Who is listening to this in 2024❤
I am!!!
Timeless set. This is as good as it gets for a chill out set. ❤
One of the best mixes ever.
Me! ❤
Different League
Who's still jammin to this in 2020, our world needs this more than ever
Me!
This is LIFE
i had sober fucking visions about my life to this album - you BET it's still in rotation!
Truth
Best mix album ever....
2024 and still cranking 👌🔥🎶🎵🎖in 🇿🇦
I can’t explain the importance of this mix in my life. So happy to see how many other people know it. It’s always felt very personal to me. Almost as if I’m the only one who gets it. I’ve never been more grateful for that not being the case. Thank you so much for sharing these. I still have my copy of this cd with original artwork.
With you 🤛🫂
Is the greatest.
I've been looking for this mix not knowing the title/artist for months. I randomly heard an unmarked CD of mine and finally tonight I looked this up and everything connected in my head again. OMG 🤯 sooo happy the mystery is solved. I should've known!!
Best friggin CD! Gotta get this on my Groove music app.
I feel you. This brings back irreplaceable memories. It’s still so sick.
I've probably listened to this about 1,000 times since it was released. Collected most of the tracks on vinyl.
This mix will sparkle like a diamond through time forever....
+fatboymig1 It's amazing how a lot of these albums hold up and just don't ever get old!
Along with northern exposure one
It has for the last 30 years. And it's still going strong.
Sasha & Digweed were the absolute leaders in tune selection. Each of the northern exposures produced absolutely golden segments! Timeless. So many emotive segments you just play on repeat. Hard to replicate in there modern era.
Listened all the way through my teens, and ultimately landed on techno. Surgeon, Regis, mulero, Clarke etc but that prog sound was unbeatable in its time.
Damerung and Symphony are pure 💦
You just don't hear anything that stirs emotions like this anymore and the new skool don't seem to appreciate the expertise of such quality 😅
@@peterpratt1526 real tawk. Even the old guys are putting out sub par music. I've noticed every band/composer from the 90s lost their cred trying to be pop.
This is just amazing. I reckon it's probably just 1000 people that have listened to it 250 times.
I'm one of them😂😊
But I'm sure I've listened to it way more than that. Heck in high school this and Mixmaster Morris' The Morning After I gamed a lot of RPGs and went to bed to these on the regular.
Probly true that
Well over 250 times. I’m on my 4th hard copy original CD. I’ve been able to find most of the tracks on vinyl, and have mixed them countless times. Sending you guys mad freaking love! I can’t believe I’m turning 52 in a few days!
never gets old! Ravers of the world reunite!!
Koala kontrol
And Burners (Ravers who Love Fire).
RAVE ON.
When did y'all start going to parties???
90
Songs and mixes are the soundtracks of our lives.
For real!
Hearing all these beautiful tunes by Sasha and Digweed brought me back to my 20s
+spotter 542 For me that was now a long time ago :( :)
spotter 542; No kidding man! 1995-2000 the best music, best drugs, and man the parties were unreal. Candy flipping at the local spot, and just chilling out to the best time for Music.
word TWILO NYC !!!
Ahem to that
Music in general was just better then. Many late nights in Tampa.
I could put this on repeat and listen all day long and it will Never get old and there’s always something different that I hear throughout. What a masterpiece 🫶🏼💪🏽👏🏽🙏🏽
Speechless doesn't begin to cover it. This is hands down the best album of music I've ever heard! Excellently paced, flawlessly mixed, and there isn't a time that I listen that it simpley doesn't overload me with audio/tactile synesthesia.
You're right my friend
that is not just a mix ... it's an epic journey :D
Enjoy the ride
Well said 😁
4:05 to 6:45 is the greatest transition I've ever heard in my life. The drop at 6:45 is legend and I remember it to this day since I first bought this cd.
This Mixing is on another Level!!! Brings me Back!! So Spiritual.... No Dj Today Can compete with these Two!!!! Thanks for the Memories S and D!!!!!!
NONE...nobody has that "feel"
Godlike
Turntable masters at there finest
GOD TIER MIX!

Chronology boyyyyyy. Listorama, with time data. I can see you had the urge to clarify still further. I felt it was definitely needed. To be stamped on the comments list like a, Dagger Pierced Lutheran Game Changer.
***** Out of Body Experience on northern exposure vol 1.... love how it seems like time stands still for a moment in the middle.
Seahawk
This album makes me sad. You know, like how you say... nuhstallju?
If God was into mixing I think this is how he would mix....simply the best.
