New York, NY. (Top40 Charts/ Pacha) -
John Digweed returns to Pacha New York on Friday,
September 14, 2007 with the eagerly anticipated third volume in his acclaimed Transitions series. Oft known for his masterful mixing and seamless track selection, Digweed continues to captivate clubbers at the most exciting clubs in the world.
Every track on TRANSITIONS VOL.3 has been given the magic touch by continuous layering and in the overall running time the passages where there isn't a mix running are actually shorter than those where they are. It's an intense ride which in true Digweed fashion builds over its 78-minute excursion. The mix kicks off with Sasha's elusively titled 'Coma '. Moving on highlights include the innovative use of Lawrence's 'Along The Wire', broken down and part-used throughout its neighbours 'Sweet N Candy' and 'Einzelkind'. The Dusty Kid / Aldo Kadiz mash-up, 'Begun The End Has' from Harthouse regular Joel Mull, the incredible Josh Wink remix of 'Someone Else' and Gui Boratto's emotive interpretation of Adam Freeland's latest, 'Silverlake Pills' are similarly outstanding.
'Musically speaking, I've been shifting through the gears over the series,' he says 'and we're now approaching top speed. This mix still represents an immediate snapshot of my favourite tunes and producers, but it's also about that specific energy you get at 3 or 4am at the best clubs or festivals around the world.'
To capture and realize this John worked a whopping 20 tracks into the album. 'Running the tracklist up so high was a conscious decision,' he elaborates, 'it allowed me to generate that energy and atmosphere, which I further reinforced by creating exclusive edits.'
The finished version of TRANSITIONS VOL.3 will also feature a second disc containing a brand new exclusive 25-minute track from the minds of John and production partner Nick Muir: 'We started on it earlier in the year', says Digweed, 'And it quite literally grew and grew and grew from there. It reached a point where it seemed better suited to an album, so I hit upon the idea of marrying it with 'TRANSITIONS VOL.3' as a way of giving something back to our fans.'
John Digweed has remained at the apex of the international DJing world with his longstanding presence in underground dance culture and relentless innovation in music. He has remained one of the most respected, analyzed and imitated DJ's in the world. His widely popular Kiss100 'Transitions' radio show is one of the most successful dance music shows in all of England with internet broadcasts to the world and a burgeoning series of podcasts.
