Best Intro/Start to a set or cd.

It was a really short set, but the intro to Digweed's pre-Miami Hotmix on Radio1, complete with Petey Tong on the voiceover is so monsterously epic, it makes my head spin.

^^^good call

with the David Attenborough sample

Well for me it`s gotta be Sasha - @ One World, Glastonbury 27/06/03. I`m not one for hearing the crowd on a set but coupled with the first track it really makes my hair stand on end. I`m not a train spotter but i`m sure one of you guys know`s what it`s called.

Coco Da Silva "The Shiva Chant"


He started his set at Fabric with it the month before as well, awesome tunage



However my favorite intro must be when Sasha used Jody Watley "I'm The One" (Dead Zone Mix) really fucking incredible and set the tone for a simply classic set.

So far I didn't hear better opener than the one in Parks and Wilson's emix from 2000 - they started with a some traditional japanese tune and then went straight to Tilt "The dragon" , it's massive for me

I also liked digweed's opening from 2004 New Year's party

pollon - lonely planet followed by dust was a great into, as was apollo vibes by the track i liked most be creamer & k - love in traffic.

loving the ambient mix of stars too, i liked the way nick warren opened with it on his set live@ the tlv tel aviv.

Digweed Global Underground LA Disc 1....Apollo Vibes

Re: Best Intro/Start to a set or cd.

Digweed opened a live set (think it was in Winchester 2001) with New Order - "Crystals [Bedrock remix]"...I get goosebumps every time I hear the start of the mix....slow...slow....spheric and THEN booom boom badda da bang uz uz uz uz uz... awesome

[pretence]

Agreed with most of above...

Thought I'd add Driving to Heaven on GU 21. Tis dreamy...

What do you guys think was the best Start/Intro of a set or cd.
I have to say for an older set:
Sasha and Digweed - Northern Exposure - Expeditions
Breeder - Tyrantanic (Breeders Underexposed Mix) with Space Manoeuvres -Stage One

For a more recent set:
Sashas start of various mixes with Invisible Inc. - Stars (Ambient Mix)

most definitely the Expeditions cd's--without a doubt, those intros were what got me hooked on this 'crack' we call 'music.' Also Dave Seaman's last 2 GU's had some great openers as well. However, Sasha is the master of this live, while almost routinely opening his sets with 3-4 minute intros. I love 'em all!!

well, it's a live set for me, and wow, it's from digweed.

the year he won #1 dj from dj mag, and broadcast his ceremony or whatever from bedrock on his kiss show, like nov 5th or something 2001 i'm thinking. anyway, some girl introduces him as #1 , the crowd screams like mad, he drops that Peace Division cut. I wet my pants.
