MISTER SATURDAY NIGHT BROOKLYN NYC 05.03.11 (greg wilson live mix)

Got asked to play at longstanding LDN house night Kerfuffle on NYD. Not often I get chance to play a pure house set. Twas lots of fun. Starts off a bit zippy but I pitched it down so my slippers didn't get too scuffed. Rave on.

PIKES IBIZA 07.10.24 (greg wilson live mix)

Live recording from a special daytime event at The Social in London. 

I never normally record the audience in my mixes, but, for some strange reason, there seems to have been a mic active on my device picking up the crowd. My aversion to this is that, apart from the general ambience of the room, it also picks up people chatting in or around the booth, especially in a small compact space like we were in. I hope this isn’t distracting, but, weighing things up, it was such a good day, and its so long since I’ve uploaded a mix to SoundCloud, that I think it’s only right to share regardless.

FIRST TIME IN NYC @ APT 21.10.05 (greg wilson live mix)

This is the recording from my first ever appearance in New York. The gig was arranged to launch my Credit To The Edit compilation Stateside – it was at APT in the Meatpacking District on October 21st 2005.

Most people presumed that I’d been to NYC previously, a fair assumption given the influence the city has had on me, particularly via the black / dance music of the early 80’s, which provides a defining aspect of my DJ career, but this was not only my first time there, but my first time in the US (my first time on another continent now I come to think of it). 

I was made to feel very welcome though, and there were lots of NYC DJ’s in attendance that night – as I mentioned in the accompanying text for the ‘I Was A Teenage DJ’ download (http://soundcloud.com/gregwilson/teenage-dj-aka-greg-wilson-i/) Rug N Tug’s support for the track had turned it into one of the hottest underground tunes over there ahead of my arrival. It was hardly The Beatles stepping onto American soil at JFK in Feb ‘64 with their record at the top of the charts, but I felt that the ‘Teenage DJ’ track had helped prime things nicely for my US debut.

A former New York DJ who came to see me was Barry Lederer, who’d once played a hugely influential role as Billboard’s Disco columnist back in the 70’s, taking over from the great Tom Moulton (Barry was also co-owner of Graebar Sound, the company who installed the sound systems at venues including The Saint and 12 West). He’d planned to be accompanied by his friend Mel Cheren, a true pioneer of the Disco era, who owned the Paradise Garage as well as West End Records. Barry extended apologies for the no show from Mel, who wasn’t well, and we talked about hooking up during my next visit. However, it sadly wasn’t to be as Mel died in 2007, before my return. Just six months later Barry too was no longer with us. When I’d heard the sad news of his passing I played Jimmy Ruffin’s ‘Tell Me What You Want’ (1974) at my next gig – this was his favourite Disco record, and something I often used to slip in as a much loved oldie back when I started out in the mid-70’s. 

The music I played that night at APT was rich with reference to New York’s illustrious past, including my edit of ‘Psycho Killer’ by Talking Heads, which I’d put together especially for this night - this has since become one of my best-known cut-ups. I also played no less than six Teenage DJ tracks, half of which have never been made available. Oddly, now I look back, there was only one track included from the Credit To The Edit compilation (Brenda Taylor’s ‘You Can’t Have Your Cake And Eat It Too’), which had been issued in the UK the previous August. 

As with the ‘Electric Chair Manchester 26.02.05’ live mix that I recently uploaded here as exclusive content, this recording is presented here for the first time in its entirety. It was originally split into two CD length halves, hence the fade out you’ll hear on ‘You Can’t Have Your Cake’ at the end of what was Disc 1.

Greg began DJing in 1975 and is regarded as one of the most important figures on the UK dance scene. He enjoyed hugely popular residencies in the early eighties at Wigan Pier and Manchester’s majorly influential Legend, having originally started out in his hometown, New Brighton. A pioneer of mixing in the UK, he became the first ‘dance music’ specialist hired for a regular weekly session at Manchester’s now legendary Haçienda club in 1983. Greg was instrumental in breaking the new electronic, post-disco records coming out of New York, a sound he has dubbed ‘Electro-Funk’.

In 2003 he set up electrofunkroots, a website documenting this crucial era in the evolution of dance culture. After a two decade hiatus from the booth, he returned to DJing and soon welcomed bookings throughout Europe and, subsequently, worldwide.

Greg was the first DJ to mix live on British TV, putting together the first UK radio mixes of their type for Piccadilly 261 in Manchester and showing a certain Norman Cook (later Fatboy Slim) how to scratch.

Nominated by DJ Magazine for outstanding contribution, and also named amongst their top twenty remixers of all-time, Greg’s remix credits include Grace Jones, The XX, Groove Armada, Bryan Ferry, Confidence Man, Gilberto Gil and Simian Mobile Disco, whilst he’s edited tracks by A Guy Called Gerald, Talking Heads, O.M.D., Electronic, Imagination and Missy Elliot.

In January 2009 Greg’s reputation was further enhanced when his Essential Mix on BBC Radio 1 received almost universal acclaim and was selected as one of 10 classics that spanned the show’s near 17 year history.

Greg’s Blog, ‘Being A DJ’, was launched in June 2010 for observations on various aspects of club culture now an online touchstone for an ever-increasing amount of dance enthusiasts and aficionados.

In August 2010 he co-curated areas at the inaugural Vintage Festival at Goodwood, which was named ‘Best New Festival’ at the UK Festival Awards.

He has produced a series of documentary podcasts, Time Capsule, Random Influences and Early 80’s Floorfillers, as well as the long-running blog series, Living To Music.

Greg has given talks on music and DJ culture at a number events at venues The Tate Gallery in Liverpool and London's Southbank and Institute Of Contemporary Arts, whilst in 2013 he was invited onto a panel alongside legendary figures Nile Rodgers and Giorgio Moroder @ ADE in Amsterdam. 

In 2014 he unveiled the multi-media label Super Weird Substance, focusing on recording and live events. In 2015, the label released 8 vinyl singles, brought together in the 2 CD comp, 'Greg Wilson Presents Super Weird Substance'. September 2015 saw a memorable Festival No.6 Happening in Portmeirion and Greg rounded off the year with the Liverpool-based celebration of the 40th anniversary of his first club date in 1975 as well as being presented with DJ Magazine's Industry Icon award.

Greg launched his Credit To The Edit club collective at 2016's Festival No.6 and since then has taken it to Liverpool, Berlin, Brixton, Bethnal Green and finally back to Portmeirion for Festival No.6 2017.

2017 saw his label host the epic 14 Hour Super Weird Happening at Liverpool's Florrie, following a mixtape collaboration with Alan Moore, who also appeared at the Happening, whilst it also saw the digital release of The Super Weird Society's 'Gone With The Vibe', released the following year on the first Substance Select 12" vinyl alongside 'The Ghosts Of Watling Street', 'The Best Is Yet To Come' and 'Summer Came My Way'. 2018 also saw the release of Vol.3 in Greg's long-running Credit To The Edit compilation series.

After a handful of further releases, the label was put into hibernation with the onset of covid. Diversifying, ‘Greg Wilson’s Discotheque Archives’ was issued during 2020 lockdown as a limited run paperback, with more books, both Wilson’s own projects and by other authors, now planned.
