This mix may be a little too much 4 on the floor for you Plump DJ breakbeat loving folks but it’s around the time the duo started heading into the more tech hybrid breakbeat type of music. It is some peak time festival music with a bunch of EDM bangers to boot and some interesting Plump sounds that they are known for, take it or leave it.
The Essential Mix is a weekly radio show broadcast on BBC Radio 1 and features many styles of electronic dance music. It was originally the brainchild of Eddie Gordon, the producer of the show from the first broadcast in 1993 to 2001. The show has been presented since its inception by Pete Tong and features an uninterrupted two-hour mix from a different artist each week, overlaid with occasional continuity announcements delivered by Tong. With a broadcast run in excess of 25 years, the Essential Mix is one of the longest-running programmes in the current BBC Radio 1 schedule. It is one of very few Radio 1 shows which is not broadcast live.
This Essential Mix is from the Plump DJs recorded back in 2003.

From over 20 years ago the quality of the is mix still sounds as fresh as today. This mix was aired on the BBC Radio’s weekly progamme called The Breezeblock or Breezeblock as it was known. The Breezeblock first premiered back in 1997 and focused mainly on electronic music, the show was hosted by Mary Anne Hobbs and eventually got renamed to Mary Anne Hobbs: BBC Radio 1’s Experimental Show in 2006.
This legendary mix from the Plump DJs shows just how ahead of their time they were in the Breaks genre and what made them into the legendary and well known breaks act they are today.
