    Zillions. Never saw saunderson at The Complex (which is what I assume you're referring to when you say "that crappy overdone place in angel" - incidentally, I think it was one of Londons best ever Techno venues, but anyway :lol: ) but spent many, many nights there. Mills at Lost in Nov 98, you must have the wrong year - he was boycotting the U.K at that time, and his 1st gig back was at Mass in Feb 99 - perhaps you mean in 97, in the awesome Royal Victoria Docks venue? (With Broom and Autechre in Room 2, and Tanaka also in the main room?) Absolutely seminal night, I wish that many, many, many of the "younger generation" of techno fans could have been there, it was that much of a milestone for what Techno is all about. Pure class, and back then, nobody could touch Mills, nor Lost for that matter. :clap: :love:
    I have too many massive nights that shine in my memory, every Lost since 97, Club UK, Complex, Sabresonic, Strutt, Analogue City, Eurobeat 2000, Ultimate Base...the list is absolutely endless.

    yeah i did get that wrong...i mean in nov 97...the time you mention with fumiya tanaka and with autechre in the lounge area...that was a hell of a night, for sure

    for some reason i seem to have dyslexia about 97 and 98...yarg...BUT...on the boycott thing...i did happen to see him spin at this internet cafe on golden square where he was also displaying some of his purposemaker photos, and i'm almost certain that was in spring 1998...though it wasn't a club...

    and yes, the complex. my problem with the place was not the djs...i also saw joey beltram spin a good set there, as well as advent live another time...i just found the space itself overdone...always thought it was a bit too much for my tastes...my favorite at the time was the end...

    i was at ultimate base every week...one of the yank students who got there before 9 to beat the cover ;)

    man, those were the DAYS, bro!

    The Complex was OK - saw Mills down there and can just remember seeing steam pouring out of a side door and 7am daylight creeping into the place.

    However, Sven Vath at Orbit in Leeds 1995 ish seeing people hanging from the balcony pumping their fists like their lives depended on it or
    Luke Slater at Glastonbury (199?) top the list.

    Slightly off topic - that´s the first I ever heard of a Mills UK boycott. What was that all about??

    Default Top 10 DJ sets...

    1. Jeff Mills @ Tribal Gathering 1997: Kraftwerk then Mills? Heaven. Millls was sublime. The event was the beginning of the end...

    2. Daft Punk @ Tribal Gathering 1996: No one had heard of Daft Punk, the tent was half empty and i witnessed the best live set to date. Blew everyone away with a full on techno assault. They never reproduced that sound in any of there tracks or matched that performance. They did an essential mix that was dire and lost the plot years ago.

    3. Sasha @ Space, Ibiza 1995. He played in the inside room which was then brilliant and played 3 hours of acid house, it was amazing.

    4. Speedy J @ Atomic Jam, Q-Club 2002?. A live set via 2 x SU700. It was ridicules. Hawtin came on after and it was embarrassing.

    5. Dave Clarke @ Atomic Jam, Q-Club 1997. A white screen and 1 DC, blinding! Followed by Chris Liberator who also played a blinder! Came out and was told Diane was dead....

    6. DJ Rush & Beyer @ The End, London 1997?. Think it was 1997. DJ RUSH followed by 3 hours of 3 deck magic, by the then master, Beyer.

    7. Adam Beyer @ The Orbit, Morley. NYE 1998?, Again, think it was 1998. Beyer was electric, IMHO his best ever performance.

    8. Riche Hawtin @ Cocoon - Amnesia, Ibiza 2002. A blinder, finished off with his own rendition of 'Dark & Long' and room went ballistic.

    9. Darren Emerson @ Bugged Out, Liverpool 1999 - Emerson came on after DC who had come on after LS live set. Given LS live set was brilliant, he played a fantastic set to end the night. The other room Derrick May has cleared the dance floor, again.

    10. Iain Von Trapp (RIP) @ Anywhere. Every time I heard Iain played learnt something. A true innovator and a true inspiration.

    Nothing in the last 5 years has really inspired be and as for minimal 'ket' techno...hhmmm

    It was because someone threw a bottle of water at his mate Laurent garnier at the orbit one night I think. If my memory serves me rightly I heard this in the superconductor telephone interview he did

    A few to mention. I wasn't at either josh wink/dave clarke essential mix or speedy j haffentunnel 1200bpm oh and Anthony Rother sonne mond sterne but they are my favorite recordings I have
    Plastikman at phoenix 96 and kraftwerk march 2005 were prob my most treasured. Plastikman in 96 was at a time when we are all finishing school and that was "the summer" most of my mates at phoenix wanted to see indie and i fully found dance music on my own and I think phoenix was a lucky break, the line up was amazing

    surgeon @ 12 years tresor (march 03)

    not very old but my first time at tresor and ill never forget it. just the perfect set for me. old stuff, fresh stuff (actual at 2003) and some of his unique reworks. i still enjoy listening to it nowadays.

    Thats a deadly set alright!! Wouldnt be May's best but tune selection was amazing!!

    I dont know if its the very best one I have ever seen but it's definitely up there and for that reason deserves a mention..................Kan Shinomura - Live @ The Village, Dublin

    Not quite.
    He wasn't happy with the way he was treated at U.K immigration, was complaining of being detained for unnecessary periods of time, every time.
