The 2005 Essential Mix of the year
Pete Tong’s Radio1 Essential Mix, which is listened to via live radio broadcast both online and offline in the wee hours of Saturday night / Sunday morning, and then streamed and downloaded by thousands online at later stages is, without a doubt, the most widely spread weekly dance music show in current times.
This makes for one hell of a massively influential 2-hour slot. The short list in the 2005 Essential Mix of the year is a varied one, and features the following finalists.
Essential Mix of the year finalists:
- King Unique
- Soulwax
- Krafty Kuts
- Tom Middleton (Star Wars Special)
- Sasha (Live on the Maven, Maida Vale Studio)
- Deep Dish
- Radio1's Decade in Ibiza at Space
- Pendulum
- Steve Angello & Sebastian Ingrosso
- Matt Hardwick
The winning mix will be announced in December and played out on NYE. You can vote below, or let us know what your favourite emix was this year in the forums.

None of them really struck me as interesting. Pendulum's sticks out the most to me, and I'd probably choose it over the rest, but there hasn't really been an EM this year that's truly grabbed me.

WTF?! That list really sucks.
The best Essential Mixes this year were Mandy, Tom Neville, and Hawtin/Villalobos.

yes, I also agree that it is a pretty poor list. I liked the Tania Vulcano Essential mix also, MANDY, and Tom Neville was also great.

Just a pity it was boring as bat shit.
For me, Digweed's GKGG was the best, but thats not in the list, nor is G&D's WMC set unfortunately. Am still waiting to get Pendulum's set off a mate cos I'm sure it'll pants most of the others that are on the list.
