I think most of the Dj Kicks aren't really mixed by the djs but mixed
using a computer. 

The best of the whole series are the Claude Young and Stacey Pullen,
but those two are definitely mixed by them. The Claude Young cd is
essential!

The Kruder & Dorfmeister and Andrea Parker are really nice but I don't
really get the sense that they are actually mixing.

I have a feeling that the upcoming Andrea Parker show in LA, will be
somewhat reminiscent of when Amon Tobin and Photek were out here.
Great tunes, but not much with regard to mixing. It'll be worth it
just to hear her new unreleased tunes.
