John Digweed Delivers New 'Choice' Mix

---

The "Choice" collections are fast becoming a who’s who of influential figures. With legendary artists such as Jeff Mills, Louie Vega, Derrick Carter, Francois Kervorkian, Tony Humphries, Danny Tenaglia, X-Press 2 and Frankie Knuckles hosting previous releases it is just a matter of time before your own personal hero gets this unique opportunity to really communicate their own musical history.

This CD will very likely surprise many who buy it. They will expect the JOHN DIGWEED they have known for the past ten years. But John has been spinning and collecting records for many, many years.

He could have included much older tracks but he opted to include as much musical territory as he possibly could, from his early beginnings in 1982 up to and through the birth of what we'll call "modern house". A DJ's fan base can have very weighty expectations... invisible limits placed on diversity and the potential creativity that distinct music encourages.

A dedicated fan-base comes to expect 'more of the same' from their hero and sometimes very little else. The mark of a great DJ is that they can deliver to those limiting expectations while also transcending them in a uniquely creative and vibrant way. This is something that JOHN DIGWEED has made a lifelong career practice of, and that's his real story.

This CD also contains re-edits by the man himself made especially for this mix.
