What is this mix of Unfinished Symapthy? Without the Accapela.

It’s ok recognise now, it’s the Gui Boratto mix.

This is an amazing track. Thx for introducing me to it.

So my good friends who run the Hacienda Friends Facebook Group asked me to get involved in a live stream a little while ago while we were all in self isolation lockdown. 
I did my usual days and days of preparation, including contacting the other DJs playing before me to check what vibe they were planning on playing, in order to achieve a good flow for the day, and not repeat any tracks that other DJs had played (as many of them would be playing big Hacienda classics). 
I had selected a varied selection of tunes - Hacienda classics that I used to play at the club, some recent bombs that I have played out at some of my recent gigs, some exclusive mashups, and various other stuff. As per usual, I did not have a clue what I was going to play, preferring to select tunes ‘on the hoof’.
As it turned out on the day (as a result of the all-pervasive technical problems with streaming live) the DJ running order was changed around at the last minute…leaving me with no idea of what was going to be played before me.

So I decided to play a mix of old and new, just feeling a vibe…starting off quite spiritual with Massive Attack, moving through Acid House, Disco House, a bit of Italo and moving through some more intense vibes towards the end…a bit of a mish mash!

At the very beginning (and throughout) the set I had some strange media player problems, which meant I could not properly cue and drop tunes in, and do my usual bit of turntable trickery.
Luckily the problem did not disrupt my set too much, but there were some wierd glitches which I had no control over. Also I had a strange distorted mono feed to my speakers in the studio throughout which was a bit offputting.
So I was not going to upload this mix as it was not good enough for me…until I realised that I had recorded another feed which was in stereo with no distortion. Hurrah!

Therefore I decided to do some minor editing to get rid of the major equipment glitches in the sound recording, in order to improve the flow of the recording….and that is what I have upoaded here.

I do hope you enjoy it.
Please feel free to like, share and re-post. Big love. Stay safe, stay clean, stay sane. xx

DJ, Producer and Songwriter. 
Technics/DMC World DJ Mixing Champion.
Resident DJ at Manchester's infamous Hacienda.
Creator of the classic 'Hear The Drummer Get Wicked'.
Chad has been a DJ, music producer and educator since the mid 1980s, having bagged the crown of Technics/DMC World DJ Mixing Champion in 1987. Resident DJ at the now legendary Hacienda club in Manchester - to a worldwide smash hit in 1990 with ‘Hear The Drummer Get Wicked’, he has gained worldwide industry respect and recognition and was recently honoured with a DJ Legend award by DMC.
Chad has been a champion of contemporary music with his journey through many different genres throughout the years, always pushing the boundaries forward.
Originally from St Helens, Chad held a residency at Manchester’s groundbreaking Haçienda club during its heyday, being one of the architects of the newly emerging House Music scene, alongside fellow legends including Mike Pickering and Graeme Park.  Chad quickly became a key global influence in the popularization of the art of DJ mixing and remixing. While at the Hacienda he started producing remixes exclusively for use on the legendary DMC DJ-only vinyl collections, showcasing his eclectic tastes from notable artists such as Grace Jones, Kraftwerk, The Beastie Boys, De la Soul, Public Enemy, Deelite, Mantronix, Norman Cook’s Beats International and some bloke called Prince! 
Chad was one of the first British DJs to start mixing and exploring turntablism in the early 1980s. 
By the mid 80s a flyer with his name on it would guarantee queues outside clubs like Manchester’s iconic Legend club and Wigan Pier, which he took over from his great friend and early mentor Greg Wilson. Along with Greg, he was one of the first to champion the newly emerged Electro Funk sound from the likes of Newcleus, Midnight Star and Man Parrish, and was an early exponent of the newly emerging Hip Hop sound. 
Chad’s regular live broadcast sessions and end of year ‘Best Of…’ mixes on Piccadilly/Key 103 radio had the North-West of England hovering their fingers over the tape-deck record button. These original cassettes are highly prized today, with fans inundating Chad’s website for copies of these infamous mixes. 
1987 was a seminal year for Chad when he took the roof off the Royal Albert Hall in London with his skilful and entertaining DJ mixing performance at the Technics/DMC World DJ Mixing competition, where he quite rightly secured his place as one of the legendary World Champions. The world really opened up for him after winning the championship when he undertook a whirlwind 2 year world tour headlining clubs in New York, Russia, Japan, Brazil and even the closing party of the Cannes Film Festival! 
By 1990 Chad’s focus had returned to studio production, remixing and re-edits. 
His first solo work followed and Chad Jackson’s ’Hear The Drummer Get Wicked’ went straight to the top of charts around the world. It is now considered a 90’s classic. 
Three decades on and there is no sign of Chad slowing down – music flows through his veins more than ever and this is evidenced by his many current gigs, radio shows and various productions for release.  Chad has graced the decks at a range of events, from Festival No6 in Wales and Secret Garden Party in Huntingdon, through to the Hacienda in Manchester, Electrospective with Greg Wilson and Colin Curtis and the House of St Barnabas in Soho. He is currently promoting his 'Journey Through My Record Collection' imprint, with a regular radio show on Music Box Radio and a DJ tour at selected venues around the country.
