The thing I like the most about vinyl mixes like this is that it gives you an insight into the type of music that the artists themselves cherish the most. With digital, tracks are easier to obtain, and there's more incentive there to just go with the popular crowd-pleasers. But with vinyl, its pricey and takes up space, and you tend not to invest in it unless you absolutely love it. I hope he does more like this!

[@jaybarot7200]

Luke please make an in my mind tutorial for how to play as a team or duo. I request you to please do it using the set you played B2B with Hardwell, Afrojack, etc.... Please Luke......

[@bryanmartinez9435]

Yes! 👍🏼

[@phil.fujiwara]

Support that comment!

[@dachosenone5011]

I WAS JUST ABOUT TO WRITE THAT!!!!

[@ChonkyMonkey1]

Been wondering about this as well actually

[@alexandrecoquillaud4190]

What a fucking great idea !!

[@Jonsine]

RIP AVICII - If you feel like maybe share a nice Avicii moment with us.

[@nik_glas]

Er war ein großes Vorbild für mich und viele andere angehenden DJs und Produzenten, als auch für viele erfahrene Produzenten. #RIPAvicii

[@DOZEMusic]

:( #RIPAvicii

[@lokenorberg6412]

R.I.P

[@lukemccann2024]

Jon Sine Luke taught him a thing or too from what I've heard damn it's so sad

[@renjie3849]

[@collinthomas6288]

Luke you're such a genuine guy. Love the vinyl set and that you're promoting how to be the real deal.

[@pjonax]

You should play more sets like this

[@laszlocsak8006]

You never fail to impress me, the amount of quality stuff You are producing is ridiculous! Keep up the good work, keep that smile on !

[@aidancolin4784]

Thank you Luke for keeping it real and showcasing what REAL DJing is all about!!! 🎧🔊🎵 R.I.P. AVICII

[@gabeoneonegabe1]

Thank you laidback luke for this vinyl set I have waited so long for you to make a video like this and now you finally have taking it back to the old school I absolutely love it

[@rwbmusicuk]

I've got to be honest I'm a big pioneer fan boy but denon are killing it at the moment and Luke did a great mix on theese in the video, really good to showcase them :)

[@mishaoosterhuis5260]

Still very much in love with that filter house/disco sound, great to hear this Luke!

[@uncledub]

Luke, always the professional & technician, no matter what medium he uses when playing records. Shoutout

[@iGotMySwaggerBackkk]

honestly mad respect to djs that still use vinyl. this looks really hard to learn.

[@lustforlow-end6022]

@dante mojares it’s not really hard, just takes a bit of practice. It’s a lot of fun though. I’m still using vinyl. Never tried cdj’s or dvs. I was saving for a serato box but my father took the family laptop to be fixed & for some reason he told the guy to delete everything on the hard drive. That included over 600 tracks I had bought from iTunes! Now I’m saving for a laptop of my own & im going to start over.

[@thagerty]

Love these videos with the captions! Especially this one, as someone who wasn't around for the vinyl era of DJing

[@UltraSonicRecord]

I can't say i'm a big fan of techno or any of the music that was in the mix TBH but WOW did i still appreciate it! The sheer talent that's required to mix the way you did is simply incredible! That was a sick mix Luke!

[@SherwinBajao]

Love these In My Mind VLogs.

[@SebastianBlix]

Love it Luke! I have so many of these vinyl, thanks for taking me back....

[@daniellovegrove2611]

Brilliant once again, I really like the tutorials you do, please do as many as possible, I enjoy watching all the styles you put in from other DJs who have obviously inspired you.

[@sinistai.z.3622]

Loved the vinyl mixing. You almost lost it a few times but caught it. Hearing somebody play the witch doctor did it for me. One of my all time faves along with Blackout and a Day in a life. Everything actually sounded muddy but it was just how things were pressed back then with more warmth. My favorite vlog thus far. Keep up the good work.

[@Ohitsdarrel]

Suchhhhh a legend! I love seeing you mix in vinyl

[@MrUniversalus]

Amazing. This is so satisfying to watch/listen.Thanks Luke!!! More stuff like this in future please!!!

[@matissecovers5351]

RIP AVICII, one the most inspireful with a unique style. His melodys makes sing all the world, great person.

[@pramuk6]

I love everything you upload. It’s not the same ol boring stuff. Some of us actually enjoy real djs.

[@emerace9388]

Huge Respect to you! This is so crazy to think about mixing without the "digital" hotcues or waveforms! Realy good to see that some DJs didnt even forgot where the Djing is coming from 😍👌

[@hesalikes3476]

Damn!! Back at it again with those vinyls! You killin it! Iconic, legend, wig snatched.

[@ImBooblehead]

This has to be one of the most impressive videos I've ever seen on KZbin. Bravo.

[@MurdredPain]

A legendary DJ and you have all my respect.!! What a talented DJ

[@mattharris9851]

This is my favorite one by far. Very nicely done!

