INFO On John Digger Digweed's Fabric CD!

This a testimate to the fantastic compilations Craig Richards and the Fabric crew have been putting together, that John Digweed would lend his name and talent to the 20th instalment of the series. Can't wait to hear it.

found this on Toronto's Tribe board

it hightens the anticipation

John Digweed's name is synonymous with lush, deep, engulfing frequencies that move through a mix in waves. 'Fabric 20' is bookended by two records containing them; 16B's kick-free re-work of Pete Moss, and Goldtrix' blissed-out version of Matrix & Danny J. In between, John builds and blends a stunning set, featuring tracks that challenge the preconception of his tastes. Adam Johnson's bass-driven 'Traber' leads into Richard Davis' zany remix of Repair, some classic Rasoul stutterfunk, and Ralph Lawson's disco-tinged take on The Glass. Billy Dalessandro gets heavy and hypnotic; Bobby Peru provides the off-the-wall 'Venom'; Martin Solveig soars; and Freestyleman drags Slam way down deep. Peaking in the perfect matching of Angel Alanis' vicious vocoder and Josh Wink's low-slung Infusion remix, 'Fabric 20' closes out with Michael Mayer firing up Superpitcher's sensual 'Happiness', and Joel Mull's wonderfully weird and wired 'Emico'.

Re: INFO On John Digger Digweed's Fabric CD!

thanks for the crop Barney... The track selection is definitely eclectic, good start to finding the Fabric sound. I look forward to hearing how Digweed goes Fabric-esque. I can think of some people I know who would have scoffed at the idea of Diggers being associated to Fabric at one time. Another sign of quality DJs who can break out of their shells at still blow everyone away.

[quote=windsor1995]why not a double disc? seriously, it's not like it's not going to sell?[/quote]

That's the magic of Digweed, he doesn't need to spread the mix across 2 CD's. Look at MMII, what a killer of a single CD.

Digweed the Best! :RockOn:

Like I said at the Bedrock board, it'll be the 1st time I PASS on a Digger's CD. I hate all of the electro techy stuff that has engulfed dance music. Simply put I didn't like it.

i think it's the first interesting thing he's done in years, aside from the occasional tech laiden kiss mix. To each his own tho.

i don't really think MMII is all that good to be honest. the first couple tracks were great but it loses steam in my opinion.

I just can't get past the sound, I agree with you about it being interesting... God knows I don't expect anyone not to move on and explore different types of music.

I can't wait to get it myself!!!! :RockOn:

Re: INFO On John Digger Digweed's Fabric CD!

Two of the songs were in part one of Howells' Stalker sets...why is he borrowing Danny's records?

Pete Moss - Strive To Live (16b Mix) - Alola Records DJ Rasoul - True Science - DJ Rasoul

1st wish - i want the full 5 hour set.

but since we can't have that, yeah, why not a 2x cd? it's been awhile since i've enjoyed a cd set as much as gu013 and gu019...

ah well... but 14 tracks in one cd... that's unexpected... esp from diggers.

i'd still love to get a hold of a non-stop 8 hour set from digweed or one of those legendary 12-18 hour sets from dannyT.
