What are you listening to at the moment?..
Matt such a fucking great track . Never tire of that intro/build up .
Just listening to Luciano’s new EP.
Fucking dreadful…. How does he get away with this dross?
Wasily Can I grab this too please, Alex?
Hidden gem time .
IndustryStandard Decent DJ in his day.
Dan …some cracking nights at the ‘woods for Culture Shock back in the day .
IndustryStandard Defo.
This always reminds me of Hollywoods.
Love that track . Reminds me of a Mike Woods mix tape a mate from Uni played to death taken from Legends, Warrington . 1992. Had Gypsy I’ll trance you, Brothers Love Dubs, Jump, NJoi…..some utter screamers. Apparently that club was the nuts back in the day .

We used to go there a lot. Everyone absolutely off their nut on speed in there. Woods and Noggy nights were mental. Another similar place was the cotton club in Wrexham .
judging by that tape must have gone off big time in there.
Cankles-McJeggings I had this on vinyl (fuck knows where it’s gone) was this anything to do with the club, Dermo?
IndustryStandard Reminds me of Club UK and Just Can’t get Enough parties.

No mate they were all from Manchester way, the Bowlers crew. DJ Welly, John Waddiker etc. Happy hardcore you know the score.
The club was short lived it was late 91/2. Pigs closed it down because it was obviously an absolute drugs fest in there. Legends met the same sticky ending. We weren’t really into the music that much at either, it was just an excuse to get battered really when Shelley’s wasn’t on anymore.
There was a brief period in between Shelleys and Mansfield where we didn’t know what to do with ourselves and ended up in some right dodgy, mainly shit, places. Eclipse in Coventry and one in Brum that slips my mind. Regular trips to the hac when it wasn’t Eastwick, Wainwright and Dave Haslam.

@Dan Pete Wardman classic. He was a fire that burnt out very quickly, was everywhere banging it out around 95-6, Kiss show was superb, got the star move to Radio 1 then went to Ibiza / went missing in action / got sacked then just disappeared . Think his sound also never evolved so he ended up on the Trade/Strawberry Sunday nostalgia circuit with BK
30 years old this year and still and absolute belter. I always listen to this a few times each year, just won’t get old.
Cankles-McJeggings Eastwick was our first guest we booked…. Proper funny lad.

Really didn’t like his music. The residents at the hac were never my thing. Think most of them ended up at Hard Times. Didn’t like Parkes either. Pickering was ok but when acid died out he was left without a clue what to play to stay relevant imo.
Just remembered I actually met him (Eastwick )in Singapore of all places playing in a huge new shopping mall they’d opened. It was really odd coz I was looking at his equipment (not a euphemism)and got talking to him without a clue who he was. Then I noticed a cd of his upright next to the decks to advertise it I guess.
At that point I didn’t want to tell him I realised who he was either
Bloodlock?

Eclipse in Coventry
What was it like in there. We used to get tapes from the eclipse parties but we never ventured up that far.
One of those tune you used to hear on Annie Nightgale’s show and then embark on a lengthy mission to track the bastard down.
