    S&D beatportal interviews

    Part 1


    Part 2



    To both Sasha and Digweed, any chance that you will be releasing another Sasha and Digweed album?! (Weeddigger)


    Sasha: Not as yet.
    The problem is our Sasha and Digweed albums have become iconic so the pressure to put out something better is so great.
    People would inevitably compare it to ‘Northern Exposure’.
    John Digweed: There won’t be anything this year as we’ve both got projects out there this year.
    Plus we both live in different countries now which makes things harder.

      John, do you have any specific reasons whatsoever as to your decision to stick to CDJ-1000 MK3s and an Allen & Heath Xone:92 mixer while Sasha has taken advantage of new DJing technology like Ableton Live and his MAVEN controller? (iamc8ged)

      Digweed: That’s just what I prefer.
      I’m happy with the set up we’ve got and I feel like we’ve got a set up I can be pretty creative with – with the Pioneer EFX-1000 and the SoundBite loop machine.
      I’m not the most animated of performers anyway, so if I started to use a laptop it would make me even less animated!

        Mr. Digweed the last time that you came to Guadalajara, Mexico, you had a dinner with Mr Cesar Cossio in Nikoy’s Restaurant. He is a friend of mine, and this time I already made a reservation in one of the best restaurants in the city; I spoke with the owner and he will be excited if you both come and have a dinner before the show. If you are interested contact me and I will send the restaurant link so you can see it and check out the menu. The owner already paid for the dinner in case you both and your manager come. (Togogo)

        John Digweed: Yeah I remember meeting Cesar, he’s a great guy.
        We’ll see how the time schedule permits.
        Thanks for the invite.

          ^^^^^
          Very true
          still he was pretty animated at the SF Warfieild show
          acknowledging the crowd quite a bit, in fact both him and Sasha
          played up the crowd way more than I have seen in a long time.
          It was weird. As for the article, have been following the blog, but interview is a nice add as well.

          So white-middle class Americans have been told by their Television sets to be fearful of:

          1. Mexicans/Latinos from the South bringing drugs and killings n' shit.
          2. African Americans cause mos def they are raging a race war and want to occupy America like how the plebs occupied Wall St.
          3. Iranians/Afghans/Any one of middle eastern origin to be quite frank, cause you know Islam...
          4. North Koreans/Chinese cause you know everything...

          Am I close here?

                  Didn't know Diggers supports Leeds and likes mountain biking !
                  sigpicSimonR

                  This release was mastered direct from vinyl at the request of the DJ and as such features natural sound characteristics of this medium such as record surface noise.

                      Sasha, what was the track you played at Ultra Music Festival on March 17, 2007 right before Spacegypsie "True Love Never Dies'? (Plaxx)

                      Sasha: That was two years ago, I have no idea!
                      Seriously - what the fuck kind of question is that? If this Plaxx character is on [ms] -10000000000

                        ^^^ + 10000000000 for saying that... "What was that track you played back in 1990 when that guy in the crowd was dancing"???
