Ain't that the truth. I remember when he played Zee 'Dreamtime'. I called Hard To Find Records to get it not realising it was still just a test press lol!
For those of you who are quite young and passing negative comments, you should rather say thank you to Sasha for sharing a past which you would never got to experience...Imagine if we all got a chance in 1995 to witness a set from 2017 ?
I just scrolled, I can't find one negative comment. Why the pre-emptive protection?. Seems all know his awesome. Relax. There is good people in this world :)
Absolute genius. Had the pleasure of being in a DJ booth with Sasha back in 1996, he's a magician and his mixing was just as impeccable back then using vinyl. Living legend.
Best boiler room of recent years, Sasha is a real master, I’ve saw him djing in NYC Twilo, Mexico City, Ibiza and even some legendary after party at Mex City, he is a total class act and truly magnificent musician and DJ, imho he is the best ever
This era is when Sasha is at his finest. Everything he touched from about 1991 to 2001 turned to gold and touched me. His new sets don't have the same magic for me. Sorry, it's decent, but nothing like 90's Sasha
I just scrolled, I can't find one negative comment. Why the pre-emptive protection?. Seems all know his awesome. Relax. There is good people in this world :)
I think we all have a similar track that introduced us to Global Underground. For me it was Der dritte raum - Hale bopp and Sashas San Francisco mix. After listening to that I instantly went out and bought as many GU CDs as I could find. Also that mix alone is why im a Sasha lad over Digweed.
Look how bloody happy Sasha looks!! Only 90s music seemed to move people this way. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love dance music still but there was something about the emotion of 90s prog and trance that took people to another world. And still does. I'd have loved to have been there for this.
Wow.. this is special. This mix needs to be 5hrs longer. The crowd don't appreciate how lucky they are, muppets. Bring in a proper mature crowd and no phones on the dancefloor policy and the roof would have been lifted off that place! Sasha never does a trip down memory lane mix, every track is pure gold, throws in a few Northern Exposure gems too. As good as it gets for the Sasha 90's crew
Being at the inception of it all, witnessing and leading the evolution of DJs role, from a simple bitmixer to a complete production, Sasha is one of the greatest virtuosos of live performance. Hard work, endless creativity and almost pathological attention to details placed him among most prominent live musicians of the genre. Many more successful and productive years to you, Sasha!!!
I first saw Sasha in 1990 when o was 17 at a Kaos event at Leeds University. Due to his knowledge of being able to play the piano, he got famous by blending records into each other that were recorded in the same key, thus making it sound seamless. He really came into his own and developed his style with Digweed at Renaissance in the summer of 92 when they had a residency there. Incredible days and obviously they were only using vinyl then but Sasha was one of the first to incorporate digital formats and computer technology into his sets. Hes influenced a lot of DJ's
At the risk of sounding like an old fart, some of these 'worlds biggest' DJ's now who fill arenas playing pre-programmed sets of cheesy euro-pap aren't fit to plug in Sasha's headphones. This guys still oozes class and knows better than anyone how to build a set with proper tunes, it's an overused expression but in the world of DJ's, he really is a living legend.
Sasha and Digweed have a big influence on me. I mix like these guys and build sets like them even though I play more techno. Is the first track Jean Michelle jarre before rabbit in the moon
what is it like to rave when you're 18 in the 90s, this is it my brothers and sisters! I'm coming at you live from Chicago Illinois, Austin Texas, and Atlanta GA! with all my heart and soul! PLUR!!!!
I think the best thing about this is that Sasha is one of the only big DJs to actually have the cajoles to play the underrated classics which so many are far too scared to play because they're not Cafe Del Mar / For An Angel or anything from 1999. There is no doubt in my mind that 1997 was the best year for Trance music ever and yet hardly anything gets played from Pre 99 these days.
plenty of well known 1999 anthems are updates or remixes of tunes from 1994-1997 period. problem i have with today's trance scene, is that we are now on the 10th round of remixes and nothing comes close to the original productions from the 90s.
