James Blake – BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix 2013-12-25 [Classic] Benji B’s choice

This one was first aired in 2011.
“”Picking a favourite Essential Mix is impossible. It’s like saying what’s your favourite album! But in the end I went for the most relevant mix for now, from the winner of the 2013 Mercury Music Prize, James Blake. This is one of the stand out Essential Mixes for me over the past few years. Superb selction all the way through. It’s interesting and varied and a real representation of his influences, which I think any good mix by an artist really should be”. Benji B.”

Pete Tong – BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix 2013-12-25 First ever Essential Mix [Classic]

“”I can’t believe we’ve been doing this show for twenty years! We’ve done over a thousand Essential Mixes in that time and created an unbelievably rich archive of dance music history. The idea behind the Essential Mix first came from me going to New York in the 1980’s, discovering the mix show and being blown away by it. Then when I got my own show on Radio 1 in the early 1990’s I told my bosses that we had to have a show like this in the UK. The Essential Mix was the perfect way to get DJs like Sasha, Paul Oakenfold and Carl Cox onto Radio 1. Putting this first Essential Mix together was quite antiquated compared to the way its put together today. It was literally me standing in a room with two turntables and recording straight onto tape recorders!” Pete Tong, December 2013.”
