Random 60yo dude was dancing around my local convenience store going on about Gilles Peterson at The Electric Ballroom in the 90s. So here I am... and lovin it!

This shaped my early music collection, still have the cassette . . . and went on to buy most of the tracks on vinyl.

Always class, his Saturday afternoon show on Jazz FM EVEN earlier than this was a must listen and the best club Dj I’ve ever heard. A dude. 😮

[lewispockley]

Probably the best essential mix I've heard.

Had this taped off the radio back when it was on live 👌 pure chilled goodness 👌

Oh my fffing God. Been listening to Giles fir years now on bbc6 and wwfm, but never thought if finding his early mixes. What dumbass, what bliss!

Thank you for the upload, awesome nostalgic memories

Remember this playing - Peshay Miles from home is such a tune

[Bezza_Rezza]

I remember always enjoying Giles' stuff back in the day and now, I absolutely adore all these old ones folk have posted up. Anyone know where I can find more of them, same vibe??? Please let me know and link me so I can create a full folder dedicated to his masterpieces :)

I follow all his shows on t' wireless these days and this is my vibe now no question. Ditched rock n' roll for good after 27 years 🤣

Any more links to pure bliss out mix gear like this one, would be more than appreciated thanks 👍

To think that this would've been put together on two 1200's and a basic 2 channel mixer. No sequencing, synchronising, or button pressing 'beat matching' options. Just pure talent.

Does Acid Jazz mixed with Drum's and Bass equals Trip Hop ?🤣🤣🤣🙃