Why have I only just discovered this epic set of a genius at work,Sasha back in the Day,.. omg you had to be there and he still sounds just as awesome now💯👍💥😜
Alexander Coe aka Sasha PLEASE create more classic sets. It’s amazing to see all the built up skill put into older songs he used to play over 20 years ago
Wish sasha would do a gig like this but have an over 35's door policy. I feel too old to be out clubbing these days but would defo love to see Sasha again before he calls it a day.
go and see him. I'm 40 and went to see him im Leeds at Mint club last year. The crowd was mostly over 35s anyway. He was incredible and the crowd was lovely. you wont regret it
@@Hazman79 I'm 48 and have seen Sasha in LA, Miami and Toronto 4 times in the last 3 years. Not planning to slow down anytime soon. Would love to see him in Europe.
From a DJ that always looks forward, so refreshing to see him dust off some great 90's tunes, these were staples of Sasha sets in the late 90's. Fantastic mix (although the anilating rhythm sample got a bit boring). Would have loved to have seen him break the vinyl out or maybe even drop some early 90's def mixes.Also great to see 2 hooj releases in an hour set, shows how influential the label was.
Sasha is always pushing and keeping the progressive moving year after year..him and John digweed are the 2 best djs by a country mile. Both in there 50's selling out every venue wherever they go. 30 years on and still the biggest players. Look at all your Jeremy Healeys seb Fontaines tall Paul's, they are still playing the same sets from the 90s to b-list festivals. So this rare classic set from sasha is beautiful
To come from behind laptops to actually fighting the decks is more enjoyable for me to watch . Who cares if theres a cpl of iffy bits just shows hes human sasha enjoyin it too crack on love this 👍👍👍👍
hes such a tripper i used to see him now and again in different phases of my life in different country's the first renaissance the absolute masterpiece with digweed in ireland then in the north of England for norther exposure a masterpiece and the twilo in newyork were he was monthly resident at the time for the global underground stuff the club was pumping
Genius. nuff said edit : god when Joey Beltram - Energy Flash comes in....just bliss. Great piece of American early techno. they hammered this at the Hacienda
Sasha isn’t simply playing tracks and D’jing here,clearly he is doing creatively a lot more than just that! He is in the constant process of engineering his own customised soundscape Loops,sampling edits etc on the fly eg:Live remixing!
in this particular set he's not doing any live remixing buddy......... but people forget how much skill that building a set takes, ie just playing the songs, but knowing when and what to play.
the mix he does with energy flash,MIND BLOWING.ive got a good few SHELLYS tapes with energy flash on but NONE off them are as good as this one,still the best dj in the world,UNTOUCHABLE.😉
Where did you go to Renaissance? Was it at the Cross in Kings Cross?? Think I had my first experience of him there in about 98, was hooked for the next decade
Saw him & Digweed , Homelands , Aberdeen 2001 He was on @ 7.30 due to a line up change. The man is still an utter master of his craft He still builds mixes like '95 Sasha , just the techinology is different now ............................ PS , i'm still an old skool vinyl head .................. MONNNNNNNNNN SSSAAAAAAASSSSSSSHHHAAAAAA !!!!!!
aye theres been some great sets from sasha from the 90,s but his music now is amazing the young are loving his style now i was in scotland 2 years ago at the rhumba and the younger generation loved him he was rocking
Wow wow wow wow. Some of the old tunes here are top drawer. Tune from 49 onwards. Northern exposure 2. Have played they particular tune and the build up so many times and I mean blasted it in the car and in the house. Belter. Look at Sasha smiling from 50m15sec. He knows what’s coming and it’s legendary on NE2. Magic stuff. Legend.
