A time that can never be replicated or even approached in terms of sheer quality, Florida in the 90s.  Simply sublime.

Wow!  Thought I would never relive this!  I was at Firestone for this mind blown journey.

HELL YEAH forgot about this one as well...!!!

My latest progressive breaks track after being out of the studio for the last 2 months written after being around some emotional events in the past week or so. I also was heavily influenced by the Aeron Aether remix of "Moments of Love" by Abdomen Burst, one of my current favorite tracks.
Thanks.

Check out the fantastic remix by my good friend Trukers from Spain:

Scott Riley isn't a name that most old schoolers will call out when you talk about your favorite Orlando DJs from back in the day.  However not to mention him in the history of the Orlando rave scene would be a major oversight. Scott was the resident DJ at Firestone on Thursday nights and dropped a ton of good tracks that filled the gaps until the big weekend events came up. Just check out these 2 sets to hear the quality of tunes Scott was playing.

Facebook Live Mix (10-10-20)

Electronic music aficionado since 1991.   DJ Since 94. Producer since  2001. Record Label Owner (Stellar Records), early 00’s.  Collector of classic 90’s DJ Sets.  Current purveyor of modern progressive breaks and deep house via Black Coffee dj mix series. 

Had the privilege of “being there” in halcyon days of the early US rave scene at ground zero - Orlando, FL.  Our  (at the time) small, Disney focused town become the launch pad for the American Rave scene via the amazing DJs and promoters that were ahead of their time led by Kimball Collins at Aahz  playing  upfront dance music (simply called house back then) that was generally only found across the Atlantic. Kimball and other local DJs mixed music expertly in our burgeoning underground clubs here to the late hours of the morning often bleeding into the next day igniting a decade long explosion of club music throughout the city.  If you were there, you know.   Aahz spawned a host of iconic clubs including Firestone (now Vanguard), The Edge, the Abyss, Barberella, Marz and on and on.  Huge one off raves like Trance Atlantic and Zen fast followed  setting the stage for todays EDC, bringing more global talent to our dancing city, laying down musical history that everyone that lived it will certainly “Rave” about for the rest of their lives. 

Being a part of that scene led me, like many others, to pursue my own path in creating electronic music.  A passion for DJing led to endless Orlando house parties in early 90s, before joining the Stellar Brand/team in DC providing a residency at Tracks nightclub and  opening up gigs at clubs throughout the DC, Northern Virginia and Maryland before returning to Orlando in 2004.  

Still listening, buying, spinning, sharing the music that moves me. It has been and always will be all about the music. 

I continue to post recent sets here on soundclould and I often steam live over at Mixcloud.com
