late to the party...my ride broke down...

Yep still is the best after nearly  30 yrs.

Anyone know what the dialogue is from at the beginning of Land of the Living, it’s not on the actual dekkard mix?

Never gets old... in the Top 5 best mixes to ever come out

Easily top 10 prog mixes ever. Best CD on that album and that’s versus a few other discs by Dave Seaman...crazy

Equally my favourite Essential Mix of all time. Dave Seaman and Steve Anderson at their level best with an awe-inspiring mix, full of past anthems, great mixing and happy memories, which are timeless. Still spine-tinglingly fantastic. Artists include Deep Dish, Chakra, Digital Blondes, Bedrock, T-Empo, Blue Amazon and more. First broadcast on June 23rd, 1996. All thanks and rights go to Brothers In Rhythm and BBC Radio 1.

Renaissance: The Mix Collection Part 4 Dave Seaman [Disc 1]

One of the most well-known DJ's in the world, famous for his tireless remix and production work, as well as his long-running association with fellow top-flight Sasha. Beginning DJ'ing in the early 1990's in the company of friends like Fabio and Grooverider, he began to champion the burgeoning progressive house sound, most notably with his residency at Renaissance with Sasha. His partnership with Nick Muir as Bedrock in the early 90's yielded the club hits "For What You Dream Of" and "Set In Stone", and the runaway popularity of his Bedrock Records record label was established with its first release, "Heaven Scent", in late 1999. John continues to remix and produce music while running the Bedrock Records label and a successful weekly radio show on KISS-100 FM in the UK.

This is a recreation of the famous tape recorded live from Renaissance, Venue 44, and given out exclusively to members on a subsequent night. It has been remastered and kept true to the original, with just a little reworking and that big chunky 'Tape' sound, without the quality loss :)
I hope you enjoy it, as always it's great to hear your comments.

‘Lost In Lockdown’ Week 8 - Sasha 25th Anniversary Essential Mix @ Que Club.

In 1995, BBC Radio 1 and Cream put together their 'Live' tour with amazing line ups and aired them 'live' for the first time on the radio for listeners. On the Saturday 27th May, The ‘Grande Finale’ of the tour was at the legendary ‘Que Club’ in Birmingham and boasted a line up that featured the biggest Dj’s in the UK at that time. An all-night affair at a club that could hold thousands from 10pm-6am was a first of it’s kind and for the first time you could sit at home listening to the music and madness erupting.

After Sasha & John Digweed’s 1994 Renaissance album had converted and gained so many more fans to the duos epic brand of House Music, 1995 was to take it to the next level. The advancements in the sound they started playing was to be an insight into the future of electronic music. Progressive House suddenly had a harder edge and pushed the boundaries of sound using technology far away from the traditional House music sound with piano and soulful vocals. 

The reason I have chosen to commemorate this mix is that it changed my outlook on House music. I have always enjoyed all genres of music but back then we didn’t have the amounts of genres and sub-genres enjoyed now. I knew I was hearing something very different.

I recorded the whole broadcast from start to finish, swapping 90 min tapes in and out, barely containing my excitement for what I was hearing and capturing. The crowd noises, Tong’s voice bellowing out over the roar of the crowd announcing the DJ's – it was just amazing, literally AMAZING.

Out of all the mixes, it was, of course, Sasha’s that caught my attention and engaged me more than all the other mixes. Having already seen him play this was the nucleus for a brand new Sasha obsession.

To celebrate 25 years since Sasha played the mix live on air that Saturday evening (I still have the original tape, see pic) I’m going to play all the tracks he played* and hope to give us all the sense of nostalgia and wonderment I felt that night.

Most of the tracks are recordings from my vinyl collection before I sold it all to a collector back in 2014.

The mix itself is only around 80 mins so I’ll play some extra tracks from his other sets around the same time.

For myself, 1995 was my favourite year of clubbing ever. The music, the DJ’s the energy at that time was explosive. Join me and let’s take the journey back together.

From the silk roads of yore to the modern industrial shipping lanes on the high seas, Shmoo's sound is universal sonic commerce for the contemporary ear lobe. 

Cutting his teeth on leathery vinyl records: the product of serial crate digging, Shmoo was born a student of priceless works of art from Sasha, Digweed, Emerson, and Van Gogh. The progeny of driven immigrants, he strives to connect the dots through the annals of House and Techno history to his interest in modern day depth and texture. From his reverence for the past to his residency on the cutting edge, Shmoo offers a tour de force of what true House Heads desire.

Known for his successful You Are Here series with Derrick Carter at Chicago's legendary Spybar as well as his groundbreaking studio work with Gramaphone's Garrett David, Shmoo launched the leading-edge SHFFT multimedia project as a way to stay active during the global club shutdown. He has also held residencies at Berlin Nightclub, Copa Lounge, East Room, Electric Hotel, Estate, and the infamous Tanto’s. 

Shmoo’s debut EP on the seminal Love Notes From Brooklyn label has sold out at record stores around the world and has received support from Honey Dijon on BBC Radio 1. He has also been invited as a featured guest on DJ Heather's CHI FI SHOW Twitch live stream.

Shmoo is one of only six DJs recently recognized by the City of Chicago's Department of Cultural Affairs and Special Events for artistic excellence in House music production, promotion, and performance, alongside DJ Lady D, Steve Miggedy Maestro, and Duane Powell. Renowned House music publication 5 Magazine has named Shmoo 'one of the best people working on the scene in Chicago right now' and a 'hometown hero.'

Shmoo's remix of Mack Blagic by Groovy Drew on Jason Merle's 4E&A imprint has received support from Carl Cox among others. His release Split Up The Get Go, also on 4E&A, has reached number 2 on Beatport's After Hour Essentials: Deep House chart and number 6 on their Best New Deep House chart.