Seen Sasha many times and whilst he might not have the consistency or mixing ability of a Digweed or a Howells but when it's peak hour in a great club, great system, great lights, up for it crowd and he's giving you exactly what you want and he is just having one of those special nights he really can't be beaten :)
I was kind of expecting an early Sasha type of set.....piano anthems and vocals. I went off him a bit after 1995 when he went all trancey. Ah well...they guy is still a house legend in my eyes.
I would've preferred an overhead deck shot of when the record skipped during his 1999 into 2000 set at Ali Pali. It worked out okay. But i love seeing top DJ's adjust and work under pressure.
I agree. A little mistake here or there but pulled off gives mixes spontaneity and makes you realize it is live. Plus as a DJ if you never make mistakes you are playing it too safe, there are certain mixes and tricks that a lot of DJ'S would never try or pull off.
Call me old fashioned, but I’m ole school, and it’s the vinyl and decks for me. I know there’s some bangers of tunes still being produced, and mixed, but the vinyl brings something special. My 1st decks were CAMs belt driven 😂 had some belting after parties with those old things. Obviously the “IN” DJs at the time had Techniques. Some of the vinyl collections I’ve seen over the years are awesome. I’m NOT knocking “DJ-ing” as it is now, but there definitely was a special element when you heard beats drop in and mixing
Him and Seaman at Shelley's in Stoke in....1990. A small, legendary and slightly "rough" club. Disagreeing drug gangs from Manchester and Birmingham (and the police) eventually ruined it. Which was sad. Many great nights there. Lived 10 mins walk away...which was useful ! P.S. "Disagreeing" is a UK term for extreme violence .
My friend used to tour a lot of big DJ's back in the day. He always tells me Sasha used to hit it the hardest. He was on a tour of Australia and Sasha had necked a bunch of pills at the gig (which me smashed) and had a pocketfull when he went back to his hotel. My mate went to Sasha's hotel the next day to check on him and found him in the bathtub which was filled with tinned spaghetti. He was still high as balls and said he was swimming around in a tub of spaghetti because it felt so amazing on his body. I'm keen to try it tbh.
my mates mate was working with him in an office IT job, he did go off music grid for a while. im surprise to see him djying again. i remember listening to northern exposure on the london underground. good memories :)
Yes, that is what i was wandering too - every big dj was on boiler room or mixmag, EXCEPT John Digweed . It is strange isn't it? Like John doesn't want to show people his magic :-)
Did you see his face when LSG was playing!! He was buzzing, probably reminiscing the times when the crowd roared like a football crowd when he dropped that tune in the 90’s. I bet even he wishes that he could play in front of a 90’s crowd, even if it was for one last time. Haha I remember queuing up at any club venue he played at. Long long queues!
Top DJ, Been following him for 35 years. Been inspired by him many times. That (Annihilating ) loop went on for most of the set which was repetitive though. He seems a bit chilled. Still N.0.1 of progressive house.
yeah its a common thing. Unfortunately theres ZERO skill in DJing these days meaning most DJ's (even Sasha here) have nothing better to do than destroy great songs with samples, effects and filters... its not like they do anything else like beat matching anymore.... over 90% of DJing these days is standing around looking busy... its fucking boring to be honest....Take a look a FUNDACION album... AWESOME songs but a mix CD with so much overkill of sampling and effects that it is impossible to listen to in parts.
Back in the day we'd go through every Sasha mix and hunt down every single track he played and incorporate into our sets. He was THE STANDARD.
Ain't that the truth. I remember when he played Zee 'Dreamtime'. I called Hard To Find Records to get it not realising it was still just a test press lol!
🤛
You weren't doing that in 1989 ;)
He played the best tunes
Best you mean
For those of you who are quite young and passing negative comments, you should rather say thank you to Sasha for sharing a past which you would never got to experience...Imagine if we all got a chance in 1995 to witness a set from 2017 ?
Iaindorr everyone's an expert mate! It's quite comical really.
Sasha been of top of his game for 25 years plus... 👍
true that #youngin' I saw him in 01 in Charlotte NC - been tranced out since and my passion is #drum& #Bass#RSPCT
I agree 90s were an epic era....more mixes like this
F the kids of today. They'll understand later.
