Album

Northern Exposure is the second mix album by British DJ duo Sasha & John Digweed. The British package contains both CDs, whereas the American only has the first disc. In 2013, the album was certified silver in the UK. The duo proved themselves as DJs long ago, so here, instead of selecting a series of unmissable club hits, they go for the road less taken with tracks by Voyager, Delta Lady, Delerium, and one by Sasha himself.

lol too right. My own copy of this, whilst in ok but well played condition, has John Digweed's signature on the front of it (and I've a signed Northern Exposure poster too). I wonder if it would go for more money ;-)

Who really cares if the North album was mixed on computer or turntables or thoughts and prayers? It contains a legendary selection of progressive electronic music that still gives me chills 20 years later...until those three house songs in the middle! It is truly jarring to experience some of the most engaging and beautiful sounds ever made in techno music (first 5 tracks), only to have some truly out-of-place vocal songs come along to make you want to rip your headphones off! It recovers somewhat before the end, but it's a little painful getting there! Oh well, I would argue most DJs have put songs on mixes that they wish they could take back years later...I wonder how Sasha & Digweed feel about this one?

Uaha

dr2016 It matters that they let everyone believe they did it themselves on decks at a time when most people didn't even know that you could use software to make a fake mix like this one. Real dj's don't lie. They mix LIVE. Some people have standards even if you don't. ...and some people are uppity, self-entitled, pedantic tossers.

This classic mix is absolutely timeless, and till this moment nobody could do the same. Ok let's be honest, the main winner card of the mix that so many styles were absolutely new and fresh this time,so much people never met them before , now times harder to show something new,everybody knows tech,deep,house,techno etc. but the mixes are not talks only about music,but selection and mixing. And S & D made it how others couldn't ever beat. This mix is absolutely a prophecy for wannabe DJ's and everyone who loves electronic music.

Hǻrley Quinn

Oh yeah? Well before this one? Please give me names of those. I'm genuinely curious and would like to listen to them.

Plenty of dj's made real mixes as good as this on turntables well before this was released and not on a computer like this FAKE mix was done.

I think I have to try and add some balance to some suprisingly poor recent reviews of this seminal mix. I raved in the 90's, we had mixtapes of our favorite DJ's (usually poorly recorded with no track listings). Imagine that Millenials?Then came the mix CD. Renaissance 1 was the benchmark - a classic to virtually all house heads. Unfortunately the flood gates then opended, literally 100's of mix CD's like ministry annual 34 or trance anthems 76, with the same tunes and bland mixes - you get my point.This came out in 96 - I had been buying tunes for years but the depth of originality in this mix was breathtaking. Yes Im a Sasha fan, but this mix was so well crafted (those that slam the fact it was not created on 1210's should look at the talentless DJs of the last 10 years with their laptops and shut up). The mix was fresh and so different to everything else out at that time. S & D were ground breaking. We are all different I still believe that musically this is perhaps the best soundscape on a mix CD I have ever heard. If you dont like it fine, go back to listening to Capital FM and buying yer tunes from ITunes!!

Jogrnd

Please enlighten us with these real good dj's before this fake mix instead of spamming on this board.

You obviously just hadn't heard any really good dj's before this fake mix. Pity.

Snowskin

I don't know anything about mixes or mixing and I'm sure its flawless and groundbreaking whatever bullshit people are saying but its about the music and for me the music is dead dull.I bought this for £35 as people raved about it but perhaps its of its time as I find it well boring and lifeless. Have listened couple times and am losing the will to live. Someone tell me where my ears are going wrong, looks like a bad case of emperors new clothes?Maybe try it again when I'm pissed.

Waiso

See my comments above - i think you might have been pissed when you left your review.

IGOT

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. 10 more words.

Anarawield

The "mixing" on this was done totally in Pro Tools so it's not impressive in retrospect. They fooled us all. Anybody can edit and overlay beats together using software. This was not done on decks in the classic dj sense. Stop mythologising this cd. It's not real. They've said so.

Kigul

Can you please name some mixes that sound this well on live turntables? I would genuinely love to listen to them!

