Really happy with this one. I have spent lots of time on it with loads of edits and layering of tracks. Please look out for the mini Podcast of this later this week on www.johndigweed.com which will give you a rough idea as well as a chance to win 1 of 10 signed copies. As for the promo mix for the press, this has been edited
as well so make sure you get the full release to hear this mix in full.
You can pre- order any day now from www.recordstore.co.uk/johndigweed with the
first 200 will be signed by me.
Hope you like it as much as I do and looking forward to reading your comments

John Digweed concludes the first chapter of his Transitions series with a bang…
Since it’s launch Transitions has become one of - if not - the most anticipated releases in the compilation calendar; over the past two years its single disc, twice-yearly format has provided dance music fans a regular, contemporary snapshot of John. Now the first chapter in the Transitions’ series reaches its conclusion with the highly anticipated fourth volume.
“This was perhaps the hardest one yet,” says Digweed, “The proximity between releases meant each new volume was strongly influenced by its predecessor - as we moved from one to the other they had to relate and make sense. ”
So, a real challenge. Just how did John go about tackling it?
“I’ve developed the amount of tracks and layering over the series,” he elaborates, “And we’ve taken it to the next level with this latest volume, it’s the most intense and intrinsic yet, which meant replacements, additions, editing and a lot of time consuming assessments and re-assessments.”
Over the course of 22 tracks and 73 minutes John weaves a unique musical thread. From favourites such as Ink & Needle, Guy J and Pig & Dan through to welcome debuts from Henry Saiz, Myers Briggs or Soliquid, all are concisely constructed in the mix to the point where 3 are often playing at anyone time. Infact, due the resulting complexity, John decided to re-structure the trackmark points to better reflect the more developed passages – and so 22 records became 10 (see full tracklist below), as he elaborates, “In trackmarking this way I am able to highlight the unique qualities of the mix. Whilst it hopefully retains that signature Digweed sound, I’ve used modern production techniques to create an album that’s unlike anything you’ll ever hear me do in a club.”
And the future? “Let’s keep it about this latest volume for now,” John affirms, “Otherwise I think I’d be doing it a disservice!” We couldn’t agree more: Transitions Vol.4 is one of the most original compilations you’ll hear this year and a fitting finale to the series in its current guise…
John Digweed – Transitions Vol.4 is out 14th April 2008

| The TL looks good, but worried about the mixing and editing. I wish Digweed would stick to what he does best. I really don't want to hear 3-4 tracks playing at the same time, it gets a bit annoying after a while, and sometimes ruins the beauty of one track. |

i agree. this is getting out of hand.j/k. but this is kinda getting to be what he does best in a way now days. dj's aren't getting the credit they deserve just from playing a regular set or putting out a regular mix with good quality tracks.it's all about technicality now days so it seems.
Henry Saiz- i likie his trackies!:gsmile:
btw.. I wish Sasha would stop digging in his fine ass wife's guts and put out a cd. John has been putting one out every year. That fool is whipped!:whip: |

Layering tracks and slick mixing IS what he does best. |

| Tracklist looks amazing, really looking forward to hearing this. It makes the layering in T3 look like nothing! |
