alistair Correct. There are now, which is why we have this thread, but for a long time it was just dreadful, bar the rare record. Blame the electro house from that period for taking away so many spirited producers into making utter dirge.

      BlainSA you’re right mate, although the thread is always on the brink of turning into a nostalgia fest.

          Serious question: Has anyone ever tolerated a ‘breaks’ room or dj set for more than 1 hour without getting totally bored?

            Smallman1 But that was probably to escape your braying, moronic Rupert mates, so it’s understandable.

            I’d find three hours of Plump DJs preferable to a bunch of Chiswick spackers.

                  bosstrabs used to love a breaks night, but was always a great second room sound, to mix things up with some tops off prog in the main room.

                    Meat Katie used to do a decent night called Hum that was worth checking out. Was. Then all those artists started release that awful electro tech house crap not too long after.
