I always forget about this thread.
I feel it to be where I should discuss recent clubbing times.
2 weeks ago, I went to watch James Zabiela at Sankeys. 3 hour set of Techno, minimal, breakbeat and scratching. Albsolutely sick. There is nobody like him.
Last weekend I went to the final 'Keep it Unreal' night, from Mr Scruff. Well, the last one at the Music Box in Manchester. Scruff DJ's for up to 8 hours. He starts off with slow deals, like old soul and blues and rnb, then picks up the tempo progressively through the night to include funk, disco, hip hop.... none of the tune, apart from his own you will know. The last 2 hours are pretty wind, because everybody has been building up with the music, getting more intoxicated as time goes on... It is a bit frenzied once it kicks off. It all just works so well. Plus he has his own unique cartoon visuals, and a Tea Shop... If you've never seen Mr Scruff, he gets about, and his is brilliant. Sort it out.
