In celebration of the 25TH ANNIVERSARY of my first DJ performance (September 29th, 1989!), I'm proud to present the first of the PROGRESSION SERIES, a set of club classic/alternative mixes from the late 1980s and very early 1990s.
It all starts with "Ruthless Progression," containing a slew of mega-rare extended club remixes jam-packed with memories of my earliest years in the DJ industry.
This is the most "personal" mix that I've recorded so far. Every track in here - from the classic Depeche Mode B-side "Happiest Girl" to the LOOOONG-but-awesome "Always on My Mind/In My House" (with Neil Tennant rapping!) - is special to me for one reason or another.
All transitions in this mix were done using vinyl, turntables and a mixer - no laptops, MIDI controllers or autosync. Post-production was applied to address some levels issues, add DJ drops, etc.
