DJ Sneak dusts down his vinyl from the 90s and lays down a 50 minute mix, only on wax on our brand new PLX-1000's as a nod to our 20th Anniversary.
Featuring tracks from X-Press 2, Wildchild and Mr G. on labels like Henry Street, Classic, NRK, Cajual and Junior Boys Own this is a seminal mix.
I don't care how advanced technology gets...nothing beats the simplicity and rawness of a vinyl mix. Long live the wheels of steel!
There's a sweet spot in the middle imo. I've got all all vinyl but my mixer has digital effects. No looping but that just means I do it by hand. Having echo, delay, flanger, phaser, etc is amazing to have iwth vinyl
lol it aint even simple tho. but agreed vinyl is so classic and classy
i used to believe the same. Then I practiced, i understood and you are wrong. It's all prepared, he trained on this one.
@@walterbatler yo don't let me be misunderstood, i like the mix, and i like that there's prep work in the selection and track order. Yep there are very nice freestyle/impro skills there and thank God cuz this psychic bounty killa has been mixin for more than 30 years.... What u didn't understand is what i mean about "nothing beats the simplicity and rawness of a vinyl mix". I think it's wrong to say that cuz when u're used too mix vinyls records, u know u cannot beat someone who's good on usb decks. The reason is simple, 1 record costs between 6 and 40 dollars, an mp3 is only 2 dollars and u have much more choice. Which actually makes the sets a lot easier to build...
@@walterbatler you can listen to mine on my channel, it's a freestyle impro set and believe me, i had to test up to 5 tracks in my headphones before i was able to find one that sounded descent to keep going for an hour. At the end it's more efficient to prepare your sets, and it's easier when u have huuuge quantities of music
This is a real deja vu - Sneak was a huge inspiration for me - I once picked him up in 1995 from the airport, brought him to the decks and watched his entire set and he played exactly like a boss he`s doing here - As he finished, the first thing he said to me was " right.. So where can i get some sandwiches?"
haha. i love that. not where's the E, not i'm tired, anyone party? but - let's get some food, bro
All the guys from usa are like this. When Robert Armani stayed with ACV Records in Italy in his early days, most important for him was McDonalds
@@hotwax761 Americans DO love their food.....
What a fucking showman 😂
Damn I wish i could e experienced that lol
@@copeyhagen4249 yes we do! LoL cheers from the Smokey Mountains of east Tennessee!
This is how it was back in the day kids. No room for error, mistakes were heard. No back up beats or cd players and no fake djs. You worked for your dollars!
Best comment ever, cheers from Naples, Italy!
real djing
kids at these days don't know what they missing mixing with records is something special you feel the music .
Bah, stop it already, do u know how to play an instrument? Like guitar or something? Newby entitled dj...
@@pavle988 He never said something like this...there is "living room" dj and real dj it's a fact !
off topic total your comment but entering your game do you know how to conduct a philharmonic orchestra ?
it's not the right way to reason.
Unbelievable how soon he fades in before having properly beamatched the two tracks and then doing it live, most of the time with pitch slider instead of accelerating or slowing down the vinyl by hand directly.
I would totally die in front of a larger crowd.
Saw him in a big room disco in 1995, and instead of headphones he had a modified 70s telephone handset hooked up with which he could obviously barely prelisten at all, so beatmatching was even more on the fly than in this video.
Sounded still flawlessly.
I noticed that back then, he always seemed to save a record from the edge of a Trainwreck like he was Superman lol
A basic technique equipped by the hands of a master.
It really comes from hours of mixing I used to be hooked on just mixing would be infront of the decks everyday before you no it it all becomes second nature
Not allowing yourself to push and pull with your fingers and using the pitch slider only gets you locked better and when mastered just works better
This is why I still to this day listen to the old skool mixes and hunt down old house tracks because everyone had a different flow and way of doing things. Sadly nowadays everything sounds the same and the so called ‘DJs’ I hear now are identical in all aspects of the way they mix!
For those who really know, this guy is a LEGEND!!
+Basil Yes he is.
legend
+Basil 100 Agree !!! I Legend at worlk , amazing mix !
