    2005 Musically - In Your Words!!!!

    As we draw to the end of another year (they seem to be flying in) I wanna take a min to post things I've loved about this year and a few things I havent.

    Feel free to summarise your year in this post:

    Best track of 2005 - Sia:Breathe Me (Ulrich Schnauss mix) - the version from Sasha's EM. One of the greatest dance tunes I've ever heard, so emotional, must have listened to this track 1000 times in 4 months

    Best set - sasha's em from maida vale. Slated by everyone, but this is quality, so many awesome tracks in it.

    Comp of year - Warren Shanghai - great tracks, great programming, warren surpised me with this belter of a cd, timeless

    best mix from 2 tracks - morgan page into michael mayer-lovefood on sasha's em. Something about this mix makes the hairs stand up on the back of neck

    Honourable mentions:

    Desyn's kiss mix

    pole folders kiss mix

    howells miami cd1

    seaman therapy sessions 2

    pappa from club korona oct 21 - brilliant set from the best mixer in the business

    cattaneo masters 2 - again just a quality cd

    dislikes:

    balance 7 - i've tried and tried but cannot get into this at all. superbly programmed but doesnt count for much when the tracks are quirky and eclectic like this.

    fundacion nyc - would be up there with the best of them if it ended after the holden tracks, but alas the end is too monotonous for me

    electro - wtf??

    seaman's kiss mix - lazy and messy

    loads more shout outs, but i'll post them later when i can think of them

    feel free to add comments

                    this year was all about digweeds return to twilo for me. what a night. hanging out all banged up laughing with poto and his roomies. seeing the MS ppl we ran into. was a special vibe and diggers lived up to and exceeded.

                    tracks i loved

                    moby- dont you forget about me- booka shade ermix (thanks to poto for playing it and for fortier showing me where to get it)

                    playing for digweed was my fav.

                    CD-
                    lisle OS blew my mind.
                    nick warren shanghi
                    everything by andy newland

                    and have to give much much respect to hector romero for surprising me a ton with one of the most darkest, evil and deep sets i have ever heard.could have been tagged with diggers and sounded just as good.

                    also, the MS crew for putting a great radio station together, highlighed my Yao's sets which i thoroughly enjoyed a few times.

                    and picklemonkey and skahoud and asdf admin for keeping me entertained every day at work.
                    your life is an occasion, rise to it.

                      Re: 2005 Musically - In Your Words!!!!

                      I think it was a great and fantastic year for electronic music. From those nice people at Mixmag. I got to hear a great Angello and Ingrosso Mix for the price of the magazine, which had some great stuff in it. Then next month they have a wonderful cd from one of the kings of Minimal...LocoDice, and with a sweet cd. That magazine made me really wish i could've made it across the pond this year to go to Ibiza, and even more to go to DC-10 and Cocoon. Along with the REAL Cocoon in Germany. Richie Hawtin moved across the pond as did Jimmy Van M. Maybe that'll help them get more gigs over there.

                      I don't have a favorite track for the year. But i'm really digging Royksopp's 49% Angello and Ingrosso and the MANDY mixes. Superb track.

                      Overrated track of the year... Pryda - Aftermath. And yes I did buy it anyway.

                      Best dj set? I've got a pretty sweet set from Digweed in Dubai that is cool. I'm listening to him more this year than i did in the past two years together. Go Digweed.

                      Thing to be thankful for...my two residencies in columbus. I have a Thursday which used to be Friday at the local Carlile club and a monthly that I do at the Bristol Bar. Pretty nice places. But i'm looking forward to playing out soo much more in 06.

                      Along with producing sooo much more.

                      Be on the lookout for a free remix from myself within the next few weeks.

                              probably not. it's probably one of the guys' ex-girlfriends names.
