John Digweed - Transitions 2

Re: John Digweed - Transitions 2

Vol.1 was pretty eclectic, with techy minimal house mixed progressively. Loved it. So looking forward to this one.

David K - Beautiful Dead... love that track, so looking forward to hearing this new one out on vol. 2

Re: John Digweed - Transitions 2

besides the fact its not all just house music... talk about the music, and not the 'genre'.

Re: John Digweed - Transitions 2

It's ok that there are various genre's within the mix and within each track, I'd personally rather there be some electro and trance here and there rather than just house...thats like old school of thought anyway right? Not to mention that this topic has been discussed more than the La Dunne set or anything other

But then again, I like his Fabric 20 cd more than Transitions 1, so what do I know?

^ I love the fabric mix, so analyze that for me Nikolic

what does that tell you? You seem to be a well versed trainspotter type.

Re: John Digweed - Transitions 2

they are different mixes imo.

the fabric is more groovy housey techy house stuff, while t1 is a slow gnarly workout that peaks at just the right time. both are mixed very well.. the fabric from track 2 to about 7 is just amazing.... and t1 from start to knights of columbus is impeccible. the little tricks and edits he did to the songs, especially 'every - feeling' adds a lot to the mix imo. there's bit he's mixing for days.. loop mashines are teh rads.

You're obviously mocking me here right? Oh well, I'll analyze it anyway

But Chloe is right... house and tech sounds rolled up into a nice mix with a groovey feel.

Joel Mull - Emico... awesome track, nice and deep. The transition Bobby Peru - Venom to Martin Solveig - Rocking music is spot on. It's a good compilation, and slots nicely as number 20 for the fabric series... but when comparing to transitions, i think it lacks depth in programming... it's a little bland. and whilst most of the tracks are good, they're not mind blowing. for me at least, T1 has some great stand out tracks just make me go Didn't get that from fabric. Maybe thats how its supposed to be with a pretty groovey album, and while I think its still great.... for me, its just not as good.

floridaorange, of course im not slagging your opinion. its your opinion and thats great. i was just taken a little by surprise because i think t1 is up there with some of his best, while fabric left a little to be desired. but, thats only my opinion.

Now that´s an analisys I consider interesting and worthwhile, because it never goes into discussing genres, just good or bad music. Well done!

Re: John Digweed - Transitions 2

Interesting input I was serious, not mocking btw. I guess comparing the 2 are pretty pointless, esp after hearing from the Chloemeister herself how different they are...Transistions was great the first 5 times, I completely agree, just for me Fab20 I've played probably 100 times, lol, who knows why? Always cool to hear people with credibility break it down about a cd, you 2 are both class.

side note, Chloe what do you think of the djthree proton mix? are you a fan of the label? have a nice monday

Re: John Digweed - Transitions 2

not heard the dj three mix? vots it. and what label?

Re: John Digweed - Transitions 2

My 2 cents on the Fabric release:

Starts off really wel with the first 3 tracks, gets a bit bland for me for about 30 minutes but then picks up again from the Infusion track onwards. Joel Mull-Emico is a brilliant track!
