thats what the first hour of his set felt like when I saw him for the first time, but then he picked that shit up a whole lot of notches.

digweed...

is f*ckin awesome. after you get through the monotonous intro tracks of his sets, which aren't too bad... its just that i need to hear at least a slight melody to stay interested...

anyway, yea i heard diggers for the first time the other night also, and he totally blew me away. flawless, and i mean PERFECT transitions and the core of his set was amazing. the man knows what he's doing. he used a shit load of cd-r's which was great, i was happy to hear brand new unheard stuff for once.

and he dropped Trafik - Your Light (Luke Chable Dub) i couldn't have been any happier.

nice guy too, autographed all our stuff

i can't imagine what a 10 hour set from him would be like... but im pretty sure i'd fastforward to about hour 3 or so lol...

Very true.

I may have found his set boring beyond belief, but his mixing is absolutely seamless.

No live set quite gets me like the one that was recorded at Twilo the night the club was emptied out because of a small fire on the second floor. That was one night I'll never forget. You may be able to find it on Soulseek. Mercuryserver.com

You lucky SOB.

I have seen Diggers 2 times. First time was him and Sasha during their Delta Heavy tour. It was one of the best club nights for me. The second time I saw him was in the Area2 tour with Tiesto and Moby. If people thought Tiesto tore the roof down that day, Digger probably tore down the entire venue.

I guess, from now on if I go to see him Im gonna arrive an hour or so late. On the other hand I really dont think I could listen to anyone for 10 hours, I mean thas a lonnnnnng time but then if you put meltdown together that was like 8, I dont know those maratahon sets just seem like theyre so long that you would loose enjoyment.

Digweed is absolutly amazing on the decks. No one, and I mean no one can mix the way he does. I have seen him 3 times and two of those sets are the best live sets I have ever witnessed.

I think his set the other day in Houston was probably one of the best DJ sets I've ever heard...

Ok I recommend these CDs, and they were the main reason I wanted to hear him live:


Sasha & Digweed Northern Exposure vol. 1&2



edit-

Get this set it fucking rox:

John Digweed- Live @ Heaven Essential Mix (10.06.02)

Digweed is one of the best DJs I heard live. His mixing skills are outstandig. Saw & spoke to him @ his 5h gig on 12th April 2003 in Zurich.
