Lil'Louis & The World 'Club Lonely' (Shield Re-Edit)

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 :)

Charli XCX & Billie Eilish - Guess ( MONKS Remix )

Kléo s second release Acid Coolada’ is a meticulous blend of deep, groove-heavy acid house elements with a spontaneous flair and live instrumentation, striking the perfect balance of fiery heat and warm groove.

2023 saw the birth of Kléo’s label Call 4 Rhythm, brought into the world with her much-lauded debut EP 'Agogo'. Now, exactly a year later, hotlines have opened once again as the next call for rhythm is upon us. ‘Acid Coolada’ retains Kléo's direct and honest attitude, but this second offering also unveils a bold new live approach. Carefully layering compelling house elements with live keys by Dion Groebe the two tracks diverge into vigorous, alternative directions like contrasting sides of the same coin. The result is another essential offering for discerning dancers, ready to be put on speed dial. 

Opener ‘Acid Coolada’ starts off unapologetically and pulls us straight to the dancefloor. In case you were wondering whether the title is referring to a brisk after sun ritual or a spicy party cocktail, it’s definitely the latter. Located somewhere in the middle of a jackin’ pit we’re greeted with acid house, jazzy progressions and unmistakable live twists and turns. Be prepared to get stuck—though in the best way,  as Dion Groebe guides us with a reckless Rhodes solo in full live mode throughout the whole track. The frenzy swallows you up in a relentless, euphoric ride that seems to have no end, and perhaps no begining— being present is what matters most here.

The flip side takes a trippy turn, ascending to a moodier realm of the galaxy. With ‘Sand Waves’ Kléo reveals a deeper side of herself. The jackin’ touch is undeniably there, but this side lifts off more gently, slowly immersing into a spacey synth journey, highlighted by Groebe’s playful live keys wandering like a lizard eagerly exploring a rocky surface. As ‘Sand Waves’ unfolds into another dance floor igniter, the blazing heat of 'Acid Coolada' cools down beneath a sweeping breeze reminding us that we’re getting that ‘feel good’ after-sun ritual after all.

KISS Club Classics feat Louie Vega 4-22-2000' (Manny'z Tapez)

"Fractured Acid" is a pulsating journey into a blend of 80s style and modern elecronic music. Produced entirely by Mr. Gali, this track channels the raw energy of classic acid synths like the legendary TB-303. 
A must-listen for fans of classic electronic music, synthwave, and anyone who appreciates the raw power of analog synths.

Fractured Acid - Mr. Gali

DJ and producer from Split, Croatia, exploring the sounds of late 1980s and 1990s Chicago house, especially its raw and acid-style elements, blended with modern house grooves. I love creating mixes and tracks that bring together the old-school vibe with a fresh, updated twist. While I’m still growing and doing this as a passion project, I’m all about sharing my love for house music and keeping the dancefloor moving.
