DIY were the nuts - Digs n Whoosh, DK, Pez, Jack, Emma - all wicked. Went to many of their partys, best being Castle Morton in '92. Remember my mates were talking about going up there, trying to persuade me to go with them. Was sitting down watching TV and it came up on Central News 'illegal rave gets bigger and bigger....blah, blah' looked wicked! Rung up my mates and we drove down there in his camper
Walked into the main tent to Digs n Whoosh playing 'Sueno Latino' on about -2, great memories....Still got one of the tapes kickin around somewhere -

Castle Morton was ace, lasted 5 days. BH August if memory serves me. A few mates went down there on the first day and we didn't hear from them for a day or 2 - this was before everyone had mobiles, then like I said we saw it on the news and it looked wicked. That was the best/worst thing they could've done(depending on which way you look at it) was stick it on the news cos everyone that saw it just jumped in their motors and legged it down there!

@buddha and co, bringing some great memories back to me too. schoom, spectrum, m25 run-a-rounds. etc.......still when the the coke got on the scene, it ruined it for me though.
the other "fat tony" used to to the wagg club, geeez i used to love that the mud and delirium before the house scene. and the early funk/chicago house wharehouse paties, before the acid scene.
nicking coal from the garages after, kicking back listening to talking heads and sade when we got back to someones house.

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.

E2 E4, ace! A track that confuses so many people - always think it's a dub or something of 'Sueno Latino!'
Bit like when I used to play The Gap Band 'Outstanding', people would think I was playing Kenny Thomas!
