Live from EDC, Las Vegas. 90 minutes, his first in 7 years.

Re: John Digweed Essential Mix June 23 (or technically 24) 2017

Excellent.

Is the essential mix only 90minutes these days, or is it an extended one with another or number of DJ's making up 3, 4 or 5 hours?

Looking forward to this!

Checked out his last one only a few weeks ago......great stuff around Chaim - Love Rehab, and Loco Dice - Definitition :)

Oh.

I guess this is 90 minutes because it was his set length there.

Re: John Digweed Essential Mix June 23 (or technically 24) 2017

Niiiiiiiiice! Saw him at edc a few yrs ago during the day - smaller crowd - commercialized environment - but quality tunes none the less

Re: John Digweed Essential Mix June 23 (or technically 24) 2017

Might be a bit hardcore for an essential mix ?

The year I saw him there he played an amazing short set

A bit yawn, not completely bad.

Re: John Digweed Essential Mix June 23 (or technically 24) 2017

yawn indeed. completely lacking emotional journeys.

So typical John Digweed then. This is why he makes a great duo with Sasha.

Re: John Digweed Essential Mix June 23 (or technically 24) 2017

Listened to the EM 3 times. Not really my cup of tea to be honest. I'm sure it sounded amazing live and at the venue, just hasn't translated to the radio that well. In my humble opinion of course

Re: John Digweed Essential Mix June 23 (or technically 24) 2017

There was a time when you would be anxious at the thought of a Digweed EM. Three beats in, you would be blown away. Those times were called the nineties.

Re: John Digweed Essential Mix June 23 (or technically 24) 2017

one can argue that the music available back then was simply better

Re: John Digweed Essential Mix June 23 (or technically 24) 2017

IMO, your nineties are someone else's 2010´s .. anxious at the thought of a mix and being blown away after three beats were 2000´s for me.. There is a phrase in spanish that goes "todo tiempo pasado fue mejor" which means "all the past time was better" from a "nostalgic" point of view and that applies most likely for everything, music is not an exception.. Just my opinion tho

88-99 stays as the golden age, imho. Two words: Northern Exposure.

So much this.

That said recently saw Dixon and the first hour made me feel like seeing Digweed live for the first time.

Re: John Digweed Essential Mix June 23 (or technically 24) 2017

2001

Re: John Digweed Essential Mix June 23 (or technically 24) 2017

just like digweed said he got "straight to the point" in this mix......hard ass shit!!!

Re: John Digweed Essential Mix June 23 (or technically 24) 2017

The nineties caused a great impact on many of us, . especially for the nostalgic people as me. the Trance before 2000 and the dark after was a great time. I know, time changes, music changes, but, when you hear some shits nowadays, The memories still are there.
