I just really started getting into John Digweed's stuff. I was bored so I bought Transitions Vol. I and on the most part I've enjoyed it. A lot of outstanding tracks, a few okays here and there and maybe 2 or 3 yawner tracks IMO. I much prefer Sasha over Digweed but I'm guessing he's done better work. Not a huge fan of his Transitions show, I only really like 2 or 3 tracks he drops the whole hour, but I'm buying Transitions Vol. II for sure.
What are his best Mix CD's, I know there's MII and Fabric 20, which ones should I check out.
Also, I say Sasha & John Digweed - Renaissance The Mix Collection 10th Anniversary Edition 3 CD's. Sounds really good, is this just all their Northern Exposure CD's in one. Is it any good? and should I check it out. Any help would be nice.
Thanks

The Renaissance mixes and the Northern Exposure CDs are totally different things. I don't have the Renaissance mixes, but the Northern Exposures are all pretty good; the first one is probably my favorite. My favorite mix comp that Digweed has done would probably be Global Underground 14: Hong Kong. I like all of his GUs, though.
He's one of my favorite DJs all around. I've only seen him live once, but he didn't disappoint.

If we're talking solo, Bedrock followed by Los Angeles.

My favorite is his Global Underground: Hong Kong mix. Its actually one of the first mixes I've even bought as I was getting in the whole EDM genre. I honestly it was boring at first, but now I think its the shit!
all digweeds cds are boring after the first 5 plays then after that they pick up and are the shit.. well at least to me..

Dohn Digweed - Journeys By DJ.
Classic, was listening to this when most of you were still twitches in your dads nutsacks.

bedrock. but if you count S&D, then definitely northern exposure 1 or 2 (east coast). coincidentally, i found my old copy of bedrock recently and i've been hammering it in the car for the last week or so
