Throwback Thursdays – Sasha Essential Mix Live From Maida Vale 2005

I have been a Sasha fan for a long time. His track selection, the way he can really build a set, his mixing skills and the way he continues to evolve his sound and the way he DJs. Started out on vinyl ofcourse, then cdj’s and around 2005 he started performing live with Ableton Live and after that he began to play with CDJs linked to Traktor.

Sasha did this Essential Mix live with Ableton Live in the Maida Vale studio and this is not your average Sasha mix. Making full advantage of his setup, he makes a crossover between breakbeat, house, techno and even some pop music. Awarded ‘Essential Mix Of The Year’, this one stays one of the best Sasha mixes i’ve heard, in all aspects.