[@Eamonwastaken]

Yesssss more of this plz 🙌🏻

[@thedjmikeyv9319]

Thank you so much LL I really appreciate this mix!! im a turntablist DJ and this makes really happy to see pro DJs using turntables still!!! Much love and THANK YOU AGAIN!!!

[@w.a.n.s6746]

it's incredible how it changed from the "dusty" sounding vinyls to the "super ultra" clean of productions nowadays. great mix by the way Luke!

[@richardp1233]

Loved the track selection!

[@studiokom.6159]

Still djing with vinyl today, was so happy when i saw you playing your old vinyls i play all the time in my sets:D greetings from germany

[@thegreatestbiggestfella]

Your intro gets me every time brother. Keep up the good work

[@onemofficial1499]

I love these videos :D helps a lot

[@GuyWilsonVegasVIP]

Man I miss those old beats! Loved it thank you!

[@Kaotix_music]

this was sooooooo fire. i wanted to watch this just to see you do vinyl but the set was fire as hell

[@StrabaneSoundMan]

I used to have a system for keeping track of my vinyl when i used it. I had a case that was a 50/50 split for the lid and base, all unplayed tracks were in the base, kept the live tracks out on a diagonal like Luke had all his vinyl, then when a track was finished it was easy to grab the sleeve and it then went in to the lid so knew what had been played already. Thank god for digital music! Thank god for Luke!

[@dqregina6081]

Going back to your roots, playing vinyl. Great job on the mix

[@paulholla]

Man I would love to meet laidback luke, such a nice and humble guy! Keep up the good work!

[@brianangel4480]

Nice seeing the Vinyl back out Luke... Just like riding a bike. Decent throwback set, keep bangin. Brian Angel

[@TheTeomet]

With Luke on the Decks, even this kind of music becomes so interesting! Amazing, wish the rest of the other underground dj's could mix like that.

[@listentoanik]

i was just waiting for this one from more than an hour :p

[@DJMAXDNB]

this is awesome... kinda like a mini dream come true always wanted to hear luke do a filter house and techno set and mixing on vinyl. the amount of sonic content missing from the records is crazy but i kinda like it

[@blackmylo1120]

Great to see someone you admire sharing his knowledge ! Especially with Vinyls, I and this generation in general, are so used to CDJ. I was curious about how does a vinyl work ? Thanks for sharing this with us Luke, I learn a lot of things thanks to you ! Ideas of next vlogs : how are dj booked for festival/clubs ? Will you put some merch for your fans ?

[@manowarproject]

So much love and respect for you! and thank u for showing us how we kick it oldschool!!

[@thiagovivaldi]

Thanks for the knowledge shared in this video, Luke. And I'm sorry for your loss, since you probably knew Avicii way more than any of us, just fans.

[@Jenna12306]

I love all of your videos. I can watch them all day! What inspired you to start being a DJ?

[@MyJoao999]

So cool. This is a real dj. Thanks Luke for this.

[@QsoftStudios]

Luke, I am honestly so happy to see you making these videos. I got into the underground techno and the after-hours scene about 4 years ago and fell in absolute love with it. After procrastinating for a while, I bit the bullet and bought the MC7000. I have sadly found that there is a ton of elitism within the scene, and a lot of DJs don't really want to help out the new artists learn the old techniques. I'm learning a lot from just watching these videos, so keep up the amazing work! If you are ever in Vancouver BC, I highly recommend you check out Gorg-o-mish after-hours in downtown. It may bring back a bit of nostalgia :)

[@mariomaduro5084]

Nice set! Makes me wanna take out my vinyl collection and spin some oldschool stuff.

[@mrwhiteblack7986]

Loooool, the best mixing video

[@iamthatguy8207]

Real DJ'ing! Really enjoyed this on a tough day for dance music. Rip Avicii

[@walterjordan5631]

This was a really different mix to get to listen to! It sounded much more naturally crunchy than any other mix I've heard, then again I have never heard a true set done on vinyl so I may just not be used to the different medium.

[@salxworld1508]

Rip avicii. The world lost one of its most inspirational and talented individual.

[@BJAguiar]

SO amazing, LOTS of memories... =)

[@DJFusia]

Luv this kind of Musical sound bro... up the House, up the Techno, I LUV IT !!!!!

[@neffectmusic8484]

At the end of my set my cuticles would be cut from digging through the crates. I would sometimes go through 30-45 tracks in a 1 hour set. This is when DJing was fun. No time to pick up the mic and worry about people “putting their f-Ing hands up”. Thanks for this one. I wanna do a back to back vinyl set with Laidback Luke! Woooooooooooo

[@djtouchtone1]

love the set... Denon's look sick

[@voLumez]

Oh boy. This is so good. I remember this is what first got me hooked on your music. The techno/house grooves. RIP Avicii :(

[@phil.fujiwara]

Denon always glows so damn nicely ^^

[@DJFusia]

I would love to see you do more sets like this.... I LUV YOUR SET BRO !!!!

[@marialopes9365]

Lets end this bruttally lol I loved it !! Keep it up Luke !

