I just realized I downloaded this months ago but forgot about it.  I'm just back to grab the tracklisting.  Sounds nice from skipping around but it needs a proper listen.  Cheers!

GREAT mix @ebonysessions ! I really enjoyed it listening to it; perfect selection of "uplifting oldskool piano rave" with TASTE :D (I have looking for this type of Oldskool House Rave and have listened a lot of mixes here on Soundcloud like a month ago, and most of them are very CORNY & CHEESY for me hheheh)

Over 2 hours of house and early hardcore played in the U.K during the late 80’s and very early 90’s with the emphasis being on vocals, piano and more of an uplifting vibe. This mix showcases the sound that typified what you could expect to hear from live P.A’s at raves and at the more underground clubs of the time. Yes, there are a few ‘anthems’ in there but let’s face it, we loved them at the time and I still do!

If you're feeling these mixes with full track lists primarily focused on the 90's U.K dance music scene feel free to follow and share!

The idea behind my page is to log and showcase the music that has influenced me over the last 35+ years so that my daughter, Ebony, can listen to ‘olden day’ music and hopefully appreciate how good we had it. 

Having learnt my craft in the late 80’s at the age of 12 and teaching myself how to beat match on 1200’s within a week, I felt I had a knack for this DJ’ing thing way before it became fashionable. I would class myself as quite a versatile DJ able to lend my hand to most genres. Hopefully all those years of bedroom mixing and house parties have paid off…but that’s up to you to decide. 

I attempt to capture a constant energy in my mixes regardless of genre and am always a firm believer that the mix is as important as the track itself. I endeavour to create seamless transitions whilst maintaining the energy. During longer mixes a welcome switch in style is sometimes required. In fact different genres warrant different styles of mixing, in my opinion. And monotonous sets do nothing for me. Up and down, peaks and troughs, it’s all about building the listener up and letting them down gently.

Never one to choose tracks based on their popularity or current chart position, I hand pick the tunes I mix because I think they’ll stand the test of time. The idea being that during any of my sets I can pick a point and know I’ll dig that track or mix. Although digitally digging isn’t as rewarding as finding physical vinyl records for me, it is a whole lot easier. That said there are a lot of below par tunes out there to sift through before finding worthy tracks. Then the set process begins…I just approach it as a musical jigsaw.

Anyway, enough about me. Whether you’re getting ready to go out for the night, cleaning the kitchen or in the car, turn it up, get in the groove and I hope you enjoy the vibes  😎
