Les sessions Essential Mix de la BBC sont considérées comme cultes. La crème des artistes tout genre confondu est passée par là : depuis 1993, Laurent Garnier, Portishead, Daft Punk, Fat Boy Slim, Massive Attack ou encore Gilles Peterson ont laissé derrière eux des mixes incroyables et incontournables (vive le P2P pour les (re)découvrir). Et l'année 2008 démarre en fanfare avec deux invités de marque londoniens, Hervé (qui se cache aussi sous le nom de Count of Monte Cristal) et Sinden.
Ce sont les producteurs de musique de club les plus talentueux actuels selon moi. Leurs EPs sortis sur Dubsided ou Countferfeet ("Cheap Thrills" d'Hervé est une tuerie), leurs remixes de Lady Sovereign, Edu K, ou encore Basement Jaxx, sont des musts absolus, les symboles de la musique actuelle des dancefloors, où les influences de la fin des années 90, les bootlegs de "dance" agrémentée de flow hip-hop, une électro-house des années 2000 au son nasillard se mélangent. Cela nous offre un Essential Mix qui restera gravée dans les mémoires d'auditeurs avec une place de choix dans les archives de la BBC.

And the year 2008 starts with a flourish with two guest speakers London, Hervé (who also lurks under the name of Count of Monte Cristal) and Sinden
These are music producers of the most talented club today in my opinion. Their EPs released on Dubsided or Countferfeet ( "Cheap Thrills" Hervé is a killing), their remixes of Lady Sovereign, Edu K, or Basement Jaxx, are absolute musts, the symbols of the music of dancefloors, where influences from the late 90, bootlegs of "dance" embellished flow of hip-hop, electro-house of 2000 at its nasillard mingle. This offers us an Essential Mix will remain etched in the memories of listeners with a special place in the archives of the BBC.