+James Brewer agree :)
+James Brewer He is and He does...
for sure
She
+Mars McCarrick 😳
The transition from Cycles of time to Dammerung is absolutely mind blowing.
I have been a part of the 90’s rave music scene in Florida ever since this cd was released and even danced with DJ Sasha. This is the ultimate listening trance cd ever recorded! If you don’t get (understand) the impact of this cd in the dance/rave community, get on board!
I was right there with you. Orlando 1997 and Lauderdale 2001. Excellent era for trance. We had plenty of homegrown heroes!
@@Lesardah You are absolutely right about that! I miss those years! Which clubs did you frequent in Orlando? Do you remember The Club At Firestone? That was my ultimate favorite! I used to dance in the cage in front of the dj booth! 😃
@@GigShotsCarmenG We went to Firestone all the time. I remember we had a "tactic." There was this place up the street from Firestone called Club Cairo which had an open bar from 10 to 12. Then we'd finish the night at Firestone. We mainly went to the raves, though. A close friend of mine was friends with DJ Sandy and Tess from K5, so we got to get in VIP sometimes (met Crystal Method once - insane).
Orlando was a great place for the "early days" of EDM! Lauderdale and West Palm had more of a house / dance music culture. While Trance has always been my favorite (especially Chicane, rest his beautiful soul), I loved it all. Kinda into New Retro Wave now - especially The Midnight :)
@@GigShotsCarmenG
Did you ever go to shadow lounge in sobe?
Same here but on the West Coast. Loving the East Coast edition better than the West Cost. 😂
I can remember seeing them so many times live at Simon's in Gainesville and just being blown away by the mastery. I love that I can be 10 years sober and listen to this music and still experience the connection to the beats.
Flashbacks ;)
Some of best days of my life in late 90s at simon's
Omg!! Simon's!!! Love!!! 🤯🥰🤩😛
Met my wife at an Oakenfold set at Simons in 2001 !
Same here seven years sober. Buy a fluke. I met this random lady online and it turns out she used to work the door at Simmons!!!! we probably gave her our ID!
Oh man oh man! No way to explain the goosebumps I have right now. Renaissance, Norther exposure, Global Underground! That IS class. Its not the past, for me this is eternal.
Yesssir
Absofuckinlutly!!🤪
Eternal absolutely love bedrock records full stop
This was something very special to me and in fact it in some ways indescribable to others who were not
Around during those awesome years. kind of difficult to put into words how much this cd means to me. Sucks I have tried to buy it and am never find it. This cd is my dark side of the moon much love for posting this
This CD changed my life... it recreated me, my theme music during an important decision-making moment.
i can relate to this comment totally
So totally exactly what u said
I still have my CD Set - It is priceless.
I was there too. I even danced along with Sasha in Orlando. I’ll never forget that! After all these years, this is still my favorite trance recording EVER!
makes me cry with joy its so good
I agree, tears of happynesss, can only listen on special occasions..
I MISS THESE DAYS!!! Goosebumps..... ❤️🙏
this mix has everything.. great vocal tunes,build ups/breakdowns,breaks, snarling acid, trance.
it's got the lot..not many djs can take you on a proper journey,but this is sublime
I've been attending and producing raves since 1986. started in Miami, Tampa, and my all time favorite spot was Firestone in Orlando. But this is, has, and always will be the most beautiful and precise mix ever. From beginning to end... And for the one guys comment... I've felt like I was in Heaven quite a few times with this gem man. 47 years old and I still love to get down.
Awesome 305 baby!!!!
Absolutely 💯
I bought this and Expeditions in CD format from HMV in Bromley. It was 98 or 99 and I was working in the ad sales team at Loaded magazine in London. These two albums never left the company car. I drove anywhere and everywhere to these sounds. I'd go for a drive to nowhere just so as to blast them out sooner than annoy my girlfriend and neighbours back in the flat. We were clubbing every weekend in those years. Bagleys. The Cross. Club UK. Leisure Lounge. Satellite Club. Strawberry Sunday. The Fridge. The 414. The End. SW1 (later Pacha). Club SE1. Heavenly Social@The Gallery. Ministry of Sound. It was all high-end clubbing with quality mixing and sounds. But nothing quite so house-dub-cool as these lads. Only Paul Trouble Anderson, Seb Fontaine and Eric Morillo come to mind as DJ's I danced to live on set with a quality threshold anywhere near. Wow! What a privilege to witness all of that! God bless.
That first "baa daaa" and I'm immediately transported back 25+ years. This is programmed into my cellular structure.
