This year I celebrate 24 years as a pro DJ in the Rave business on exactly the same day as Raindance. Even though I was a DJ from a very young age Raindance was my first big break back in 1989 so I always see it as my proper début in to the Rave scene...

It is a massive challenge trying to pick from so many wicked tunes... so the track list is simply a mixed bag of tunes that bring back great memories of Jenkins Lane and all of the Raindance tours that I was involved in through the early years.

Hope you enjoy and hope you can make it to our 24 years celebrations on 5th October 2013 at The Suffolk Street Warehouse in London.

The legendary Ratpack entertaining a packed out seOne club at the Raindance 'Slightly Late Valentines Ball' in February 2009... Old Skool classics as only Ratpack know how in front world's greatest rave crowd - Raindance!!

Ratpack *Live* @ Raindance, seOne, London (21/02/09)

An extremely rare good sound quality version of this Raindance classic live mix tape. Hope you enjoy the memories and the history!

Slipmatt - Live @ Raindance The Egg 30-03-1991

Here's a mix I did back in 1991 around the time we were doing small events at the Raindance Clubhouse in Jenkins Lane, the recording is OK, not the best as it's from cassette but I've managed to brighten it up a bit. I have a feeling this may have been edited slightly at some point but for me it's one of my favourites. Hope you enjoy... please download and share :)

Slipmatt - The Raindance Clubhouse Mix 1991

This was apparently the best selling live Fantazia mixtape in 1993 so I was told....just info and certainly not a big up..... and it featured my good friend Food Junkie on the other side as far as I remember. Absolutely love the recording with all the crowd noise, it really captures the atmosphere.... Amazing memories! ...Sounds of the Joker, sounds of the Scallywag :)........reach for the sky!!!

Slipmatt - Live @ Fantazia Littlecote House NYE 31-12-1992

This is a set of tunes specifically picked from what I used to play at Raindance in 1990 / 1991 when it was actually at Jenkins Lane, and was recorded live at The Coronet on Saturday... the tunes do get quite tough in places but that's how it really was back then with lots of European tracks in the mix of things...great memories... hope you enjoy!

In the early 2000's , 'Rock Your Body Rock' was made legendary as one of the biggest tracks on the "All Gone Pete Tong'" movie soundtrack... 10 years later, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike take on Ferry Corsten's Ibiza classic  in another anthemic mainstage remix ... 

"We actually lived in Ibiza while this track was taking over almost every club on the island.. remember hearing it for the first time in Amnesia and were totally mind-blown.. 
I think we watched 'All Gone Pete Tong' at least 20 times back in the day... so remixing this track was an honor as well as a big challenge... "

On March 6th, Ferry Corsten will spin a world premiere of the full version on his ' Corsten's Countdown' ... and to warm you guys up... here is a 90 second preview!!

2 Bad Mice (Feat. DJ Faydz) Live PA - Retro-Trax Festival 2013
This year we were once again joined on stage by the one and only DJ Faydz. And here's the result!! 

2 Bad Mice (Feat. DJ Faydz) Live PA - Retro-Trax Festival 2013

Godfather’, ‘Legend’, ‘International Hero’. All accolades attributed by loving fans Worldwide to the DJ, Producer and scene pioneer known as ‘Slipmatt’. For over three decades, this dubplate diamond has been changing the game, staying on the pulse and keeping ahead of the curve, packing dancefloors and selling out clubs long before it was cool and still does so to this very day.
  
Having produced a ton of successful singles and compiled a number of hit selling mix albums under his ‘Slipmatt’ alias for some of the World’s most respected record labels including United Dance and Ministry Of Sound, ‘Slipmatt’ is also one of the masterminds behind legendary production outfit SL2 (along with Lime and MC Jay), the visionaries responsible for the chart smashing anthems ‘On A Ragga Tip’ & ‘Way In My Brain’ among many others on the iconic label XL Recordings, home to legendary acts such as ‘The Prodigy’, ‘Basement Jaxx’; and ‘Adele’. 

‘On A Ragga Tip’ is presently enjoying a resurgence of popularity as it goes on the current Virgin Media TV ad as part of their Un-Limiting adverts which includes the new ‘On A Ragga Tip’ Un-Limiting Remix, which has equally proved as popular as ever with dancefloors around the globe and this year alone is scheduled  to collaborate in the studio with Shades Of Rhythm, Andy Galea of Sol Brothers, Alex P, Awesome 3, Alexis Raphael, Sooney and, his good friend DJ Lime with some brand new SL2 releases also in the pipeline.

This wayward don of dance has also played at every major dance event and venue worth knowing about over the years including Energy, Telepathy, Fantazia, Vision, Universe, World Dance, United Dance, Dreamscape, Helter Skelter, Slammin’ Vinyl, Rezurrection, Elevation, Moondance, Raindance, Peace Fest, Clockwork Orange and to top it all off had the great honour of playing directly after his good friends ‘The Prodigy’ to a packed O2 Arena of over 20, 000 people, bringing that particular night to an epic close, and ringing in the year 2014 with a tremendous bang.

‘Slipmatt’ also repeatedly continues to play across the globe in the USA, Asia, Australia, Europe and every corner of his native UK for a string of well recognised and well attended club promotions, festivals and events. He’s no stranger to a Festival or two either playing at leading big top gigs such as Glastonbury, Boomtown and We Are Festival and there has also been and continues to be multiple overseas visits to Ibiza where Slipmatt still to this day enjoys regular return trips to the White Isle’s most infamous hot spots to play such as Eden, Es Paradis and Benimussa Park (The Zoo) 

His media outreach is quite noteworthy also, having started RAW FM, been a resident on Kiss FM, a regular in M8 Magazine and Mixmag, featured in the illustrious DJ Magazine Top 100, he’s been on BBC television a number of times including the famous chart show ‘Top Of The Pops’, runs two of his own popular Radio shows and Podcasts ‘World Of Rave’ and ‘Slip’s House’ and additionally, has won a multitude of awards, including that of ‘Best DJ’ and ‘Best Producer’ awarded by some of the industries most respected bodies such as Kiss FM and EHM.

Not one to ever slow down or fall behind and always keeping himself fresh and relevant, this dancefloor don has been focusing lately on the biggest and best house beats, which has led him to an already extraordinarily busy 2020. Add to that his upcoming book “My Story (and How I Became a World Class DJ)”, which is set to be a smash hit amongst rave fanatics the World over later this year and with over a hundred gigs booked for 2020 already (mid-Feb), there are no signs of this crowd pleasing international artist slowing down any time soon. 

Godfather Of Rave and still keeping it fresh? Definitely.
