John Kelly - Universe Pleasure Planet 19-06-1992

A part of the very fabric of the UK techno scene, Dave Angel’s status as an erudite for electronic culture is not based upon hyperbole or smothered in exhausting superlatives but cemented in facts and encased in the endless memories of those who have lived, loved and danced to the astonishing output of music he has created over the years.

Born the son of a Jazz musician and elder brother to British hip-hop artist Monie Love, Dave’s path in music came to the fore during the explosion of the acid house scene in London back in the late 80’s. Hosting one of the zeitgeist shows of its time, Dave’s weekly broadcast on pirate radio station Phaze One saw him champion a new sound that was gradually captivating the youth of the country and which would later catapult him into the media spot light with notable publications like Mixmag, DJ Magazine and The Guardian all proclaiming Dave as a one of the major forces in the UK techno/acid house scene.

DJing formed a natural progression into the recording process and in 1989 after tinkering at home with a basic set-up of a keyboard and two tape decks Dave’s first attempts at production created a somewhat controversial remix of Eurhythmics ‘Sweet Dreams’, which Dave called his ‘Nightmare Mix’.

Dave Angel @ Obsession - 3rd Dimension, Westpoint nr. Exeter, U.K.  30.10.1992

This mix was inspired by a set I heard at an illegal free party somewhere in the Gloucestershire countryside in 1994. Me and 3 mates had driven for hours to find the party, and ended up buying some Mushrooms from a bloke when we arrived. Most of the music that night was banging techno and hard core drum & bass, but at about 5am an unknown DJ came on an played a set of deep, melodic but driving progressive house and early trance... Apart from being very brave to slow down the tempo of that rave, the DJ & his set completely blew my mind and everyone else's who was there.

The tunes in my set are some that I can remember from that night (Li Kwan, Emporion, Pete Lazonby, Clanger) with a few others I've thrown in. 

As always, I mixed this on two Technics 1210's with an Allen & Heath Xone22 mixer via Serato. No sync'ing or computer trickery allowed.

Feel free to comment or share if you like the tunes, or if you want any track ID's ect. 

I hope you enjoy, 12 Inch Lover xx
