Re: Transitions 840 ● John Digweed with a guest mix Chris Fortier

there is a lot of sibilance when Diggers talks, I tried to filter it, but its difficult to cut back without cropping the rest of the dynamic range.

#1802917Post 12 of 61

Re: Transitions 840 ● John Digweed with a guest mix Chris Fortier

this is the best guest mix in a while

^^^ came on to say that!

Comes along outta nowhere after being so quiet and drops a mix like that! I'm blown away, a good reminder of what we're missing these days, I wished these old guard would appear more often, folks like Sean Cusick too.

Re: Transitions 840 ● John Digweed with a guest mix Chris Fortier

I randomly spoke with Sean a few years ago at work, he was at a tech company, no idea if he still DJs

Classic Fortier.

No way, do you know what he does? Always curious what DJs and producers do if they need something else to make a living.

#1802943Post 21 of 61

Re: Transitions 840 ● John Digweed with a guest mix Chris Fortier

i think either product engineering or IT something i was doing an integration with an API and he responded to my support ticket.

luke fair works in software now, too i think

#1802975Post 22 of 61

Re: Transitions 840 ● John Digweed with a guest mix Chris Fortier

Thank you for providing the mix.

That's interesting about Luke Fair. 10 years ago he was DJ'ing all over the world, I wonder why he stopped? Got to be a major culture shift to go from that late night partying life to a more usual '9-5'

He probably found that the gigs dried up and he had to get a job. I recon there are quite a few DJ's out there that only DJ part time these days. This is why I don't agree with the outrage from some DJ's when they are told to retrain into a new career.

#1803002Post 24 of 61

Re: Transitions 840 ● John Digweed with a guest mix Chris Fortier

another possibility is like many people they get bored with 1 thing and move on to something else, no shame in that

John Debo teaches music production at berklee now i believe

#1803031Post 25 of 61

Re: Transitions 840 ● John Digweed with a guest mix Chris Fortier

The Fortier mix is top notch, he always plays tracks I never hear elsewhere and his programming is right up there with the best DJs.

just fortier [URL]https://www.sendspace.com/file/xvondh[/URL] i probably fucked up the quality from the original when i cut out digweed's part

Re: Transitions 840 ● John Digweed with a guest mix Chris Fortier

On another note..I'm looking to start backfilling my Transitions collection. I have ~750 mp3s from way back when the show started on Kiss100 and for many years after (one of my prized mp3 archive collections) but is pretty sparse for the last 5-7 years and would love to find good rips to fill all the gaps.

Problem is trying to find a good archive of stuff and all of these sendspace links are always dead or die quickly, named crappily etc. Anyone know of good torrent sites to get these radio rips? I usually never torrent but wouldn't worry about these since they are radio broadcasts. TALiON releases all of these shows each week directly from the satellite (and LOTS of other great live radio DJ stuff) I just can't find em.

IE the best rip for this episode is likely:

John_Digweed_-_Transitions_840__Incl_Chris_Fortier_Guestmix-SAT-10-04-2020-TALiON

Re: Transitions 840 ● John Digweed with a guest mix Chris Fortier

Also I'm ~35 mins in and this Elephant Dust track by Clarian is fantastic....I love Chris Fortier. I've got about 6 years of being MIA here of catching up to do.

I doubt it's of better quality than the one I posted, which is of higher quality than Mixcloud Select also. And TALiON better make those releases _INT (internal).

Which ones you miss? I got the full archive, which I think it's more accurate than the one [ms] has (at least up to 2011 where the last show on KISS was aired).

#1803067Post 33 of 61

Re: Transitions 840 ● John Digweed with a guest mix Chris Fortier

Man my archive is a bit of a mess but I know I'm missing a ton of transitions over the last 5-6 years, I could post up a list.

I'd love if someone just has all of that in an s3 bucket I'd love to just mirror it and would do it from inside the same ec2 region as the bucket so they wouldn't need to pay for any xfer costs either. Or they could turn on requester-pays too.

Re: Transitions 840 ● John Digweed with a guest mix Chris Fortier

Is there a tracklist from this show by the way? Some crazy good tunes by Chris Fortier as always.

#1803086Post 35 of 61

Re: Transitions 840 ● John Digweed with a guest mix Chris Fortier

Listened to the Fortier mix 4 times this week, it is tremendous. The best mix I’ve heard in 2020 for sure

#1803090Post 36 of 61

Re: Transitions 840 ● John Digweed with a guest mix Chris Fortier

Please REUP.!!!!!:D

2020 besides Bunkering Out has been a big Fortier year for me as well(when isnt)

#1803151Post 37 of 61

Re: Transitions 840 ● John Digweed with a guest mix Chris Fortier

Got a hold of this....Wow! I am a bit partial to Fortier. Been a big kick the last several months of listening to alot of his old promo sets etc. Glad to have a new 2020 set and so far so good.

If you search YouTube for Chris Fortier and filter it for videos posted in the past month, one of the first results is this Transitions show, and the thumbnail for that video has the tracklist on there. However it’s only hour 1 of the Fortier mix

This link worked for me: [url]https://www.sendspace.com/file/wl459d[/url]

Looks like the Talion release and is 116m55s

Re: Transitions 840 ● John Digweed with a guest mix Chris Fortier

Also the best site I've found for tracklistings is mixesdb. They are a bit behind on their most recent Transitions sets though.
