Originally posted by djmetatron I totally agree with you on the themes thing. I love sad music, I find it to be the most beautiful. At the risk of sounding like a spammer, my mixes are always theme'd to an extent, at least I try for them to be. Embalm is probably my best example of a more meloncholly theme'd set. Maybe they aren't your style, but I hope you check a couple of them out. As far as other DJs with theme'd type sets, it's really hard to find. I can't think of anything recent that is what your talking about. I think James Holden's recent sets are the best place to look. James Holden @ Loft Club 09-04-2005 is a particularly good one. Holden at least has a very consistent style that, while is experimental at times, has an overall effect that is very satisfying.

You are right, James does hold a theme to most of his sets, and thats why i regard him sooo highly. He does get out there, but deep and dark enough to keep me interested.


I was just feeling down in life, and i needed something that helped me deal with it. Not necessarily get me out of my sad mood, but instead to embrace it.

2002 was a big year for the sad sound, two things i listen to, when im in that mood:

Paul Oakenfold - Essential Mix - LIve at Space, Ibiza(sooo beautiful)
Sasha - 2002 07 24 - Live at La Mania, 3-4 hours of emotional bliss
Tiesto - ISOS 3


thanks for all the input guys, it is much appreciated.

Any more suggestions for Themed sets?

I dont think these are sad, they're just chilled. I still love to hear the full 10 min Original of No One on Earth from start to finish. It's more emotional that way

Hey! 2 great tracks, definately worth mentioning both. "Broken" is a great singalong track, and her voice is fantastic. I really like the Pitch & Sulphur remix.

Orion "See Me Hear": I remember walking in the house with my headphones still in... I sat down in a chair and just cried hearing this, for no reason whatsoever!! Im not a weirdo honest

Wow, that's just awsome!! It's the last track on "Deep & Chilled Euphoria" (the meditative one!) and it's just mind-blowingly cool
