Wed, 27 Mar 2013Is it me or the guys in RA will not review any other DJ-Kicks? Both Digitalism and Hercules and Love Affair ones were practically forgotten. Why would this happen?

Mon, 24 Dec 2012you hit it on the head - look no further than the Marcel Dettmann 'Translation Two'. it simply does not belong in the mix, it sticks out like a sore thumb

Sun, 23 Dec 2012In my opinion MJC is a very gifted composer and solid dj (that being said).

As for this mix, she comments she wanted to expose her musical identity. Now that's a mighty target to pursue. By trying so, she was bound to compromise the mix. Less would have been more. She should have picked a narrower scope, focusing on a smaller part of her diversified musical mind (yeah, a tough choice to make when you feel the world is filled with expectations and you want to show what you've got to offer).... More

Sun, 23 Dec 2012Photek's mix is def better

MJC knows how to pick tracks but not how to make a DJ set - i.e. something that flows
