  • Oldskool is a feeling. It's the feeling you get when you're dancing with 1000 other people, the feeling of pure euphoria and unity, when you feel so great you just want to scream - when you're listening to rave tunes blasting and you can feel yourself lifting higher and higher. When you can talk to a stranger and feel as if you've known them all your life. Oldskool wasn't in the just 90s, it was there all along, and is simply a weekend away! Get out in a field and MAKE SOME FUCKING NOISE! PLUR!

  • Hi there DJ Cotts, I left a comment a couple of years ago when on the strength of your upload I bought the album. Up in the middle of the night away from home playing chess online and needed some of 'my' music so thought I would see if your mix was still on YT, glad to see it is. You make an old raver very happy! Respect.

  • Fucking ch00ns! Nice mix mate!

  • It's funny because I have no idea what all those things do :D

  • If we had the technology 20 years ago to produce music to this quality then this is as close as you can get to what the old skool would have sounded like...... IMHO

  • Weren't you on BlogTV?

  • Not quite OLD SKOOL though,still good.

  • Quality All the best (splashnetradio)

  • Mate you have great talent of making music !!!

  • cotts best dj ever greeetz from germany!!! Mwproduction moooooooooafuckazz lübeck hometownzzz niggazzzz

  • @stohammed du oller besoffski du!

  • I love old skool dance music from 1987-1992.

    But l don't like "Ravebreaks" sorry. Reasons:

    1. Distorted snare drums, takes pleasure out of hearing the melody

    2. Distorted bassline, takes pleasure out of hearing melody

    3. Permanent uplifting piano chorus - takes the pleasure out of feeling pleasure

    4. Everything gets filter swept - sweeping the music under the carpet

    Return back to the steady beat, and the melody. That's the old skool for me.

    Nice gear you have btw.

  • @hatloverxxx SPOT ON

  • nice goin!! bring it on :)

  • Not really into that genre of music. Wicked mix all the same. Respect bruv!

  • Awesome bruv...

  • RUSH! :D

  • Any chance of you uping this mix in Soundcloud mate?

    

  • yes yes yes ..respect to the NEW OLD SKOOL :)

  • Still not got the same vibe somehow, almost, but not quite! better than some of the crap about nowadays though! :-)

  • THIS IS INCREDIBLE!!!

    

  • AWESOME !!! thx

  • nice, does take me back... yet sounds new at the same time

  • too cheesey for me

  • Really strong mix,,forget tiesto give me carl cox,sasha,jon digweed,darren emmerson,liam howlett anyday.tiesto is a superstar dj and that is not what it was all about back then,most underground dj's wont be seen in the same light as that sell out,keep up the good work bud,,old skool crew,,,eclipse,vision,dreamsca­pe,fantazia,perception,amnesia­,,respect

  • everybody knows what your talkin about when u here the mixs and certain tunes on this, DJ COTTS whack out more of this stuff as much as you can!!!! 12:10 to 12:30, listen and even try turn it off... Unreal!!!!

  • absolute quality..had to email it to my self....::))))))

  • Na I am still 100% 1988. 1990 u know its the best the summer of love .... Dup

  • gonna put this stuff on a disc woohoo

  • Ravebreak's is making a massive comeback. Hell with Hardcore and this is coming from someone who used to mix it.

    Nothing wrong with Tiesto from the 90's/00 period. Just like most dj's these day's he sold out. Not that I'm saying there is anything wrong with electo. I love electro house. But he should have stuck to his gun's.

  • Well this is great this is what the music needs bring back the old the hell with tiesto

  • I could masturbate to this mix.

  • @NocturnalNymph9 hahahahah nah man have sex while u hear it.... LETHAL OH Yeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!

  • That is some setup.

  • Dude i want you to play my next birthday please.  XD

  • Watched Slipmatt live at the Barn in Portsmouth, England last saturday, crazy night!!!

  • gotta love the old skool breakbeats and piano puts uk hardcore(clubland) to shame

  • @matrixdj

    Clubland ' hardcore is simply pitchbent original clubland' It's what ruined the UK/ Upfront Hardcore scene.

  • its good to see someone using pitch control these days, too many syncbutton users these days tht say it lets em be 'more creative'..........sync button is not creative, it just takes more than half the effort out of mixing

  • Nothing like a good breakbeat to keep you dancing all night long

  • Absolutely loving this style of breaks! I love the energy in these tunes. Nice contrast from the usually filthy drops you get from nu skool. Could have the two side by side all mix and it'd sound awesome.

  • This is awesome! Just bought the album off itunes

  • lovin it man, upload more!!!

  • NICE!!

  • cotts you are totally right! ravebreaks is an awesome genre, i would really like to see some dubstep artists experiment with this genre, possibly get a totally new sound out there! anyways, props from michigan u.s.a. ^^,

  • back in 2000/01 nu skool breaks started to sneak into the rave/dance scene. alot of the stuff sampled oldskool hardcore/jungle. Looks as though ravebreaks is the natural progression from that.

  • i live near you !

  • WICKED BIG UP THE OLD SKOOL HARDCORE RAVERS.. RAVEBRREAKS IS SOUNDING HARD... CHECK ME OUT DO A SEARCH ON YOUTUBE FOR DJ WRECKLESS 2010 AKA MC DTM HARDCORE

  • Not a bad set keep it old school

  • dj cotts, your mixes are amazing, loving them, could you help me with something? im wondering where i could get equipment like yours, obviously with a smaller price tag lol?

  • sounds a bit like break beat :o

  • Good stuff. Only wish is less fannying about and get the tunes in quicker, 3 mins a tune is plenty.

  • Not too keen on this style of music, but man.... you sick!!!!!!! Awesome Dj skills

  • dj cotts I really need to download this mix, can u or anyone help us

  • @robbie7819 - To donload it, as a last resort you could use firefox browser and the videodownload helper add-on/extension. Click "Download & Convert" on the high-quality stream (choose mp3). That's what I do.

  • awesome!! - i have an extensive collection of early 90s break mixes on cassette tapes and you my friend have just inspired me to get back into it!!!!

  • killer mix

  • unbelivable .....best mix ever

  • 2:30 so though of prodigy straight away....

  • EPICCCC

  • This is just amazing to watch. You never get to see the creation process while at raves. I wish I could half of what you can with that board. Lovin' what its all about, keep the music flowin' yo!

  • I got into happy hardcore when I was a kid. Nine years old. I found this cassette tape at the airport in Seattle, WA. I later found out it was the genre RAGGAJUNGLE. There was also old skool stuff on it. Some "RUFFNECK" track by EZ Rollers was on it. Super catchy dancy lyrics. Very LA BOUCHE sounding, with happier vibe, and upbeat dancy tunes.

    This takes my back to when I first heard electronic music. You work miracles man. Long live the nineties! I love your mixes PLEASE MORE!

  • more like this

  • whats the tune that comes in at 30.00, its not on the rave anthems cd an i really want this tune .

  • lots of toys mate! ..huge investment unles it puts coins back in your account...

  • What type of turntables are u using? I am startig to dj and don't like when they have a needle.

  • @randompencilcase they r pioneer cdj turntables i think but if ur just starting they r to expensive for u. just go get a basic cdj/mixer setup from craigslist or something.

  • wow dude damn u got some skills and a pretty nice system im a dj too do your turn tables say pioneer or numark ? but tht stuff is good...

  • My god, such a great mix. I just love it. So pleeease does anybody has a tracklist for this incredibly phantastic mix.
