Re: Henry Saiz- Labyrinth 16 Best of 2012

Just finishing this.. Besides a bunch of tracks you possibly won´t find atractive among 4 hours of music, this is a freaking solid mix imo.. Henry has it all to become a legend.. and he will :RockOn:

[QUOTE=AchtungBaby!;1081767]Henry has it all to become a legend.. and he will :RockOn:[/QUOTE]

i remember thinking this about James Holden back in his balance005 days but fell off the train hard. I do think I would like to see Henry take over Bedrock whenever JD wants to retire.

#1673062Post 9 of 71

Re: Henry Saiz- Labyrinth 16 Best of 2012

retire, LOL, they aint that far apart in age. digs will never give that up. he will still be djing in his 60s :)

i thought this mix was somewhat hit and miss in parts.

Re: Henry Saiz- Labyrinth 16 Best of 2012

^^ With a mix this long there is definitely going to be something you, or I , don't like , I think I am lucky that I do like most of what Henry does even back to Tangerine Dream :lol: And we are all bloody lucky that we have this amazing music given to us in best mp3 quality. I'm am very happy today. :RockOn:

BTW Much as I hate to say this James holden is a mere spark compared to Henry's super nova. :lol: Seriously Henry now has years of amazing work behind him, he has earnt the legend status.

there was a head scratcher or two. I think there was an Usher song in there, and not a remix, but the radio version. seemed out of place. i think it makes this more of an annual collection mix, which is what the title implies but was hoping for more of a mix that just happen to incorporate the best tracks of 2012 from his personal collection. (im not sure what i would think if i heard him play that usher song live)

as for the holden comparison, i whole heartedly agree.

i love the mix, with it being 4 hours long, it will have a high replay value for the foreseeable future.

Thats exactly what i thought.. And there are a couple of "similar" stuff which i don´t personally like.. That being said, this is a solid 4 hours comp imo 8)

I like it as a whole ..

#1673093Post 13 of 71

Re: Henry Saiz- Labyrinth 16 Best of 2012

I think maybe 4 hours is a bit long , it's always hard to please everyone and this length just makes it harder. But it's what he thought was the best of 2012 . I like that we get an insight into the artist here. There is some truly amazing music !! :D

#1673095Post 14 of 71

Re: Henry Saiz- Labyrinth 16 Best of 2012

what james holden did will not be forgotten....the guy brought us music that will remain for a looong time even if nothing new comes from him...

i love henry's productions but i still dont have any mixes from him that are as precious as holden's balance or M8 and even some of the live sets...

they shudnt be compared at all, each has his own print

#1673096Post 15 of 71

That pachanga boys?? someone correct my spelling here. :lol: track Time. I have said so many times that I hate it, but heard this is on a couple of well recorded sets lately and I really really get it now !! It's sending shivers up and down my spine as I type.

Saiz is good, but he doesn't have that same kind of creative flare.

#1673112Post 20 of 71

Re: Henry Saiz- Labyrinth 16 Best of 2012

^^I used to follow James Holden . I stopped when he started doing that pixie trance. :lol: To me it was just nonsensical sounds. The one thing I really don't believe anyone can criticise Henry for is lack of creativity. :lol: If anything, he need to tone it down a little :lol: He is so much more substantial than Holden ever was. imho of course.

#1673154Post 21 of 71

Re: Henry Saiz- Labyrinth 16 Best of 2012

so what really happened to Holden, if i was guessing i would say he sorta took the route of Syd.

Some are daring but don't hold a candle to the creativity that can be found in Holden's back catalog (IMHO, etc.) Haven't heard enough compilations (live or otherwise) from Saiz to say one way or the other. The Usher and Beyonce remarks are keeping me from this one, though. ;) I find it strange that you ditched Holden so soon. The pixie movement had arrived as of "Horizons," and James had only released a few productions prior if memory serves (that was his first official single in any case). In the height of that movement when the copycats were at full blast (2004), he furnished that unforgettable carnival techno mix of "The Sky Was Pink." His artist album came as a letdown after all the potential promise, but he has a host of material in remix form and several singles (the last one with Thompson, "Come To Me," was huge). Saiz hasn't left a similar imprint in my mind (at least not yet).

#1673177Post 24 of 71

Re: Henry Saiz- Labyrinth 16 Best of 2012

Holden's pixie trance was still better trance than any of its day and today. Only dropped him with The Idiots.

#1673179Post 25 of 71

Re: Henry Saiz- Labyrinth 16 Best of 2012

^^ Funny, I always saw pixie trance as a derogatory phrase :lol:

I think I just out grew trance. Actually maybe not , I loved JOOF earlier in the year. When I saw Holden first he was prog :lol:

[QUOTE=feather;1081912]Holden's pixie trance was still better trance than any of its day and today. Only dropped him with The Idiots.[/QUOTE] Some of it perhaps, there was some golden material in the progressive realm from the 90s that I liked before he appeared. ;)

^^ All this just shows how differently we all perceive "genres" :lol:

#1673196Post 28 of 71

Re: Henry Saiz- Labyrinth 16 Best of 2012

Personally I dont like his productions that much because he seems to flirt a little bit with some trance related sounds which they dont appeal that much to me. However his dj sets are getting better as times goes bye, but 4 hours is a little too much. Are you suppose to have 4 free hours to listen to this as a whole? In my case it can take me a couple of days to listen to the for 4 hours and pay the proper attention it disserves. Sometimes less is more.

#1673198Post 29 of 71

Re: Henry Saiz- Labyrinth 16 Best of 2012

I have the same problems with the super extended sets, I need the time to hear it properly, but obviously, in special occasions, I make time to listen the whole set.

#1673199Post 30 of 71

Re: Henry Saiz- Labyrinth 16 Best of 2012

I'm lucky, I work for myself, so I can just play music all day. I don't need to find time. I really try to listen to a set in one piece. :)

Re: Henry Saiz- Labyrinth 16 Best of 2012

I agree that this set is a little too long, but appreciate the effort he's gone to for this. Hardly listen to Holden now but one of my favourite all time mixes was his Fear of a Silver Planet back in 2001. Solid tracks.

Re: Henry Saiz- Labyrinth 16 Best of 2012

[COLOR=#f0fff0][FONT=lucida grande]Totally overwhelmed by your super nice words on my Labyrinth "best of 2012" set! :) Specially since i know it´s too long and extremely varied, i love the fact that mostly of you are as musically open minded as i am. Sorry if the most "purist" didnt like tunes like Usher "Climax", etc, but i have my own reasons to add them to my "best of" list and i´d be happy to defend that decision anytime haha :D[/FONT] [FONT=lucida grande]Much love to all of you,[/FONT][/COLOR][COLOR=#333333][FONT=lucida grande]
