I worked on the metal starecase that takes you downstairs around 98, so
it has a special place in my heart.

First night I went was Tyrant as they moved it from the End?

Dan Wake up mate! I am talking about room 3 (Fabric) mid noughties. I remember one particular RDB set around this time which had Simian Mobile Disco Hustler, Nirvana Polly and Cola Boy seven ways in it. Barely moved from the spot.

      Definitely. I remember when it first released and went to a house party and the DJ must have played it every hour. By the end of night everyone was singing it.

        Jacques Lu Cont is the GOAT fabriclive. The Diplo one isn’t too shabby.

        Too many Fabric mixes to figure out which one is GOAT, but top of my head, the first Craig Richards, Hipp-E and Halo, Terry Francis, Michael Mayer, Akufen, Weatherall, Pullen, last but not least, Swayzak.

        Pretty much stopped buying the CDs 2012. Can’t say I was too fussed about the stuff coming out from 2007 onwards. Surgeon, Wiggle and a few others were dece.

        Homegrove The steve bug one is ace. Lux dementia is a stand out track from that. Still give that track a spin nowadays. And also the phonique track at the end.

          nicksneddon that was a pretty banging mix, listened to it on a shroom trip on a beach, remember it well.

          Enjoyed the Death in Vegas mix, was in my car for about two years straight.

            nicksneddon Takes me back to the absolute carnage of their parties on a friday night

            They were excellent.

            Saw them and the Stantons on the same night there.

            Plumps opened up with this -

                Remember seeing Adam Freeland at Fabric opening with this ….

                Saw Darren Emerson, Futureshock and the Stanton Warriors at Underwater at The End a few years ago.

                Was absolutely heaving.

                Would have sounded huge through that sound-system no doubt.

                Plumps had some absolute slammers in their day.

                Zabiela’s “Scram / Higher State” thing leveled a party he played around ‘02 or ‘03.

                Their mix of Orbital was a fav of mine when I used to play out more often. Same with Stakker Humanoid remix. Plumps were boss.

                Smallman1 I was prolly there mate I hardly missed a Stanton Sessions or Plump Night out, remember I was suffering with the flu one night but my flatmate dragged me out. I got horrifically pissed and felt fine all night, next day Ive never felt so bad in my life

                It was absolute bedlam at those nights, you had people literally trying to climb into the DJ booth. One morning towards the end some dickhead tried to perform a handstand on one of the grills below the balcony and fell straight through – I thought someone had dropped a dummy or summat when I saw it.

                I spoke to Scoot about it, he said the fella in question was so drunk he couldn’t even remember being in Fabric - the dopey c**t could have killed someone let alone himself

                Still, what nights they were
