Jeff Mills’ legendary Live at Liquid Room mix, recorded during his 1995 DJ set at Tokyo’s Liquidroom nightclub, has come to streaming for the first time. The mix is available to stream exclusively via Apple Music. Listen to it below.
The 66-minute, 36-song Live at Liquid Room was condensed down from Mills’s original three-hour set, and spans 17 of his own tracks—including an early version of what would become his calling-card single, “The Bells”—alongside contemporaries like Richie Hawtin, Robert Armani, and Joey Beltram. The mix was originally available in CD and cassette formats as the second entry in Sony Japan’s short-lived Mix-Up series, but has never seen a widespread digital release.
Revisit Pitchfork’s Sunday Review of Live at the Liquid Room, Tokyo, and read about “The Bells” at No. 130 on “The 250 Best Songs of the 1990s.”
