Essential Mixes from the Year 1999 - RANKED

LT42

Dubman Heard him play it at 1015 Folsom in July 99, B2B with Diggers. Incredible set. First time hearing ‘We Are Connected’, the Pappa & Gilbey mix of ‘I Trance You’ and ‘Annihilate’ in that set too. Wild night.

Jon, absolutely stellar work, mate. I do have a soft spot for that Oakie Cuba set though, so take it easy lol

I’m totally chuffed that Millsy’s usual late run for awards season has been scuppered by this exocet missile of a post.

Nice one Jon 👍

Nice work here Jon.

Excellent stuff JTY. Lunatic stuff!

2003 or 2005 next. They both have a lot of decent prog bangers.

It wasn’t actually recorded at Twilo. It was a replication of a set that Digweed did at Twilo. There was an interview with Digweed many years ago about it. It has to be the most misslabeled Essential Mix ever.

Our dude JY is representing the JC brethren in the Progressive House Classics group on FB. A link to this thread on there lol.

Nick Gordon Brown sounds a right hoot…

“I’m all for edgy humour, but making fun of a killer pandemic when we’re in the middle of another one…and when the one you’re joking about took the lives of so many who were central to the scene we all love…joking about a much loved and hugely talented artist who fell to his death…and then making such a flippant comment about Morillo - makes me feel sick tbh, and no amount of gags about Tong’s mixing or Scott Bond’s self promotion can remove the bad taste.”

Nice one Si. Just had a look myself. I feel some new members maybe joining soon.

jonattonyeah great effort and i remember having this EM on repeat - not sure if this has ever been beaten for me in terms of how he builds it.

Also first time I heard Xpander and remember being a bit underwhelmed at the time (so what do I know eh?). Don’t think it was Live from Twilo?

jonattonyeah

Pickles Don’t think it was Live from Twilo?

Yeah somebody corrected me on that earlier in the thread.

Been trying to finish up 2004 for ages. Have the top and the bottom sorted. The middle of the pack is doing my head in.

Mad_Cyril edgy humour

Dubman Nice one Si. Just had a look myself. I feel some new members maybe joining soon.

I hope he gets his tummy rubbed soon.

Not sure I’ll be able to sleep knowing he’s in such distress.

Nick’s missing out.

This is a great thread.

And I’m completely impartial because normally I hate Jonattan Yeah.

Which much loved and hugely talented artist fell? I can’t be arsed reading the thread from the start again?

I actually think Jonattan underrated the Cassius mix, it’s good IMO, but I won’t go into battle for it.

bosstrabs

Fucking hell, I forgot about that.

jonattonyeah

I don’t want to live in a world where we can’t make fun of a much loved and hugely talented artist falling out of a window.

bosstrabs

Basement Jaxx mix hugely underrated too, an absolute banger despite the shoddy mixing.

jonattonyeah

bosstrabs

If I remember right, it was the second half that ruined that mix. The first half was pretty good, sans the mixing like you said.
