Sub Focus - This saturdays Essential mix!

Ransom is basically Pendulums way of saying 'look, we can make DnB better than most of you, its just not what we wanna do right now. So fuck off'
Thats how I see it anyway.
 
Dan, Chester
We have got 'In new DJS we trust' slots for 'specialist' acts like this. Leave the Essential Mix for House/Techno acts like forthcoming Steve Lawler and Laurent Garnier (can't wait!!) I am going to have a listen to Subfocus but not expecting much - Red Indian Drumbeats as my Mum would say! Joris Voorn and Fake Blood best so far this year!

I wonder how many people have heard of Subfocus compared to Steve Lawler and Laurent Garnier? Fucking lol at 'specialist'...
 
So are you saying that all the mixes are clear & Clean

of the top of my head -

Timewarp/Chubrub
In and out of Dr Feelsgood

These were not great


Timewarp and Chubrub is a very good mix.


Eqing is nice and its in prefect key.

I would suggest checking your setup. Cos its not over powering at all.

need to check second mix cant think off the top of my head. I and many other people including TeeBee can tell a lot of work went into this mix.

was listening to this timewarp/chubrub in the motor this morning on way tut station. i noticed a few school kids larfing at me as it dropped and i started doing sum front seat skankers!

ur right the mixing is pretty tight... yer it isnt perfect but theres no point in the whole mix where u wud say "oh dear" or can hear any clashing beats.

and to me, having it a bit ruff n ready with tunes cummin in left right n centre is how i like a mix to be. u can tell hes using vinyl.

even tho its a radio rip and on mp3 the sound quality isnt bad at all. yer... when sopme double drops come in theres a little bit of a loss as levels peak a little but hu gives a shit? it was made for radio at the end of the day so blasting it thru a mad system is always gonna distort.

I'm just pissed off that i'm already sick of all of his songs.


I was after "follow the light" and "deep space" etc for ages, now they're getting a bit "killaz dont die" .



Massive set tho !
 
at leats this mix has shown what new bits will be coming out on ram.... if that ram remix ep doesn't come out i;m guna cry coz the lunar bass vip is so sick as well as the no reality remix..
 
It will probaby be the Brookes Brothers

Wouldn't be a bad shout

Although I'm not sure they're ready for it just yet

I don't know if Fresh has ever done an essential mix, and he has an album droppin around September apparently, I wouldn't mind hearin that
 
I've listened to this properly now. When I commented in here about it before I had only listened to it when I was pretty drunk. I gotta say it's a solid mix all round really, think Sub Focus has done a pretty good job tbh. 'Vapourise', 'Deep Space' and 'Rockit' really are incredible tunes by the guy and you can tell the amount of work that went into them. Hope 'VCF' is on the album too, love that tune. Also feeling the new Culture Shock bit and the co-lab with Furlonge, two great future tunes there. The mixing really isn't that bad, some of the blends aren't perfect. But at the end of the day he's a producer, not a DJ. But he still nails this for me and it's a damn site better then TC's attempt a while back. All in all good stuff, looking forward to the album, hope there's some suprises on there too.
