The weekends were getting longer, it were as if they party had gone on for far too long. It had never meant to be like this, the lack of sleep was becoming stark.

Back at the beginning people had used to as if you were 'up to much?' Now it was a case of being up too much.

There was only so long that the madness could continue - only so long before the cracks began to show. Was it all a little bit far fetched for what it was worth?

You bet...

Andy Bainbridge is set to release a new EP on Not An Animal - a pumping original paired with two futuristic club expansions which take the record further beyond.

PREMIERE: Andy Bainbridge - Up Too Much (Donalds House Remix) [Not An Animal]

Purveyor Of Electronica & Original Headz - since 1997  : : : Dj : : :

Pushing phat, driving Analog Waves & grabbing dance music by the heart for three decades. Timeless.

Electronic Music for the Mind. Body + Soul.

Music is life, Life is emotions, Emotions is love... Forever Love! Spread the love!!!

: : : Spread it like the Wind Spreads...things. : : : 

it all began way back in the early 90s on a cold gloomy day, while listening to a 12'' Funky House record by the one and only legendary pioneer, Junior Jack I had dug through that day at the local record store(I think it was a white label back then and I had no clue who the record was written by at the the time!) and then the feeling took over, never left and kept evolving into a whole a lot in the magikal Electronica spectrum...uplifting & emotional Trance, Tech Trance, Progressive Trance, Club Trance, Progressive House, Electro House, House...this is all after my Funkmaster Flex era, but that's another story for another gloomy busy day....

These are some of my vintage and current DJ mixes from my 25+ years on the frontline trenches and recordings I've done from the "backstage" : : : ''bunker" sessions - just a cool spot (an expressive, creative sanctuary)I was lucky enough to hammer some wax and put together a few mixes where Black Sabbath and The Offspring used to jam in their early days. A true underground mecca, located right next to an old military base, a bunker where smoke machines, laser lights, heavy hitting line-arrays (this was before breaking over many circuits and over 20-30 pairs of speakers :/) and floor shaking//spine tingling bottoms lead the night and guide you into those blissful oceanic sunrises...creating some of the most blissful memories for me! Eventually, ended up owning and running the place, which was a nightmare on itself dealing with all the bands and artists!! 😅
Something about a small space dark room with a solid pounding sound system and blinding strobe lights....

Underground genres: Techno, Dub Techno, Dub House, Deep Techno, Melodic Techno, Tech House, Electronica, House, Deep house, Deep Tech,  Classic Progressive House, Deep Melodic, Hypnotic, Ambient, Deep Tech House, Indie dance/nu disco...doesn’t matter what genre it is, if it rocks, it rocks!!!



Exploring the beautiful, emotional and melancholic, melodic shades of, Progressive House, Techno and uplifting euphoric trance...''Underground lives forever baby - we're like roaches!''

All mixes mixed old skool analog on vinyl using XONE:92 & DB4 and are made with a whole a lot of love and a bit of grass :) -atila 

Knee Deep In Sound - no hypes, no trends, just pure techno, progressive, trance energy & distinctive four to the floor sounds.

Not An Animal is a label born from the party debris left uncleaned from London’s infamous Bad Passion parties, as ran by Chris Stoker and Andy Bainbridge.

As Chris and Andy’s energy was being devoted more and more to their musical endeavours (Chris - Ess O Ess with Jamie Blanco / Andy - Machete Savane with Saul Richards & more recently Latrec with Ali Colling) it became both a logical and inevitable step that they would eventually see the birth of their own record label, to showcase not only their own music but also that of the friends that they’ve made in over a decade of throwing and attending parties in various guises.

It’s this collective nature which means that Not An Animal cannot be pinned down to one single sound, genre or style. The music is instead linked by a commonality of taste and approach from all of the artists involved. While you can draw some slight comparisons with the contributors (which include the aforementioned Ess O Ess and Machete Savane, as well as Man Power, Lauer, Roman Flugel, Chida, Suzanne Kraft, The Backwoods, Kuniyuki, Frank Butters, Justin Van Der Volgen, Discodromo, Tiago & Angophora ) it would be impossible to say that anything truly unites them further than an open aesthetic which is receptive to sounds as various as Techno, Disco, Rock, Balearica and good old fashioned House, and which doesn’t try to draw any distinction between any of them.

Dj, producer, party person and record label busybody. 50% to blame for Not An Animal Records,  Co-Pilot producer at Machete Savane, AM edits and Latrec. 33% responsible for the debauchery of the Bad Passion parties.
