DJ Cotts - Ravebreaks Old Skool Mix!

[@MCSmartboy]

one of my favourite mixes ever!!!

[@teriko865]

same, i keep coming back to this one

[@X17PHL]

11 years after posting I'm dancing in the kitchen to this with my kids loving the choonage, just brilliant (evilpill ;-))

[@davidcp4esob]

Temazooo locooo! Viva España! Lo mejor es el piano del principio!

[@metrophreaknokia]

I got into happy hardcore when I was a kid. Nine years old. I found this cassette tape at the airport in Seattle, WA. I later found out it was the genre RAGGAJUNGLE. There was also old skool stuff on it. Some "RUFFNECK" track by EZ Rollers was on it. Super catchy dancy lyrics. Very LA BOUCHE sounding, with happier vibe, and upbeat dancy tunes. This takes my back to when I first heard electronic music. You work miracles man. Long live the nineties! I love your mixes PLEASE MORE!

[@Interstellar83516]

Completely agree with your comment about moving backwards to move forward... For me, there is much more "feel good factor" to this type of mix than some other hardcore variants.. Back to the old school!

[@MCSmartboy]

Still one of my favorite ever mixes!!!

[@d0mi96]

What about now ?

[@shansymancy]

How about now?

[@GirlledCheeses]

And now?

[@CrunchyPaints]

Now? :P

[@oooohsnaaaap]

how about now?

[@fergalshark]

Cotts been listening to this genre of choons for a very long time now this is what i call tuneage ye buoy :-)

[@wDzGreen]

Beautiful..I miss 92 year. Peace from Poland

[@Twisted_Individual]

2018 still love hardcore breaks! Since 1996!

[@OSYofRR]

Agreed, the newer rave breaks are a bit softer but more polished and I still like em just as much. Most people are not so headstrong and the really hardcore stuff they can't get into :P Takes the vibe of original hardcore though and that is what counts :D Been a raver since 92' when I was 14 and while I don't go out raving anymore I enjoy the tuneage.

[@ShortSports1986]

Wicked mix.. Can't believe Ive only just come across it 💚✌️

[@RoC1909]

Looks like the cockpit of a plane! Glad someone can make cool tunes with this equipment because I wouldn't have a clue where to begin! Very nice job!!

[@AdummZ]

seriously that heavy bassline always gets me!!!

[@RoC1909]

All those damn buttons look like they belong in a 747 cockpit!! Absolutely crazy!! Great job on the mixing too!! Lovin it!!

[@F3Aflyer]

Simply fantastic ~ take a bow Sir.

[@alexstorr3357]

Big ups in 2020! Rave will truly never die, this is testament.

[@kazmo27]

I am in adoration of you set up and your mixing i can't stop listening to your mixes well done DJ cotts

[@djZEN187]

back in 2000/01 nu skool breaks started to sneak into the rave/dance scene. alot of the stuff sampled oldskool hardcore/jungle. Looks as though ravebreaks is the natural progression from that.

[@tomaterr20]

It hard for me to believe this mix was made almost a year ago......It feels like I had just experienced it for the first time last week.

[@gratmaleezie]

Damn Cotts, you've come a long way my friend. It's great to see you've always been an amazing guy and a great DJ. ❤

[@webbstar100]

Watched Slipmatt live at the Barn in Portsmouth, England last saturday, crazy night!!!

[@SpirosKiriakopoulos]

maybe the best piece of mix in history...

[@Koopaz]

If we had the technology 20 years ago to produce music to this quality then this is as close as you can get to what the old skool would have sounded like...... IMHO

[@aaronr112]

i love listening to your mixes, i have listened starting today, to about 2 hours worth.

[@alexstorr5511]

Still buzzing on this in 2020. Quality mix mate

[@jackh390]

One of the best mixes of old skool tunes I've ever heard!

[@KDAWGx7777777]

...this is my fav of all youre mixes.....

[@efcbluenose1]

awesome!! - i have an extensive collection of early 90s break mixes on cassette tapes and you my friend have just inspired me to get back into it!!!!

[@theipguy]

I've been following your channel for years but never came across this mix until today.... one of your best. Love it.

[@Budisgud69]

That is some setup.

[@philebyc]

[@SpirosKiriakopoulos]

The best mix ever made...

[@jaybezza1]

[@phatmike21]

I have been coming back and listening to this atleast once a week since your posted it.

[@AceJackal253]

This is just amazing to watch. You never get to see the creation process while at raves. I wish I could half of what you can with that board. Lovin' what its all about, keep the music flowin' yo!

