Re: Dave Seaman The Masters Series 2011

^^ I'm interested in what you say . A good music discussion is the best sort of discussion even if we come at it from different places.

Not so different, maybe. I started with GU: Los Angels, still remains a masterpiece to me. Then bought NE1 and 2, The Mix Collection and then all the rest. But my interest in House Music, Kompakt, Plastic City, etc. has replaced prog as my main interest and "inspiration".

Ok, dancing, shitting, smoking apes is all I'll post from now on!

If Simon's point is that the comp was probably ready months ago, that can be true.

This is not the case,of course, but if a dj digs the Internet crater and comes up with 20 jewels no one has ever heard of (Robag Whrume, Andy Weatherall and may other less noble names), that is often -always- more exciting than a double cd of exclusive new tracks.

I enjoy your opinion & input

My view is just that, if I am spending my money on a mix CD, I want something fresh that will excite me or I'll get an old one off e-bay. I already subscribe to fabricfirst so don't buy too many other mix CDs (I get more than enough music each week).

Dolphin Love was nice at Easter Bedrock but I don't want to hear it in Autumn, likewise Flowers & Sea Creatures AM which was great in March ... but the vocal hasn't survived its freshness to October.

The Sasha track got tired pretty quick, even though Thermalbear's was my fav it would have been better to commission a remix of some exclusives from him (or an audiotherapy remix). My White Zebra is too recent to be a suprise delight ... I'd say go get something else from Ryan Davis or Estroe.

Just my opinion, it may work great as a mix and sound nice in 2 years time ... but I won't be buying it now.

Instead I'll get the next two mixmags (Maya Jane Coles & Sasha CDs) and Marcel Dettmann's new release Conducted.

But then he would be changing the track for the sake of changing it. Exclusives are a great buzz word to sell a CD but not so good if the tracks are not so good.

Little late on getting this... but damn fine mixes I must say.

I've only listened to CD1 and half of CD2 but I really enjoyed it so far. His GU from last year was terrible.

I'v also been all over this lately. Managed to get a signed copy the other week when he was over! Great mix.

Re: Dave Seaman The Masters Series 2011

Its nice to listen to a mix where the tracks sound like tracks and not a short succession of bleeps. I listen to some mixes wonder where does it stop being music and just become random noise.

Lol! Valid point indeed!
