Finished this yesterday and enjoyed. Liked the doff of the cap to Sinca’s Bedrock set with Superflu into Maori in the middle. Plenty of recent belters too like Jim RIvers and Spencer Brown. Tea-leafing that Tigerskin track at the beginning too, lovely warm up track! Good stuff @baggers44

    ScottBailey Thanks Scott - very much appreciated. I nick everything tbh lol - sometimes I listen to tracks cold and think err not sure and then you hear them played by someone else and you can hear the quality and possibilities - odd - it’s as if someone else’s judgment is better than mine.
    Then again for the 20 odd years I have been listening to Transitions/kiss mixes I have come to realize that the pros have to sift through thousands of tracks to mine the gems and sometimes it is easier to cherry pick from the sifted jewels than go down the mines myself. the best ones are when you randomly come across something that speaks to you from trawling Spotify playlists or the bandcamp feed. But I would have to spend about an hour a day just keeping up with that ! Also sometimes I listen to Giles Peterson and get my mind blown by the range of amazing music he alights upon - tbh sometimes I don’t listen to him because I know it would send me off down rabbit holes I have no time to disappear down.

      baggers44 I was well impressed by Sinca

      Same. I’ve listened to a couple of other sets since and that Bedrock one was by far her best one (to my ears). Think she’s got music out on Anjuna so her style in general seems more geared to that label, which is not really my bag. But she definitely beefed up her sound for that Bedrock set which was cool to hear.

      This is my problem 😩

        Nice one mate. My flight home sorted 👌

        RichM cheer mate I’m going thru the old records and unearthing a few gems amongst the dross. I seem to have about 40 records on Plastica/Plastic Fantastic - many tribal and some not great - far too many on Junior - I’ll keep dropping the odd one in!

            Finally got to this, sorry for the delay, had a few spare hours this morning for a change.

            Really enjoyed. Has a good ebb and flow and plenty of variety of tunes, and mixes, which I think make a long mix like this interesting.

            I like the cut of your jib baggers44 , feels like you’re more arsed about playing good tunes than perfect transitions or a ‘journey’ (though both are still in there!).

            That Polar Trawler ep had your name all over it ☺️

            • Dan replied to this.

              Mad_Cyril It’s great having amazing transitions, but if both tracks are naff it means bugger all.

                Dan
                Exactly.

                There’s a ‘seamless’ transition
                There’s a transition that ‘amplifies’ the mix between two records
                And an ‘A to B’ transition that lets the records speak for themselves

                I think Baggers judges which to use when perfectly.