Listen to this guy, Sasha is a pioneer....
Young ones haven't a clue. Sasha is one of the best DJs in the world & Digweed. All you have to do is listen to Northern Exposure - unreal
suew81 the first northern exposure is a mixing masterpiece 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Fully fully agree and I follow this now for 30 years
I just scrolled, I can't find one negative comment. Why the pre-emptive protection?. Seems all know his awesome. Relax. There is good people in this world :)
Trust me I'm 19 and I have full awareness
Some say the digweed and sasha renaissance CD is better, I must admit I prefer it, to northern exposure but they are both pure class
Absolute genius. Had the pleasure of being in a DJ booth with Sasha back in 1996, he's a magician and his mixing was just as impeccable back then using vinyl. Living legend.
How was he that night? He was young. Still the humble genius he’s always been?😊
Best boiler room of recent years, Sasha is a real master, I’ve saw him djing in NYC Twilo, Mexico City, Ibiza and even some legendary after party at Mex City, he is a total class act and truly magnificent musician and DJ, imho he is the best ever
This era is when Sasha is at his finest. Everything he touched from about 1991 to 2001 turned to gold and touched me. His new sets don't have the same magic for me. Sorry, it's decent, but nothing like 90's Sasha
Youth of today will never understand. Sasha at Shelleys, The Eclipse, Renaissance, Up Yer Ronson etc. .
Great memories
I remember very well, old fart here!!!
I just scrolled, I can't find one negative comment. Why the pre-emptive protection?. Seems all know his awesome. Relax. There is good people in this world :)

raginraven31 that waters track tho...still remember it from tiestos magik series
Tracklist is in the comments
Taucher: Waters was a track brought to me by Nick Warren on the Global Underground sets. Great tune.
I think we all have a similar track that introduced us to Global Underground. For me it was Der dritte raum - Hale bopp and Sashas San Francisco mix. After listening to that I instantly went out and bought as many GU CDs as I could find. Also that mix alone is why im a Sasha lad over Digweed.

He's having an absolute ball! Check out how he reacts for like 30 seconds after this: ruclips.net/video/_Z160BlNJmU/видео.htmlm6s
Yep - you nailed there
Archibald Leach - you’re totally right. I’d meant 90s dance music compared to stuff now
the great thing about that period was that everything was so fresh, new sub-genres were being created all of time
Also: better drugs in the 90s
The entirety of underground dance music stands on the shoulders of the OGs. Sasha is about as OG as you get. Mad mad respect! ❤
Such a lifeless crowd of people! Miss this era. Sasha was a genius! L.S.G Netherworld (vinyl cut), what a track!
evokes some memories that one
The mix into it from Taucher is sensational!
Sasha played L.S.G netherworld playing B2B with Digweed at Privilege Ibiza 2017 and it was absolutely sensational.
Spot when one tune starts and one tune ends?
No didnt think so. Thats Sasha. Ultimate blender, djs dj.
Diggers, Howells and Burridge are the utimate mixers. They could mix oil and water
A masterclass, if i was a dj I’d be as technical as him. Honest
50:17 Sasha is enjoying the craic, back to the good old days
The mixing of Beltram Energy Flash and at least two other tracks is amazing
Wow.. this is special. This mix needs to be 5hrs longer. The crowd don't appreciate how lucky they are, muppets. Bring in a proper mature crowd and no phones on the dancefloor policy and the roof would have been lifted off that place! Sasha never does a trip down memory lane mix, every track is pure gold, throws in a few Northern Exposure gems too. As good as it gets for the Sasha 90's crew
His 1995 Radio 1 Essential Mix is THE epitome of his mixing prowess….NOTHING COMES CLOSE 👌
Being at the inception of it all, witnessing and leading the evolution of DJs role, from a simple bitmixer to a complete production, Sasha is one of the greatest virtuosos of live performance. Hard work, endless creativity and almost pathological attention to details placed him among most prominent live musicians of the genre. Many more successful and productive years to you, Sasha!!!