+Basil legend will never die... listen to him from his start. one of my fav
This brings me memories of my setup in my bedroom.. one plastic milk basket taken from school (96') filled with vinyl and one real record case (b-day gift) filled with more vinyl.. two Technics 1200s turntables, one Pioneer DJM-600 mixer and a pair of panasonic stereo monitors. The end of my bunk bed was my favorite spot in my room.. this is where all my equipment was hanging on a homemade shelf. LOL! Good times.
incredible subtlety. true mixing is when two records sound like one and the sneak does it every time.
This mix is tight as a drum. It's dynamic, it's pumping, the beatmatching is flawless, even got tasteful use of the delay. Good to see that for all the shit he talks on other DJs, he can back it up with some good and proper DJing. Thumbs up Mr. Sneak, you got game.
Sneak is sick man. His sets were a favorite at all the big raves in soCal when I was going 20 years ago. Thats how you know who the real deal is
Interesting how little he relies on the x-fade. Prefers to mix by bringing in the line levels, and adjusts the bass/mid way more than I ever would have expected.
He doesn’t need a sync button he learnt the real way.
@@chrismurray3198 dude even knows folks like daft punk so he's gotta be well respected in the industry
He is the man, so the man. Sneak KILLED IT !!
Listen children, I'm gonna tell you about this thing called house music...You did it Sneak! This is a lesson to all of us. Every DJ should listen and learn from this lesson, no matter what tools you use. This is the basement of it all. RESPECT
We used to go uphill, both ways!! Lol! to a venue certainly on the Detroit police departments list to be raided - and the bathrooms...shesh...
Totally worth every single year of it. Best youth ever.
THIS...IS...AMAZING. Thank you for the time machine back to better days.......two turntables and a lot of sweat. Long live DJ Sneak. Chicago House.
I came across this mix two weeks ago, and I can't stop listening to it. house music will never die!!!! this is a true DJ!! just like Bad Boy Bill, Julian Jumpin Perez, To Kool Chris. just Chicago's Best!!! No freaking Aoki, Tiesto, and many more that I can't think of because they are irrelevant.
So true mate ☺
Do you know what "irrelevant" means"? I don't think you do. This guy's videos are him playing attics, basements, mostly empty beaches. Tiesto and aoki or whatever play huge festivals. These are facts, okay. Not opinions, but facts. A lot of people on the internet can't seem to distinguish the two, so it's important i point that out.
Now you can be a fan of this guy all you want, taste is subjective, but to compare him to guys mainstaging festivals just makes you look stupid.
Hercules Brofister those other DJs wouldn't have a leg to stand on if it wasn't for people like DJ Sneak who put in real work to build this culture.
Alfonso Mireles what about CZR????

what a fucking set!! mixed to perfection
Do you happen to know what record is playing at 17:25 with the eco sounds??
@Denis Groshev Thank you dude! You rock!
These DJ sets are a blow to the heart, a longing for a past that will never return. Vinyl will always win!
Sneak is one of the greatest DJs. I love his deep, filtered funk and disco sample! #fuckedm
Is it such an unrealistic goal that to sound just as good as this? lol he's amazing.
