Release Notes.
==========================================================================
ôThis was perhaps the hardest one yet,ö says Digweed, ôThe proximity
between releases meant each new volume was strongly influenced by its
predecessor - as we moved from one to the other they had to relate and
make sense.ö
So, a real challenge. Just how did John go about tackling it?
ôIÆve developed the amount of tracks and layering over the series,ö he
elaborates, ôAnd weÆve taken it to the next level with this latest volume,
itÆs the most intense and intrinsic yet, which meant replacements,
additions, editing and a lot of time consuming assessments and
re-assessments.ö
Over the course of 22 tracks and 73 minutes John weaves a unique musical
thread. From favourites such as Ink & Needle, Guy J and Pig & Dan through
to welcome debuts from Henry Saiz, Myers Briggs or Soliquid, all are
concisely constructed in the mix to the point where 3 are often playing
at anyone time. Infact, due the resulting complexity, John decided to
re-structure the trackmark points to better reflect the more developed
passages û and so 22 records became 10 (see full tracklist below), as he
elaborates, ôIn trackmarking this way I am able to highlight the unique
qualities of the mix. Whilst it hopefully retains that signature Digweed
sound, IÆve used modern production techniques to create an album thatÆs
unlike anything youÆll ever hear me do in a club.ö