Tamesya

Booj1Boy Yes, we're aware of this by now, and many still consider it to be a classic. It's still a great listening experience today. I didn't say it wasn't a good compilation and you shouldn't try to speak for EVERYONE. It makes you look like an idiot.

Whiteflame

Souvlaki101 who cares? This was an epic release despite how it was made. It still takes a great deal of insight to visualize these tracks in ones head before either stepping up to the mixing board or computer . Regardless, these two were pioneers in releasing what is now defined by most to be an important release in this genre. I don't care that you don't care. If you don't like the truth that's your problem. They didn't do anything pioneering or unique in this "mix". Everything they did on this compilation had been done before by true pioneers who actually did their mixes live on turntables not on a computer with editing software. It WOULD have been epic as you say if they had been able to do it live to tape instead of just letting everyone believe they did for 2 decades until admitting they took a shortcut.

Sat

Vic66 Well said. It's music, not a turntablist competion some people are so dumb! Turntablism is not even the correct term for what is being talked about here so your opinion has no credibility. Some people ARE so dumb. Lol.

Binar

Great comment. I played the vinyl ver. as a DJ, along with Bedrock & Communicate at the time, and got more adventurous mixes happening on my 1210s both 'Live' and in my bedroom. Even when I wasn't off my bollocks. All this stuff is also other people's [excellent] music, so it's basically just a 'selection chosen by S&D'. But 20 years ago, the DJ was the new pop star. Briefly / supposedly!

Alexandra

Yes, we're aware of this by now, and many still consider it to be a classic. It's still a great listening experience today.

How can I put in words the first time I heard this mix? I was already well into the dance and electronica world and i thought i had a pretty good knowledge of the tunes that were out there. Satellite Serenade kicked that thought into reality right away. None of the tracks sounded formulaic, this wasn't how dance mixes were meant to sound. I haven't heard any other mix since that has lived up to the idea of putting music into a journey in the way that this did.It's hard to comprehend the impact this had compared to the way things are now in the internet age - you couldn't google the tracks or labels involved, and (from my experience at least) there weren't any other mixes going round at the time that were playing anything even remotely comparable, or mixed the tracks so perfectly. It really felt like something unique, and I don't think anything in this digital age will ever have the same impact again. That lovely fold-out packaging with the visual track play times was the icing on the cake. All round perfect release.

Aloo

Absolutely agree on your above point. The transition between the two tracks is flawless and given that I would often listen to this mix whilst going for a run, always brought me right into the hear and now. The original version of Kites by Simon Dupree And The Big Sound is worth checking out if you like 60s garage pop.

Ytli

the ultimate template for mixing down-tempo trance, dark break beat and superlative epic house. The product of 10 years of genre changing electronic music that swept a generation. For those of us who loved mixing it changed the game. Yes, they took it into a studio and used Pro Tools to great effect but it was a vinyl driven mix built on perfect timing, immaculate beat matching and most importantly perfect key matching. There are many other brilliant mixing styles that suit different genres of house but without a doubt Sasha and Digweed will always be the 2 who blew every other DJ away.

Tolrajas

You do know the whole mix was done on a computer, they recorded the records to the computer and mixed in Pro Tools or what ever program they had at the time. We used to do the same thing back in the day when me and my Dj partner made mixes to give out. Promos we mixed live but everything else was pc based just like they did.

dermeco

I dug out this double CD from storage with the view of selling it on ebay having now got the vinyl bug. After giving the CDs a clean before playing to check that they wouldn't skip, I hit play and had forgotten just how good these CDs were. Timeless electronic tunes all expertly picked and sequenced. Decided within 10 minutes that this gem was far too good to sell and I'm keeping it :)One other surprise is the excellent sound quality on these CDs and then I heard a few tell tale pops and crackles. This compilation is sourced from superior vinyl hence the improved sonics. Grab a copy whilst you can.

adventure time

This is arguably the greatest mix album of all time, very little if nothing can top this. The beauty of the North mix is achieved through an excellent track selection and perfect mixing, which takes you on an unforgettable journey painting a beautiful picture/atmosphere. Just sit back, relax and enjoy the journey.The South mix, on the other hand, is a mix designed for the dance floor being filled with some top floor fillers as well as being darker in mood. The mixing is much like the North mix as it's again perfect.All in all, this is a classic, timeless mix album, and a must own.

