[QUOTE=D.Williams;1227679]Top bunker sets? I have actually not listened to any if them, and want to start going through them :)[/QUOTE] Bunker 3 & 5 have been my favourites so far. I've been waking up at 6am each Sunday to watch the streams, but am only up to session 7 in re-listening.

It's wonderful we can keep these for good as well.

[QUOTE=sbando;1227686]Oh, by the way. This is what MixCloud actually "pays" to producers for Bunker 16:

I guess it's better than nothing. I keep saying though that Mixcloud's biggest issue is audio quality. They re-encode and cut anything above 16kHz, even on the paid plans.

It's crazy that the free Facebook high-res stream sounds better...

#1797732Post 44 of 72

Re: John Digweed - Bunker Session #16 (27-06-20)

The issue I see is that Mixcloud takes most of the producers' money, not that 6 producers get paid.

[QUOTE]“Looking forward to this weekend. Going to be a sore spot for some, but looking forward to Digweed playing a festival set rather than his bunker sets which have become boring. Last couple of weeks especially Sasha has clearly outdone himself as being the #1. Now to have them playing festival sets is just what is needed!” [/QUOTE]

No he is just taking a week off, he has another stream he is doing this Saturday, and he is trying to oraganize all his vinyl records so his bunker is a mess LOL

Number 17 will happen the following Saturday July 11.

[QUOTE=lord lucan;1227611]That's the first one i've turned off. Got 80 odd mins in and that was plenty. Average tunage that wasn't going anywhere.[/QUOTE]

Losing patience in your old age Derms. Jodi Barr rmx is great, he has two on the ep but is 28/8 release date, so still a wait. The James Welsh remixes for that label a couple of months ago were great.

Thought you'd have liked the new Avery ? New Seinfeld remix is great too, been playing that a lot.

No just got bored of it. I'm done to death with "rave days' being revisited too. As usual the arse has to get kicked out of it for it to end though.

'Its my interpretation of the sound because i wasn't born at the time'. What? Along with 50 other cunts doing the same thing? Here's an idea, fuck off and write something new, its already been done.

If you're referring to Ejeca's nonsense then yeh. There's about 100 tracks from the day that sound exactly the same. And yeh its dreadful. Drum rolls an all. He's just stolen songs and rearranged them.

Though the interface has greatly improved, the sound quality is fucking shit house. I asked Anthony Pappa to upload one of his mixes to Soundcloud once, he felt the Mixcloud version was top quality.. it's horrendous.

It's a real shame some of the artists are exclusively starting to upload to Mixcloud, Guy J for instance. I'd have no issue paying for the service, if they fixed the sound.

Oh exactly this, except I download in FLAC. They charge an extra £1 for every single track. Whilst Juno charge a bit more per track for the better sound quality, they still cap albums at around £12.99 to £14.99 which is perfectly acceptable. Beatport don't give a shit. The Digweed Live In albums - if you want the whole album in digital, including the unmixed tracks, work out at around £50 - £75 a pop. It's utterly outrageous when they have zero pressing, booklet and mailing costs involved. Would happily see them go out of business. There are far better digital stores out there who would fill the vacuum.

So f*** them and their "exclusives". I'll wait the extra few weeks and buy anything I want from Juno or Bandcamp. Juno's customer service is way better than Beatport's too. When I used to buy from them and had issues they really couldn't have cared less. Juno sort stuff out straight away. And they still send stuff next day delivery if you buy vinyl from them. All round better service and care across the company.

Re: John Digweed - Bunker Session #16 (27-06-20)

Personally glad of the week break for the Bunkers. Much as I love them, got a busy day today so don't have to worry about getting everything done so I can have the evening free for listening live!

#1797974Post 69 of 72

Re: John Digweed - Bunker Session #16 (27-06-20)

Boomkat is usually the best value of all the digital sites - £1.10 per WAV incl. VAT and full releases are discounted.

Bandcamp prices can be excellent (latest bedrock is £2 for all 3 x tracks) or really high (some labels charge £2 a track). They really need to improve their site as it's ridiculous you can't have a basket / hold bin and select which track you checkout from there given you can't pay in one go if you've picked from different labels. They also need to improve the navigation - Beatport is easy to hunt for music on, even if you end up buying elsewhere.

#1798003Post 70 of 72

Re: John Digweed - Bunker Session #16 (27-06-20)

Thanks Simon - will check out Boomkat. And you're right about Bandcamp - definite room for improvement, and whilst buying Bedrock stuff there definitely works out cheaper, LNOE (for example) works out more expensive once they add VAT on. So still buy their stuff via Juno rather than Bandcamp.

Found so much good stuff on Bandcamp that isn't on the regular download sites, so still fills a purpose. Unearthing those gems is sometimes a problem though!

Plus side of BC = Just bought an exclusive from Joy Orbison supporting their local food bank.

[URL="https://tossportal.bandcamp.com/track/gr-etiquette-09-mix"]GR Etiquette (09 mix) | TOSS PORTAL[/URL]

The negative is I just had to dump and re-add some tracks I may buy, but am undecided on .. BC won't let me select which track I can checkout even though all have to be paid separately.
