Re: John Digweed - Live in Cordoba

Maybe he should just set aside some time and release a proper 2 or 3 CD studio mix. Those seldom disappoint. A new Renaissance or Transitions or even Balance from him would be stellar.

Re: John Digweed - Live in Cordoba

^^^all great ideas, i just wish there was someway he would be able to release the real stuff on a live cd for purchase. copyright nonsense baffles me.

to tell u guys the truth, after listening to the mini mix i knew i wasn't gonna buy this.

he does still often have great releases on his label though, [url="http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/djdb.php?id=94"]guy j[/url] elements was just phenomenal, and i loved all his structures

Just read this bit..... I haven't heard a Sasha set in ages..... would be interested in knowing which quality set he has released recently??

Re: John Digweed - Live in Cordoba

nothing lately but in the past years he has released tons. most available off his website.

Re: John Digweed - Live in Cordoba

C'mon ... Diggers has shared music 52 weeks a year for the past 12 years. Naturally he's got a right to decide what he releases and to have the level of control he desires.

The CD marketplace has changed ... he's consolidated his label and this benefits the artists/producers involved .. and the label which flourishes.

Also, while some people like things pumped up & banging ... will the non [ms] crowd appreciate this ?

Fact is, its one thing being in a club after a few drinks (or more) and a set it built to destroy mode with you're going nuts .... it's a far more different situation at home putting a CD on at home in the afternoon.

in 2010 he gave us MOS and fabric, in 2011 womb & panorama bar.... 3-4 hrs each set in hq. quality over quantity, besides i much prefer these sets than a weekly radioshow ;)

Re: John Digweed - Live in Cordoba

^^my thoughts exactly.

Re: John Digweed - Live in Cordoba

As the others said..Cordoba set is nothing special..tbh the last time when i was really excited about Digweed's mixed set was the Essential Mix in 2010. Even his 3 hours and a half live set here in Sofia last year was ''hit or mess'' (some great tracks followed by some strange not [URL="http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/djdb.php?id=368"]worthy[/URL] to be remembered tunes) The whole releasing a live set as a mixed compilation idea is WRONG...Studio mix by Diggers is how it should be...At the end of the day John Digweed is still one of my biggest favs and i am 100% sure he will continue to deliver quality and nothing but quality..

Shrug, we did talk about Digweed's hair a fair bit. And Hawtin's. And Howells'. All in good fun.

Re: John Digweed - Live in Cordoba

I had trouble wrapping my head around this myself at first. Then I found time to listen to it from start to finish on a car drive.

Too bad that not many people have 2,5 hours in their day to listen to something from start to finish these days.

heard it while i took a 1 hour bus ride and walked around town the entire day ... still think that its too much of a cock tease ... like someone had said its ok if its something that he releases on Transitions but for something that people pas for i guess everyone wants it to be Destroy-hour on CD2 rather a few strokes and yanks on the dick without getting the job done

Re: John Digweed - Live in Cordoba

Lot of gay analogies in this thread.

Thanks for the info, will need to look these up. Can't say that I'd prefer these over a weekly radio show as diggers and guests have produced some gems over the years, that I wouldn't trade for the world. :)

As much as I love the chugging, banging, vortex, mind numbing, destroy mode sets, couldn't agree with you more here Simon!

Re: John Digweed - Live in Cordoba

Bottomline, Digweed is a great DJ and we've all come to expect more from him, hence the reactions in this thread. It's not a knock on Digweed but crazy fans tend to be more demanding.

Should I go see him in Vegas for the daisy thing ? Bunch of friends are going to it,, I looked at the line up and it seems good, but I am worried about the venue for his show..

Re: John Digweed - Live in Cordoba

Has Digweed done a proper mix CD since Transitions 4? I haven't taken much notice, where all the recent mixes Label mixes and Live mixes?

Re: John Digweed - Live in Cordoba

structures 1 cd2 was really good to me...

Bedrock 10 was mixed (using Bedrock remixes from back catalogue) Bedrock 11 was exclusive tracks that John collected and signed to Bedrock/put in the mixes Structures was similar to 11 .. but on a higher level (great package incl. a DVD) Structures 2 was a mixed downtempo CD with speacillay commissioned ambient remixes (plus live CD) Cordoba = 2 x live CDs incl. tracks from other labels.