Olexandr Krinochkin WELL SAID!🙏
I was 15 years old in '92, first experienced Sasha through the seminal Renaissance and Essential mix CDs. What a time for music. just blew my mind.
No dancing, hands waving and jumping around like a modern social media DJ - just pure class mixing of the highest level with class tunes 🙂
100% with you
I have listed to Sasha since 1989 and his been my favourite DJ all my life his the soundtrack to my life love him
energy flash still sounding good all these years on....magic....
Not to mention his mix into it was pretty much perfect. Annihilating indeed. :)
timeless track, could drop it now no problem
mylesms48 clever noodling with it too
What’s the title of that annihilating track I must find that on vinyl
@@odysseyorchids9507 major north and it's on polyester recs
Min 35 made cry. I was 20 first time I heard this track in a good old fashion tape looking at the clouds and just being happy ❤️❤️❤️
That sounds like bliss , he often makes me cry with his tune selection
I feel you. ❤
I first saw Sasha in 1990 when o was 17 at a Kaos event at Leeds University. Due to his knowledge of being able to play the piano, he got famous by blending records into each other that were recorded in the same key, thus making it sound seamless.
He really came into his own and developed his style with Digweed at Renaissance in the summer of 92 when they had a residency there.
Incredible days and obviously they were only using vinyl then but Sasha was one of the first to incorporate digital formats and computer technology into his sets. Hes influenced a lot of DJ's
Brilliant days. Kaos nights then Soak with Graeme Park on a midweek Tuesday night at The Warehouse
The best session I ever seen
Watch this 1000 times
Masterpiece. Sasha is amazing. DJ-ing on incomparable level. Journey
Zoe - in my opinion, one of the best 90s progressive tracks ever. Love that tune.
29:00 reminds me Madonna - Ray of Light (Sasha Twilo Mix) also.
At the risk of sounding like an old fart, some of these 'worlds biggest' DJ's now who fill arenas playing pre-programmed sets of cheesy euro-pap aren't fit to plug in Sasha's headphones. This guys still oozes class and knows better than anyone how to build a set with proper tunes, it's an overused expression but in the world of DJ's, he really is a living legend.
So true
🕺🕺🕺🕺🕺
He's a living Welsh legend
Amazing could it b any better put👏
Sasha and Digweed have a big influence on me. I mix like these guys and build sets like them even though I play more techno. Is the first track Jean Michelle jarre before rabbit in the moon
what is it like to rave when you're 18 in the 90s, this is it my brothers and sisters! I'm coming at you live from Chicago Illinois, Austin Texas, and Atlanta GA! with all my heart and soul! PLUR!!!!
And after over 25 years of listening to Sasha I am still blown away. The word legend is appropriate here when so often it is used too easily
I think the best thing about this is that Sasha is one of the only big DJs to actually have the cajoles to play the underrated classics which so many are far too scared to play because they're not Cafe Del Mar / For An Angel or anything from 1999.

@@markedwards9874 laptoppery lol, love it 😂
2023! Still coming every week to listen to this gem 🔥🔥🔥🔥
He never plays old songs never mind whole sets , this is a total one off , fucking awesome !!
Sasha and digweed last Friday of the month at Twilo, best music ever spun
Sasha is always pushing and keeping the progressive moving year after year..him and John digweed are the 2 best djs by a country mile. Both in there 50's selling out every venue wherever they go. 30 years on and still the biggest players. Look at all your Jeremy Healeys seb Fontaines tall Paul's, they are still playing the same sets from the 90s to b-list festivals. So this rare classic set from sasha is beautiful
To come from behind laptops to actually fighting the decks is more enjoyable for me to watch . Who cares if theres a cpl of iffy bits just shows hes human sasha enjoyin it too crack on love this 👍👍👍👍
I don't know about y'all but I getting it during this set. I had to get up and dance! Sasha is legendary.
esther589 indeed he is !!
