TONY WALKER'S - FUNKYLOVE SPRING MIX 2020

Back to Love (Athenaeum, Hacienda & Home Nightclub Classics)(Part 1 - The Athenauem 1993/1994) - Mixed by Mark Anthony (December 2020)

Finishing the year 2020 with a selection of my personal favorites from back in the day. For me 1993 & 1994 were 2 of the best years musically with so many of the tracks now seen as classics.

If you lived in Manchester you probably use to start your weekend at the 'Atheneaum' which was easily the best pre-clubbing venue ever. The resident DJ's there were Planet Janet (aka Guy Williams & partner) and if I remember correctly Allister Whitehead was also a regular guest. Week after week these guys provided musical entertainment that was just beyond perfection. It was just a shame it had to close at 11 pm due to the licensing laws back then. 

I had the privilege of DJ'ing there about 5 times between 1994 and 1995 and the place holds many special memories. This mix features some of the tracks that ended up being my personal favorites from 'The Athenaeum'. Every track has a place in my heart and brings back fond memories of those special moments in time. The were however so many tracks that I love from back then that I couldn't fit them all in to one mix so Part 2 coming soon! 

1. NuColours - Power (E Smoove Anthem Mix)
2. Loni Clark - U (K Klass Klub Mix)
3. Mother - All Funked Up
4. K-Klass - Let Me Show You Love (Klub Mix)
5. Aretha Franklin - A Deeper Love (C&C Music Factory Mix)
6. Janet Jackson - If (Brothers In Rhythm House Mix)
7. D-Ream - U R The Best Thing (Perfecto Mix)
8. All Boxed In - Happen (Trolley's Stressed Mix)
9. Joe Roberts - Lover (K-Klass Klub Mix)
10. Shy One - Another Man (Matthew Roberts Mix)
11. Maria Christensen - Just A Little Bit Of Love (Extended Club Mix)
12. Mariah Carey - Dream Lover (Def Club Mix)
13. Ruby Turner - Never Gonna Give You Up (Bump Mix)
14. Clubland - (I'm Under) Love Strain (Stonebridge 94 Mix)

Play it loud, sing, dance, smile, enjoy...

Mark Tillotson Funky Vocal Classics Part 1

Like most DJs, Mark’s career started out in his bedroom.  A passion for collecting records from an early age saw him go through numerous sets of 1210s before he finally decided to keep a pair and focus on improving his skills.

Mark spent hours upon hours in a very geeky way mastering Tricks and Skills on the newly produced Pioneer CDJ’s reading magazines, Watching Tutorials, anything to train his brain on what every button or knob did or how these machines worked to which proved vital later on in his Djin sets… 

Mark often uses 3 decks when mixing running Acapella’s over songs, Recording Loops & Samples which he uses in all his sets.. Mesmerising tricks which makes Mark a little or totally different from the normal Dj and something which makes people know or aware when he’s on the decks.. 
 
From day one, Mark concentrated solely on playing the sound he loved - Vocal Funkyhouse music. A genre he now knows literally inside out. Mark has truly mastered the sound he loves, Mark is proud to stay true to his roots.

With his foot firmly in the door and with his confidence reaching new heights, Mark found himself in demand and became a regular fixture on Manchester’s gay scene resident at Queer Bar, Essential nightclub, and also Leeds most famous night SpeedQueen on which he was resident for nearly 5 years. 

In 2010, Venus nightclub moved from its former Deansgate home to a new club on Blackfriars and with the new venue, came new ideas. Some nights were not as popular as others and as such were facing the axe.  One of the fated nights was Venus Classics and eager to come to the rescue, Mark asked club manager Ben Egerton if he could take over the night. Ben agreed to give Mark a three month period to get Classics back on track.

With Mark at the helm and a dedicated funkyhouse team of Venus resident, Mark began booking and playing alongside his dream producers & artists DJs & Live PA guests such as Junior Jack & Kid Creme, Grant Nelson, Mark Doyle, Freemasons, Soraya Vivian, Warren Clarke, Lisa Millet, Julie McKnight, Stonebridge, Seamus Haji, KKlass, Paul Taylor - to name but a few - Classics went from strength to strength.  Mark’s vision of developing a true funkyhouse night was beginning to take shape and putting the Venus Classics night back on track.  With Classics now rating the busiest night at Venus, Mark’s passion and love for his music has finally paid off.

But Mark’s dream doesn’t end there.  Nostalgic for the mis-spent nights of his youth, and inspired by the popularity of his music in Manchester, Mark decided it was time to bring a slice of the good old days back over the Pennines to Leeds…

Thus was born his latest venture. THE FUNKYHOUSE CLUB LEEDS..   

A night totally dedicated to playing nothing but, True Funky Vocal House Music.. Bringing back the sounds and vibes that Leeds was once buzzing with, Mark’s dream is to keep playing the music he loves within a city he has fond memories of.  Bringing together equally devoted DJs, PAs and other artistes Mark’s vision of a night that puts a smile on everyone’s face whilst raising money for good causes.. 

Funkyhouse Club is still vibrant amongst the Leeds nightlife bringing likeminded people together enjoying the music they love..
