One of my all-time favorite discs is JVM's Bedrock mix album from 2001, particulary disc 1.
But I never see anything else he did other than singles. I have not even been able to find any live sets on MP3,etc. Does anyone know if he has any more CD's available?

Sanctuary is an incredible track. I haven't heard any of his livesets except the time I saw him live. Didn't care for the set to much, it seemed like it wasn't getting anywhere. Very deep prog....

Jimmy used to play out more, but like many of the American progressive DJs and producers, his shows on the West Coast have bcome few and far between. Seems he is another casualty of a saturated progressive market.
I did like his MOS Cd from a few years ago.

to answer the question, Jimmy Van M did a Bedrock CD, he does not do many sets to begin with, I saw him live once, he owned.

He did the Trance Nation America CD a while back (possibly even before that Bedrock one?) with Taylor. Deep throbbing prog stuff from memory - picked it up for like $AU 10 in a clearance sale.
But yeah, considering he was once one of the hottest young things in the American prog scene, he has been very quiet of late (on the production, CD and DJ fronts). Wonder what he's up to these days?
i was wonderin where he went last week after listenin to his Bedrock CD.. almost a 'fell off the face of the earth..'.. lol..

Well, I heard a rumor some time ago that he was going deaf and thats why he wasn't performing much anymore.
But I saw him play in Philly a few months ago so I think that was a bunch of BS.
I just find it odd that he never put out any more recordings.

I have a few livesets of his:
Live @ Club Martin - 1/24/03
Live @ Last Supper - 7/10/03
Live @ Global Gathering - 1/2/04 (Kiss100 guest dj set)
Other than Sanctuary, I know he has made a few other tracks under his own name and has done some collaborations as well. Nothing really new though.
Jimmy van M - Jetlag
Jimmy van M - Forget Time (feat. Terra Deva)
Jimmy van M - Love Like Sleep (feat. Terra Deva)
ECVM - Circuit Breaker
van M & Leeds - More

Sanctuary is fantastic. I saw him open for Sasha and Digweed for the Delta Heavy tour and he was pretty good. I wasn't as into deep proggie as I am now, so I didn't enjoy it as much as I would now. Still pretty good overall though.
