I'm listening to Laurent Garnier's rather fabooloos 2-hour mix done for BBC 1 (Broadcast 30-01-2000, 2:00 AM Radio 1, BBC ) and this got me musing rather naively : Does he actually go in with a bunch of records and fumble in the dark with 1200's, or is this pre-mixed via ProTools or (take your pick) some other computerised audio programme? Whatever - hats off, this is a great two hours worth spanning King Britt, Ken Ishii, Der Dritte Raum, Model 500, Jeff Mills, Bernd Friedmann and plenty of 'artist unknown' white labels (according to BBC's URL). Any guesses on what the track is 21 mins in??? Damn nice, but even *with* the t/listing it's hard to tell what's what. The fact that Laurent G's own most recent album has different tracks on the CD vs vinyl version makes it even more tricky ... oh, us miserable trainspotters.

I - not going to guess how Laurent does his mix, but having worked with artists that have done essential mixes in the past - lots of them do it on their own, and lots of them go in and use pro- tools or something else to clean it up with.. Seven magazine used to publish the playlist, and I thouoght the BBC site did as well. I used to work for a compilation label (I will not name them, cause we're still friends) and every single one of the DJ mix albums was cleaned up in the studio either by the DJ's themselves or an engineer working with them... I'm not even going to begin to tell you guys how Coldcut do their mixes on Monday night for Solid Steel, cuz its a trade secret...... w:) I'm listening to Laurent Garnier's rather fabooloos 2-hour mix done for BBC 1 (Broadcast 30-01-2000, 2:00 AM Radio 1, BBC ) and this got me musing rather naively : Does he actually go in with a bunch of records and fumble in the dark with 1200's, or is this pre-mixed via ProTools or (take your pick) some other computerised audio programme?
