Absolutely nothing wrong with big vocal house records 😎

alistair

nicksneddon couldn’t agree more mate. Morales’ Dreamlover and Space Cowboy remixes were perfect mid 90’s house records to name just two.

Genuine record collector and enthusiast. So can go on tangents from time to time.

Always found when he was pretty much free to play waht he likes he could quite regularly nail it.

Post Haç I’m not sure he could be arsed. Had some commercial gigs and a radio show where you felt was playing someone else’s agenda and couldn’t be arsed any more.

Also J*y H*'s name doesn’t belong in this thread.

alistair I know what you mean calling Sonique a ‘Gatecrasher DJ’ but actually she did a residency at Cream and then GodsKitchen - I know because they were my regular two clubs and I couldn’t get away from the daft slag, coming on and singing over all her records and ruining everyone’s night.

I don’t think she ever had a Gatecrasher residency (though she undoubtedly will have played there) - the residents were Scott Bond, Judge Jules, Ashley Casselle (Ashtrax) and PvD (monthly).

alistair

bosstrabs true but she was never house/garage and her gimmick was singing over hardbag records. Judge Jules protege who was shite.

Mad_Cyril Love this interview, especially bit about DJs warming up for him.

Comes across as a decent chap

Brilliant interview, he comes across as really sound.

alistair

Forgotten just how good his remix of Donna Summer melody of love is. Cracker

Nick. Are you putting this together digitally? If so do you have an online store your source from?

Most of the usual suspects have little decent early / mid 90’s house. Unless it’s particularly big from the time or a shite remix.

Any ideas much appreciated

nicksneddon

Mad_Cyril yes they are all digital, a lot of them from old cd singles and the like. If you can’t get hold of any you want just let me know

Jules72

bosstrabs he hasn’t aged well - saw him at some Hacienda night in Kentish Town 5-6 years ago… looked like Captain Birdseye and was playing utter shite at 130 bps

alistair

Jules72 have you listened to his latest productions/red zone mixes? He’s bang on it right now

Jules72

alistair talking about Graeme Park mate… Dave Morales is a legend obvs 👍…

Dan

alistair His son isn’t too shabby at making good tunes.

alistair

Jules72 Sorry, my misunderstanding. Graeme Park looks like a hobo now 😀

Dan

He was due to play for my mate, but then got banged up in Japan. For the rescheduled gig he played an extended set for nothing. Love the fact that he does about ⅔ diverse remixes with each artist. His production skills are amazing.

alistair

Dan is there one you’d particularly recommend? Must be so difficult following in his footsteps. Same with Kevin Saunderson’s son who is decent too

Dan

alistair Few of them are on the Red Zone album.

Mad_Cyril

Thanks Nick, that’s very kind of you.

Was talking generically as well, tunes from that era. Sounds like only real option is what you’ve done from CD’s etc?
