alistair Listening to a couple of good K Klass mixes today namely Ruined in a day and Joe Roberts Lover and then stuck on their album (one of my last cassette purchases) with Let me Show you, Rhythm is a mystery et al. Made me wonder, where they are now and if they are still producing in different guises?? Enjoyed their early DJ sets at Cream back in the day too.
bosstrabs Still used to play out a lot round Chester about a decade ago, but never bothered with them as it was in venues I wouldn’t go to (Rosie’s and the student union).
bosstrabs Still playing mostly old skool nights. I think it’s mostly Russ who djs isn’t it? Sure I heard sometimes ‘K-Klass’ is just him.
alistair The veterans tour. A bit like golf, you can still make a decent living. Problem is you’ve got to play the old hits!
bosstrabs alistair They undoubtedly made some great tunes, but I wouldn’t be bashing down doors to get to see them (or anyone else) play a set of early 90s piano house. Probably my least favourite genre to endure a full set of (one or two carefully placed tracks is ok)
alistair bosstrabs me neither, just reminiscing. Remind me of my early clubbing years and they had a good clean sound. Rhythm is a mystery is a beauty
bosstrabs alistair The Fantasia Club Classics volumes were great for that sound, was really into those discs for a while when I first got into clubbing around 97. Lots of K-Klass and other ‘quality fromage’ (I suppose you could call it) on those. This got an absolute rinsing: https://www.discogs.com/Various-The-House-Collection-Club-Classics-Vol-2/release/947540
alistair bosstrabs check out that footage of 1990 Clubbing that I posted. A more innocent time with no smart phones!
Mad_Cyril Fantazia Discs; House Collection: Graeme Park House Collection 3 : Alistair Whitehead ‘The classics’, ‘jon pleased wimmin’, Mike Cosford et al were pony in comparison. File in same shit bucket as J××××y H×××y, B××××o and Pxxxy
Mad_Cyril Blimey. You’ll pick up the colloquial alignment with residential location of DJ at some point.
gcw The Graeme Park Fantasia mix is one of my all time favourites, the first CD that got me interested in ‘dance’ music. Mike Cosford - blast from the past - wonder what he is up to now?
