The case of the Mystery Techno Mix
Nov 29 2006
Hello all, Mike here. Today I have a treat for techno afficionados (but maybe not much else for those of you who don’t like repetitive beats as much). I’ve been sitting on this mix for a year or two now, and God knows it’s probably been doing the rounds for a lot longer than that. Nevertheless, I don’t think I can keep it a relative secret for much longer; relative because some of you might already know, love or hate it. It’s short and sweet; 20 odd minutes that cram in 15 or so tunes, pretty much all of which are hard as nails. Personal favourite moments include 5:40 and 10.00.
How I came into possession of it, where it came from and who mixed it, all remain a mystery. Nevertheless, whoever did mix it made use of those fancy pioneer dj mixers, judging by the breaks between tracks. If any of you do know who mixed it (i’ve read on some forums that it could be random dj Nigel Richards or even Jeff Mills or Carl Cox - unlikely), or can identify any of the tunes, or have any positive remarks, feel free to comment below. If on the other hand you are the crash victim of a ‘97 honda civic with spoiler, alloys and go-faster stripes playing this mix, likewise, don’t hesitate to vent your spleen right below.

That crash wasn’t somewhere in central TX was it?
1Ok Theres definately an Andreus Kremer track in there about 3/4 the way through and more than likely quite a few throughout… Not sure about lately but I know he put alot out on and may even own the label ‘Contruct Rythm’ out of Germany distributed by ‘PRIME’ . The whole mix is hard and driving. Good shit, really good movement between songs with clean functional energy flow -How techno is supposed to be mixed (IMO)
Thanks for sharing
2sweet man, thanks for the info. he has his own website and all! i might give him a mail later and see if he’s any wiser. nice one once again!
3Not sure if it helps but in the beginning of the track some girl says…
“Garbage Game Set one Wobbler”
If it’s the same Wobbler he is US Midwest DJ.
More of his stuff can be found here along with others.

4Oh yeah he also use to be billed on a lot of Drop Bass Network parties back in the day.

5yeah i’d thought about that dj wobbler fella alright, and i even got a set. but it’s not half as hard, so i thought it probably wasnt him. will check it out again now though. nice one darby!
6This was found in Ireland, right?
7yeah. probably off some p2p programme
8I remember this from long ago - the dark days before Bit Torrent when there was only Kazaa (non lite). I was searching for Nigel Ritchards, and I got nothing but dozens of copies of this mix. the title was “best techno mix ever - nigel ritchards carl cox frankie bones [long list of more tech DJs]“. Havent heard it since those dark days. Thanks for the revisit!
9Well…I was also searching the name of artist of that techno set! I get Jeff Mills & Carl Cox - Hard Techno Set! but I don’t think that is correct! However, I hope that we will get correct answer!
10I got the same song off kazaa but I also have set 3 “spin and tee” or something like that. Does anyone know what set 2 is called and where i can get it? I would really appreicate it.
11Yow, this must be coincidence. I found some cd’s of an ex of mine and found dozens of livesets… Now one of this sets, one that i really like because of its good tracks, is the one you posted.. So today I was searching on the thing the lady says at the beginning and came out here.. I really want the know some of the tracks used in this mix, so I might still find them on vinyl… I’m on the search now, so when i find something, I’ll post
12hi !
this set is great. And it’s “The Wobbler” who mixes it.
He’s from Wisconsin…
I know some of the tracks he played like :
Switch - personality Disorder
Justin Berkovi - Sustained buxom mad chips
Adam beyer on Code Red (2xLP)
ben sims - Hardgroove
Andrei morant on Compound i think
but i don’t have the whole tracklist… If someone get it, please post it
nioki.