On the water we walk, see me as he…… 😂
So many memories. Driving along deep forest roads, with gorgeous scenery to die for, as a taxi driver delivering a package to Ystradgynlais, Swansea from Wrexham. This as loud as loud can be .... wonderful !!!
I was listening to this in ibiza 1999 goood old days xxx and a couple of Doves
Quite simply the best mix the two have ever done in my opinion. Singularly I think Sasha takes the edge with his legendary Global Underground albums and his personal work but this in my opinion is the best side of a cd album they have ever done. Mixing, tune choice, smoothness, and class are impeccable, no one can come close to what they have achieved when it comes to mood mixing, several waves of goosebumps have descended upon me in the last 70 minutes or so!
I'd respectfully disagree and say that as an individual, John Digweed is more skillful. It is a very close-run thing and they have different strengths; Digweed is more technical and subtle while Sasha is more dramatic. Let's face it, they are two of the best but I think that it is fair to say that together they are better than either are by themselves.
John Whyte I somewhat agree, I feel they're equally good yet different in style. When combined together they're easily the best DJ act I have heard, absolutely magical.
Mate, I listened to everything they put out in real time and for me, the 'Journey By DJ' series of c1994 Sash/Digweed
#4 was, and still is my favourite! But the margin between all their stuff, especially Digweed was narrow because it was all great. More importantly it was in the right place at the right time...Including me! :)
"Put your hands in the air and say you just don't care!"
This is the Sasha solo mix btw. Sasha is cd1 on all the Northern Exposure mixes and Digweed cd2.
@IAmaPersion I did, I don't know why that is. I basically said I can't remember where I read it but the difference in styles is obvious. In a really long winded way lol
Who's still playing this in 3422??Downloaded to my brain set and still plays. I kicked the yh14ks habit, been sober 6 zeta years. Still raises me up to stratosphere.
Same
Music for the soul...the body....and the mind!
I've listened to all their releases and seen them live playing together and separately on countless occasions. Gotta say this mix is their finest shit. 1st time ever listening to this gem and i'm speechless.
Yeah, can't argue with that! Quality from start to finish!
This CD got me into electronica when I was in 6th grade, I'm 25 now. It was indescribable to hear this for the first time.
Certainly waited too long :)
Loving this.. Paul O got me started on this journey many years back but I was amazed at NE#1 and NE#2 is imprevisse also, can't wait to check out CD2. Also to lacrahuntington great to see another tour for NIN just a few months back.
Top banana! S&D are the Best of Best
By far the best mix ever by anybody.
YES! I wrote my Ph.D. thesis to this album. It was like a portal for creativity, and I wrote the whole thing in about three weeks to these beats.
😂 TOO FUNNY! I’ve done a few of em in my undergrad days. Encompassing this album with the broader context of EDM music. I feel every emotion within the span of this freaking God tier mix!
OmG!! I've been searching for this album for twelve years!! I used to listen to it over and over and over and over and over and over and over and I still love it!! The best mix ever created & it will never ever get old!! My favorite of all time. Yay!
amen
Werd!!
Unsurpassed to this day.
The chill vibe of this mix helped me during some very turbulent times in my life. As a result I always have a special place in my heart for this mix.
same here man. this specific disc has seen me through some very dark moments in my life.
Kai Chen Glad to hear it's helped someone else. I'm still coming back again. :)
Same here
I wasn't even born when this was made and that's bittersweet because this is gold.
+4lexandra C Glad you like it....music is ageless.....pardon the pun :)
+4lexandra C Sasha and Digweed are truly amazing DJs! Keep an eye out for them since they are having a reunion tour starting this fall 2016!
Yeah you missed having to buy the same music over and over back in the day since you would play good music like this too many times and the tape in your walkman would wear out. Remember putting this onto my first iPod too so it wouldn't wear out anymore. Only problem then is your ears would wear out first now LOL
I'm now 60 years old. When you have good taste in music it will never, ever leave you!!! Take care young lady!
Old soul??

Now this is Music! The original Masters at work.
This mix blew my mind close to 20 years ago and still does every.single.time. The OG’s G.O.A.T mix!!!
One of the best Dissolves in music history.
Psppppsp
Indeed
Pure genius. This set is one of those rare moments that transcend music ❤
I remember when I saw them play at The House of Blues, New Orleans LA. that I saw Digweed mixing 3 vinyls at the same time. I couldn't keep track on what he was doing, but he was a machine at the mixer board... it was like seeing a scientist run sophisticated machinery for an experiment... and that is what he was just exactly doing... creating new sounds/mixes with pure artistic precision and mastery. I realized then the level of talent it takes to have a name like Sasha or Digweed.
