[FONT=Century Gothic]My body and mind have finally recovered from the after effects of the fabric vortex .. so I'm able to cobble together a report of sorts.[/FONT]

[FONT=Century Gothic]Friday it was Sasha and Digweed (1.30 til 5) at Warehouse Project (Manchester) - set on the cavernous arches under a railway station but with a decent set up and better sound than at some of the other Warehouse do's. Having sold our weeks in advance it was warm enough inside for people that had braved the -7° elements.[/FONT]

[FONT=Century Gothic][IMG]http://www.impactnottingham.com/s/one/3798.jpg[/IMG][/FONT]

[FONT=Century Gothic]On before was Jamez Zabiela (11.30 til 1.30) who played a really good set - although he started with the usual high tempo techy wizardry we all expect from Zabs he ended up playing (for him) more downtempo and melodic than usual ... bloody good stuff. He closed and handed over to Diggers with a true touch of genius and one of the top 3 moments of the weekend - bringing the tempo right down with Siopis - Really Love Ya [Get Physical] a lovely touch of deep house with soulful vocals :shock:[/FONT]

[FONT=Century Gothic][IMG]http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3383/3209327846_70cfd0cdee.jpg[/IMG][/FONT]

[FONT=Century Gothic]... complete with "Thank You" and then "Digweed" in big letters on his laptop which he showed to the crowd to great applause.[/FONT]

[FONT=Century Gothic]Taking over the new CDJ2000's John played a killer 1st hour, heads down stuff and really set the mood in the room .. setting things up for Sasha's hour (although someone brought the official timing to 45 minutes with changeovers).[/FONT]

[FONT=Century Gothic][IMG]http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=341&pictureid=3323[/IMG][/FONT]

[FONT=Century Gothic]Sasha, was well on form - more of a mellow eclectic vibe ... opening with a track from Henry Saiz's label Damabiah - Sur Les Genoux d Lautomne [Natura Sonoris] there were then lots of layered chiming guitars - one of his best (cough) hour's this year - we were down the front and really got into what he was playing.[/FONT]

[FONT=Century Gothic][IMG]http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=204&pictureid=3307[/IMG][/FONT]

[FONT=Century Gothic]John then came back on and played til the end @5.00 (so I don't know if Sasha was unwell ... or just had somewhere better or more important to be :lol: ) - but he rocked it, more of a big festival set with the big tunes, working the crowd ... Saiz's Emerald and Future Perfect remixes etc.[/FONT]

[FONT=Century Gothic][IMG]http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=204&pictureid=3308[/IMG][/FONT]

[FONT=Century Gothic]The crowd loved it and time flew by ![/FONT]

[FONT=Century Gothic]... not bad for starters ;)[/FONT]

[FONT=Century Gothic]Then, after 4 hours sleep and a 200+ mile trip it was onto fabric for a marathon event ... Guy J (11 til 2) and Diggers (2 til 8.30 !).[/FONT]

[FONT=Century Gothic]Now it's difficult express just how epic fabric was - after a great set from Guy J - all new and very techy plus some special remixes in there (thought I heard a Burma remix at one point) it was onto the main event.[/FONT]

[FONT=Century Gothic]Just as the year's ending Diggers does it to you .. surpasses everything (no mean feat as the music has been excellent all year) and produces the set of 2009 and a true epic :shock:[/FONT]

[FONT=Century Gothic]John was on things on from the start and never relented ... just building and building, deep heavy basslines, pounding beats at times and some eclectic stuff t'boot ! Bringing together "the very best in electronic music"® by Transitions from tech house to progressive to techno to deep house to just about everything ellectronic, reverberating around the room at times and a state of the art sound system. What more could you want ![/FONT]

[FONT=Century Gothic]A few of my ID's were:[/FONT]

[FONT=Century Gothic]Olag Poliakov - House Of The Sun [Circus Company CCS036][/FONT] [FONT=Century Gothic]Vince Watson - A Very Different World (Funk D'Void Epic remix) :shock:[/FONT] [FONT=Century Gothic]Union Jack - Papillon [Platipus Music PLAT131][/FONT]

[FONT=Century Gothic]Here's a post from the Bedrock board that sums things up nicely:[/FONT]

[FONT=Franklin Gothic Medium]"OMG, that was incredible. I have been saying each time Diggers plays at Fabric that he needs to come on earlier to do his build. So last night was fantastic as the main room was just Guy J and John.[/FONT]

[FONT=Franklin Gothic Medium]I thought Guy J was brilliant. Amazing music and i didn't recognise one track. I definitely he heard a track that john has played a few times now, its definitely changed a bit, perhaps a new edit/remix/work in progress; i assume the original mix is the track he opened Fabric last year with and is the unrecognised id from 10.5. Let's hope its one of his future releases or something like that. Anyway, he built it up veery nicely, wicked baselines and got the crowd going for john to take over.[/FONT]

