BOYS OWN x FIRMAMENT MIX NO. 3

2009-10-06T13:16:00.000-07:00

A new mix put together a few months ago mixed and blended by Christian Wolff of Soft Rocks. This was given away free with a limited release of Boys Own T Shirts paying tribute to the original iconic designs of the late 80's and early 90's by Dave Little. Boy’s Own began as a legendary fanzine started by London’s Terry Farley, Steve Hall and Andy Weatherall and series of parties, before becoming a record label with which was responsible for many of the seminal house records of the early 90's. Boys Own recordings became Junior Boy’s Own a few years later and spawned many off shoot labels including Boys Own Collect.

"FOR THAT NIGHT IN EAST GRINSTEAD"

I'm going to have a stab at tracklisting this when I get a chance so if you have any clues drop me a line. Thanks to Anthony for helping me fill in some of the blanks.

FIRST YIPYAP FLYER

2009-09-04T11:10:00.000-07:00

2nd / 16th October 1993

The first ever flyer for YipYap. Peter S from Brooklyn who has played at Shelter, The Paradise Garage and The Sound Factory was a guest the first week. I was a guest the week after, and was asked to become resident along with Gareth from then on. I would say one of the reasons YipYap did so well was down to its policy of only using occaisional guest dj's, and even then only if they complimented the musical ethos of the club. The fashion for most other house clubs accross Britain at the time was to have one or two guests every week, often with completely opposing styles of music. By being different YipYap really built up a good relationship with its regulars in terms of breaking new records and creating an atmosphere. DJ Pierre (of Strictly Rhythm / Wildpitch fame), Roc & Kato and Miles Hollway and Elliot Eastwick from Hard Times were the best guests at YipYap for me. Miles and Elliot reckoned that along with Kaos in Portugal Yip Yap was their favourite club in the world to play at. Roc and Kato claimed that, in terms of atmosphere, it was on a par with Angels of Love in Naples.

1996 DEMO TAPE

2009-08-26T04:49:00.000-07:00

This is a track by myself and Beany put together in 1996. It has a break in it that was lifted from the film Point Break (the part when Keanu Reeeves is drowning) which is made up of strings. It also 'borrows' a few ideas from some of my favourite records at the time. The phasing sound which is layered over the drums was used in Johnny Fiasco's 'Conduction' on Cajual Records (1995), amongst others and is similar to the sound of two copies of the same record being played simultaneously. There is also a bit double beating at points. This record aint gonna make the top 10 but it was fun doing it. You can download the track HERE.

BARBARISM BEGINS AT HOME (ALLEZ ALLEZ EDIT)

2009-08-24T00:20:00.001-07:00

Sam Willis - one half of ALLEZ ALLEZ DJ / production duo (along with Steve Nolan) kindly let me post his unreleased edit of the classic Smiths track -BARBARISM BEGINS AT HOME (ALLEZ ALLEZ EDIT) up here. I really like this take on the original track which cuts back on most of Morrissey's vocal and builds more of a track, but retains the original 'smiths' sound.
You can find out more about Allez Allez and download some superb free music and information from their ALLEZ ALLEZ MYSPACE page.

They also have their own ALLEZ ALLEZ blog, which at the moment includes free mixes by Lindstrom, Low Motion Disco, Ben Watt, Hot Chip and JD Twitch (of Optimo fame), amongst many others. Every week, dj mixes by Allez Allez and other guest djs will be available to download from the homepage or automatically as a podcast. Really worth having a look at these links.

YIPYAP 2nd BIRTHDAY FLYER

2009-08-23T07:11:00.001-07:00

YipYaps 2nd Birthday party included DJ Pierre as a guest. DJ Pierre is widely credited with producing the first acid house record - the 1987 E.P. "Acid Tracks",by Phuture on Trax Records. DJ Pierre went on to record many of the early Acid House tracks on Trax Records such as String Free, Got The Bug, Box Energy, Fantasy Girl, We Are Phuture and Slam. In 1990, DJ Pierre moved away from Chicago, where the House Music scene was slowing down and joined Strictly Rhythm records, where he was also briefly the A&R manager and released tracks such as Generate Power by Photon Inc and Follow Me by Aly Us. There are a few of his tracks sprinkled through the mixes on this blog - including the Yo Yo Honey Wildpitch remix in the JUNE 1994 mix below.

MUZIK MAGAZINE CHART

2009-08-06T12:20:00.000-07:00

December 1994. Six out of the ten listed are contained somewhere within the mixtapes on this page. I would say all ten tracks have stood the test of time really well and could still cut it in a club today. Particularly the Noah's Ark track - 'The Quick', by Ralph Falcon, who is one half of Murk.

The Muzique Tropique E.P. is by Kevin McKay who went on to form the Glasgow Underground label as well as releasing several records on the Junior Boys Own sub label 'Jus Trax', including the superb 'Stella Sunday' from The Festival E.P., which became a bit of an anthem at YipYap. Deep house from Scotland.

HARD TIMES IN SCOTLAND

2009-08-03T14:06:00.000-07:00

Hard Times in Scotland flyer. Sunday night at the Tunnel in Glasgow, 5th February 1995. Gareth and myself were djing with Miles and Elliot from Manchester. It was all going well...until one of the Glaswegian crowd decided to rip off Barbara Tuckers wig during her live performance which led to her and her team of dancers storming off. Other than that it was a good night... Miles and Elliot are two of the best dj's I have played with or heard and are also responsible, along with Si Brad for one of the best house records I've ever heard, Paper Music Issue #1 - Downtime on Paper Recordings 1995. Downtime was the second release on Paper Recordings, the first being "The Book" by Salt City Orchestra (another pseudonym for Miles, Elliot and Si) which really captured the mood at the time - a new wave in British house music.
