Those two are missing. Those are the last two that have been missing from my collection for years!

Are you correct on this?
I've googled both and it looks like José Padilla's EM from 09-07 is a repeat of his 1995 EM? Could that be true? http://www.mixesdb.com/db/index.php...-_Essential_Mix
Also the Tribal Gathering EM isn't on the EM wiki
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_o...al_Mix_episodes

It says:
1996
12 May - Tim Lennox
6 May - Dave Clarke
28 April - Goldie

To me it seems weird that Dave Clarke's EM is 8 days after the Goldie EM and 6 days before the Tim Lennox one. But that Dave Clarke EM however can be found.
Apparently May the 6th of that year was a Monday, so that EM would've been broadcasted in the night of Sunday on Monday. Instead of the then normal Saturday on Sunday night.

You say @ May the 5th a Tribal Gathering EM was broadcasted? It does fit in the timeslot but doesn't make sense with the information that the day after there was another EM.

Someone help us out? :)

I think the Dave Clarke EM is fake, it isn't Pete Tong doing the announcements and it doesn't have an intro and outro of somesort.

Ok, so then the Tribal Gathering EM is missing :)


Who will contact Radio 1 to see if they can buy the tapes or something :p

EM129 - 5th May 1996 - Tribal Gathering

Contrary to other EM listings and as far as the research shows, this mix does not exist as the actual Tribal Gathering did not take place until June of this year and there was no broadcast on this weekend
Also the Dave Clarke broadcast on the following day was not an actual EM but rather a broadcst as part of Radio One's RA-Ve day (Victory in Europe Day)

Which is backed up by
quote:
The 1996 version of the UK Tribal Gathering, took place in June at Luton Hoo, Bedfordshire with 30,000 turning up for to see sets by Leftfield, The Chemical Brothers, Black Grape, Goldie, and others.

[/edit]

I heard in Goldie's EM that Pete Tong said the tracklisting would be placed in the upcoming editions of Mixmag and Update Magazine.
If someone still has one of those editions from May / June 96 we could find out what the missing bit is.
Should be one of these:
Mixmag Issue No.60 - May 1996 - Orbital
Mixmag Issue No.61 - June 1996 - Carl Cox Rocks
sEpH
Nice found of course!!

It's very weird to music we used to listen so much, but that we have not listen for 6-7 years...!

I haven't heard the version uploaded on here, but the copy I have has incredibly awful sound quality and keeps repeating the same part of the mix. Hardkiss also plays a few downright tracks from his own label.
Mattinsanity
Fazede Idjutz - "Dust Of Life" (U Star/Other)
Onedove - "What Love [Scott Hardkiss Remix]" (London/FFRR)
God Within - "Acid Funk" (Hardkiss US)
Republica - "Ready To Go Hardkiss Mix" (RCA)
Rabbit In The Mood - "O.B.E" (Hardkiss/U.S.)
Symbiosis - "Of The Mind Of The Spirit" (Hardkiss/U.S.)
Reese Project - "Direct Me Sasha Remix" (Network)
Elton John - "Rocket Man Hardkiss Mix" (US/Rocket Records)
Grace - "Not Over Yet" (Perfecto)
Slim Morrison - "Stoned" (NYC/KGB(US))
Rollin Gear - "I Know (Beats)" (UFG)
God Within - "Rain Cry" (Hardkiss US)
Crucial Introspection - "Why Why Why"(Hardkiss US)
Future Sound Of London - "Papu NewGuinea" (Jumpin Pumpin)
The Sandels - "Feet Hardkiss Mix" (London)
Crucial Introspection - "Indian Summer" (Hardkiss US)
Boo Williams - "Snare Tappin" (Relief US)
Sheila - "Acid Kiss" (Quark US)
God Within - "The Phoenix" (Hardkiss US)
The Temptations - "Plastic Man" (Motown US)

what were the downright tracks from his own label? Don't lie, it has to be O.B.E.
SYSTEM-J
Acid Funk, that terrible remix of Elton John... I haven't listened to it for a couple of years, so I can't remember exactly which track was which. There are some nice moments, particularly the intro, but the whole thing is a whore-out of his own label and tracks.
Mattinsanity
I could understand the gripe about the two tracks but it was still a good essential mix. And the Hardkiss label is responsible for many great releases.
SYSTEM-J
And what the is that ridiculous breaks sample-rape of The End that he cross-fades into from Not Over Yet? This mix doesn't sound much better on second listen, even without the looping and bad sound quality.
Mattinsanity
dead serious perfectionist much? you gotta be f'ing kidding about the sound quality. I had no problem listening to the whole mix front to back. you must be an outcast when it comes to that complaint.

and you bring up that transition around the 61st minute. I've listened to 6 or 7 essential mixes now and a few of them have some abrupt ending to a track and immediately cuts into the next track. it must be some recording error or something. it happened in the chemical brothers essential mix.

Or they couldn't get clearance for the use of a particular song and had to edit it out.

I said without the problems. In other words, this version of the mix doesn't have the problems the old version I heard did, yet it doesn't sound any more enjoyable for that.

There are abrupt switches in these old Essential Mixes because they were recorded from the radio on cassette tapes and the tapes would invariably finish recording and need to be flipped. The transition I'm talking about isn't a tape finishing. It's clearly a fade, because you can hear the two tracks overlap momentarily.
Mattinsanity
I've listened to 50 essential mixes so far (yeah good for me, there's over 900 uploaded).

here's some ty inessential mixes people should avoid:

trentemoller (how did it get essential mix of the year?)
ashley beedle 1998 (it had 0 electronic tracks in the mix) :wtf:
armand van helden
felix da housecat
sasha 1994


my favorites:

fathers of sound
adam freeland (could be the best breakbeat essential mix)
john digweed 1995
the psychonauts
danny tenaglia
