[FONT=Century Gothic]another week ... another show ... another batch of fantastic tracks from high end producers.[/FONT]

[IMG]http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=204&pictureid=2946[/IMG]

[FONT=Century Gothic]I was asked recently if I like every recent T show or was just pretending lol .... FFS - for proof of just HOW good Transitions has been simply check out this weeks instalment. In essence, the quality and consistency of these shows is being maintained week in week out.[/FONT]

[FONT=Century Gothic]Seriously if you haven't been checking the [ms] hosted show religiously each Sunday then you're missing out. There is a lot of great music out there whether it's the high profile tracks or ones that only ever cross our radar because we get them [/FONT][FONT=Century Gothic]via JD's show.[/FONT]

[FONT=Century Gothic]Things get of underway with a further sneak preview of Guy J's seriously twisted "Ballroom" (yet to be released on Bedrock) this fantastic remix has a spaced vibe compared to the lethal original. I think Ballroom is going to be big.[/FONT]

[FONT=Century Gothic]The trippiness continues with "Spindizzy" before we hit Tone Depth's fantastic update of his Bedrock classic "Rumblefish" (which was given the Maher Daniel treatment for Bedrock 11). This track has a timeless hook that gives me goose bumps every time I hear it live. A set of 6 mixes Rumblefish remixes are available through Bedrock Digital @ Beatport, including the original that features in John's 2001 Space Lab Yellow set ;)[/FONT]

[FONT=Century Gothic]Things get even better with a remix of WOW's sublime Future Perfect courtesy of this weeks guest and remixer supreme Henry Saiz. This track is a real tour de force and destroying dancefloors worldwide (or at least it did in exotic Newcastle @ Bedrock-Shindig last week).[/FONT]

[FONT=Century Gothic]After the break it's a remix by another of the current Bedrock stable - Barcelona's Marc Marzenit (owner of Paradigma Musik), whose tracks for 11 ("Not Assigned", "Expiritualized" & "Unexpiritualized") received fantastic feedback and praise/plays as well as featuring prominently in Beatports charts. Marc's take on "Neo" certainly doesn't disappoint. [/FONT]

[FONT=Century Gothic]After Lützenkirchen's "Slipknot" the main reason why you should check out this weeks show hops over the horizon.[/FONT]

[IMG]http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=204&pictureid=3209[/IMG]

[FONT=Century Gothic]Folks, we have seen a lot of record labels disappear and fade out of our views, as musical tastes have changed ... so it's nice to have a resurrection of sorts and a pheonix appear from the flames in the form of legendary progressive trance label Platipus who's tracks were played by just about everyone (we're going back to a time when Paul Oakenfold was at the top of his game circ. 1998/9 ... think "Anomaly Calling Your Name" by Libra presents Taylor, "Albion" by Air and Art Of Trance's "Madagascar" to name just three). [/FONT]

[FONT=Century Gothic]Union Jack are Simon Paul Berry (aka Art Of Trance) & Paul Brogden (aka POB) who were associated with Platipus from the start as well as both branching out (POB features on GU013 ibiza and GU014 Hong Kong for starters !). [/FONT]

[FONT=Century Gothic]Not one for overstatement Diggers describes Union Jack's productions as "awesome" ... so you know they'll be good ... but, oh dearly me, these two tracks are IMHO massive (and sounding great live @ Bedrock last week .. although the sound system didn't do them complete justice).[/FONT]

[FONT=Century Gothic]Think deep pounding bass & the type of layered robust driving productions that have been sorely missed for a number of years. Epicly Breeder-esque :shock: ... nuff said.[/FONT]

[FONT=Century Gothic]After the shock and awe of part 1 there's even a stellar guest mix. [/FONT][FONT=Century Gothic]Madrid's Henry Saiz is one of the fastest rising artists in the scene, with his productions and live sets receiving great feedback. [/FONT][FONT=Century Gothic]2007 was a breakthrough year for this young star, taking his live show around Europe whilst his original productions on esteemed Spanish labels Natura Sonoris, Paradigma Musik & Software, were picked up by no less than John Digweed for his compilation: Transitions Vol.4. leading JD to picked Henry Saiz to remix his track ‘Gridlock’. 2009 has seen Henry release his "Madre Noche" EP on Renaissance, as well as adding his remixing alchemy to the likes of Radiohead, Way Out West and Guy J, with Saiz's peerless remix of Lamur perhaps THE track of 2009 ![/FONT]

[FONT=Century Gothic]As always, both sets are available now in the [ms] downloads section [/FONT];)

Re: Transitions (Episode 273) November 22nd

Think I'm gonna go for light blue !

