UNKLE - Essential Mix [2002-01-06] bbc radio one. james lavelle

[@slipgatecentral]

20 years later, still one of the best dj sets ever performed. Doesn’t sound outdated at all. Even shitty recording quality gives it sort of flavor. #Oldschoolcool

[@4C1DT3ST]

Fucking genious....

[@TripLikeIDo86]

This mix defined my sophomore year of high school. I remember downloading the show overnight on 56k in Texas.

[@kevincreel3944]

Nothing like when one of those big 56k downloads actually completed! Cheers!

[@ERINFOODS]

56k 😁👍

[@d3drummerboy]

Simpler times I remember the 64kb downloads from the 90s dial up days, downloading a song felt like a major accomplishment

[@anthonypaulnoble]

what the hell :D yall listen to UNKLE in texas?!

[@philiplevins6702]

54 years young...IMHO one of the very best mixes/musical compilations I've had the pleasure of absorbing/listening to...Deep....Gold indeed...enjoy brothers and sisters...peace x

Unkle and ColdCut were very inspirational to me. When I lived in LA I used to walk whilst listening to "Journeys by DJ" from Coldcut. I was the nobody who walked in LA and yes, this is great.

[@FastForwardToFlow]

This is not just a set. This is a MOOD.

[@dirkdiggler5902]

One of the greatest mixes I’ve _ever_ heard... and I’ve heard a tonne of ‘em.

[@nikolaimelnikov6477]

Simply the epic best set of 00’s.❤

[@nwshirts]

That 47 minute mark when the Tomorrow Never Knows sample kicks in. Gets me every time

[@rytisgervickas7892]

Still is mind blowing,like it was 20 years ago.

I have circumnavigated the globe for the last 48 years, with this on loop repeat for the last 18+ years....its fractal, its the planke length of perfection...cheers fella

[@sumitino]

Can confirm 2023 tape is still rolling…

[@simondurkin8593]

This is utterly amazing. So many layers and sounds that it feels a little chaotic but also cathartic and complete at the same time. Beautiful.

[@ttaxBen]

Been listening to this for 20 years. Top mix

[@rogeranderson1744]

I've lost count how may times Ive played my of this mix - It needs to be played at the "Tate modern" on a constant loop - Its just a piece of Art ..........

[@thejoydivision8]

I 1,000,000% agree. "Blast that shit, turn that whole shit up!!!" What a face melter!!!

[@chickenfooker74]

Touche.

[@gelogmarine]

that DMX/ Tears for Fears Mash-up was brilliant (Shout vs Who We Be)

[@stefanomeloni8731]

Yeah, from that point I am totally into the mix!

[@reezalrosli3104]

Exactly! My workout pump song now haha

[@AngryLotus]

It is pretty good, but it's no Thomas Gonna Give It To Ya. :)

[@BrunoBucci]

I wonder, at what moment did the idea arise. Let me play DMX with Tears for Fears and see what happens!

[@generaseven]

@@BrunoBucci lots of coke?

[@matthenley3886]

Quite possibly the best essential mix ever, forward thinking, eclectic but without being too far up it’s arse. Absolute genius

[@rlret2034]

Thank you!

[@AlessandroCardano]

Leftfield x The Doors still is an unbeatable combo two decades later. =One Love= -A

[@mg6904]

Working from home, with construction sounds all over my building. With this when I put my headphones and I can finally focus on the code in front of me. Awesome find of the mix. Thank you.

[@zerotv78]

That was I was exactly was telling to my wife today, how effective this mix is to get focus and code for a straigforward 2 hours session.

[@FastForwardToFlow]

I've been coding on this since 2005. Phenomenal set for coding indeed.

[@thenewhighpriestofjupiter6305]

This , Portishead, Chemical Brothers , Dave Clarke ,David Holmes might be the absolute cream of the crop Essential Mixes. What a time to be alive.

[@geekylucas]

This mix is legally old enough to drink in Australia. Still one of the best. James Lavelle, I salute you. 🍻

This mix would ignore all LAWS

[@billymkirkwood4956]

I caught this and recorded it from 34 mins 42 seconds when its original release back in 02.. still great now by far a Pair of DJ's set apart from the rest of the field... James Lavelle and Richard File. 😎👌

[@scottsaul]

I love the essential mixes which take you on a journey like this!

[@earthluma]

o hai comment from today!

[@BrunoBucci]

Richard Ashcroft voice is amazing. LONELY SOUL is one of the best songs because hes voice. Like The Test from Chemical Brothers with his voice. What voice!

[@craichead333]

Hey Bruno, yeah Longley Soul is pretty special but Rabbit In You Headlights on Psyence Fiction completely overwhelms Ashcroft song. It's typical Yorke, questions the very fabric of modern society. Art in its highest form.... for me anyway, 🤔

[@craichead333]

Sorry, monile typo, Lonely Soul 😆

[@generaseven]

@@craichead333 I like the guitar version of Rabbit... it adds some somber tones. I can't remember which mix it's on. I think it's on the UNKLE/ Scratch Perverts mix?

If Pete Tongs' mind is blown....it must be worth a listen ♥️

Been looking for a decent upload of this (probably my favourite essential mixes of all time) for over twenty years now and still just as mind boggling as when I recorded it live on my cassette recorder the night it first aired. 🎉thank you for sharing this with us and am definitely 💯 going to look up more mixes by James lavelle as he always seems to be able to bring something fresh to the table and I believe is one of (unkle sounds especially) the most innovative dj’s ever in any form of edm. Godbless and thanx again for bringing back this brilliant piece of work 😊