it's not. Prepare everything. Work a month on it. then prepare 10 others. You need the structure of each tracks, know when you're gonna throw them, that there won't be 2 melodies that won't match and buy only "Sneaky" records. Meaning you need to listen ands look pretty much only for this kind of music. Achieving good vinyls sets is a work. I tried, i don't have enough records, keys that match, and the structures of the track are just shit (meaning it's turning all round and round, there are fills, weird breaks. If you improvise and think u can reach this, u can't, you must know every steps of each records. If your work hard and dedicate yourself only to this style, you can. Improvising isn't an option. Watch his moves, he mixed it way more than once. One of your options to improvise would be avoiding records with unclassical structures (and write the strucuture of each tracks : 64, 64, break , 64 64 64 64 fill, break 64 with melodies, 64 outro. U gotto know when the melody begins. Some records even begin like this 22/fill 4/ 32 / very long and boring intros, a break that begins on the 29th and last 62 plus 16. class them by musical keys and know how keys change when you pitch them and how. And you need lots of records, lots lots lots. Keep your impossible records in a crate, and DO NOT TOUCH THESE ANYMORE. First transition is very weird. One last thing, the best djs in the world will pretend they improvise just to justify the weakness of their mix here and there, there are mistakes in this mix (but i like it). Count a Sneak record, you'll get my point. you will find an outro at 3min30, if you don't take it, your mix will sound weak ... (so you gotta know what's the next record is cuz you barely have the time to improvize anything, check the sound level, understand the structure of the next track, and prepare a proper transition in your headphones, especially if you blend the one below for 2 minutes, what will be left is 1min30 to find your next record and prepare a transition in your headphones...can you? cuz i can't and i have thousands of hours at it). Even for a very good pitch rider, it's something that is not possible. ua-cam.com/video/Dt6-uVQPORg/v-deo.html&embeds_referring_euri=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.discogs.com%2F&embeds_referring_origin=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.discogs.com&source_ve_path=MjM4NTE&feature=emb_title

I cant stop watching this! This is what its all about. Sneak is so sick and he has these house tracks banging in my head all day..He is and will always be my favorite house mix dj..a true dj he is..and vinyl is where he belongs for sure. Thanks Dj Sounds for having the best!
Some of us are keeping vinyl alive. I JUST started and am going all vinyl. Got 700+ records from hip hop, rnb, and various edm genres
90's was the best years for House ! DJ Sneak is a great DJ !
Great execution. Wish overhead video like this was displayed at all dj type shows.
I remember Sneak back in the day, in Chicago me Matty B, Bad Boy Bill, Jumping Julian and many many others in the true age of DJ's. when you had to know how to mix lol! Now get the other 2 decks kicking.
Why does almost every music genre from 90's (House, Techno, Hip-Hop, Hard Rock etc) sounds better than most of today's music?
I think its because of its disco and funk roots
because it was mostly made with analogic machines and the sound is warmer
Because today's mainstream music has no welcome for individual creativeness it's all about programming and pushing an agenda nothing to do with talent all about being a messenger , im sure there are many talented musicians but they are cancelled and never heard it's just the sign of the times.
Music today is made for the social media 'like' mentality even the so called dj's are all in it for image over substance.
Because copyright caught up with the electronic dance and what was a staple of the genre of dance music was sampling. At no one’s fault but the finicky rules the soul, funk, gospel, r&b, rap has been “wrung” out of the music. You have to remember what ran the music out of America in the first place and that was the American music and entertainment media putting a homophobic and racist tiny on it so the black music scene essentially ran from it so that may be a reason it has lost some but not all of its taste. Thanks to our European brethren they have kept it alive
What a great set here! Damn that's so fun to see his work on the mixer, he is such a fast mover with his skills being so deep after so many thousands of hours on the decks! Amazing tracks in here and absolutely SNEAK flavor!
Hands of an old school house GOD Nothing cant stop u while this is being played
This is what excited me about house music real djs with real talent and no sync button in sight. Miss those days
Vinyl or die!!! Huge huge respect DJ Sneak!!
YES! And Sneak starts with an all-time favorite track of mine. This is one of my first house 12" records.
So? What's the name! Tell us!
DJ Sneak 'Show Me The Way' from The Polyester EP.
Thank you!
wow!!! these kids today have no idea what a real house dj sounds like!!! love the mix takes me back to the 90s when I first saw you at a warehouse in Chicago spinning vinyl!! Very much love Sneak I have your vinyl too...fix your sink,Pound for pound....oh man my list goes on and on:)
A true talent he brought us great times and fun in the 90s Torontos lucky enough to have him Vinyl junkie here
I want to start by saying great set all vinyl no flash or fluff pure talent. Now for the trolls who have a negative comments about the set. Post up a 1 hour long mix set with vinyl and no mistakes then talk.
Oh yeah! the PLX's are nice as well..
jhenry248 Jesus this is absolutely amazing. This dude got me into house in the 90's.
