Athenaeum, Hacienda & Paradise Factory 1992-1995 (February 2015)

After playing the PF21 'Paradise Factory' pre-club party in August 2014 I've been asked by many to do a classics mix. I don't usually do them but I was feeling quite nostalgic so here you go... Not sure if you would class some of these as classics but they were all favourites of mine when they first came out 20 odd years ago! They were all played at either the Hacienda, Paradise Factory or the best pre-club bar in Manchester at the time 'The Athenaeum'. Hope you enjoy it!

Athenaeum, Hacienda & Paradise Factory 1992 - 1995

Recording of the Number One Club on Central Street, Manchester from October 1991.  Happy days indeed as the place, the people and the music was something truly special.

Hope you enjoy.....we all did on the night it was played.

Back to Love (Athenaeum & Hacienda Classics) - Mixed by Mark Anthony (April 2020)

Inspired by the 'Hacienda' live stream over the weekend and the fact I haven't done one for a while I thought it was time to do another classics mix. I don't usually do them but I was feeling quite nostalgic and as we're all on lockdown and can't get out, why not... 

As with the last classics mix from 5 years ago this mix features tracks that are all favorites of mine and were played at either the Hacienda, Paradise Factory or the best pre-club bar in Manchester at the time 'The Athenaeum'.

Every track has a special place in my heart and brings back fond memories of special moments in time out on the dancefloor.

Play it loud, sing, dance, smile, enjoy...
