This was an exclusive mix for a while and now we’re sharing it with everybody. Do NOT sleep on this one kids, it’s Derrick Carter at his best. If you haven’t grabbed the other Derrick Carter mix be sure to search for it on the site and get it as well. Dj Sneak said it was one of his favorite Derrick Carter mixes PERIOD!

Genius at work.
#3 by Pete from Chicago at September 23rd, 2009
I thought that he sounded pretty bad for what I’ve heard from him in the past.
#4 by James at September 29th, 2009
Meh. DC has lost his touch in recent years. His last really great set was Live @ Shockers, Amsterdam, ID&T Radio in 2002. You know the one – it began with an acapella of Raphael Saddiq feat D’Angelo – ‘Be Here’. Nothing but boring bumpity bumpity Chicago loops nowadays…

Does anyone have a tracklist?
#6 by Rahim at October 26th, 2009
I like the sound for the most part but what language are the people speaking on (59:00 thru 01:08:00)?
Makes me want to look for more of his work.
#7 by Yiga at October 30th, 2009
not the best ive heard from him
#8 by Will at November 26th, 2009
Does Anyone know by chance what the tracks are ?? . thanks

Just goes to show how, even someone like DC, can polarize music fans. I think this is one of the best recorded sets I’ve heard from DC in years – on par with stuff like his 2002 (I think) Essential Mix. It’s got a nice uptempo groove all the way through it, some call it same ole’ boompty, I call it funky – either way I like it. Now, if I could only find out what the track he drops in at 27:50 is, I’d be all jolly!

What can i say other than BRILLIANT!!! From beginning to end – ‘Ive got this feeling its in my feet foot stomping music and a funky beat’. Keep it Real Master of Disaster:-)
#11 by john at August 12th, 2010

#12 by franck at March 17th, 2011

#13 by Dale at April 22nd, 2011
Thanks for the post! I only have one mix tape with Carter on one side, so it’s awesome to collect some more…
#14 by Dennis at April 25th, 2011
This is awesome… I’ve been listening to it for the past half hour while surfing. Thanks!
#15 by Gina Cittone at April 27th, 2011
Long live DC! Long live Chicago house!
(and long live free podcasts!)

@James
i know what you’re saying. it’s less…innovative, maybe?
#17 by Mark Truman at May 1st, 2011
oh come on, haters — this is a sick mix!
#18 by JOHNSON at May 1st, 2011
YA SEE! HAHAAH
#19 by Timothy Ito at May 2nd, 2011
Thanks for both mixes! If anymore come your way, can ya throw em up here?
#20 by Scott at May 6th, 2011
I love this site! Where do you get all this music from?
#21 by Morris B. at May 13th, 2011
I saw DC in 2000. Changed my life. I’m always looking for new mixes. Much appreciated.
#22 by Walter at May 18th, 2011
THIS is it! Good tempo, a technical virtuoso, gimme more!
#23 by Dan Claybor at May 27th, 2011
Nice beat; I love this kind of music. It reminds me of when I used to live in Atlanta. Keep up the good work; you’re very talented.
#24 by Quinn at May 30th, 2011
Thanks for the download capability — too often I’ve come across mixes that can only be streamed…
#25 by Viper at July 3rd, 2011
Nice mix, impossible to tell it’s 3 years old.
#26 by Chase at July 4th, 2011
Carter is the king. I’m waiting for him to be unseated from his throne. I’ll collect his mixes forever…
#27 by Kate Williams at July 5th, 2011
After hearing this mix he might just be the king! Looks like I’ll be adding another artist to my “must listen to list”. Thanks
#28 by Ursula at July 23rd, 2011
I’ve already listened through this mix twice… DJ Sneak was right!
#29 by Frank Sliding Mirror Doors at August 6th, 2011
Carter is an absolute legend.. His mixes have featured at the top of my Ipod for ages… I agree with Quinn too the download quality is exceptional – thanks for sharing..
#30 by Kerry Enser at August 21st, 2011
I have to say, the only thing that would make it better would be seeing it live. It’s actually challenging for me to just listen to tracks like this without hearing it on huge speakers in a club…
#31 by JOHNSON at August 21st, 2011
first heard this about 2 years ago, and till this day i still get that “feeling” around 1 hour in…..ridunkulous!!
#32 by Bob Miller at September 4th, 2011
I’d love to hear this live too. This is ridiculously amazing!
-Bob from Cape Town Architects
#33 by Little Phil at September 24th, 2011
I heard him last night in our home town of Chicago…
Still on top…
#34 by Oren K. at September 25th, 2011
I can’t believe it’s been 3 years since this was created… fresh as ever.
#35 by Ward at October 2nd, 2011
Derrick is amazing.. thanks for posting this
#36 by Michael at October 12th, 2011
Anyone know if more of his tracks are available on iTunes?
#37 by Alex at November 6th, 2011
Yes, a lot more tracks are available on iTunes. Just search for them and you’ll find them, Michael.
#38 by Klaus at January 7th, 2012
What is the first track? TIA
#39 by Alberto at January 17th, 2012
Liked it a lot, especially the second track.
