you bet!

So, as I look through this tracklist, I remember trying to get further and further away from deep house, while trying to discover more of the "techier" sounds with the same type of groove.

These "techier" sounds were actually new (TO ME) at this point, and hadn't necessarily become ubiquitous in this scene. However, you'll notice that I was still discovering great music, and relied heavily on the staples of that time - labels such as Dessous, Trapez, Substatic, and Force Inc. You'll also notice that towards the end of the mix, I regressed back to my comfort zone of tech house - but it still fit together fairly nicely.

Records like the Parotic Music record are still the ones I'm psyched to play. Completely hard to find, gems (on vinyl) that you'll never find on current top tens or digital download sites. If you were one of the lucky ones to discover this record in the shop when it came out, then you're probably only one of a few hundred to have it.

Apparently, I was in love with Seek and Destroy since it made it on two consecutive mixes :) Oh, and that Nekko record still DESTROYS - ask those who were in Miami back in 2005 :)

Red Line Sessions #5 (August 2003)

Post by Brian Ffar »

Probably one of my favorite mixes of the entire RLS series. If you can tell by the tracklisting, I have completely begun to shed my old preferences, and have taken a head first dive into underground minimal. I still rock the majority of these records on a regular basis.

Can you remember your delight when you discovered these artists for the first time?!?

Tejada, Osbourne, Melchoir, Krikor...game fucking OVER. 2003 people...

By the way...if I met my own 2003 self as an aspiring dj, I would kick my own ass ;)

Seriously, how AWESOME is Lusine?

also, around this point, it was great to meet some new friends, and hear what types of things they were pushing at the time production wise. Not sure what happened to Earth, but man that guy was talented!

Kriece is still going strong - anyone have any word on Trey Smith?
