Pancake Posted 6 November, 2008 Posted 6 November, 2008 You view? My personal top 5 would be (in no particular order) Coldcut - 70 Minutes Of Madness The greatest mix of all time? Possibly, and there is never a dull moment. Sasha & Digweed - Northern Exposure The benchmark for all prog-house and trance mixes Pete Tong & Boy George - MoS The Annual II Pure cheese but reminds me of some very good times The Prodigy - The Dirtchamber Sessions Vol 1 Just love the way this sounds. Bentley Rhythm Ace - FSUK Vol 3 Uber-fun that you can play whatever mood you are in. Bubbling Under: GU007 by Paul Oakenfold, GU015 by Darren Emerson, Quannum Breezeblock session and FabricLice01 by James Lavelle.
the stain Posted 6 November, 2008 Posted 6 November, 2008 FabricLice? I had to throw the sofa away. Solid Steel presents DJ Food & DK.
Pancake Posted 6 November, 2008 Author Posted 6 November, 2008 Just had a look on Amazon at that, looks interesting... on your head be it if I dont like it sir!
Sheaf Saint Posted 6 November, 2008 Posted 6 November, 2008 GU013 - Sasha, Ibiza. Truly epic from start to finish. Journeys by DJs - Paul Oakenfold (about 1993/94 I think) The first ever Cream Live CD from around 1995/96 was pretty damn good as well... even though it wasn't actually recorded live.

Rory Posted 6 November, 2008 Posted 6 November, 2008 I like the 2 Many DJs ones. DJ Yoda's are quite good too.
jeff leopard Posted 6 November, 2008 Posted 6 November, 2008 Bentley Rhythm Ace - FSUK Vol 3 Uber-fun that you can play whatever mood you are in. Quannum Breezeblock session Both are very good but a bit ten years ago. It reminds me of all the amazing session MJHobbs had on the breezeblock, norman cook's first set for her sticks in the mind as a true great, i think it was the first time he played his renegade master remix. David Holmes did a couple of great sets for her, much better than any of his officially released cds. 2 Many DJs definitely, if you like that you may want to dabble with Kid 606's 'the f*cking mentalist brings you the jams' which is like 2MDJs but much faster and funnier.Planet_mu did a couple of really good and shockingly cheap mix cds with bucket loads of electronica and jungle. But when push comes to shove, I'd rather have a non-mixed compilation and then make the mix cd myself. Cos lets face it, 99% of dj's are tools.
Pancake Posted 6 November, 2008 Author Posted 6 November, 2008 A bit ten years ago? Man, music is timeless!
CabbageFace Posted 6 November, 2008 Posted 6 November, 2008 Strangley i enjoyed Cut up boys - mash up mix (80's) one. DJ yoda is good. Pop goes punk Punk goes accoustic 1 and 2
Scudamore Posted 6 November, 2008 Posted 6 November, 2008 Nick Warren - Back to Mine Original and best Back to Mine compilation Kruder & Dorfmeister - K& D Sessions Unbelievable stuff Tom Middleton - The Sound of the Cosmos Although any Middleton compilation is always the b::llocks Bryan Gee - Sound of Movement Oh and after hearing about how the Coldcut one was supposed to be the greatest Mix Album of all time i have to say i was greatly disappointed...in fact i'd probably go as far as to say i thought it was sh:te...
Pancake Posted 6 November, 2008 Author Posted 6 November, 2008 Forgot about the K&D Sessions, awesome version of Bug Powder Dust on there.
LVSaint Posted 6 November, 2008 Posted 6 November, 2008 You view? My personal top 5 would be (in no particular order) Coldcut - 70 Minutes Of Madness The greatest mix of all time? Possibly, and there is never a dull moment. First one I was going to suggest but see it has already been mentioned several times already in this thread. James Lavelle ones and Ninja's Solid Steel releases are always good. Speaking of Solid Steel, they do weekly mixes available at the website via podcast I'd imagine which were always, well, pretty solid. I actually find KoldKrushKuts on Ninjatune one of my favs.
Ponty Posted 6 November, 2008 Posted 6 November, 2008 Now 46 was great Unlike "Hit Mix '86" the "Now.." albums are not continuous mixes.
Deppo Posted 6 November, 2008 Posted 6 November, 2008 The Chemical Brothers and Jon Carter Live At The Heavenly Social ones are quite good.
Kadeem Hardison Posted 6 November, 2008 Posted 6 November, 2008 The INCredible Sound of Gilles Peterson.
percy windham Posted 6 November, 2008 Posted 6 November, 2008 Kid 606's 'the f*cking mentalist brings you the jams' which is like 2MDJs but much faster and funnier.. "action packed mentalist brings you the f*cking jams" you can thank me later. i also agree with 2manydjs, and jive bunny.
Scudamore Posted 6 November, 2008 Posted 6 November, 2008 (edited) Smith & Mighty - DJ Kicks If you like Massive Attack (and if you don't then we have a problem) then this is well worth checking. One of the originators of the Bristol Sound and pretty dubtastic i'd say...which then leads onto their albums which are also pretty amazing... *edit* The more i think about it the second half of that gets a little bit too early drum n bass for most tastes...just get Big World Small World if you like the idea of them...it's a cracking album... As far as Podcasts go i'd definitely recommend the Bare Sessions ones which pull out a whole load of Mo' Wax classics. Also the Streetlife DJ's ones are pretty damn sweet party music...

the stain Posted 7 November, 2008 Posted 7 November, 2008 The Chemical Brothers and Jon Carter Live At The Heavenly Social ones are quite good. Bam! Back when they called it 'Amyl House'.
warsash saint Posted 11 November, 2008 Posted 11 November, 2008 Any of the Australian Balance series with the best being the one mixed by James Holden.
TheCholulaKid Posted 11 November, 2008 Posted 11 November, 2008 Agree with many of the above but can't believe no one's mentioned: DJ Shadow & Cut Chemist - Brainfreeze Also occasionally enjoy a Krafty Kuts mix that was given away with Mixmag years ago.
TheCholulaKid Posted 11 November, 2008 Posted 11 November, 2008 Solid Steel presents DJ Food & DK. Thanks to your prompt, I'm enjoying this for the first time in ages. It's ace.
Julian H. Cope Posted 13 November, 2008 Posted 13 November, 2008 Annie Nightingale - Y4K. Deadmau5 Mixmag CD Feb 08. The Document - Andy Smith.
Pancake Posted 13 November, 2008 Author Posted 13 November, 2008 Also occasionally enjoy a Krafty Kuts mix that was given away with Mixmag years ago. "Instant Party - Just Add People"? I also enjoy that one from time to time!
