Seen them countless times at Cielo. Not my fav by any means, but I will admit that their night was always a fantastic time. Only djs/club night I can think of that drew 50% females. Puerto rican chics from the bronx turning up poured into cocktail dresses to go clubbing. Was a blast!
MAW
Miguel Migs gigs I remember being mentioned for a night of guaranteed stunning women too.
All absolute panty-wetters, I could be here all day

Think this is a great remix of theirs. That sax playing is so funky
Ban request for Alistair!

If for the Simply Red, seconded
Christian …belter. There was a famous Sasha @ Universe tape that opened with it too.
Its a bit of a shame that many folks only exposure to MAW was from the odd track that synonymous with S&D, River Ocean ‘Happiness’ etc., as there are dozens of hidden gems.
Along_the_Wire …totally get why people wouldn’t like some of their more vocal stuff, and tbh I’ve listened to some of Louie’s recent streams and they ain’t really for me, but at their best they were fucking ridiculous, live instrumentation, incredible percussion. Some of those Strictly-era Kenlou dubs were massively influential on the UK ‘progressive’ house sound ‘92/3’

Forgot about the Debbie Gibson track, it’s glorious
That Debbie Gibson track exemplifies the art of the remix. Just takes tiny snippets of the original and turn it into something completely different and the result is spectacular
…4Hero mix is boss
No real compulsion to go back to the album as it was so relentlessly cained at the time, as I said, many many less memorable dance albums from that era tho.
Not one of their Housier or better known tracks but always loved this.
Very cool
…also reminded myself that if it weren’t for the album we wouldn’t have had this, probably my absolute favourite d&b track ever
The Mood 2 Swing remix of that complete bypassed me till recently, it’s excellent
Just remember doing doves one night and they finished the night with their St Etienne remix.
Superb.
