all time favourite mix album? what is it? mine would have to be the hacienda one... done in the mid 90's, disk 1 is quality 'proper' house music
even though i'm a trance head, i usuall think i can do better than most trance compilations, so would say: yoda - how to cut and paste 2 soulwax - too many djs
Gatecrasher Wet for the tunes Or Renaissance Mix Collection 1 - Sasha & Digweed or Sasha's Voyage of Ima
The 80's megamix and reggae mix are both good on vol2... Gonna have to go and listen to them both again now!
soulwax - 2many dj's untitled - various (an indie type album out yrs ago with the likes of mock turtles etc on!)
vol 1 has the scratch skits, and thunderbirds but only a couple of really great tunes vol 2 has a-team, 80s megamix (rick astley ), a better reggae mix and loads and loads of class hip hop tunes!the last 2 ones by wo-tang are amazing! although the rhubard tart and if you wanna know the time ask a policeman are a bit too random!
Pete Tong - Twisted Beats is one of my most played and so is Henan Cataneo - South America. My fave though and most played is probs my Number Ones of Dance album its had the most play by a mile and i still listen to it and ive owned it for at least 6 years.
1) definately the first Renaissance... spawned so many classics : 2 Bad Mice, Age of Love, etc... infact - i think i love that album. 2) Perfecto Flouro (1996) with the original version of 'Adagio for strings' (from the 'Platoon' soundtrack anyways) and Bjork. class stuff.
GU darren emerson in singapore is pretty good. as is the deep dish in moscow. but clubbers guide to 2003 part 1, vol 2, 2nd edition, collectors special, limited edition cd runs away with the title (!)
oohhhhhh! cut an paste 2 an too many dj's would also be upthere, but still cannot topple the hacienda 1, probs cos no1 else plays it, so all the tunes haven't been overplayed (as a whole) an it reminds me of 'the good old days'
Moving Shadow 00.1 - Classic breakbeat /drum n bass Deep Dish GU in Moscow Louis Slipperz - £10 Bag DJ Hype - Fabric Live All amazing
GU 13 Sasha Ibiza still the best GU album i think For Memorys Gatecrasher Black and probs Renaissance 1 Sasha & Digweed
GLOBAL UNDERGROUND: Paul Oakenfold - Oslo Its a total classic... even today you can put it on and it sounds brilliant... something which todays "hype" albums could never hope to do.
