System Recordings released Sasha & John Digweed Present Delta Heavy, a documentation of the most important DJ tour to ever hit America. Delta Heavy was the groundbreaking electronic music tour featuring the extraordinary DJ talents of Sasha, John Digweed, and Jimmy Van M. Visiting all corners of the States in 2002, the tour - promoted by Clear Channel - was attended by more than 85,000 people in six weeks and was voted by the American public as Best Event at DanceStar USA 2003.
Along with touring acts The Chemical Brothers, The Prodigy and Underworld, Sasha & John Digweed are responsible for America's mid-90's dance music explosion. As a launching pad, their monthly residency at New York City's famed club Twilo was a larger than life event that drew fans from all over the world. This was a cultural phenomenon that lifted the DJs to an almost mythical status across the country and opened the doors for a wave of other top international DJs. Despite releasing several popular mix CDs and playing to crowds in other cities, Sasha & John Digweed couldn't possibly reach all their fans in a vast land like America. As a result, Sasha & John Digweed's protégé Jimmy Van M. conceived a massive first-of-its-kind touring electronic music event. The revolutionary event was called Delta Heavy.
Kicking off spring 2002, Sasha & John Digweed's Delta Heavy Tour was the most important DJ tour to ever hit America. Produced by Warped Tour creator, Kevin Lyman, the 31 live dates forever raised the bar for large-scale electronic music events. Technically produced like a rock concert, complete with touring sound, lighting, staging, laser and video production courtesy of award winning designers Imaginary Forces, Delta Heavy catapulted Sasha & John Digweed into arena headlining status.
Produced and directed by Ben Turner, who has championed electronic music worldwide for 15 years, and executive produced by Sasha & John Digweed themselves, Delta Heavy is a compelling and intimate documentary film that takes the viewer behind the scenes of the largest DJ tour ever mounted in America. Featuring over an hour of exclusive live footage and interviews plus bonus materials with Sasha, John Digweed and co-creator/opening DJ Jimmy Van M, Delta Heavy is a must-have remembrance for those who were there and an essential purchase for all Sasha & John Digweed fans everywhere.
"This video takes you from the middle of the dance floor to backstage and into the world of Sasha and myself on a 9 week DJ tour across America on a scale that had not been done before and has not been recreated since - this really captures every aspect of a DJs life and then some!" -- John Digweed
Ill never stop loving this point of my life. Being apart of this era makes it even more special. Time have changed, but ill never forget.
true words, I was just born when these two were rocking stages, I somehow feel this moment that you're feeling. Priceless stuff *tear*
I met the love of my life during a sasha and digweed set at twilo in NYC in 2000. she's gone, but still dig this music. thanks guys.
Was there quite a bit. Best times ever. Best club ever. Whatever happened to her?
Respect to these 2 pioneers. Even these tracks sound fresh 20 years later.
Sounds better than 90% of the over-produced tech-house drivel on Beatport.
@@jkk45 agreed.
this was THE TOUR that preceded everything that "EDM" has become today, which was done using completely underground-driven hype and respect.
Yup. Don't know if it will ever really be replicated again. Maybe early Pink Floyd was like this so maybe it happens more than I'm aware, but what really made them special is that during their greatest reach/hype/influence they were still very much the heart and soul of the underground in a way no one else has even remotely come close to imo.
Just so awesome!! Life changing….even my cats are named Sasha and Digweed.
Awesome trip down memory lane! I'm a former UK clubber from the '90s era; Sasha and John were huge in the UK at that time. It's crazy that Alex was just one of a dozen DJs knocking around at the Hacienda that were all pretty much the same, and then a few years later, he was Sasha, £100,000 a set guy, and his fame just exploded so quickly - he was in the right place at the right time. He and John b2b at Space Ibiza is my favourite memory of them, an incredible set. Crazy that DJs back then didn't wear ear monitors, and they are playing at 130db every night, I imagine deafness and titinus is rife with these guys now.
Sasha to John-“Did she just call you Mr. Pigweed?”
I saw Sasha, my very first rave in 1994. Im pretty sure him and probably the ecstasy was the reason i fell head over heels for parties!!! Nothing will ever come close to a good underground 1990's party!!!
Still come by for a watch every now and then.
The love is still there, regardless of the pop-edm wasteland America has become.
Support the real DJ's making real music peace be to all.
If it werent for Jimmy Van M, Digweed, and Sasha, North America would never have had any long-term musical integrity. Thankful for these guys.
and Paul Oakenfold in my humble opinion.
Airdrawndagger still sounds quite fresh to this day. Sasha new what he was doing.
I'm seeing Sasha and Digweed together for the second time tomorrow night. The first time was 22 years ago. Can't wait. These guys are truly amazing and inspiring 🎉😂❤
They're still amazing to see live.
The music has changed, times have changed, but it's still a transcendental experience seeing them perform.
always adore hearing them talk about the music. such humble guys who introduced me to "proper" music, considering beforehand i was listening mostly to italian dance music and US House/Garage. Once you hear Set In Stone that's it, you know you're going to listen and spin Prog House all your life.
US Garage and Italo is all fantastic music as well, though!
I was at the Toronto show. As soon as the set was done. Bam lights Get Out Great Show
What a moment, when the idea of large-scale, financially viable success was just going from dream to reality...
I miss these days, I actually had the pleasure of the attending their stop here in Kansas City, in fact a few moments of Uptown Theater was actually featured in this documentary and I have the DVD for this. Really really miss these days.
I was there tooooo! I miss those days so much but so honored & blessed to know I was a part of it💛🙏💛 just happened upon this documentary today & taking a trip down memory lane for sure & loving it! And surprised they made a stop in KC of all places! So grateful!
I see so much MTV colour influence... I forgot there was a time like this but as a kid I didn't know of this... only the sportwear style that was somewhat futuristic like o'neil and stuff... nice footage high quality and suprising how huge this scene was...
Was for there for the Twilo days religiously and still go when they pop up. Cheers.
I was at the Atlanta show. One of the 4-5 times seeing them together. It was awesome.
WAVY GRAVY
God I miss them, and Delta Heavy:( Please EDM god bring it back!
Ok
caught this tour in Philly at TLA. small venue but good times for sure.....Patrick Tetrick was good enough to get the first renaissance compilation signed for me. Good on you Patrick👍🏻
I was there in New Orleans for the last show and it was awesome!
Sasha: "I'm just stood outside this f**king enormous boat..."
I found this a lot funnier than I should! Where do I begin...
I was at the Detroit stop....epic night
Te felicito es un buen documental y más tratándose de estas dos grandes leyendas de la música electrónica y mas bien diría de las 4 leyendas como Jimmy Van Malagan y por supuesto Nick warren, esta muy bueno!!!!!
Can someone recommend me more DVD like this from that time?
I LOVE DELTA HEAVY

Hi Tim! :) love you dirty bird
These were the days. It's a shame all turned into shit nowadays.
+Stuart Yeah this new generation don`t know shit about music so don`t expect anything good these days and will only get worst in the future I think past generations should do more to keep music alive
yeah, most EDM is rubbish these days, I reckon best years were 1999 to 2003 for progressive music
It's there if you know where to look. John is still absolutely crushing it.
lol theres tons and tons of great electronic music still just not the mainstream EDM garbage.

listen to Sasha airdrawndagger album immediately
Loved the progressive sound growing up Sasha being a big part of it but he comes across as a prick the few times I went to see him live was the same.
Sasha watches Eastenders?????? 🧐
