Favourite Boiler Room set?

While the visual spectacle is frequently cringe-inducing, there's been some great mixing on these. Just stumbled on this one by Mr Thing:



He's fucking great. Selection, mixing, doubling, scratching, all so well done.

    Ooh, I'm interested in this topic.  Not sure I can contribute - have only watched bits here an there. 

    I'll agree that the visuals are boooooring; much prefer the zaniness of Just Jam sessions

    Ha! I love that you tagged Anklepants, which is easily thee worst Boiler Room ever. Mr. Thing is dope. I also really liked Romare’s set, which really starts at the 4:00 mark https://youtu.be/JNtSoT1YTWk

    it's not the best one, but not knowing the artist at all before, this sessions has won me over:

    I had to really think about this one, because I've only seen so many Boiler Room sets. There's lots of talent on there, and it's hard to mentally go back and remember which ones were really fun. Then today at work I remembered this great Adrian Younge dj set. Yeah, so he's dressed like Thurston Howell III while djing in the heat of the Palm Desert. Yeah, and so what he's playing lots of common records that most of us already own. Yeah, and so maybe I'm a little biased, because I've spun with him once before in Las Vegas. Yeah, and so what if he's hard needle dropping these records and there's a couple of flaws. IDGAF

    His musical selection is on point. He's spinning his personal vinyl. He's just vibing, and playing cuts from his private mind garden. This is the kind of DJ set any respectable SoulStrutter should get behind. Fists held high in solidarity. 



    PS, If you can't get with any of these tracks you're a straight up bitch. Sorry you had to find out this way.

    That Adrian Younge just played while I was making dinner and I couldn't think of a better accompaniment. Good call Spidey.

    I liked the DJ Museum Of Modern Art set, but it looked like a Dolce & Gabbana commercial - tres cool.
