Takes me back to Southport and MoS, great nights/weekends.  True Masters - name says it all.

DJ and producer, Terry Farley heads back to the 'second summer of love' and celebrates some of the biggest Acid House tracks, 25 years on.

Along with Andrew Weatherall, the duo started the now notorious Boy's Own fanzine in 1986, which commented on the slang, the parties, the tunes and the humour of the acid house days, and which also lead to the creation of the label Junior Boys Own. This imprint specialised in dance music and put out records by Orbital and Dig Your Own Hole by The Chemical Brothers, which celebrates 15 years this year.

Terry began making productions with Andy Weatherall, Hugo Nicholson and Pete Heller under the name Bocca Juniors. He later teamed up with Pete Heller and has gone on to re-mix many of the world's leading artists and singers: everyone from U2 to New Order; to the Happy Mondays and Primal Scream at the height of Balearica. He has also produced Kylie Minogue, The Farm and M People.

About the CD:
So happy to finally get to hear disc one of this brilliant cd. When I originally swapped the disc way back in 1998 it only had disc 2... and I'm delighted to discover this one is just as good. It's an absolutely epic house double CD, released in 1996 by the fine folks at Ministry Of Sound. And one which is another great reason to celebrate and remember the man himself, thank you Frankie. Remember to buy the CD (if it's still available) from the link above or other good sellers online. Turn it up and enjoy the mix!

Special shout out to the ever helpful Nick Sneddon for sorting our disc 1!

090 - Frankie Knuckles - Ministry Of Sound Sessions Vol. 6 - Disc One (1996)

This is a digitised copy of a tape I picked up in 1993, when David Morales played at the Hacienda 11th birthday party. I was actually there that night, Morales played in the basement (not usually open at the Hac) from 4-6am, while Frankie Knuckles played in the main room.

Stripped to the waist, wearing a skull cap & tattooed muscles, Morales played street tough New York City house music, and there's lessons in here for modern DJs. I know this mix off by heart, and re-listening to it 21 years later, I can say it's still fresh. 

This particular night at The Hacienda has gone down in legend - for the wrong reasons. The club was full of local gangsters, taking watches from wrists and starting fights. These were the 'gunchester' days, you had to keep your head down.

Listen to the mix - at the end the record abruptly ends, starts again and then ends. This was when Morales was being mugged by a pack of 'scallies' - I myself witnessed them hit him on the head with a glass, lean over the decks and take his vinyl.

This episode was written up in Peter Hook's excellent book - 'How Not To Run A Club'. Apparently after the incident Morales said "you don't pay me enough to bleed"....

Luckily you can now enjoy from the safety of your own home!!

Rave on :)

Ministry Of Sound Sessions Volume 4

546 - Ministry Of Sound Sessions Vol. 4 mixed by CJ Mackintosh - Disc 1 (1995)

Running from 1986-1992, the Boy’s Own fanzine became known as ‘the village newspaper of acid house’: celebrating, documenting, and at times mercilessly lampooning the scene as it transformed everyone from the football terrace casual to the suburban soulboy. Three decades on, Terry Farley, Pete Heller and Andrew Weatherall are among the key Boy’s Own alumni still shaping dance music today.

Listen to the exclusive, incredible, Farley & Heller ‘Boys Own Summer Of Love’ mix now.

Mix cds were the soundtracks of our nights, our days, our afterparties, our lives. But in the internet age, the artform has been lost to online mixes which simply don't create the same magic your CD collection did. The Classic Mix CD Series celebrates these discs, their soundtrack, their box art and your memories. We hope you enjoy it.