Ended up buying another 11 T-shirt because I really liked it when the T arrived ... still annoyed that I didn't plump for a tangent one (you snooze you lose etc. )

Totally agree, that's the way the BAPE and rare trainer world works too Si. So many things I slept on, only to regret not getting later.

Re: Transitions (Episode 273) November 22nd

Listened to the Saiz mix twice in a row - not really that good IMO. Although there is a great vocal track around the 35 min mark

yeah i like that tune as well

Your Tiny Mind, off Urbantorque.....really like the Saiz mix, and not just because of that monster Stranger to Stability :twisted:

Re: Transitions (Episode 273) November 22nd

The new T-shirts don't really do it for me. But then we were spoilt with the classy Tangent T-Shirt a few months ago. Anything's going to be downhill after that!

#1299407Post 13 of 51

Re: Transitions (Episode 273) November 22nd

Tshirt in grey text looks good, opening track on Digweed's set is wicked.

#1299431Post 14 of 51

Re: Transitions (Episode 273) November 22nd

Loved the Guy J, Way Out West, and Simon & Shaker tracks.

And Papillon ... Oh. My. God. :shock:

Top mix from Saiz.

#1299474Post 17 of 51

Re: Transitions (Episode 273) November 22nd

what's playing at 35min on the saiz mix? the male vocal tune

#1299508Post 18 of 51

Re: Transitions (Episode 273) November 22nd

Just a suggestion: Since all of us enjoy reading these nicely presented threads of transitions' shows, wouldn't it better to have them all gathered under one dedicated sub-thread in GYY or elsewhere?

#1299509Post 19 of 51

Re: Transitions (Episode 273) November 22nd

Nah I prefer it like this, so we have discussion revolving around each show. The Essential Mix monster thread in P&R is like that and it's difficult to talk about one particular mix.

#1299511Post 20 of 51

Re: Transitions (Episode 273) November 22nd

Ok I see your point ...

Maybe a dedicated sub-forum ... like The Digweed,Sasha,Cataneo ones in the P&R section

Each week's show will be a new thread: Tansitions (Episode xxx) Month xx

#1299512Post 21 of 51

Re: Transitions (Episode 273) November 22nd

TBH I think it's fine now ... I wouldn't check out the Kiss sets as much if not for Simon's persuasive copywriting.

Re: Transitions (Episode 273) November 22nd

Far out John's mix this week is incredible! I can't get enough. I'm listening to it for the third time today.

I've really enjoyed the last two weeks excursions into deep house, and now we're dropped squarely in prog territory. I'd love to hear these tracks on a club system. :Yahoo:

#1299581Post 25 of 51

Re: Transitions (Episode 273) November 22nd

[QUOTE=benda;809373] I can't get enough. I'm listening to it for the third time today.[/QUOTE]

I think I've given this a good half-dozen plays.

The Union Jack tracks still get me every time - check out the "Pylon Pigs" album (it came out mid-September).

Digweed is really happy with the positive feedback the past few months' shows have been getting. :)

#1299634Post 29 of 51

Re: Transitions (Episode 273) November 22nd

Haven't gotten around to putting my headphones on this one yet.... reading all this positive feedback is making me crazy though...lol

Thanks for the info Si :)

I well near veered off the road during the breakdown to this one :OhMy:

By the way at the end of the Saiz mix, Diggers announces that next week is Moshic and...........[SIZE="4"]A LIVE DIGGERS MIX FROM GLOBAL GATHERING[/SIZE] :shock: [SIZE="4"]GET IN THERE!!!!!!!!!!!![/SIZE]

#1299657Post 32 of 51

Re: Transitions (Episode 273) November 22nd

^^ nice ... still hoping he produces a Sasha date for Xmas - the Space gig in September would be perfect as Vish knows (or Dan would agree that Air would be nice), although the Beirut show was a highlight of the year for them both and seems most likely.

[QUOTE=funkykarma;809483][SIZE=4]A LIVE DIGGERS MIX FROM GLOBAL GATHERING[/SIZE] :shock: [SIZE=4]GET IN THERE!!!!!!!!!!!![/SIZE][/QUOTE] Yes! That is excellent news :D His EM from there in 2005 is one of my all time faves. Can't wait.

I still need to listen to this week's show. But Papillon sounded excellent at Shindig, as did this other Union Jack production, which hopefully may feature on Digs' show sometime (plus, what a video!): [YOUTUBE]LSiykv2Fci0[/YOUTUBE]

Agree ^^^

Plus the Union Jack tracks are wicked

#1302997Post 38 of 51

Re: Transitions (Episode 273) November 22nd

Only reason the Rumblefish remixes work is because it's nostalgic. As remixes they're just slapping the vocal onto more contemporary beats and basslines.
