Lock is a track from my latest album, Expanse. It's my most recently recorded music, completed in January and February 2022. It was made during a time of reflection and deeper understanding, new ideas leading to new discoveries. Emotive, peaceful and atmospheric, I hope the music helps bring some calm and space to everyone who listens.

Lock - from the album Expanse

This was a live jam recorded during lockdown and slowly moulded into a 12 minute piece, down from 60 mins.

Features pure analogue synths, a cross between Disco, Techno, Acid House and Trance.

This is a digitised copy of a tape I picked up in 1993, when David Morales played at the Hacienda 11th birthday party. I was actually there that night, Morales played in the basement (not usually open at the Hac) from 4-6am, while Frankie Knuckles played in the main room.

Stripped to the waist, wearing a skull cap & tattooed muscles, Morales played street tough New York City house music, and there's lessons in here for modern DJs. I know this mix off by heart, and re-listening to it 21 years later, I can say it's still fresh. 

This particular night at The Hacienda has gone down in legend - for the wrong reasons. The club was full of local gangsters, taking watches from wrists and starting fights. These were the 'gunchester' days, you had to keep your head down.

Listen to the mix - at the end the record abruptly ends, starts again and then ends. This was when Morales was being mugged by a pack of 'scallies' - I myself witnessed them hit him on the head with a glass, lean over the decks and take his vinyl.

This episode was written up in Peter Hook's excellent book - 'How Not To Run A Club'. Apparently after the incident Morales said "you don't pay me enough to bleed"....

Luckily you can now enjoy from the safety of your own home!!

Rave on :)
