This is the original broadcast of the Jose Padilla Essential Mix transmitted on 10th September 1995, restored to its full 2 hour glory and unashamedly unedited to include the News.
The Essential Mixes by this time had 'evolved' a little bit with only one news bulletin in the middle of the mix. This basically gives you two 60 mins sets.
A very 'downtempo' selection ending with some 'dreamy house music'
I met the man himself a couple of times and he is as crazy as some of you lot here, but man, he knows how to chill the joint.
