Excellent DVD - Region 1 only, so beware September 26, 2008 T. Clarke (UK) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I've been a fan of Alex and Diggers for many years now, so this DVD has been been repeatedly played for along time. If you've just started to come into the progressive and tech filled world of Sasha and Digweed, then this is an excellent choice of documentary/filming that will bring you up to speed on not just how a tour is dealt with, but a scattered history of the 2 DJ's, along with a genuinely non-rehearsed script/filming style that is at times very funny.
I'm a DJ myself and have many friends who know Alex in person, and this DVD pretty much sum's up the quite mysterious, unknown personality that surrounds the two DJ's, which was fantastic on my first viewing as I used to see them as idols. Alex is very much the front man who speaks on behalf of the duo; his slightly quiet appearance however exsists only as a barrier to people he doesn't know, which is typical of quiet people like myself. As you soon see however, he's actually a genuinely nice fella who just wants to get "ratted" on any occasion possible!
Digweed is perhaps my favorite though. He appears quiet, quite content, and has a genuine passion for his music, as well as having the odd laugh with Alex. He is also patient and is quite the role model to any young DJ out there, for he connects with anyone involved with the tour, and guests alike, as if they're already great friends.
The film itself is an hour long, and the structure basically forms the tour from the initial heading off in the marvelous tour bus (I think we could all do with one of these babies!) to the setting up at venues, playing on a yacht, seeing their hotel bedrooms, and lots, lots, more, which is fantastic for an hour long film. My favorite event is indeed the yacht evening, in which Alex and Diggers play a collection of gorgeous down-tempo numbers, some of which were 'new' as on Sasha's new album of the time. The way it is captured on camera is very emotional, and the scenes of the harbour/sea are gorgeous - jealousy will creep in, I guarantee it!!
A tracklisting is also on the back of the DVD case, and extra features on the disc just include an interview, etc...
As stated in the title, this is a Region 1 DVD - It is an American release, meaning that it will ONLY play on a UK DVD player if it is UNLOCKED or "Region Free"....... Hopefully you should all be aware of this by now with DVD's. Also because of this, you my find the DVD is 'slightly' lower in frame rate than UK DVD's. This is perfectly normal, and only happens because the US record differently to how we do. If you don't understand, just watch any US soap like 'Friends' or 'Frasier' to get what I mean....
Overall, I think this should be in every collection of the Sasha-Digweed fans. Diggers particularly is an excellent role model, but the quality of the DVD and the rare fact that yes, this is evidence of the 2 talking and laughing on DVD (which is hard to find) is un-replaceable, since they're are both quite quiet when it comes to the Media. An absolute bargain for my six quid, with P&P!!