צנהכה
It's not like a guitar or vocal where you can be 'out in front' of the beat by a little. With turntables you ahve to be so much more precise. It's kinda stressful tbh
With "fake" Technics as well ;)
Now this brings me back...oh how I miss vinyl
Saw him about ten years ago in Malibu under a Mad max tent. One of the best sets i have seen live. Sneak is a LEGEND.
watching him mixing is almost hypnotizing!
What he does with tracks 9-12 is a such a fucking eargasm. The camera on the mixer helps you appreciate it even more. Absolute work!
So Sick + So Pure = So True
DJ Sneak do your thing
I really miss those days,
Bring them back
A true dj. Someone who never takes the headphones of during a mix
Don't usually see the host get so enthused haha. He was looking at every record that Sneak was laying down :D
love this, real skills and a superb selection 👍 He's so talented, relaxed and that's one tight vinyl mix... massive respect!
This is so awesome , sneak putting it down on wax. "illmatic" set. thank you Djsounds show and of course Sneak.
LOVE IT GUYS I REMEBER GOING TO PARTYS HERE IN CHICAGO ROCKIN TO DJ SNEAK SETS AND ALL THE PARTY CREWS BACK IN THE DAY.......THATS WHY IM STILL DJING TODAY DJ SNEAK 111111111111111111
DJMETHOD1 Lucky bugger. I only saw him once in a random small bar in London in about 1995.
I had the chance to catch dj sneak all over Chicago in the early 90s .
Now heres a DJ who loves his work :D Love how he gets into the music from time to time, great set :)
This is perfect. I like also to see his writings on all the labels "Dope shit..." etc.
The origins of house!! One of my favourite mixes on UA-cam! Sneak is the man!
great memories...this set does not get old.
We had a long time to see a dj set with vinyls and finally we see it from Pioneer TTs !!! Wake up Technics
come on guys, this deserves way more views...come on...at least 20 mil. :)
This is a work DJ. Vinyl is the real way to saw a DJ performance. Today whit CDJ any one can mix...
I still love listening to this set, even though it was six years ago now.
timeless
@@Hardbody94 listened to it again yesterday ha ha
Some thoughts...Sneak is under appreciated as one of the pioneers from the 90's Chicago sound (Czr is another Chi town Latin brother from the same era)... Nothing beats a live set on vinyl--nothing....before there was "edm" there were parties in old roller skate rinks and abandoned warehouses. This music completely took me back to that era and those locations...makes me sad that this cat relocated to Toronto and Ibiza. Would have been awesome to have him here in Chicago more often.
I absolutely agree. Believe it or not, I first met Sneak when he was an Art Instructor at a Boys and Girls Club in Humboldt Park, Chicago that I was affiliated with...
One of the BEST technicians on the decks! Saw him so many times live in LA. Always killer sets. True Legend.
DJ Sneak is by far one of the best!
What a legend - Magnificent!
A lot of these tracks aren't exactly my cup of tea, but I can't deny that Sneak has amazing talent. It's always great watching an all vinyl set.
Michael L Why are they not your cup of tea out of interest? Too repetetive? Too slow? Not enough vocals? Not a trick question, I'm quite interested.
ibuprofen303 Mainly a combination of it being too repetitive, and at times there's just too much going on at once. There were definitely some tracks that I enjoyed, but i just can't get into many of the others.
Michael L
Oh ok thanks for taking the time to reply. Yes this Chicago style compared to the modern style can be quite ''full'' sounding and repetetive in almost a trancey-type fashion. It's not such a common style anymore, I guess minimal took over some years back. Reason I asked is I play quite a lot of this style. Call it market research :)
There's a wicked Sven Vath Berlin Techno mix somewhere on here if that's more your cup of tea.
I could watch it all day, and i do..
.My god the memories!!!!!!!!Iremember when we first booked him in Cali in 1994 !!
In the beginning there was JACK... and jack had a groove and from this groove came the grooves of all grooves and while one day viciously throwing down on his box jack boldly declared LET THERE BE HOUSE and house music was born
Great Mix! flashbacks..I did a wax set last year. I roled in 2 crates with a small dolly & a 23yr old Fridge looking security asked "what the hell is that?" I said its my laptop. lol..great times.