It’s my bday tomorrow so I’m straight up jamming to this right now. Still get the goosebumps from this. 1997 was the best year ever.
Simply one of the best cds ever !
This is THE progressive album IMHO. I have yet to find such a seamless and well thought out mix of breaks, trance, and house music. Some of the most obscure tracks you'll ever lay ears on put together in an hour of flawless musical bliss.
Wow , the memories are crashing down on me.
northern exposure east & west coast NEVER seem to get old... 💕 EVER.
I wish I could get all of the people who love this album and understand it to dance under the milky way on a clear night...or even better under the Aurora Borealis in the arctic circle...this album is still as amazing as when it was first released and it brings back so many memories for me. Take care...we are all friends through a shared love of music, this particular album is enough to heal wounds and stop wars if only more people heard it!
Totally agree!😊
Man this album was so great, takes me back to those longs crazy nights/days!
Still trippin' to this in 2023 🤩 ...without even being on drugs 😋
YOU HAD TO GO THERE! 😂😂😂😂😂😂🙏🙏🙏🤣🤣🤣🥹🥲 love it!
THis still speaks to me and moves my soul and my feet...from about 40:19 minutes until ...8 years later! #LA Burning Man parties!
Dammerung always gets me!
The MAN!!! Have had the opportunity to see him several times over the years. First time in 93'. O the memories.❤️❤️❤️☺️
incredible mix, never tire of listening to this. A masterpiece.
Driving home from parties we would play this album.
This is my all time favorite cd. Arguably the best EM cd ever released. The greatest adventure I've ever been on EVER. I can't tell you how many times I've bought this cd, simply because I was always giving it away.
I feel like all the uploads of Northern Exposure have comments that share similar love for these mixes. I can't explain how, but these mixes are so important to me. NE1 is burned into my memory so much I can almost predict every transition lol. Listened to it on my favorite hiking trips, late at night tripping by headlamp, on dark long road trips, it's just perfect for journeys. I was born in 2000, but ppl who listened to these when they were new have said similar things, I hope S&J are proud to have made these
They always feel fresh, modern, even cutting edge. These mixes are easily my favorites, far above anything else I've heard, and an anchor for why I continue to listen to electronic.
There are mixes and then there are works of art. This is a work of art.
Worded perfectly
Reminds me of road trips to snowboard in the mountains in Colorado. We’d play this CD cranked up along the mountain passes. Was the best! Took you away to another place.
My favorite mix of the late 1990's. A true MasterMix, nothing but inspiring.
No I'm at home in about two hours
This takes me back to the 1990s...beautiful! X
Best trance mix in the world in my opinion, sit back and listen to something beyond magic...you know...
These 2 DJs have doctorates in mixology.
Mern3k easy when you have help - !!!
Mern3k All the best and greatest respects though - in a non derogatory way ... ... safe & cool ...
Sorry otherwise .....................................................................................................................................
+Marcus Hertz I would understand if these two to didn't cement their way in to being two of the baddest djs ever. and I agree because I only release live mixes. But, this is perfection. ableton or not
Brings back memories :-)
I saw this set live in Orlando in 97 or 98. It was the best live set I ever saw Sasha serve up. This set at sunrise? Yes please, more of that.
Lucky you!
Funny because I've lived in Orlando since 92 and have seen every Sasha gig and not once did he come close to playing anything as mellow as the Northern Exposure CD's
Stop lying mo fo 😳
you are right to the level that studio mixing is totally different vs what live mixing is. And indeed tracks are sequenced and re-composed into each other to have an overall effect.
Though I am unsure if they would "fear" to mix it live. If it will be the same? Probably not. If it is a problem? Surely not.
NE compilations were never meant to be a club theme and god bless them for it!
"would never attempt mixing these CD's live out of fear they could never come close to the originals" If you went to every Sasha set in Orlando since 92, then you heard plenty of sets more complicated and amazing than this CD mix. This was an after hours party set. Which if your friend from high school was the promoter who flew him in to town you might have been able to check out too.
@danielbrown lol
Run to it everyday. No exception.
This album has changed my soul, on so many levels! April 2021. The world needs this, more now than ever! Editing this because, look below. Lol. Took the words right from my mouth.
In the 20:00 you start feeling the wonderful of the life and universe you live. Divine.
Arguably the best album of modern dance music. It is timeless. While the beats and sounds may seem rudimentary by modern day standards, the classic sounds and a generous soulful rhythm give this album a solid 5 stars. Kudos to Sasha and John Digweed. Probably their greatest collaborative effort ever.