He'll never get the recognition he deserves, but i think he's fine with that.
@@steveswan5192 huh? Him and John are considered two of the best DJs to ever live. They're well known as all time legends.
Throwing myself up and around…. GROOVALICIOUSNESS! ~~ 2.0
Sasha is and always will be my fav dj his mixing is timeless seemless he still gives me the chills oh I'm rushing to your mixes Sasha is my GOD!!!!
Was HARD into tech when these tracks were around. Sasha has always been on point. So many good memories of those times
hes such a tripper i used to see him now and again in different phases of my life in different country's the first renaissance the absolute masterpiece with digweed in ireland then in the north of England for norther exposure a masterpiece and the twilo in newyork were he was monthly resident at the time for the global underground stuff the club was pumping
Genius. nuff said
edit : god when Joey Beltram - Energy Flash comes in....just bliss. Great piece of American early techno. they hammered this at the Hacienda

Bs. He is just blending em together. He is great at building a set. That requires way more than just looping bits and applying effects here and there.
GLOBAL UNDERGROUND.... IBIZA 2.0........... Amazing set.. 🕺🏽💃🏻🎧
Sasha’s 90’s sets are always purely rockin ones chunky baseline beats with dynamic tempo and are rhythmically superb👍
Britain’s Number 1 Most Wanted DJ Sasshhhaaaaa on the decks. Back in the day😀😎
Legend still going strong been at the top of his game for 30 years , pleasure to of witness his uprising
the mix he does with energy flash,MIND BLOWING.ive got a good few SHELLYS tapes with energy flash on but NONE off them are as good as this one,still the best dj in the world,UNTOUCHABLE.😉
We used to see/hear Sasha every week during the Renaissance and Venus days..... never knew how spoilt we were... he still is “THE SON OF GOD”
Where did you go to Renaissance? Was it at the Cross in Kings Cross?? Think I had my first experience of him there in about 98, was hooked for the next decade
Saw him & Digweed , Homelands , Aberdeen 2001

PS , i'm still an old skool vinyl head .................. MONNNNNNNNNN SSSAAAAAAASSSSSSSHHHAAAAAA !!!!!!
Love it. I feel like Sasha is never this animated. He is super into this set (for obvious reasons).
Watching Sasha enjoying so much these tracks makes me bliss
Say no more ❤
Took me a while to get here but thank you.
aye theres been some great sets from sasha from the 90,s but his music now is amazing the young are loving his style now i was in scotland 2 years ago at the rhumba and the younger generation loved him he was rocking
I can feel the acid in the back of my throat and I haven't had a tab in 20 years!
Acid doesn’t taste like a think you prob took pcp 😂
😄😄😄😄👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
You never took blotters in the 80s then? They had a hard kick taste when coming up, he's telling the truth.
I have heard this more and more in my life and soul...journey and journey 🕊🗝🫶
i was lucky to seeing his live very long time ago in Hong Kong......unforgettable
Good old day, Good old RAVE
That must have been wild
Wow wow wow wow. Some of the old tunes here are top drawer. Tune from 49 onwards. Northern exposure 2.

Ahhhh....mid 90's Sasha! Memories
Ray M yea lol
YES! Class is timeless 🙏 Lots of gems in this ❤ Sasha still got it after all this time 🫶

He was on a tour of Australia and Sasha had necked a bunch of pills at the gig (which me smashed) and had a pocketfull when he went back to his hotel. My mate went to Sasha's hotel the next day to check on him and found him in the bathtub which was filled with tinned spaghetti. He was still high as balls and said he was swimming around in a tub of spaghetti because it felt so amazing on his body. I'm keen to try it tbh.
cromulentparty thank you so much for bringing this story into my life.
