I finally managed to find the time to do another 3 hour session... this time kinda bizarrely (a lot of let`s say `transition` in my life right now!) mixed on just one turntable using the input reverse toggle on my SSL system to control both `platters` & recorded over 2 distinct sessions then stitched together. Was a lot of fun to make, challenging too though of course only being able to make pitch changes with the ingoing channel. Harder then it seems! Anyway, a lot of absolutely killer tracks even without my vinyl collection... a loss but just this once I promise!
The set was mixed over 2 sessions, after a low slung dubby start punctuated by some groove and even some dry funk from Studio One I think you can feel a kind of natural pause after Minilogue`s `Hundraleva`. Then the set moves into jugular stretching harder stuff from the likes of Dettmann & Planetary Assault System (the new Ostugut it s welcome return to form) which I guess could be seen as the `peak` of the set, though for me these days its in the deeper groovier stuff that I really feel the music stretching its legs. This phase ends and the next starts for me with the all powerful Move D & his classic `Drone`, continuing through the dreamier side of my record box with Sean Palm & more Dozzy-esque bits and pieces from him & his italian compatriots, finishing in a crescendo of rolling toms a-la- PVH with his version of my own (yip yip) `Towline` closing the session. No prises for guessing who the weepy is by as a final closer... simply delicious.
