Originally posted by SYSTEM-J Also, one of my favourite things about the Essential Mix which I never hear talked about is that beautiful Radio One compression you get on them, particularly the older ones. The sound quality is so fat and has a fantastic texture to it, which is the closest I've ever heard to capturing the punch of hearing a tune on a big club system. So many times I've heard a tune in an EM and thought it sounded massive, only to play it on Youtube and be disappointed by how thin it sounds in comparison.

You're right there. Always beefed stuff up and gave a richness of sound. Remember an old System-F track that when it came out sounded Anaemic in comparison.
