old rave stuff

This year I celebrate 24 years as a pro DJ in the Rave business on exactly the same day as Raindance. Even though I was a DJ from a very young age Raindance was my first big break back in 1989 so I always see it as my proper début in to the Rave scene...

It is a massive challenge trying to pick from so many wicked tunes... so the track list is simply a mixed bag of tunes that bring back great memories of Jenkins Lane and all of the Raindance tours that I was involved in through the early years.

Hope you enjoy and hope you can make it to our 24 years celebrations on 5th October 2013 at The Suffolk Street Warehouse in London.

Slipmatt - My 24 Years With Raindance Warm Up Mix-September 2013

If you enjoy this mix or download it, id really appreciate it if you click on 'repost' and / or 'share' it...

A selection of Acid and House tunes from 1988 to 1990 mixed by me. Back to when the raves began and the music started getting exciting. I did this mix and first uploaded it online in 2011, but as of from December 2013 iv re-mixed it and its now improved. Iv got this mix on a couple of sites and the original version i did of this has been quite popular on YouTube. Even tho the original version has been one of my most popular mixes, (apart from my breakdance mix) there was a couple of areas of sloppy mixing, but most significantly after listening to it on a particular occasion i realised just how bad the audio quality was and i wasnt totally happy with it so i thought id try and rectify that, so iv totally re-mixed it (almost identically with only a few minimal changes) and its also now extended with two extra tunes on the end.     This mix is now a better experience ! 

As i say the original copy was bad quality and even when i then put this re-mixed version on YouTube it still had a slight few distorted areas on a couple of tunes, but this is the nice clean copy of it with no issues.
(Altho in hindsight i have put to much sparkle on it in my music producing software, but iv learnt from that since to be abit more minimal with it)

(Contains jingle/ident. I always include these on mixes that are downloadable or for public consumption) 

This Mix is Available for Download. (But isnt anymore cos it's exceeded its download limit)

Another mix of mine thats worth a listen for Breakdance sounds is 'Back to The Early 80's - Breakin / Electro / Funk...

86-90 classic house mix

Andrew Weatherall's full live session from 2020Vision presents back to basics at Village Underground December 17th 2011.  It was an amazing set spanning the full 20 years of his involvement in the club and beyond.  As soon as he dropped the beatless mix of Smokebelch the room was transformed.  Fittingly the set ends with the full version...

Keepin it real!
An all-vinyl mix of all-1993 dance music - Hacienda / house classics all...This is part one of 2...

•	Mariah Carey – Dream Lover – David Morales mix 
I first heard this when David Morales played the loft of MCR’s Paradise Garage in early 93 – became a defining club track of the year –>>>> this is the import 12” promo  

•	Deep Inside – Hardrive
A total classic from the streets of New York – Masters at Work at their best. This is the original 12 > with graffiti art cover!  
  
•	Barbara Tucker Beautiful People – original MAW 12 
That sample, from this track >>> Barbara Tucker used to host a Wednesday night jam ‘Beautiful People’ in midtown Manhattan >>> this is the original MAW mix. Tenaglia played this as his end of night song when he first played Space Ibiza terrace. Worth checking CJ Mackintosh mixes – but they weren’t til 94! 
 
•	Michelle Ayers - Respect (Def Classic Mix)
David Morales played this in the basement of the Hacienda during it’s 11th birthday party, at around 4am :0)

•	Masters at work – I Can’t Get No Sleep – original 
This version is slightly different from the 12 inch (which came out later in the year). Taken off a very rare early MAW double album, one album of beats + hiphop, the other deep house + garage

•	Masters at work – I Can’t Get No Sleep – MK Dub 
This is a cracker of a mix – dig the pianos – as played by David Morales in the Hacienda basement... 

•	Bjork – Violently Happy – MAW Dub 
This sound is – for me – the early 90s sound of downtown New York. BBoy beats, weird off key organ/synths, detached vocal samples, hip hop snares – Canal St mixtape vibes...nod ya head to the Trackhead!

•	Dont wanna play house
I bought this Nervous Records comp in New York in 1994 – a time when you just couldn’t get certain music without going to where it was from (you take it for granted now that you get a copy of any track on Beatport!) 

•	U2 – Lemon – David Morales Mix 
Another defining track for me from 1993 Gunchester. Played everywhere at the time, that bassline knocks you sideways. For weeks Graeme Park would end his Hacienda Saturday nights with this + a Brand New Heavies track – Back To Love >>> at which point we all got a bit bored of it!

•	Sunscreen - Perfect Motion 
One of those time & a place tracks. You should check out other Sunscreen tracks, very reminiscent of the UK house sound at the time. Love the bassline.

•	Todd Terry – KMA 
A white label I picked up in New York – Todd is God! 

•	Cajmere – Brighter Days – Todd Terry Dub 
BOOOOOOOOM!!!! If you don’t own this, you can’t call yourself a house DJ. Fact.

•	Everybody
Taken from the Nervous Records album I mention above – high hats workin it! Very New York 

•	Jaydee – Plastic Dreams
Come to the dark side! I first heard this at the Hacienda 11th birthday party – Frankie Knuckles played it in the main room around dawn >>>> light was coming in the windows in the roof.... I could tell this was on another level  

•	Factory 
I bought this in downtown New York. The Factory? After hours club Sound Factory – which at the time defined a tribal / after hours / dark house vibe. Junior Vasquez would play 1am – 1pm, working 3 versions of a track over a half hour period, looping and adding effects BY TAPE! The Sound Factory was in the meat packing district of NYC – which is now all cool > THEN it was a dump, haunted by transvestite street walking prostitutes and drug addicts! Hurrah!!