Cutting it short to the break with doubles was action back then! now with editing songs on a program is a headache! lol.. you took me back!! 🎧
He mixes so good.Loving this,using this for my creative process.
Like Dj Sneak, very old School.
real djing,real mixing.. Not clown,not fake!
brother got soul.....track at minute 23 is sick!!!!!!! werkkk
This is what i call skill
He just manipulates music. Bends it to his will. The force and skill are strong on this one
Sosa laying down the heat. what a don.
Such a nice set and I love those new Turntables..
Beautifully done . Love the vibe of the mix !

You always know his going to put on a quality set!!
Merci ! Quelle démonstration.. J'me rend compte que ma façon de jouer est relativement similaire. C'est rassurant. Quelle classe ! 🙏
PÉPÉ L'HERMITE GÉANT 🐸

Los Angeles In Da "House"!!!
Sergeant333 so is Chicago
He's a Chicago guy
Dopest 90's vinyl set! Sneak never disappoints.
How i miss those days ....
Thank you DJ SNEAK, LOVE YOUR MUSIC
I wish more promoters would book DJ's and ask them to do a all vinyl set.
then no one will know what to do. :)
pal, it's a technology, and everybody should use what they feel confortable with. If you apply the same logic you're using to software engineering we wouldn't have facebook, twitter, youtube or any other platform without decades of development (low level, and even assembly code, if not machine code if taken to the sheer extreme) and stuff other people already did. Cheers :)
Yes! Cause I want to listen to the same beat for 8 minutes at a time.
@juan What are you going on about? I'm not saying DJ's shouldn't use technology, but it would be nice for a DJ to play an all vinyl set or even bust out the odd vinyl and play it during a set. I'm certainly not anti technology.
John Lucas oh i see, sorry i didn't mean to be rude or disrespectful. Actually i would really like you to explain me why do you like vinyl, i actually got to learn how to use turntables and vinyls, but i am myself a tech guy so it really was too much of a hassle to me, it would be really good to see your point of view so i can also improve my views on tt's :D cheers buddy!
Gorgeous set.
The beauty of mix with vinyl
Tocaaaa muitoooooo Sneakk! Real DJ...Set perfeito!
incredible set from start to finish
Holy moly! Cheers for upload chaps!
Yeah!!
Amazing thank you 4 this :)
Finally some vinyl and 90's music on this show and not only house
Please do more of this 90's music(Hip hop /r&b )
An absolute gem!
Thats what i call propper mixing!! I have alot vinyl where sneak has done a remix on the flip side and they are allways banging. I cant believe i have only just found this set!!!!! Time to dust off the old 1200's 😎
Absolutley fantastic Sneak loved every minute of this set, nice to see you have fun on a set of turntables, All good using cdj`s but the fun you have mixing on vinyl is way above that.
this is SUCH a good set.
oohh glad i found this bookmark,, do remember when i first bookmarked this in like 2015 thinkin if theirs any colleges out there doin dj courses This is a full on DJing masterclass,, not to mention his epic EQing but his absolutely stunning pitch control mixing is beautiful,, no touching vynil or platter to pitch bend (like they do these days even on synced CDJ's which really baffles me) his pitch control is legendary,, great to see him doin it with CDJ's in later sets also, something ive always emulated on my vynil & CDJ decks after seeing sneak -- DJ Sneak The House Master
This is absolutely awesome!
So banging track at 21:21 !!! Mike Grant - The Struggle of my People (Mr G's There's Hope Mix)
What a feet with: The Chicago Connection - Dancin' (Mark Grant Mix) in 1997 - So good Cajual records!
I recommend the middle of the mix which is so funky: play it LOUD ! Thank you Dj Sneak!
Really Great Show and special thank's to Dj Sneak. Like you say at the end - Keep it Fresh ! ;) Peace
no doubt. this is djing at its finest. i remember when vinyl was the only option..
