and underrated mix this. Mayer can do no wrong in my eyes. Track selection, flow etc
