If I had access to Youtube now I would have a listen to all these^^. Ah well. there's always work hours for that.
I was a bit young for all that proper house era (and Murtle's hallowed era of Mud Club and nicking coal), I'm a 1990-onwards kid.
eightball69: Do we know each other?! I went to a lot of the places you mentioned, (as I'm from Milton Keynes) Eddie Richards' stuff like Outer Limits and Release, Glam at milk bar (umm that was a couple of years later), some of the crusty stuff around then and a couple of Boys Own one-offs and that. Its weird cos I now live really near where Release was, in a loft opposite Shoreditch church, then I thought I was in the arse end of nowhere (which it was then), now the loft is probably a million pound 'penthouse apartment'. It was bonkers in there. Now someone's there making their dinner in their open plan kitchen.
Did anyone go to Live at The Brain back in 90? Graham Park was resident and it was so lovely in there, really small when a lot of things were going massive at the time. Actually I seem to recall I was in that place any old night not just wednesdays.
I used to LOVE Leftfield's 'Not Forgotten' (the first one without the sitar). I guess this is Progressive or something. Whatevs. I used to dig the kind of klonk stuff (LFO!) and early trancey things like Atmosphere Records and R&S stuff. On the Housier tip, I always get a good feeling from Make You Whole by Andronicus. Pal Joey was wicked back then too! 'Dance' and 'Reach Up To Mars'.
'Beat Dis' sounds good these days, bizarrely. I hated it back then. What about Pump up the volume? I've been dropping that recently, sounds fresh! Only just noticed (after all these years) that its by a dude called ARKane, who was also doing some other weird things at that time, not at all four-to-the-floor.
Its wierd how Guru Josh and that are all getting the rehash treatment at the moment.
321 you're back in the room...
