Sasha recorded this Essential Mix for BBC Radio 1, first broadcast on 22 May 2005 — the 7th of their 8 Essential Mixes in the Waveform archive. It lands in the mid-2000s, as electro and minimal reshaped dancefloors, and the set sits in Progressive House territory.
A full tracklist for this broadcast has not been documented — the recording runs as one continuous set. It aired in a year that also brought Essential Mixes from High Contrast, Jon Obir, David Guetta.
Listeners voted it the Essential Mix of the Year for 2005.
