My initial listening to this mix left me with an impression of a boring mix, but somehow left me with the desire to give it a repeat listen. This was definitely worth the time to listen to again, as every time I go back enjoying more and more of the mix.
Often today we find mostly DJs who either try to strictly entertain their crowd, or DJs who try to "educate" their crowd. Sometimes DJs try to walk this line and many times are unsuccessful. Jackmaster in his mix for Fabric somehow manages to do both at the same time. Throughout the mix he scatters tracks from Juan Atkins, DJ Funk, Splack Pack in an attempt to play some older tracks while still being able to mix in tracks from newer artists like Sinden & SBTRKT, Addison Groove, Martyn, and Hudmo. Definitely a fun mix, and one that gets better every time I listen to it.
I would recommend this mix to anyone who is looking to become more educated in some of the older house and techno artists that helped shape the dance music that we love today.