my mates mate was working with him in an office IT job, he did go off music grid for a while. im surprise to see him djying again. i remember listening to northern exposure on the london underground. good memories :)
??? what? the only time he stopped djing was when he had an ear injury and we're talking months here lol.
lol id like to think that was true with the spagheetti
Aye, I remember it well; it was the month I travelled from the UK to NYC specifically to visit TWILO. Gutted doesnt quite cover it.
wow! we need mr Digweed in the Boiler Room, too :D
also it's great that Sasha has a track named Boilerroom on his Airdawndagger album released in 2002
It's entitled 'Boileroom', not 'Boiler Room' :P
unitedcolors , my bad ;)
snkssd Bloodlock is my favourite track off that LP
Yes, that is what i was wandering too - every big dj was on boiler room or mixmag, EXCEPT John Digweed . It is strange isn't it? Like John doesn't want to show people his magic :-)
Smithy Smith ye bloodlock peaks, its more james holden tho. wavy gravy was my fav off of that lp for sure.
This guy really is a class above anyone else for me. Still can't believe I've never seen him
Did you see his face when LSG was playing!! He was buzzing, probably reminiscing the times when the crowd roared like a football crowd when he dropped that tune in the 90’s. I bet even he wishes that he could play in front of a 90’s crowd, even if it was for one last time. Haha I remember queuing up at any club venue he played at. Long long queues!
CakeSniffer ! Oliver Lieb produces top notch sounds and remixes eg:Push Universal Nation(O.Lieb mix) is a pearler of a crankin tune!🔊🎵💎👍
one of the most special moments of my life, when i shake hand with Oliver Lieb, the magician of electronic music
Ok ... Sasha in the mix and Trainsppoting in the visuals ....... Is this my bedroom ???
Top DJ, Been following him for 35 years. Been inspired by him many times. That (Annihilating ) loop went on for most of the set which was repetitive though. He seems a bit chilled. Still N.0.1 of progressive house.
He's 47 Nob'ead
I see ya. I meant 25.
yeah its a common thing. Unfortunately theres ZERO skill in DJing these days meaning most DJ's (even Sasha here) have nothing better to do than destroy great songs with samples, effects and filters... its not like they do anything else like beat matching anymore.... over 90% of DJing these days is standing around looking busy... its fucking boring to be honest....Take a look a FUNDACION album... AWESOME songs but a mix CD with so much overkill of sampling and effects that it is impossible to listen to in parts.
Thanks for the upload. Such a cleaver set from tunes back in the day 👍
I wish I could have experienced this live back in the 90s but i didnt exist back then!
Paganini Traxx - Zoe
Sasha banging this out in Kellys Portrush late 90's will live with me till the day i swap the rave for the grave
20:16 Joey Beltram “ Energy Flash “ 30 years later and still sounds fresh.
NO POINT GOING SLEEP NOW I STAY AWAKE AND LISTEN!! THANKS!!
This makes it all worthwhile sir. ty
and he's never taken a pill in his life! amazing
50:12 PURE nostalgia, right there.
You got some trained ears my friend. Definitely the best part in this set.
You don't forget those soundz!!!!
Standard no ….. absolute unique unmatched undefinable fluid beauty should about do it
the mix he does off beltrams energy flash is just mind blowing.
I never heard Sasha playing Energy Flash in my 30 years listening to him!!😮😮
Sasha = Genius
Props to the guy in the white t-shirt. He gets it. :)
Yep!

47:05 best track in my life ever 1998 Cream at Amnesia playing Sasha. L.S.G Netherworld
This reminds me of Hacienda. I've never been to Hacienda and I was not born yet at that time though.
稲本 I went there once. basically a warehouse with an elevated dj booth. Amazing place.
稲本 nah! He'd be playing italian piano house
This was after Hacienda I think. But I wasn't around at that time either
Glad he’s bringing the classics back on this set
On the night nobody could ever touch him. Spent many a night lost in his music!
