Description This Limited Edition Collector’s Box (strictly limited on 500 copies) contains Dixon's Live At Robert Johnson Vol. 8 with three placeholders for volumes 5, 6 and 7!

Live At Robert Johnson Vol. 8 is the last mix CD in the Live At Robert Johnson series and also Dixon's last mix in the CD format. Not only does it highlight Dixon’s relationship with the Robert Johnson club (a resident DJ there from day one), but also his special abilities to build a night. What you will experience here is the very start point of such an excursion. Postponing the appearance of something like a kick drum for almost thirty minutes, one is led through moments, tracks and songs that draw their inspirations from kosmische musik, ambient, kraut pop from various sources (Hauschka, P.Eladan, Domenique, Barnt) that slowly fade into Agoria and the likes of Axel Boman and the fascinating Cologne Tape before picking up speed with Mark E, Roman Fluegel and the climax that is Âme’s Osunlade remix with Todd Terje’s spellbinding Snooze 4 Love on its heels. Peppered with the notorious Dixon edits and his surgery here and there, Live at Robert Johnson Vol.8 might sadly not be the mix CDs lonely saviour, but it is definitely a testament to the fact that sometimes a little bit more effort makes all the difference – and the one you should get.
