Description: Just as Nu Groove Records was winding up and we were feeling a little depressed & sorry for ourselves, out of nowhere came Nervous Records straight from NYC..... POW! Nervous Records came with a unique sound, and the first wave of releases were serious! This selection is from the first wave and captures that unique vibe and super polished production style - wicked!

Love me some Nervous Records. Grabbed them whenever I found them. Always good stuff

@trevorpspeer: Great label! Glad you liked it and thanks for your comment :-)

After a full year of livestreams, I thought I would go out with a bit of a bang, by doing a 4hr best of early 90's finale set. Totally recorded live on vinyl, tracks featured are from the time of my residences at Golden & Freetown in Stoke-On-Trent.
Many vocal anthems, dirty dubs and quite a few uplifting piano moments. I've really enjoyed using the original vinyl that I have collected and loved for so many years, to keep it as much the real deal as I can.

Big love - Pete x

Ruff & Tuff sounds of 1990 London dedicated to The Crazy Club on Saturday nights at the The Astoria... .not much detail comes to mind from these nights...except maybe the tables, balcony and the bastard queues..

Over the past 8 years or so we have had, along with Theo Parrish, the honour of playing the monthly residencies at a small basement club in Shoreditch, London with an impeccable sound system. After 20 years of operation, it was time to move on and close the doors on a place that has a lot to answer for in shaping modern club culture. To say this space along with the owner Ade’s singular vision was fundamental in our personal musical formation would be a complete understatement. 
 
On the day of their closing, manager Charlotte asked us if we’d put the system through its paces for the last time that the club would be open to the public. We set about packing the anthems from our respective residencies and on the night once the people were through the doors played 2 records in turn for the rest of the dance. We included tracks of our own and of friends that were made with that place in mind. Records like Daphni - Ye Ye and Four Tet - Pinnacles were made to first be played at Kieran’s nights there, and the Floating Points - Vacuum EP was born out of the CD-R night at the club, and its launch party was the trigger for Sam’s monthly residency.
 
We set this recording up just before the start of the night and unfortunately it distorts in places, but we make no apology for how joyfully noisy people get! The vibe in the room this night was typical of the club on any given night and we hope this recording captures just a fraction of the spirit of a Plastic People night.
 
A massive thank you from us to everyone that has come down to the nights over the years and supported our music there. We are truly humbled to have shared the music we love with people at this place, and your energy in turn has influenced the way we make music on an unfathomable scale. We also thank the bosses Charlotte Kepel and Ade Fakile for inviting us to the club and having faith in us over  these years! All the best for the future!
 
 
See you in the dance
 
Much Love 
 
Sam &amp; Kieran

Floating Points & Four Tet - Final Plastic People 2 1 2015

Warning **first track contains explicit lyrics**

Dedicated to the Biology events that ran in 1989. Proper warehouse beats and grooves for the summer. Hitting Blackmarket Records in London W1 to sort out the tickets and then find someone with a motor willing to sacrifice the next 12-24 hours of their lives for us...

B-Side & Detta - The Mountain Meal Promo Mix

Playing in the upcoming Soul:ution hosted Room Two on Friday 23rd January the Chelmsford based drum & bass producer, LSB (aka Luke Beavon), has put together another stonker of a 60 minute mix to get everyone's palette back up to speed after the end of year break. Incorporating the sort of measured and musical music you can fully expect from a room that will also feature sets from the music man, Calibre, Marcus Intalex, Exit boss, dBridge and Manchester prodigy, Chimpo, LSB's mix builds slowly, layering tracks that really maintain an awareness and a sense of space.

A big thank you to Ed Solo for providing us with his Minirig Mix Tape!

Strangely enough for an artist named Ed Solo, this prolific producer used to be best known for his collaborations with other artists. Deekline, Krafty Kuts, Skool of Thought, drum 'n' bass legend Brockie - all have benefited from getting Ed alongside them in the studio. The east London lad who grew up listening to pirate radios and cut his teeth as a production assistant at the famous Sour studios really is a Jedi master of sonic science: drop the needle on an Ed Solo record and you'll soon know about it - no one makes club music that cuts through a soundsystem quite like him.

And yet that moniker also - rightly - suggests a confidence in his ability to go out on his own, and Ed is an iconic artist on each of the drum 'n' bass, breaks and dubstep scenes. In the latter field, he's recently been creating a firestorm with Sludge Records, the label he co-runs with Deekline (the pair also run booty breaks imprint Hot Cakes together).

Tracks such as Age of Dub and Atlantis have introduced younger clubbers to classic dance music sounds, throwing them through a skanked out half-time prism and bringing them back to the floor in full effect. They've also picked up support from iconic figures such as Kissy Sellout and Skream - this is a producer right at the heart of the zeitgeist.

In the club, Ed is at the centre of one of the most innovative revolutionary shows of modern times, the Battlejam events run with production partner and UK DMC Champ JFB and UK beatbox champ Beardyman. Working together, the trio cut, scratch and loop up live audio recordings - some made by members of the crowd only seconds before - to create an entirely new, interactive, real-time experience.

Having just returned from a spectacularly successful tour of Canada, Ed is ready to take things to the next level. Hold tight for some serious dancefloor mayhem in your area.
