Also, from the same author, I would highly recommend:

"While he had us on the line, Dixon also took a minute to further explain why Live at Robert Johnson Vol.8 will be his last mix CD:

I am sick of two things. First, the format itself. When I felt I was getting warmed up working on the last mix CD, the mix CD was over. So, in the future, if I do do something, it will be longer than 75 minutes and with a constant flow. I don't want to split it on two CDs and do two new concepts. The other thing is that I never, ever liked that medium, CD, at all. I always had an understanding of vinyl and I knew why I loved vinyl for such a long time. I don't play vinyl anymore but I know why I loved it. I never loved CDs. It was there, it was just something to use. The thing is, I absolutely hate the industry that is behind CD distribution. I can't stand the idea of compiling something and having to wait for six months for the release, just because the business works like this. I don't think the business needs to work like this and we are actively looking for ways to do it differently.

I don't know if you know this, but there are no mixes from me available online free of charge because I am completely against that. I never allow anyone to record my sets and I never do any promotional mixes, except for just two in the last four years: one for Resident Advisor and one for Red Bull Music Academy. In the future, I think I will do a mix that is available online but I want to do it with a new business model and this business model will include payment. Whoever wants to listen will need to pay, even if it is just a very little amount of money, and the artists involved will be paid.

With my last mix CD, I realised that it [the industry] was always going to be an issue. It never mattered if I was supposed to be doing a super fresh mix CD with only new music. The release would still be delayed until six months later. It made me pissed. Also, if it was a record that included a lot of classics and unreleased material, I was pissed that not only had I finished something and it was only released 6 months later, when I was not able to hear it anymore, but also it was then that I had to speak about it and people were able to buy it. After all this, I realised that this was my last mix CD. I thought "That's it. I can't handle it anymore." I can't do this format and not really feel it, that's my biggest problem."

Oops. The allure of Pete Dong and the worldwide audience procured by the hallowed Emix obviously overcame his ideals...

Re: Dixon - Beats In Space Radio (13-09-2011)

thanks fellas.

i really REALLY fell in love with Dixons Essential Mix, can anyone recommend any other of his sets that may come close to that masterpiece...

Re: Dixon - Beats In Space Radio (13-09-2011)

I agree with what he says but not how he says it... The part about him saying that who ever wants to listen has to pay just sounds wrong to me... I would say it like " I will provide mixes from now on my website for a small fee" that sounds more humble then you gotta pay! The whole waiting 6 months thing he's right about that, thats what killed the DJ mix Cd, well and the internet lol

Have you heard the Dixon + Ame Boiler Room mix? This is one of my favorites.
