It’s worth listening to some of Sasha’s Gatecrasher sets actually, everything is pitched up to the max.

Just sounds weird tbh.

    bosstrabs i remember one essential mix with pushing to hard and angry skies playing at 140 bpms. Think it was from gatecrasher. Shoulda stuck with that imo.

      I am detecting a hint of cynicism, Zachary.

        -si- no no I’ve always been a fan of the faster stuff. Main reason I turned my back on the whole prog crew was that they started pitching everything down to 125 range. That and the whole electro clash thing.

            zackster that Nukem Chab track I just posted is one I heard him play at Crasher. I remember his sets seeming harder (and faster).

              There was one where he opened with Scorchio and just went ham from there. Humate. Junkie XL. Fortress. It’s ridiculously fast but an absolute blast throughout. It’s among my favorite live essential mixes ever.

                Global Summer Soundsystem I think…absolutely full pelt for about an hour, loved it

                  Wish I had..sounded ace. Yeah, teased it for ages with the dub then played main version. Blammo!

                  Boss.

                  The mix from that into Tattabox Inhibitors is top drawer stuff. Fuck it, the whole thing is great.

                  EDIT proper jealous of those of you who were there. My head might’ve exploded when the kick drops after the “Bon Voyage” breakdown. Sasha really went all in with that hour. All in.

                      Everything they did back then was great. As Jamez, Transcetters, Jark Prongo, Basco, Tomba Vira…whatever. And didn’t really sound like much else. “Movin’ Through Your System” really shouldn’t work. The sample is weird. The synth is too loud. The drums are hectic. But it’s just bang on perfect.

                      Speaking of, there’s track Sasha used to play (and I heard DJ Dan play so it wasn’t exclusive and was making the rounds) around 2000 that has the repetitive sample of “don’t stop, don’t stop” or something like that. Never ID’d. Sounds like Prongo/Pssst or the like. Any ideas?

                      Here at the two hour five minute mark.

                          bosstrabs It’s all about the Slacker remix as well you know, muscular royalty.

                            Phil-McRackin Gotcha.

                            Can anyone provide a link to said mix? Is it in here already and I’ve missed it? Can someone wipe my arse for me too?
