Never heard that before. Where did you get that from? Wouldn’t have thought it was very hard getting any of them to talk as theyd have all been plastered on a cocktail of drink and drugs 98% of the time. He was mates with all of them anyway.

      Sasha will be broadcasting his obituary from the top of the Shard any day now. That should put all the rumours to bed for the drama queens.

      If Sasha doesn’t make his proclamations public, he should of course be thrown in the sea with concrete flippers on.

      Mad_Cyril I’d doubt that, MC. This place is all the better for not interacting with the ill in the head. And long may it continue.

          Wounds still wide open? Thought you may have grown some over time not carrying on where it left off like a baby. How’s the hiding out in Turkey going anyway Henry Hill ? 😆

            Yeh Prince ended up burning all his bridges.
            Sasha wasn’t chuffed about the pic of God cover because it was supposed to be for a joke and then dom used it. Well known fable.

            I mean, he’s not totally wrong. Dance music took a backseat for quite a few years there and likely never got back to where it was in the ’90’s. Maybe it’s the American in me, but I believe dance music belongs in the underground anyway. It’s better when it’s raw and unpredictable and, frankly, disposable.

              Smallman1 Yeah it was actually Dom Phillips I was thinking of. Found the interview of him on the infamous mixmag cover:

              https://daily.redbullmusicacademy.com/2018/03/dom-phillips-interview

              Was that the one with the halo?

              Yeah, the reason was he’d been a nightmare all day and wouldn’t do anything. I had to go down [to the shoot]. At the end of the day, the photographer, exasperated, just said “Go like that” [clasps hands, as if in prayer]. The pictures came in and Pembo [Andy Pemberton, then editor of Mixmag] said, “Son of God.” So, we did. It was more a case of necessity than anything we set out to do.

              Oh, he always said he wasn’t happy about it. I think the reason he wasn’t comfortable about it was that all his mates used to phone him up and take the piss out of him. He’s quite a lad. When we did the “Son of God?” cover, he really hated that. We actually had a wrestling match about it outside the Ministry of Sound.
              A wrestling match?

              Yeah, me and Sasha wrestled. We had this protracted argument for about an hour that people were trying to break up. It didn’t become a fight, but it became this magical wrestling match: “You shouldn’t have said that.” “You should have co-operated with the photos.” [laughs]

                  I can understand why Sasha (then a young lad) would of been pissed off about that cover, but in retrospect now it’s iconic.

                    Sad, grim end to their lives. No one should go out like that. RIP

                    The details are fucking harrowing. Not sure I needed to know. Feel for his family and friends having to learn of such a gruesome demise.

                    RIP Dom at least his words will live on for eternity.

                    I can’t remember where it was but he was in an online discussion on modern music with one of his silly analysis and someone kept referring to him as petridish and he got really fucking pissed off with it and had a little tantrum.
