A live house DJ set from the Coco Club at the Zap, Brighton from August 1992 recorded onto cassette (there's a picture of the box here for the C90 geeks). All mixing is live and from vinyl of course, that's my excuse for the less than perfect transitions. This was the night that Ten City played live so the selection is very much in the soulful, vocal house area. Nice vibes, I think.

Coco Club August 1992

BEFORE SUNSET: This is a live DJ set from Cafe Del Mar in Ibiza, two hours before the sunset, so it's groovy and slowly winding down to the ambient stuff. It was recorded at the end of May this year, and DJed from the original booth in the old part of the Cafe, where the coffee machine used to be. As you can imagine it was an emotional, rather drunken and extremely beautiful evening, featuring new friends, old favourites, and that legendary Mediterranean light. The sunset hour is coming soon.

Chris Coco has been working as a DJ since the acid house explosion of the late 80s.

He has edited DJ magazine, worked for BBC Radio 1 on the afterhours show The Blue Room. He has made artist albums for Warp and Distinctive Records. He has made compilations for Playboy, Ministry of Sound, EMI Classical and Trojan Records. His music has appeared on many compilations including the big ones, Cafe Del Mar and Hotel Costes. His music has been featured Sex and the City, Nip Tuck, House and many other TV shows.

He currently broadcasts and syndicates a weekly electronic music radio show called Melodica and runs his label, Melodica Recordings, out of his studio/office in London.

His music style has developed from those original house beginnings and draws on those years of experience. His club/festival/party sets are mainly proper house featuring the best of the current releases and a selection of classics with a little slo mo disco and a few eclectic surprises thrown in. His sunset/beach sets are more laid back and eclectic, and are also something special.

Night Bus

What is Night Bus?

First, the simple answer - it's an electronic music soundtrack that works rather well on that long, late night journey on the night bus. It's atmospheric, ethereal, ambient, modern music with just enough drive to get you home. It's music to help you stare out of the window and notice the little details that make the ride kind of special. It's music to take you there and help you feel like you are somewhere else.

Then, the more complicated one - Night Bus is a collection of music made by a new generation of London based producers who work around the disadvantages of the current economic climate, resorting to computer programs and MIDI keyboards to create their musical exodus; who have grown up in the metropolis plugged into music on their mobiles, listening to dubstep and hip hop and auto tune pop and the sound of the city itself; who have filtered all this through their software to nurture and create a new sound, a new feeling, a new C21 ambient that, sometimes unconsciously, draws on the spirit of the classic artists  to create a new style. Everyone from Erick Satie to Brian Eno to Tangerine Dream to Burial is hidden in there somewhere. Night Bus is steeped in history but it has a sound that is all its own, and now it's becoming a genre in its own right. 

Night Bus is a compilation put together in collaboration by recording artist Jamie Isaac, film maker Wesley Stokes Mellor and MelodicaRecordings label boss Chris Coco.
