Teenage DJ aka Greg Wilson ‘Time And Place (Disco Break)’

124 bpm

Previously limited vinyl only 2005.

Another of the Acid sketches I put together in the years prior to my DJ return(more detailed lowdown here: http://soundcloud.com/gregwilson/teenage-dj-aka-greg-wilson-i), this time drawing on the groove from Oliver Cheatham’s 1983 release, ‘Get Down Saturday Night’.

My working title for it was ‘Twister’(Twist via Oliver) and, having immediately spotted its commercial possibilities, I resolved to develop it further . However, I left it on the backburner too long, my plan biting the dust good and proper when I realised that someone had well and truly beaten me to the punch - an Italo-Belgian DJ called Vito Lucente, who’d score a #1 hit in 2002 with the Room 5 single ‘Make Luv’, which also featured part of the original vocal to great effect. There was no point pursuing the ‘Twister’ idea now, so with a ‘such is life’ shrug of the shoulders I resigned it to the ‘what might have been’ file.

However, when I started deejaying again I realised the ‘Twister’ would come in handy, so I began to play it here and there. The Room 5 was too housed-up for me to consider using, not to mention the fact it had been played to death, but ‘Twister’ retained the early 80’s feel that fitted my vibe – it was a useful track to drop when you needed to give the dancefloor something familiar, but with your own twist. Subsequently, it was an obvious candidate for the ‘Teenage DJ Disco Best’ 12” EP I pressed up in 2005 – with ‘I Was A Teenage DJ Pt 1’ providing such a strong lead track, it could play an important subsidiary role, which is exactly what transpired. It was at this point it became 'Time And Place (Disco Break)', referencing some of the samples I'd dropped in.

I actually met Oliver Cheatham when ‘Get Down Saturday Night’ was released in the UK back in ’83. His record company, MCA, brought him to my night at Legend in Manchester, where he made a personal appearance, performing the single on the club’s dancefloor. Wigan Pier and Legend hosted numerous PA’s in the early 80’s, none of which we paid the acts for, their record companies footing the bill as part of their promotional budget, wanting to get their artists exposure in the most influential dance venues.Other PA’s included Gwen Guthrie, Imagination and David Joseph (it was a consequence of the David Joseph PA that I was invited to demonstrate mixing on the TV show ‘The Tube’:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=77sjud0zLJY) .

Juno Review

The Sound of Detroit by one of it's unsung heroes, Amp Fiddlers new album Motor City Booty coming straight off the D Funk assembly line, a full on dance floor affair from Motown to P-Funk, Techno and Neo Soul. This 11 track album produced by Amp Fiddler & Yam Who? includes the massive 'Soul Fly' sounding like a Mark Ronson production had he been hanging out with George Clinton's Parlet followed by the bonafide P-Funk anthem 'Steppin' both featuring the stunning vocals by the Dames Brown girls. Amp Fiddler is credited for taking both a young J Dilla and also Q-Tip under his wing teaching them his Akai MPC techniques, setting the path for some of Hip Hops finest recordings which have defined the shape of things to come. His musical collaborations & current duties include: Moodymann's musical maestro, keyboard wizard for Theo Parrish's live band, a longstanding Funkadelic member, co-writer for Sly & Robbie, Prince, Maxwell, Jamiroquai & Seal to name a few.

More relevant than ever, ‘World Gone Crazy’ sums up many people’s thoughts in these turbulent times.

This version appeared on the 'Greg Wilson Presents Super Weird Substance' compilation, a GW edit featuring elements of both the club dub and original mix. It was not previously available on SoundCloud until now.

'World Gone Crazy' was the fourth 12" single on Super Weird Substance back in July 2015. Originally written in the early nineties as part of the Mind Body & Soul project Greg Wilson was then developing with singer Tracey Carmen, it was intended for an album that never was and only a demo version was ever recorded. 

Its lyrics identified an information age already spiralling out of control. Two decades on however, and it’s far beyond anything anyone could have imagined back then. Originally referencing the post-acid house generation, ‘a generation lost and disillusioned’ now becomes the sixties generation, growing old in a world even more corrupt and confused than the one they thought they’d change.

It was suggested that 'World Gone Crazy' would be perfect for Leeds singer/musician The Reverend Cleve Freckleton and gruff gravitas of The Reverend’s voice was exactly what the track needed, serving to give its words more poignancy now than when they were written. 

Channeling the fire and spectacle of a spiritual laden Deep South service, Cleve cuts a commanding figure, calling out the world’s wrongs from his sonic pulpit. 'World Gone Crazy' was adroitly programmed by Peza, with The Reynolds and the song’s original singer, Tracey Carmen, providing powerful bvox and Ché Wilson weighing in with funk-laced rhythm guitar.

Yvonne Gage is still working as a backing singer extraordinaire, having worked with a list of household names as long as your arm in her 30 year career. She had a few short stints as a solo artist, but never enjoyed the kind of success some of her peers earned.
I was given this record 12 years ago by a football coach clearing out his attic - turns out it's fairly sought after, not to mention a wicked groove.

Hot R.S was a disco-rock band from Johannesburg, South Africa, running from 1977-1980. They were actually a “phantom band” that was made up of only studio recordings. They had no live performances, and no photos of the band. The name Hot R. S. comes from the acronym House of the Rising Sun.