[@clockworkuser]

ZLOTKO79 - Popieram. Mistrzostwo świata. Genialny mix paru mocnych kawałków! BOMBA JAK DLA MNIE ^^ Zmuszony byłem aż to sobie zassać, hehe.

[@alqemizzy]

Oh my. Cotts, you're a freaking DJ god.

[@TheNightMonkey]

This has to be one of my favourite Cottsy mixes, so laid back it's awesome!

[@Andy-dd2du]

Well Cool NuSKOOL .. LUV the new ENERGY and INPUTx

[@amyyourfriendsishere]

DJ COTTS THE BEST OF THE DJ ...

[@areskslan]

Simply amazing mix!

[@warcat26]

i was reading ppl comments and seen that they asked about the song that was playing at thetime it was on the vid lol i like your mixs and keep up the good work i like your back to backs with dj ravine the 30min one its crazy i always need to hear it once a day thanks for everything and the best music to rave too !! good luck to you e poppers dont od

[@tomjenssen7486]

its Edge 1 Compnded - One of my old faves. I actually collapsed one night after dancing to this at a rave back in the 90s..lol..Danced too hard :)

[@Spin1441]

Absolutely loving this style of breaks! I love the energy in these tunes. Nice contrast from the usually filthy drops you get from nu skool. Could have the two side by side all mix and it'd sound awesome.

[@andruhan]

I remember there was a mix called "Bringin' back old school" but cant't find it now. This one is also crazy one, thank you! So much energy!

[@errordivergence]

just bought the album that this mix is taken from. Good sounds mixed up with some old skool hardcore in a new style way well worth buying if you are into old skool

[@chuckphantom]

Ooh I love the "you're listening to DJ Cotts" opening

[@tomaterr20]

My favorite mix of yours, because its different

[@eaglebaize]

Dat hop thing a little after 39 min in lol It's great to see the passion!

[@DJFaydz]

Wicked stuff Cotts!!!

[@stillbuggin]

Hey mate, good to see the rave breaks being played by an aussie. I have only discovered rave breaks myself. I still play oldskool rave(12" only) and put on underground oldskool events in Sydney. Good work!

[@u4ikreign]

Some serious talent!! Haven't been able to quit listening to your mixes since I found you on here a week ago...being at work suddenly is not so bad right now!!

[@caos2caos]

your a legend u have to play in uk love to see u live would be banging

[@alexg2083]

The first drop gave me chills and had me like wooooooo! Was not expecting that lol.

[@zalewitz]

you're my hero dj cotts. I've discovered many genres through your videos

[@NapalmFlame]

Wow, cotts, that's some seriously kickarse shit. Do want. DO WANT. Someone just has to make live radio dedicated to this, it's too good to let it die before it's really lived.

[@lunam3i]

i love watching your hands. good stuff

[@BRKmaddox]

love this mix, specially with all the older beats, gives a great sound. great work cotts!! 10/10

[@DjCotts]

Hey Twista, Thanks for dropping by! Im all good thanks. Keep up the awesome work mate.

[@samikalastaja]

This rocks so hard! Thank you so much for making it!

[@michaelgrote4547]

I love this mix .

[@darius28z]

this sound is a throw back to real old rave sound earley 90s !! with a fresh twist and the beat itself is a breakbeat style kinda like old breakdance music beats. harcore and hardhouse have a diff beatstyle but its all rave music woo hoo.

[@originalshark1]

everybody knows what your talkin about when u here the mixs and certain tunes on this, DJ COTTS whack out more of this stuff as much as you can!!!! 12:10 to 12:30, listen and even try turn it off... Unreal!!!!

[@UrsinTop10]

[@ChrisTypeR]

Your technical knowledge is top-notch. I'm a DJ too, although I stick to turntables only. I spin mainly Jungle, Darkstep and Drum and Bass, but I've got an appreciation for anything when it is done well. And friend, you do it quite well. Loving your mixing, the hand-done beatdrops and phasing/modulating is great. Keep up the wonderful work, bud.

[@Machoo16]

Slipmatt is amazin, im gunna meeting him soon. :) Grate mix cotts

[@Kimck098]

Thanks mate. I would upload longer mixes but its not possible. I dislike cramming as much as possible into 10 mins. Been concentrating on recording a partial video and large length audio then uploading that. Dunno if thats a good idea?

[@latestorder]

As a lover of Dance music, I have listened to a whole lot of tracks from way back in the pioneering era, from the beginning in the underground disco clubs in the late 70's, to the rise of House and Electronic music in the 80's, and global wide spread of Dance music culture in the 90's. Your aesthetics get nurtured after listening to so many great music, great songs, that you just can't stand bad shit anymore coz it' just lacks the depth and intensity that you look for in Dance music.
