Thanks for checkin' it out Mario, and I'm glad you dug that Tejada remix in the last set... The one in this set is significantly weirder, but definitely one of my favorite tunes of the moment!

Glad you enjoyed it bro!

I suppose the "live" aspect of this could end up being a bit misleading, as it wasn't played at peak hour, to a room full of kids waiting to dance. It was played early on in the evening while myself and the rest of the folks were just smoking some bowls and having cocktails chillin' out before the weekend. I played the more atmospheric and moody stuff because it seemed appropriate at the time, nobody was ready to have the tunes banged out at them, everyone just wanted somewhat chill vibes to hang out and get high to...

Also, this is the first mix I've ever posted on TA where I spun some vinyl...


Posted by RJT on Aug-14-2006 17:50:

Oh, also, thoughts, perhaps reviews even, are most welcome

Done a quick review for the mix dude, here she is...

Rob Turner Live @ OMGWTFBBQ 2006

As an instant fan of Rob�s from his �Glamorama� offering, I picked up this mix with a combination of delight and expectation reserved normally for the latest GU releases.

The first track �Friday Night Hero� grabs you instantly and immerses the listener in a swirling concoction of deep & stabby chordal funk, followed by the haunting pads and tight squeaky riffs of Santiago & Bushido�s �Big Time Illusion�. As a warm-up set I find this very encompassing & involving, with enough energy to keep the vibe warm without resorting to hammering out peak-time numbers.

To be honest I was blown away with the sheer quality of the track selection and direction the mix took, especially with the advent of Seafoam� �Forge� and the sweet, tripped out melodies that emerged following such a menacing introduction.

The Tejada numbers are always a winner with me too, his remix of �Scary Biscuits� didn�t disappoint at all. The only low point of the entire mix for me was Gui Boratto �Like You� but that�s simply personal taste, it doesn�t do anything for me!

Major coolio points awarded for the re-introduction of �Friday Night Hero� in its original guise too, that was wicked! I�m going to stop ruining the tracks for people who haven�t heard them yet, so moving on�

The mixing was virgin-tight, from subtle EQ manoeuvres to the perfect blends from one track to another.

And I don�t care how much of a fanboy I sound on this review, Rob is a talented guy and this mix puts that beyond doubt on the back of hearing Glamorama.

Kudos bruv, and I sincerely look forward to the next episode!

I'm in!


Posted by RJT on Aug-16-2006 01:20:

Wow... Thank you so much for the kind words man, I genuinely appreciate any feedback, but a review like that is definitely above and beyond anything I'd expect... Thank you again m8! You made my night!

One random note: That Gui Boratto track is the first vinyl record I've dropped in a recorded set in ages...

Well, apparently Beatport either had them labeled wrong, or the titles changed, but tracks 1 and 7 are "Thursday Night Hero" and not "Friday..."

First post edited to reflect whatever happened there...

Also, this is what BBQ we're talking about right here...



^ RJT/Rob (playing as 1/3 of Digital Penetration)



^ UWM/Bobby (another 1/3 of Digital Penetration)



^ dj_bas/Bas (another 1/3 of Digital Penetration)



^ Aquadyne/Yuris (1/2 of Baltic Bloc)



^ Aquadyne/Yuris & wolverine16/Andy (Baltic Bloc)



^ drunken Yuris and me dancing in the background



^ DP tearin' it up at the house



^ and this is what happens when everyone at the show is a DJ

getting this now

RJT, this mix had really good potential when it first started out, especially when you dropped Mason - Exceeder (DJ Fex Remix). I sampled your mix during a 1 hr drive and OMG my right foot just mashed the gas pedal when the bass line kicked in from that track. The mix started out with delicious variety, seamless transitions and solid tracks. But by the 5th track I started to get lost.. Although some of the tracks in the 2nd half were good, the overall feel was disconnected as I felt like I was having a robot mix, where the choons were dropped not because they go well with one another but because they are good on their own. Your use of the Thursday/Friday Night Hero mixes was IMO a bad choice because the original mix does not have the staying power of the remix. The percussions in the original just doesn't have the long lasting appeal so to hear almost 6 minutes of it really made me want to press the fast forward button. Maybe if you somehow incorporated both versions back to back or in one edit that woulda been better. Some of the sections also dragged on a bit too long with the electro house feel (lacking variety) and there just wasn't enough surprises to keep me entertained from track 5 to end. A solid start but a weak middle drove down the ratings for this but nonetheless I woulda loved to hear this live. I still love "Mono" to death.

I'm seeing double I think???

lol. Great set man. I'm an instant fan of your's since Glamorama.

Mix is filled with a great combination of light chill and dark trippy house. That's what's great about your style I think. Not only do you pick just plain sick tracks but you have a balance with more friendly light stuff with the driving killer stuff.

Programming in this set is good, but not as good as Glamorama. I don't think I should really compare the two. I think a bit more preporation when into Glam, correct me if I'm wrong. BUT. Still a killer set. Not gonna go on a diatribe about how this set should build more and should take me to another world, lol. I realize this was a sponaneous set for friends and it does the job sickly. Listened a few times now. Once while playing poker with my buds and it was an enjoyable thing. Everyone kept asking what it was.

Cheers and thanks for checking out my latest.

Hey m8 - Thank you for the well thought out criticism, and to be completely honest with you, I think I agree with most of what you said. This was the first time I had ever played 9 of the 12 tunes in this set, and it genuinely was my "warm up" for the weekend where I was attempting to work out/learn some of the new tunes I would be playing over the course of the weekend. I completely agree that the beginning is significantly stronger than the end, but in the end, it was a one-off live set, and it was posted mainly because all of the other sets from the weekend were lost, and this was the one that survived. Oddly enough though, one of my favorite parts of the mix are at the end - Especially the mix from "Thursday Night Hero" (Original Mix) into "Precious" (Sasha...)

In any event, I really do appreciate the feedback m8... It's only going to help me in the end... I hope to put a new, proper demo up by the end of September (I'm moving/vacationing right now, so working on music is pretty much nonexistant for a month), and hopefully that will bring you back to the joy of Mono...

I am always excited to hear what you think Metatron, you know your shit when it comes to this stuff, and I have an immense amount of respect for you as DJ simply because you put out quality release after quality release, month after month.

You are correct, there was no preparation what-so-ever for this set, and as I mentioned earlier, it was really me trying to figure out all the new tunes I had picked up over the week prior to the BBQ.

Really glad you dug it bro!