[FONT=Franklin Gothic Medium]John was absolutely immense, totally blew me away. So love that opening track, when i bought it a couple of weeks ago, i thought that sounded like a "john opener" so you can imagine me hearing that as his first track i was in 7th heaven from the off. An amazing display of music, control and thought it was a sublime build. This is one of the reasons i prefer john coming on earlier, as he can do his thing, get the crowd in his hands and take you on a journey.[/FONT]

[FONT=Franklin Gothic Medium]Those tunes were incredible, some of those one's later on were just an incredible wall of sound. Being in Fabric is such a perfect compliment. I know where i prefer hearing John in London!! [/FONT]

[FONT=Franklin Gothic Medium]I think i recognised about 5 tunes all night. I am certain i heard a new remix of saints and sinners - pushin' too hard. Its absolutely brilliant, that hook, was in my head all night, so pleased to hear that again. I am certain, i thought i heard a beyonce snippet of a vocal behind some hypnotic track. I said to my wife when i got home and it was bugging her that she thought she recognised the vocal. Very clever music, deeply hypnotic and i was in my element. Some of basslines were oscene [IMG]http://www.bedrock.org.uk/socialise/img/smilies/smile.png[/IMG][/FONT]

[FONT=Franklin Gothic Medium]Saw john recording at one point, so expect that will be on his youtube page at some point and probably the next releases - i love the internet allows this. Gets me all excited about the upcoming stuff on the label. [/FONT]

[FONT=Franklin Gothic Medium]John if you read this, thanks for making this my best night out in 2009. This was my NYE as doing family things. Amazing, thank you."[/FONT]

[FONT=Century Gothic]John ended with Local Daddies - Sjeesh (Applescal Remix) .. which is a track I love and had me jumping around like a loon at the end :lol:[/FONT]

[FONT=Century Gothic]One if the best nights ever. My body was killing for days after and my timezones thrown out of sync ... g[/FONT][FONT=Century Gothic]uess that's what the vortex does to you ![/FONT]

Re: V Late report - Sasha & Digweed Warehouse Project & John Digweed @ fabric

Simon ...

you always put together excellent reports mate :D I am glad you had a trully fantastic time and went to both gigs.

I have said it before and I ll say it again ... Fabric is the best venue for Sir John.

Also ... that Local Daddies track is huge indeed. Thanks for pointing how great it is in the [B]2009 Favorites tunes[/B] thread.

Cheers with cold beers

Re: V Late report - Sasha & Digweed Warehouse Project & John Digweed @ fabric

Great review! Makes me sad I missed both of these events though. Papillon must have sounded epic on the Fabbers sound system.

Glad you had a blinder or two.

Re: V Late report - Sasha & Digweed Warehouse Project & John Digweed @ fabric

Well put together chum!! Looks like Digweed was on top form as per all year. He's a fucking legend. End of!!

Re: V Late report - Sasha & Digweed Warehouse Project & John Digweed @ fabric

Great work as always, Simon! So I take it some of the tracks he played at Shindig got the Funktion One treatment they deserved? ;) Hope he airs some of the Fabric set on Transitions sometime!

Re: V Late report - Sasha & Digweed Warehouse Project & John Digweed @ fabric

As I had the privilege to be at both these nights (pretty much building my holiday around these dates) and saw through the carnage to the end with my boy Si (with the pleasure of seeing Domnal for WHP), thought I'd put in my two cents worth:

I have to say that WHP definitely had one of the most communal atmospheres for a club night I've seen so far, perhaps a result of it being up north and my expectations of nights out in UK being somewhat associated with the slightly colder, clique-y crowd of London.....smiling faces all around, constant acknowledgment by the way of head-shakes and knowing nods....Zabs closing out with that Siopsis tune is an enduring memory of my holiday, a very emotional nod to Sasha and John.....despite John's flawless set, the one hour of Sasha stays with me strongly....all in all a great atmosphere and an unforgettable night, but (as Si will testify :lol:) one that really took a toll on me.....upto an hour before Fabric, I was dragging my heels, unable to get up for the big occasion, until of course I walked into Fabric.....the beauty of Guy J's warm-up was in maintaining an underlying melody while staying very dark and techy and he decided to bring it down a notch before Diggers came on with the melancholy of DJ Koze's-Mariposa.....