Awesome Mix I still remember buying this CD for the first time it made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up
2000 raver days!!!!!! goes out to all my friends that i lost!!!!!!! love this!!!!!
The most mind blowing/ heart pounding mix that I'll EVER own..
I have it up on my CD shelf
resting WAY UP above the rest.
This particular version of Northern Exposure (East Coast Version) was transformative for me back in the day. I am so happy to find it again (I miss my old CD of it so bad)! Thank you for letting me finally find it again. This album is a musical journey into bliss😊
Hybrid "Finished Symphony" sliding in so gracefully to end this mix is the icing on an amazing, perfect cake. 5 star mix from the original masters :D
It’s not finished Symphony, it’s just Symphony which was the original by Mike Truman.
When he teamed up with Chris, then rewrote it with the Russian federation Orchestra and called it Finished Symphony 😉
But yeah, from Uberzone to Fluke to Distant Voices to Purple and then capping off with Symphony, I couldn’t ask for more out of electronic music.
The pinnacle still 24 years later
Hybrid is a freaking great Electronica group! They write some of the most epic music...
I have this disc in my car, play it over and over. It's that good!
one of the first records I ever bought was Lost Tribe's "Angel." magnificent...
easily one of the greatest mixes of all time... so perfect and timeless!
One of the greatest albums of all time, lots of people are missing out on this
If you just got here, you have been blessed to hear a top shelf, mid nineties, before the EDM disaster, historical masterpiece.
fuck me brings back the 90s with a nostalgic lump in my throat. I've still got the original release from 1997 when dance and clubbing was still fresh and meant something - cannot believe its FIFTEEN years ago.
Thanks Eli Carr … Sublimely Blissful!!!🎶

Best ever mix in my 39 years of life x INCREDIBLE!!
those feelings when we were listening to this...
Still the best, hands down!! Perfect mix, track selection, mood, etc.
I discovered Hybrid and Fluke through this compilation. Sasha and Digweed had access to all the gems before anyone else 🤘
This is one of the best ever. I used to listen to this driving out to B.C in my Mk1 Golf GTI. It was a ritual. This and 'West Coast Edition' on repeat. Those were the good ol' days.
I forgot just how f***ing good Sasha and John Digweed were. The last two tracks are so beautiful and I used to listen to them over and over in the 90s in college. Just hearing them now brought a tear to my eye, so beautiful.
some tracks never age... shivers
Goodness me. What an incredible music this is. It's hard to pour into words, maybe impossible. One of the best mix I have ever heard in my entire life. If you were born in the '70s, or '80s you know exactly what I mean. If not, I encourage you to pay attention. It's exceptional. It's one of the best electronic music can offer - even today. 👌👌👌 (quality upload 👍)
this is my favorite mix of all time. It's one of the most beautiful sonic stories ever told from start to finish. a true musical journey...the mixing, selection, just top notch. we'd put this on in our loft after a night of being out. this was the wind down to some incredible nights and mornings. Cheers!
This takes me straight back to high school. 90s progressive was so good.
i loved the first 1 of the Northern exposure,but the 2nd cd on Northern exposure 2 is 1 of the best mixs I have heard, I was only 16 when the it came out, I played it at every party 🎉, the shit
Every time I lose interest or need inspiration on what it takes to be a good DJ and/or make a good mix, I listen to the Northern Exposure compilations. My only complaint is that unless you have the vinyls and are a DJ-you don't truly comprehend the mastery and sophistication this series entails.
This series even from a historically point of view is ground breaking. This is when progressive breaks were in their infancy, trance wasn't a popular genre, & many DJ's didn't cross genre boundaries.
Spot on.
I was young when i was listening this album at first time,but thats album show me the which music style can beat good rytgm my heart in my life. Thanks Digweed and Sasha. I never forgot To You!!!
Moons of Saturn: Denver 90s. Sasha and Digweed on the tables! 🎉🎉🎉
23:30 , giving me chills, and brings me to tears these days. I will alway love you. If I could go back in time, I would have never lost you. ❤️🩹 😢 26:10 ok, pity party done. Back to the deep space exploration. 😂
Abso*uckinglutely timeless!!! Haven't listenend to this in ages and it's hard to believe how little this has aged. Got the original double CD at home so will dig this out tonight! Thansk for posting!
No probs Durabunny. I'm sure I've still got the cd's somewhere.....sshhheeeeett.....their probably worth £'s now.
