The Omar S one starts off well, but then goes all over the place, and not in a good way. seemed like a very lazily compiled affair.

Am most interested in the Ben Ufo one- I suppose I downloaded the Omar S one on the back of the hyped-up description.
 
Been playing this Dead Man's Chest mix a lot.



01 - Dead Man's Chest - Unnatural Mystic
02 - Machinedrum - Gunshotta
03 - Source Direct - Black Rose
04 - Threshold - Sweat Rice
05 - Basic Influence - Still Waters (Run Deep Mix)
06 - Sully - Flock
07 - LTJ Bukem - Atlantis (I Need You)
>> The Prodigy - We Eat Rhythm
08 - Dead Man's Chest - Revenant
09 - Sully - Crystal Cuts
10 - Dead Man's Chest - Liquid 94
11 - Omni Trio - Renegade Snares (Foul Play remix)

The Ben UFO one as a mix is pretty dour and boring for me TBF. It's a well executed mix for sure and many good tracks in there but 2 hours is just overkill - I can't see myself returning to it throughout the year. It doesn't have that power to resonate that a good hessle audio mix does. I miss the 2012-13 Fabriclive 67 era when he was playing less orthodox House and Techno and playing with a raw UK energy. I'm much more a fan of the Boxed crew but that's more grime. Kinda reflects in the crowds that a lot of UK bass turned house music nights attract as well, boring fashion conscious middle-class university students with little soul or personality - i feel like the UK bass scene fanbase is going in a sasha and Digweed direction - so many people seem to be enamoured with Ben's seemless mixing abilities, rather than the direction that the sound is going. The hessle audio radio shows are still fire though it has to be said.


I like the Nicolas Jaar one but it had to be good with such a fire tracklist. Shame his music is utter tosh.

Steffi and Dixon I'm not really interested in. Can you really listen to more than 2 hours of house and techno at a time unless you're not out clubbing? Really?

A nice little African dancehall mix from a mate of mine. Gets your head a million miles away from grey cold UK

 
listening to this at the moment, live set @ dekmantel from interstellar funk.

never hear of him before, it's a pretty decent selection of retro house, lots of 909 in there and not too fast, around 120bpm, nice and chuggy.

 
any of you guys check the Beats In Space site out?

plenty of good sets by a wide variety of djs/artists.

I'm sorry to be thick but what the hell are those great big things in the middle of the turntables? Are they to stop jumping / to tighten the hole?

so if I wanted to listen to one older than the time frame you mention, unless it was somewhere else like SC or MC, then I wouldn't be able to?

think so - there's loads on soundcloud though, so only the forgettable ones sink without trace
 
Hearthis.at haven't come across any big names on there yet but have found some decent DnB mixes, think it's new so will hopefully grow.

Loads of genres but I haven't looked through them as it's mainly DnB I was interested in.

Edit; just checked and it's been around since 2013
