The first ever Essential Mix 1993.

Here is the first ever Essential mix.  It was done by Pete Tong in 1993.  It is hard to believe that its been nearly 20 years since the Essential mix started.

Personal favourites over the years have been Tony de Vit, Tall Paul, TWA, Pete Wardman and David Holmes.

This mix does sound a bit dated now.  But its real slice of history.  This mix came out in the days before mass market mix CDs, MP3S and the Internet.

Its was so difficult to get DJ mixes so when the Essential mix started it was something really new and exciting.  I remember many a Sunday morning getting back from a club and taping these mixes.

Pete tong has never really been my favourite DJ.  But credit where credit is due for bringing us these mixes.

Watch out for many more links to mixes in the future.
