History Of My House Playlist (1987 - Present)

This mix covers all the different styles of house I was exposed to between 1992 & 1995 at the infamous Cultural Vibes events hosted in my home town at the Plymouth Warehouse in the U.K. Always pushing boundries with their amazing selection of upfront U.S house and early funky progressive cuts, these evenings were not to be missed!

PHAB 50 (TDK C90)

Many people have different interpretations of what acid house is. I unfortunately missed the U.K scene by a few years so never got to live it but for me this mix epitomises what I would have wanted to hear. If you were lucky enough to live through the scene then hopefully you’ll find a moment that’ll take you right back to the dance floor.

For me the beauty of sets during the 87-90 era was never knowing if the next track would be an acid, techno, hip house or piano house track but you could pretty much guarantee it was gonna be a banger! I’ve tried to replicate that sequence throughout the set.

Many fresh edits and a few newer acid tunes are included to spice things up but as always I’ve tried to keep them as close to the originals as possible. Some tunes blatantly weren’t made during the era but fit it so well I just couldn’t resist.

With that in mind turn it up as this one’s mixed to make you move! Peace, Love & Unity! 😎

History Of My House - Chapter 1 - 01-08-20 (In The Beginning)

I’ve decided to remake my first ever and probably most popular house mix in glorious hi-fidelity sound originally recorded over 25 years ago. Many may regard this as the golden age of early 90’s house between 91-93 and no doubt you’ll recognise many tunes taken from various sets including Sasha at Universe - Pleasure Planet, probably the most popular house mix amongst UK ravers to date! For me, this is where my house journey began and I still draw a lot of influence from the early 90’s.

This one's loaded with classics throughout. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did mixing it 😎

History Of My House - Chapter 2 - 07-08-20 (Sasha - Universe)

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  😎
