2024

A selection of some of my favourite house records from 10 years ago all the way back to the late 80's. This early house music inspired me to live with obsession around it and some of these records still sound so fresh and upfront today... so full of character and life... so colourful, especially when held up against the backdrop of some of the modern house music blandness that abounds in all it's different shades of grey.

I believe there are some new producers out there who are genuinely taking house music in their stride and injecting their own uniqueness and pushing it forward. To me it seems those are the ones that also keep one foot in the past, who have a knowledge of the heritage of true house music and who really understand it in essence and where it came from. Some people out there need to realise that it just needs to be called "House" and if it is deep, the people will hear and feel that for themselves.

***By the way, people have asked so I'll write it on here... the guy in the picture is me, and that actually is my old house (now sadly derelict), as well as the fact that these are my old house records.