Venemarr

Totally agree. No doubt in my mind that this is the greatest mix album of our generation. Flawless. Total game changer. Must have bought, and lost, and bought again, the CDs about half a dozen times now. Also have the vinyl, although as has been pointed out it only contains a subset of all the tracks. Got everything else on singles. This was and always will be a masterpiece. Timeless. The mix between Morgan King - I'm free and ultraviolet - kites.......amazing stuff. This album will never grow old

xander

Cd 2 blows me away every time- much darker ...perfect.

Qwne

Can someone explain to me why they dont reprint this clearly popular CD?

Vertokini

I saw that on Amazon too-though i think it was a misprint as the price was only there for a couple of days and then changed to £120....- they must have added a 0 by mistake haha!! I paid £25 for mine and it was worth every penny-love cd 2 :)

Vit

No idea why some things get repressed and some do not. Liscencing each song again is probably too much work including alot of red tape, I think that's why they had to change a few tracks on the first Renaissance CD when it was reissued. I am going to speculate that it has alot to do with copyrights and liscencing.

Vispel

Some years back that cd mix was fetching 300 on ebay ... lol

Dianantrius

Its now on Amazon for £1200 (new)

Snake Rocking

Funky space journey at its most exhilarating. Classic Funk.

Nakora

just picked this CD up. High class sound. I understand why it is a classic. high priced monetarily, but I cant put a price on this kind of journey. 100% classic Trance

Groll

"high priced monetarily"Ha ha, expensive, even?

Rrd

If you find this review and haven't heard this CD, well its a must buy. This is the one that made both of them, it is one of the greatest and it still rocks all these years on. Check out Liquid Cool and Sound System as my highlights of both disks but really the whole thing is amazing. Play CD1 to those that aren't dance converts and CD2 to those that are, and play both to yourself anytime you want to realise how good DJs can be. It is no wonder that the vinyl and CDs for this are at astronomical prices. Whatever form you can get this, just do it. This is the one that we talk about for a reason, Northern Exposure is the bomb!

Dianalmeena

The "transamazonian highway" samples are actually part of the TransAsian Express remix of Sattelite Serenade, the first track on the album, which I believe the orb did. That is why there was no separate mention of it on the sleevenotes, since they did not add the sample in themselves, it was part of the first track (I know because I have the original Satellite Serenade on vinyl).

Jairani

Thats because those mixes weren't actually mixed on or using vinyl they were mixed by CPU ,,funnily enough Diggers admitted in a mixmag interview that his GU mixes were tweaked in the studio to get the mix he wanted ...so in essence it's not a genuine live recording

Gosar

If you were wondering who would be hatstand enough to put in the David Attenborough sample on Track 1.01, you probably won't be surprised to hear that it is actually the "Transasianexpress Mix" by non other than Dr Alex Paterson and Kris Weston of The Orb, which was not credited at all on the sleeve notes of Northern Exposure... Ah yes! "Don't Leave Earth Without One"

Best West

Yes, it's on The Orb's "Auntie Aubrey's Excursions Beyond The Call Of Duty (CD 1)".

Ynye

I agree with the previous reviewer. These two discs are both excellent, in different ways. Disc 1 is a more diverse, lighter sounding mix which at times does seem 'chilled'. It progresses from the cool ambient sounding Satellite Serenade to the house-y beats of William Orbit's "Water From A Vine Leaf". Disc 2 is a darker, harder trance mix. I dare say it is what progressive trance is all about. The 'vibe' of the cd doesn't change as much as that of Disc 1 and the high point (IMO) is Banco De Gaia "Heliopolis" (very good trance). The second disc is much harder to find than the first disc, because the 2 disc edition (the one I am reviewing) went out of print, to be replaced by the 1 disc version (which contains only disc 1). I am not sure why they stopped making the 2 disc version, because the second disc (while not being quite as good as the first disc) is very good indeed.