[@amitnh12]

Great vid ! tnx luke ! pls do more "in my mind"s with live crowd

[@CJMracing28]

Always love the vids, fortunate enough to DJ a commercial club to circa 1000ppl...you have made me a much better DJ through your ‘in my mind’ mixes Thank you - keep up the great videos 👍🏼👍🏼

[@mixit313]

Great Job!! I still use vinyl to this day with slide and rotary mixers, but I do love my CDJs and Controllers also. Your track selection took me back to the good old rave days. ONE!

[@MiguelArtz]

It looks like so much fun playing on these. I definitely want to try out playing on vinyl one day.

[@saabklubbenbakrutan3296]

This is impressive. So talented. Nice to see that working pride

[@mariovieira838]

Man it's a pitty a I can only give you one 'thumbs up', becuase this deserved more. Very good. Gotta do more of these, but with 3 decks ;) Thankx for sharing

[@robertrodriguez4222]

The Witchdoctor at 16:16 is one of my all-time favorite tracks

[@menes21plus]

Greatest mix...

[@iquacksuducks5882]

That was a great demo Luke, made me miss the old vinyl days.

[@husseina-slam3265]

This takes me back to the clubs in vancouver when I first starting djing. Vancity still has all vinyl parties which are amazing.

[@mrbluezors4783]

Great to see thoose vinyls back on track! So easy to put you usb and press sync and Ya Done these days! Mr luke had to do Some good old vinyl work,Nice job man! Liked This one!

[@Martinez271992]

Gee willigers! What skill, thanks for this. Awesome as always, captions are funny 🤣

[@andrewortiz4836]

Dope mix. Miss those types of tracks.

[@andrewortiz4836]

Can you share the tracklist please?

[@robynramsey]

I feel like I’m at Twilo in NYC circa 1999! Thanks for the memories!

[@MarkEyemac]

this was really awesome! :)

[@MRTIBURONTIBURON]

Excellent creative mixing. It got my creative juices going 👊

[@MarioGomez-cw8hq]

This was really fun to watch 👍

[@GeeveGeorge]

RIP Tim (Avicii). I heard Tim started working on music and discussing them on one of Luke's forums. The world has lost a bright star. You're music will live on and inspire generations to come!

[@noahthomas9463]

RIP Avicii! You were an inspiration to me, and were really the first artist to really get me into EDM. Rest easy brother.

[@kuan831]

Still classic!! Really enjoy this clip

[@JoshLeTissier]

Incredible skills on the vinyl Luke!

[@christianozorio1997]

Solid mix And great skills man 👏

[@DJFusia]

I Luv DISCO HOUSE !!!! this tracklist is definetly on point !!!!! Well Done Sir !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@lustforlow-end6022]

Hello Luke, I enjoyed this mix a lot! Please do more old Techno sets like this, IMO Techno is the best genre of electronic music 👍

[@JazzGoldsack_joker024]

LETS END THIS BRUTALLY. Ahaha. Love this

[@peaceandlove6548]

Avicii’s song *Levels* sent this whole EDM thing into a new stratosphere. It was in a lot of ways groundbreaking. He truly had his own sound and influenced a lot of people. His importance on EDM should be respected and never forgotten. Rest In Peace, Avicii. 🎶🙌❤️

[@DJFusia]

I respect Avicii as a human being but after his levels song, that whole EDM sound went to the wasteside, I cant wait until that fad is over and Real Dance Music takes hold again such as this amazing set being laid down by Laidback Luke... Real Dance Music in full effect !!!!

[@drifter402]

EDM has now fully merged into pop. Listen to all the newest productions from all the big EDM guys. It's literally identical to the pop radio sound. If the bass drop dies and this whole STOP THE BEAT AFTER EVERY FEW BARS TO BEYONCE FANS DON'T GET BORED type shit dies then dance music can become good again. You don't hear any of that crap in what Laidback Luke is playing here. this is proper dance music

[@DJFusia]

agreed !!!!

[@judahwilliams2109]

Maybe not a Turntabilist, but definitely a great dj. Always good to see the old stuff and the In My Mind Videos, #MusicLife

[@JasonStonee]

AVICII is always in my mind, bros! And this is a good free style vinyl mixing, thanks Luke!

[@samarthdora4490]

YOU'RE IN OUR HEARTS, AVICII ❤

[@nik_glas]

RIP Legend #RIPAvicii

[@akshaykv123]

Love the Vinyls, Luke! We need a vlog on back 2 back sets! How are they different? Love the tribal edit!

[@2CelebrateMusic]

Great Mix, Luke... love you Style, technique and creativity ! 👈❤🎶 (shared promptly on my new FB Fan page)

[@symph1744]

wow you did that whole buildup! mad skills

[@DJAUDIO1]

That is so amazing that "Rise" was pressed up to 10" vinyl.

[@SuperFermel]

I'm overwhelmed

[@thebachelordj]

This is how I remember you Luke, good honest techno!

[@LeonEdwards1976]

Brilliant set Luke loved the mix and seeing your skills on the vinyl. I believe you had a connection with Avicii, sorry to hear about him passing may he rest in peace.

[@bigrippp]

Amazing highly skilled mix
