Love all his Plastikman stuff, have the archives there, some pure quality among them!!

I don't suppose anybody ever had a listen to james lavelle cream live 2. A fine example of turntablism right there.

Fully agree. Stuff he churns out now doesn't come close to the old Plastikman stuff.
Have you seen this documentary about him? Well worth a watch

First 45 minutes is excellent. Trails off a bit when he goes down the minimal route which I wouldn't be mad about.

Got a start on it today Anto was out and about walking for a bit.Only got to the fourth track tho House stomping is It r maybe the 1 after that.Yeah interesting stlye so far like the way u cut in with with hold that sucker down after Blast.I think the next bit of mixing is similar enough aswellIll give it a full listen tomorrow as I'll more than likly b waiting around for a bit 2morrow.

If you have any hard trance throw a mix together might tempt the lads a bit more to have a listen:cool:

Cheers man. Of all the styles to mix so far oldskool is proving to be the most challenging as the song intros do not generally start with a 8/16 bar intro like Prog house so the mixing style is more urgent as opposed to general beat matching.

Most of the choons in the mix are beat matched but some of the tricker ones are cut which is an art in itself believe me. The only good thing is they mixing in key with oldskool classics can really sound great when it works.

The mix between house stomping and beautiful morning worked out well for me so I'm happy enough with that.

I'd be more than happy to do a hard trance mix if the boys give me the names if their fave choons.

I do have some trance mixes up on my page so have a listen and see if that is the style that you'd are inta boys or do I need to go harder again. Listening to some of the choons posted up today I reckon that my trance mixes may be a bit light!!

Check out spicy sessions mix 10 in particular which is one of my own personal favs and have a goa flavour to it.

Went digital about 3 years ago when I ran outta space for my trusty 1210's and the wife was givin me grief!! Saddest day of my life lettin them go after playin then nearly every day for over 10 years. Like losin my arms!!! Still have all of my vinyl in my mates gaff though, couldn't bring myself to part with them. Must have close to 300 Records or there abouts.

Had to learn using digital but once u learn initially to mix on decks it all falls into place quite quickly so I still get to do my music without the grief about taking up soo much room with the decks & Amp etc. happy daysðŸ˜„

List 5-10 Ed Case choons from over years and Ill get them into a mix.
