DJ mixes that were game changers, basically.

June Miller's 2008 Experimental mix (ushered in the click & bass minimalist Exit records style of D&B)
Excision's Shambhala mix
FabricLive 37
Addison Groove's FACT Mix
etc


That sort of thing. For better or worse, for Dubstep or other. Suggestions? Wanting to build up my collection of the classics in case they are any I've been sleeping on.

coldcut - Journeys by dj?

standard


Richie Hawtin - Dex, EFX & 909

When he still made techno with balls instead of beards.

For me personally, excision's darkside dubstep

Allstars Vol 6 also

Only 7 mins long but: The Adventures of Grandmaster Flash on the Wheels of Steel

DMZ @ John Peel Tribute as well maybe? Surely was one of the first times that their sound got such major airplay

Slimzee, Dizzee and Wiley Sidewinder
The first Swamp81 show on rinse was pretty influential as well

DJ Hype cutting up some serious breakbeats and ushering in a sound that would eventually become Jungle.

The 2 Docwra tracks on that mix....

Good thread Wub. Have to add:

- The Final Ruffage Sessions (4 hours). Before there was even a discussion of the house/dubstep crossover, the Hessle crew had already been bridging the gap for years.
- Daft Punk Essential Mix (1997). Anyone who's spent time with this will tell you, it's unforgettable.
- Ron Hardy Tapes http://www.gridface.com/features/ron_ha ... lists.html
- Old, old, Kode9 Rinse sets that I can't manage to find.

I'm most definitely with you on the Ron Hardy Tapes as they were instrumental in the birth of House music.
When i saw this thread the first thing that came to mind was Daft Punks Essential mix, but i think only because it's such an amazing mix. I'm not sure if it's seminal, maybe it encouraged House producers to go back to more oldschool Chicago styles. It is the best essential mix of all time so I'm sure its quality encouraged other DJ's to put in more effort.

Oh and a most marvellous thread Wub

Listening to One in The Jungle before going out to some of my first Jungle nights was amazing. I was only 14, i felt part of something massive and i guess looking back i was. The scene really blew up around the time the BBC started with these shows, at one point i was going to 3 nights a week in Notts.
