Amps He was a decent dj, saw him bang it out a few times. Always progressed from breaks or a bit of vocal stuff at the start, through prog, into pure e-trance and bone-rattling techno. Just what you want really.

      bosstrabs Seen Steve Lawler & King Unique doing their live shizzle in that room. Fucking ace.

        Was at every Bedrock for around two years. Amazing nights. Clubbing done proper.

        Used to just crash in the van afterwards and nearly electrocute myself the next day at work whilst wiring in. Either that or parking wardens tapping on the window telling me to move on. Messy.

        Amps Yeah, sounds about right. Top bloke too, always said hello etc.

        Although when I saw him he wasn’t playing warm-up for PvD, in which case he would have to be a bit more ‘polite’.

          Didn’t go for a few years until it moved to XOYO.

            Dubman i have sonos, so i have one playing in each room with video loop of digweed dropping heaven scent in groove on a giant projector.

                bosstrabs yeah that smaller room in turnmills was great fun, remember one nye there was a Happy Monday’s dj set in it, my god Bez had fire in his eyes !! Had a photo of him somewhere was like he was possessed

                  Amps Plays that ‘Saturn’ tune I can never remember the name of.

                  Help me out people, come on, we’ve done this before!

                      Hursty

                      Was that the Easter one? Diggers did a six-hour special from what I remember.

                        Echo Excellent work chief!

                        This mix. It’s basically muscular.

                          Toss up between 1998 and 2000 for me.

                          1998 for the music, 2000 for vibez.

                          Met a bunch of lifelong friends in the summer of 2000 - including wife to be. Hung out at the Cross coupla times a month as the sun crept above the garden fences at 5am. Best Ibiza trip I’ve ever had, and had an amazing time at a couple of the Summer festivals with the same folks. Had recently left uni, decent money in my pocket for the first time, and was seemingly capable of getting bollocksed all weekend, without feeling dramatic after effects.

                          1998 though was just the pinnacle for me in terms of music. I loved that progressive/trance sound at the time - Breeder at absolute the top of their game, a series of BiR remixes that blew me away every time I heard them. Was big into the Renaissance/GU sound at that time - and so lucky to see the likes of Nigel Dawson, Ian Ossia, Dave Seaman, Nick Warren, Sasha, Digweed etc on very regular rotations around London - as well as a host of lesser known DJs or residents that popped up all over the place. Was also the year of the first Bedrock parties at Heaven, which I went to as often as I could manage.

                          First heard this in 1998, though I think the full release was in ’99. Insane breakdown and drop when you’re buzzing.

                          Actually my favourite ‘Breeder’ production from 1998, but rich pickings.

                          1998 was a spectacular year for Brothers in Rhythm remixes. Too Far, Godspeed, It’s Over It’s Under, Uninvited, Special - all amazing in my eyes (to my ears…) The one I keep going back to though is the BiR rework of Without You I’m Nothing by Placebo. Just an incredible reimagining, and one half of ‘The best transition ever’ ™.

                            vinnyt77 great post. Really evokes similar memories. BIR remix of Placebo on right now. Brilliant. Bowie on vocals too

                              Dan Those three consecutive months he did Thursday nights at XOYO in 2012 were absolutely fucking immense - they’re the last time I probably really loved a Bedrock night - felt like the early days and the music was epic. Great crowd too.
