It was while still at Renaissance that Sasha met another DJ, John Digweed. The two became a remixing team and soon released the first volume of their Northern Exposure series (a mix album that also functioned as a collection of the duo's remixes for others). The duo toured behind the release, visiting the U.S., Australia, South Africa, and Southeast Asia. Sasha refuses to limit himself to DJ work, however; he collaborated with singer Maria Naylor on the Top 20 hit "Be as One," and remixed tracks from such popular artists as the Pet Shop Boys, Simply Red, and M-People. He also formed his own record company, Excession Recordings, and is wrote originals for Deconstruction. In late 1997, another Sasha/John Digweed compilation appeared, Northern Exposure 2, available in both East Coast and West Coast versions (each contained completely different songs). He's released several mix albums on his own as well, including 1999's San Francisco.
