Re: REVIEW: John Digweed @ Vagabond WMC 2008

from S&D's official biographer's blogsite -

referring to John Digweed's Saturday performance that you experienced...

"Perhaps because he wasn't happy with his performance Thursday (at Mansion with Sasha), he pummelled the stunned crowd for four and a half hours leaving more than one hardcore fan screaming that this was the best Digweed set ever. Hyberbole aside, by the time he closed with the new Soulwax remix of "You Can't Always Get What You Want"

[QUOTE=Jibgolly;584440]anyway, mike you were one hell of a party pal. MJ is the only one who compares but he needed actual sleep so you may have him beat by a slight marker. [/QUOTE]

:Rolling: Cheeky fucker, if my memory serves me right - and I have many a witness to back up my case - I was the one who was out every single night I was there. You however, stopped in one night because you couldn't handle it! Correct? Don't listen to him Mr Poto, he's all mouth and knickers. :lol:

[QUOTE=Jibgolly;585452]you guys were awesome club partners. and kim, well no words can explain her coolness. the only thing missing was MJ:([/QUOTE]

Re: REVIEW: John Digweed @ Vagabond WMC 2008

lmao mike. only reason i slept was so i'd have a clear head the next morning where i was scheduled to play at steve grahams party. a lot of good it did me, i overslept and never dropped off the mixer as i had promised to. i shoulda went out afterall. so in essence jib got owned!

i was just watching these videos they were posted on the bedrock forum..i was watching the gridlock video and at about 1:17 theres a bright flash. and was thinking holy shit i think that was the back of jib's head..:mrgreen:

all i have to say is i have gridlock and what diggers did to that track is fucking ridiculous:HolyFuck:

#1000325Post 220 of 247

Re: REVIEW: John Digweed @ Vagabond WMC 2008

diggers didn't "do" anything to the track besides play a remix of it, no? or did i miss something? this that dubfire remix?

the version i have is Digweed and Muir's Stereo Club Mix. from the video sounds just like it. except the breakdown is totally tweaked..

Re: REVIEW: John Digweed @ Vagabond WMC 2008

i can't remember the last time any of us posted for page upon page our diss's on butane's, or ffar's, or zeps, or smack griddles, or clap doctors, or H-Injectors.

yet a couple threads on how happy a dj makes us irritates this guy to no end.

#1000331Post 224 of 247

Re: REVIEW: John Digweed @ Vagabond WMC 2008

since i'm not familiar with it, i was just wondering if he did something to it or if if it was the dubfire mix dude. hence the question marks. chillax n stuff. i'm actually going to see the him dj monday, so...um, yeah. didn't mean to touch your brown spot.

#1000334Post 225 of 247

Re: REVIEW: John Digweed @ Vagabond WMC 2008

my brown spot is irritable, and you should know this.

#1000335Post 226 of 247

Re: REVIEW: John Digweed @ Vagabond WMC 2008

probably not as irritable as digweeds after your email barrage. ;)

honestly i dont know if its the dub firemix as i havent heard or seen that version. like i said the only thing i can really tell a difference in is the breakdown. but if it is a different version. i sure as hell want that one..

to me it sounds like he layered a phaser over a delay during the breakdown. though of course i could be wrong..:roll:

#1001748Post 230 of 247

Re: REVIEW: John Digweed @ Vagabond WMC 2008

Shit, I'm such a neub at this. Just finally found this thread. I posted my little review in the Sat. WMC forum...in the event thread..wondering why no one else posted anything. 8-/

This was definitely the best set I've ever heard in my life.

I'm a HUUGGE Hernan fan, and he was the reason we even went to this show. If he wasn't on the bill, we probably would've went to the HOPE Recordings party. But damn, this night was ALL Digweed. Incredible from start to finish. One BOMB after another. No mediocre tracks, just incredible mind-blowing, progressive bliss!

I'm pretty new to EDM, only maybe four or five years worth. My cousin who got me into the scene was there as well. Its almost mid-April now, and every time we phone each other, were still in disbelief about this party. He's been going to WMC every year since I think 1993 or 1994, and he's telling me he can't remember a night as good as this, musically, at least...minus some Danny Howells event some years ago.

Makes me feel [I]really[/I] lucky I got in on this. I'll never forget it.

BTW, jay, mail me those pics. 8)

Re: REVIEW: John Digweed @ Vagabond WMC 2008

so today I read this on facebook

"John Digweed : Tune into Transitions this weekend for 2 hours recorded live from my Miami WMC gig at the Vagabond"

Omg as I write this I'm shivering , I was there that night , and was really disappointed that john pulled an April fools joke to us for that set .

Now it's alive , I can't fucking believe it.

Tune in this weekend :twisted:

Re: REVIEW: John Digweed @ Vagabond WMC 2008

But the one he´s playing on his show this week is from 2009, not 2008, right?

its gotta be an error with the flyer...he isn't gonna post a 2008 mix now. i'm sure its '09. i bugged him about recording it 2 nights prior...

#1240657Post 239 of 247

Re: REVIEW: John Digweed @ Vagabond WMC 2008

There's a tracklist begun on tranceaddict, and the IDs seem to suggest it was from 2009; a few of the Matter tunes are included in the set. John must have erred in posting the flyer ;)

#1240689Post 240 of 247

Re: REVIEW: John Digweed @ Vagabond WMC 2008

The flyer John posted on Twitter is different : [url]http://twitpic.com/968ph[/url]

So yeah it seems like he fucked up on FB.