And when Diggers came on.....well, what can I say? Quality tune after quality tune.....by 4 am he said f*ck it to the tripped-out, heads town techy stuff and went full-tilt, signaling the change of direction with Jamie Mc Hugh-Wrong (Jesus Gonsev remix), those trippy electro vocals reverberating from every head in Fabric spelling out some secret codeword to lose your mind to....his middle hours were quite 'proggy'? for Fabric, and he threw in some older stuff as well such as Christian Smith-Flyertalk.....in the middle of it he would drop in some funkier stuff such as Oxia-Whole Life to keep the crowd jacking.....Also remember he dropped the fourth tune off Arma (King Roc-The Beginning (Jericho Dub)....There's a ghostly female vocal tune he played at both Fabric and WHP which I NEED TO IDENTIFY......he did drop the new Butch tune that Sasha also dropped at WHP with it's teasing breakdown

And then 7 am to 8 30 :shock::shock::shock:......it took me a good few days to actually find words to describe it....and I still feel the less the better.....I'll put up some vids I've taken which might capture it......but this one sensation I had sums it up when I looked around me.....with the smoke drifting through (whatever few) empty spaces and a bunch of lost souls staring at Digweed, he looked like the captain of a spaceship who's orchestrating the music to the end of the world.....and we were only too happy to submit our minds, hearts and souls to this destruction.....evil, dark, sinister, unrelentingly emotional....it in fact left me feeling a little uneasy walking out of Fabric and seeing things intact around me....or perhaps worried that something might go amiss......

With it, the conclusion that Digweed is THE master........

Re: V Late report - Sasha & Digweed Warehouse Project & John Digweed @ fabric

Was indeed a great night. Nice to meet you at last as well Mr R. ;) It was great having John come on at 2 rather than 3:30 like he has been. Normally I get fed up of waiting around for him - then he comes on and does almost nothing for a couple of hours til just gone 5. However, this time he just got right on it. Some lush prog to get us going with some rather delicious melodies and breakdowns and it just kept building from there to some driving techno all the way to 8:30am. I don't think he put a foot wrong the entire time. The man is a machine. I think my only criticism of the night is that the latter stages could have done with a few nice large e moment breakdowns thrown into the mix. I was waiting for a nice big hands in the air/hug everyone moment that never really arrived.

However, it satisfied me nicely. See you all next year! :lol:

Oh and P.S. I WANT that T-Shirt he was wearing at the WHP. :shock:

Tripod 5th February - im expecting a big night from John, last year was very good - hopefully a plays a bit more proggy and a bit less techno - if its as good as Fabric sounds then ill be happy :)

Re: V Late report - Sasha & Digweed Warehouse Project & John Digweed @ fabric

Top Review Simon & Vish, glad you guyz had a good couple of nites. Would have loved to make the 7 hrs flight to witness this but maybe next year, He only seem to get better with age.....

Happy Holiday's :)

Re: V Late report - Sasha & Digweed Warehouse Project & John Digweed @ fabric

Great reviews guys. Fabric was indeed massive! I have to say that Christmas Bedrock parties are always special for me: first because good ol' fabbers is just the right venue to enjoy Diggers'sound (sorry Matter doesn't come close :o:); but also because it's usually less crowded. Digweed was spot on, much better than the last time I sam him in Matter, no dull techno and average mix flow this time. I had a feeling the set he played at Fabric was much lighter than you'd usually expect from The Man, definitely one of the most housey sets I've ever heard from him. I agree it would be cool to hear one or two classics during the peaktime (like PQM last year), still I had an absolute blast and am looking forward fo the next Bedrock night.

Btw that Vince Watson tune is sublime :p

Will see about 11.5 mate, not sure what the future holds but am definitely aiming to make it out for some major gigs in 2010, just haven't planned it out yet.....Berlin sounds wel interesting, would be quite a different vibe I reckon.....

Yeah I do know you like my analogies, especially when they pertain to South American topography :lol::lol:;)

Everyone likes a bit of South American topography ;)

Re: V Late report - Sasha & Digweed Warehouse Project & John Digweed @ fabric

Just ID'd another tune from that night at Fabric, it's the 1st tune on the December 20th show, Diggers played it around 3'ish when I was down in front of the DJ booth, lovely deep, hypnotic vibe with a druggy refrain, fan-f*cking-tastic tune:

Had a blast, great venue (albeit a bit crowded for the missus) with an amazing soundsystem ... nearly shat myself when that unreleased remix v1 by Dubfire (on the Warehouse EM) came on!

Top class music, I also distinctly remember a tune around the 5:00 mark with a deep bassline, an even deeper sub bass and a lush bells-melodie ... any clue on that? (yeah great description, I know)

Re: V Late report - Sasha & Digweed Warehouse Project & John Digweed @ fabric

I know it's quite delayed, but thought I'd put up some vids I took at both nights, here are the WHP ones, Fabric ones in the process of uploading and should be up in a couple of days.....they are especially worth it as I've captured some evil, early morning hysteria :twisted:
