DJ Producer Old Skool Mix

Truly excellent mix from the legendary DJ producer – one of the few artists in his field that I have a lot of time for, due to his clean production style and instinctive grasp of dancefloor dynamics. This is an Ableton mix, and having delved deep into this stuff myself I can say that using a computer is probably the only way you could mix a tight set of tunes from this era, and this set is seriously tight – with loads of extra little touches. As the man himself says:

Another “cut to bits” megamix executed solely with ableton live.
And featuring another dose of my heritage, this time shit-kicking breakbeaters from the realms of 1992–this is the REAL underground oldskool rave shit right here!!!!
At a time when music wasnt quite jungle, but certainly had nothing to do with house music. We just called it “uk hardcore”.

And yes—there are a couple of piano’s in there.
But i truly dont give a fuck.
This about 1st gen beat breakage–and true to that style only minamal filtering was used–this is mainly about emulating old school tape edits. It sort of worked –
But ill let you lot be the judge + jury.
