Back to Love (Hacienda, Number 1 Club & Renaissance 'Mansfield' Classics)(Part 1 - The Number 1 Club 1992/1993) - Mixed by Mark Anthony (April 2021)
 
Just over a year ago I mixed a tribute to Manchester's 'Number 1 Club' using tracks selected and chosen from a list compiled by members of the club via the Facebook group 'The No1 Club Manchester (86-93)'. 
 
One Year on and it seems only right that we re-visit the 'Number 1' for another trip down memory lane... 
 
This time instead of doing a 'classics' mix I've tried to re-create a night and capture the sound & feel of the club from late 1992/early 1993. Utilizing some of the tracks I couldn't fit on the first mix and blending them together with the tougher more progressive music of the time I hope it gives you a feel of what a night at 'No 1' club with Tim Lennox on the turntables would have sounded like. Fingers crossed I've pulled it off....
 
I have to admit this really was a joy to do and although it's firmly a 'Number 1 Club' mix, I have to admit that by mid way through I found myself 50 miles south of Manchester on the dancefloor of another club in Mansfield, nr. Nottingham - the legendary 'Renaissance' (another place that holds many a memory).  Tim Lennox was really championing that early 90's Progressive House vibe made famous by Sasha, Ian Ossia & John Digweed. It's a sound that really doesn't get played much nowadays but really epitomizes early 90's club culture and I love it x

Back to Love (Hacienda, Number 1 Club & Renaissance Classics)(Part 1 - The Number 1 Club 1992/1993)

After i did the retake of one of my favourite Kaos tapes from the Warehouse in Leeds.

https://soundcloud.com/richard-gill/kaos-leeds-warehouse-27th-may-1991tape-1-retake?in=richard-gill/sets/classic-sets-retakes

I decided that this tape also needed redoing. In my opinion it is one of the best put together sets from when Soak first started and the music was more US house lead. There is some great, long forgotten classics on here. 

Again some of the mixes were a bit rough, where beats were clashing etc but the main issue was the sound quality. Anyone who knows this tape will know that the recorded master on the night was distorted and pretty much ruined it.

Like the Kaos retake, i have mixed it pretty much exactly the same, volumes, placements etc but a lot tighter than the original. 

I think the tape is mainly Sasha & Mike Pickering

Once again enjoy :)

106 - Up Yer Ronson 'The Soundtrack Vol.1' - Disc One mixed by Graeme Park (1995)

My old school sets are inspired by the cassettes I heard just as I was getting into the dance/ rave scene as a teenager in roughly '90-'92. Those tapes came from places including Grin DJ's (Vertigo/ Welly, Jon Kelly), Shelleys (Sasha, Dave Seaman, Nipper), and some of the bigger raves at the time including Fantazia, Obsession, Universe ect. 

Everything I mix is done on two Technics with Allen & Heath Xone22 mixer via Serato scratch live.

If you like the tunes please feel free to comment, like or share with like minded old school souls. 

If any trainspotters want track ID's ect just ask :)

Much love, 12 Inch Lover xx

Allister Whitehead's Return To Shine

With Allister coming back to The Hacienda for the Christmas party at Sankeys on 27/12/16 which sees some eight of the clubs original residents reunited, here with a very special mix which puts together the set he performed back in November 1991 on the first night of his Shine residency,

Following The Hacienda's re-opening in 1990, Shine was the Friday night replacement to the long running Nude and saw Mike Pickering and Russ take charge of the night alongside special guests who included the likes of Todd Terry, K Klass, Sasha and more. 

About the opportunity,  Allister comments;

"I was asked by Mike Pickering in 1991 to cover for him at ’Shine’  on Friday’s  while he was touring and recording with M-People. Not many DJ’s got the chance to play the Hacienda, it was like being asked to play for England!   Obviously, things went well for Mike and I became resident from 1992 - 93 on Friday’s at Shine and I did Tuesday’s as well for a while.  We had some great guests (Todd Terry, Kevin Sanderson etc...) and some special nights, including a few of the infamous foam parties, which were amazing and pretty close to the incredible Nude nights back in 88/89. To play the Hacienda at full pelt was a rare thing for a DJ apart from Graeme and Mike and has provided memories I will treasure all my life. Thanks must go to Mike Pickering, Graeme Park, Peter Hook and Ang Matthews."

Dusting down and digitising the same set from that night, Allister pulls together a number of the tunes that characterised The Hacienda in late 1991 including US club hit Brother Makes 3 to open. Union City Recording's hit Mombassa "Cry Freedom" follows up whilst the mix also includes carat gold classics, Denise Lopez's "Dont You Wanna Be Mine", Rusty "Everything's Gonna Change" and the Sasha remix of Jimi Polo's "Better Days".

Pete Bromley - 6 Hour Set Live On Vinyl - Back In The Day 90s House Classics on 26-12-19

I’ve decided to remake my first ever and probably most popular house mix in glorious hi-fidelity sound originally recorded over 25 years ago. Many may regard this as the golden age of early 90’s house between 91-93 and no doubt you’ll recognise many tunes taken from various sets including Sasha at Universe - Pleasure Planet, probably the most popular house mix amongst UK ravers to date! For me, this is where my house journey began and I still draw a lot of influence from the early 90’s.
