20 years later, still one of the best dj sets ever performed. Doesn’t sound outdated at all. Even shitty recording quality gives it sort of flavor. #Oldschoolcool

Quite possibly the best essential mix ever, forward thinking, eclectic but without being too far up it’s arse. Absolute genius

Unkle and ColdCut were very inspirational to me. When I lived in LA I used to walk whilst listening to "Journeys by DJ" from Coldcut. I was the nobody who walked in LA and yes, this is great.

Still is mind blowing,like it was 20 years ago.

One of the greatest mixes I’ve _ever_ heard... and I’ve heard a tonne of ‘em.

Simply the epic best set of 00’s.❤

Leftfield x The Doors still is an unbeatable combo two decades later. =One Love= -A
