another mix http://soundcloud.com/societe-perrier/soci-t-perrier-dj-mix-dj-q

Like the first three minutes of this so far.

huzzah

a delight to see, not least as evidence that i'm keeping vaguely up to speed with stuff :)

shame i can't listen til tomorrow

that ejeca shit is a monster btw, the new bax perhaps

This is a great mix btw. Can anyway deny the objective truth of dj q's ineffable genius at this point.

i can't find where i spoke on wookie's '2 us' from this year before but i love this for the same reasons, that lost hippy herby 4hero acid jazz neo-soul platitude 90s vibe

^this track is such a jam on the low

rev would i be correct in thinking that you're super into dj q productions but less into his mixing?

I like his mixing and it was his mixes that made me realize just how great that track is. Why?

And I've been playing his Todd Edwards mix the most, which doesn't even have any of his own stuff.

okay nm maybe it's more a function of his mixes often being talked about in the bubblers thread and his productions being talked about here so I got the impression you were more interested in one than the other.

I mean, I can understand if it looks that way cause I haven't really been paying a ton of attention to his greater UK dance wheelhouse lately (hence my lack of participation in the bubblers thread), but he's so good at what he does that he's unignorable.

basically speaking your favourite dj is here [raises arm to midriff] and q is here [raises inspector gadget style extending arm to moon]

Finally, Mr. Berman stood up, took a fresh stick of chalk, climbed onto his chair, and reached above the blackboard to draw a horizontal line on the paint. “This,” he said, after a theatrical pause, “is Milton.” He let his hand fall a few inches, drew another line, and said, “This is Shakespeare.” Another line, lower, on the blackboard: “This is Mahler.” And, just below, “Here is Browning.” Then he took a long drag on his cigarette, dropped the chalk onto the floor, and, using the heel of his black leather loafer, ground it into the wooden floorboards. “And this, gentlemen,” he said, “is you.”

aye, that set is *fantastic*

ashamed that i was sleeping on Q for so long, he really is the greatest

Still getting my head round that mix.

Taiki & Nulight - Take Me Up
Jonarr-Dotzz & Lorenzo - Rhythm Is Gonna Get You

blender!

This shift k3Y guy is great, a ukg/trap blend sounds horrible written down but is making perfect sense in Q Land (nice parallel with jackin's trappy stuff). I wonder does he play this one as well, it sounds made for him somehow
