Neuro Posted December 30, 2009 Report Share Posted December 30, 2009 Am I right in saying that Jules has not done a Radio 1 Essential mix in 2009 at all? I've been tidying up some audio and just noticed. If so, it's the first time in 15 years that he has not done one... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tremor Posted December 30, 2009 Report Share Posted December 30, 2009 I would not be surprised if he has not done one. he used to do them quite regularly around the time he had 2 weekly shows because he was so popular then. Now he is still no doubt popular on the radio but I'm not sure he would do much different with an essential mix than what he plays in his current show. I guess maybe he would normally do some live ones from Ibiza or festivals?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Number2Fan Posted December 30, 2009 Report Share Posted December 30, 2009 Blimey!! But yeah have to agree with Tremor... Some of them tunes just aint essential are they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregg Posted December 30, 2009 Report Share Posted December 30, 2009 I think the cutbacks by the BBC on outside broadcasts due to the recession is probably key here. There is a live from Judgement Sunday broadcast though which I've posted over in the Audio section. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonman Posted December 30, 2009 Report Share Posted December 30, 2009 i think it just shows how much the club scene has changed. Gone are the days of superstar dj's. Nowadays most dj's play a wide variety, not just one genre. Trance now, is very much a late 90's sound also, it hasn't really evolved much over the last 6 years or so, and it certainly hasnt kept up with trends. You only have to look at the top 5 voted for essential mixes this year to see this... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've approved the file, so it can now be grabbed from here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregg Posted January 3, 2010 Report Share Posted January 3, 2010 lol no worries! I hadn't noticed it hadn't been approved. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Kane Posted January 3, 2010 Report Share Posted January 3, 2010 Some of the essential mixes this year have been awful, a lot of samey sounding DJs week in-week out. I have no idea how Sharam won the Essential Mix of the year either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
