i didnt really get through this whole mix. it was kind of all over the place and its kinda difficult to describe in terms of the mix of music played.
not really focused enough for my tastes.
kind of interesting for a listen, but if you're looking for a solid, consistent dance mix, this isn't it. |

is it me or have the EM's gone down drastically in the last 2 years, what used to be an anticipated live mix have been shitty sent in mixes (for the most part, there are expections and there have been some good live sets) but, tong and the crew at Radio1 have been making the Em's way to broad...and I am not really looking forward to listening to it anymore........ |

Not a fan of this type of mix and I agree with the above correspondent about the downward spiral in quality.
Used to be I couldn't wait to hear the latest mix.
But this year has been absolutely shite for the most part. |

I think tgross79 is spot on. I like different syles and all but this year has, for the most part, been a let down. |

well, just finished it. features a lot of music i usually listen to (lcd soundsystem, ricardo villalobos, the rapture, hot chip, etc.), and it's well-mixed. nothing to start a block party, but i liked it. |

The Essential Mix needs a breath of fresh air like this one every now and again. This doesn't fully work for me because it's just too wilfully different in places, but very inventive and well mixed. The tune at 1:45:00 is great.
Put this alongside Air, The Rapture, Danny Howells 2002, Cass & Slide, Freddie Fresh etc in terms of bringing a fresh angle, whether it works for you or not. |
