Roger Sanchez

John Digweed
Rui Da Silva
Paul Oakenfold
Danny Howells
Hernan Cattaneo
James Zabeila
James Holden

The Sasha & Digweed one just felt like a huge disappointment. The week it was supposed to be broadcast it was canceled because the Queen Mother died. They replaced the Essential Mix with Electronic Dance Music by some unknown DJ. I didn't think the Sasha or Digweed parts where that great. They even played that hopeless Moby track twice

That Moby track belongs in the same record box as Cowpander, lets Get Ill, Flash Dance, Smells Like Freeland, etc

I´m listening to Parks & Wilson´s 2002 EMix right now, having never heard it before, and really, this just took a spot amongst my all-time favourite mixes by anyone... evil, twisted, epic genius, I just put my head down for two hours and got completely lost in this.

This is a soundtrack for beautiful nightmares.

Without a doubt! Its a shame that I can never really find any Parks and Wilson sets about.

Yeah... besides the 2 E-mixes and the Painting On Silence and Baroque In Session discs, I´ve never seen much else from them around.
