I'm not a huge fan of his dj sets, but his label (Classic) is consistently... weird. For that, I love him.

There's been so many great tracks released on the label in the last few years... "Lies", "B.M.P.", "Bushes", "Happiness", "We Are the Future", etc., etc...

The Fatboy Slim remix of "Bushes" is great.

classic liscensed "beau mot plague" for wider release = he has done more to popularize microhouse than anyone else so far = i thank him.

You're too kind, Jess.

mwah.

the 611 mix is one of the very very BEST house CDs of the past few years. ok, the first half is, the second half more ordinary, but still--how many DJs get even that far?

As opposed to Mr Warner, I am a huge fan of his DJ sets. Over the past 5 or so years that I've been going to Basics in Leeds, he has certainly been one of the standout performers.

I strongly recommend his 'Pagan Offering' mix cd of Pagan Records' back catalogue - quality records and qulaity mixing.

Great DJ! Great producer! Great Label!
My favorite mix remains last year's "If it moves, kiss it"-mix on the double mix-compilation Thanks for coming by...

five years pass...

what else should i look for on Classic? i only have a few, but they're all good (Iz & Diz, Derrick L. Carter, Metro Area, 3rd Face).

also, do i need this if i already have the playhouse 12"?

Srsly though, does music get better than Brett's "Jiffy Pop", or the Solid Groove mix of "About Love", or the Pepe Bradock remix of Iz & Diz's "Mouth" AKA one of the best house tracks ever??

It's such a compulsive mix. I think the drawback with a lot of mixes of this kind of stuff is that the DJ feels compelled to mix the really bouncy tracks with more grayscale stuff, whereas this is straight jacking bounce the whole way through - correct me if I'm wrong but it's kind of the closest that Classic got to sounding like it was actually Music For Freaks, no?

Tim F, Wednesday, 11 June 2008 13:13 (seventeen years ago)

yes, you're wrong!

haven't you heard rob mello's no ears mix???

** ok, this is cheating, because one of those tracks (C++'s sublime "angie's fucked") actually is from MFF ...

moonship journey to baja, Thursday, 12 June 2008 22:59 (seventeen years ago)

Oh that's right I still need to get that. Yeah it wouldn't surprise me to be wrong on this count: Mello loves the bounce.

Argh that does remind me though that I've lost his ace RA podcast.

Tim F, Thursday, 12 June 2008 23:03 (seventeen years ago)

while where on the subject of Classic mix cd's, the luke solomon disc on the 'Thanks For Coming By...' double is a beautifully deep selection. really need to dig that one out again. never got into the DC mix though.
