Return2Source Live Sets 20.08.2021

Druid @ Return 2 Source 20.08.2021 Birmingham

Shocked and saddened to hear that Stu Allan passed away this week, to say he was a legend is an understatement, he was the scene for me in Manchester throughout the nineties thanks to his radio show on key 103 and his sets at places like Club Kinetic and Bowlers, he played many styles over the years including Hip Hop and Chicago House but I obviously remember him for his Bouncy Techno and Hardcore sets, the first rave tape I ever heard was a Stu Allan at Club Kinetic tape and it changed my life (literally) never heard anything so amazing before and I wore the tape out, fixed it with cello tape and wore it out even more, it was like Christmas when someone told me he did a radio show on key 103, so there I was recording every week trying to stop the recording to miss the adverts and then listening to that recording in school all week, usually so much I got my walkman confiscated.
This is my tribute, just some of the many tracks he played that I loved, for all the cheeky monkeys, rest in peace Stu ...

DJ A.K. - Stu Allan Tribute Mix 23.09.22

There’s not many DJs who would be as amazing playing happy hardcore as they were gabber or 90s jungle, or piano house or hip hop but Stu Allan could (and did) it all. He would go from playing jungle at Quest in Wolverhampton to playing hard gabber at Doncaster Warehouse with ease and he had fans in every genre. He will be very missed.

As a bit of a genre hopper myself, the loss of this legend makes me realise there’s not many people like him left, dance music is so compartmentalised these days and you rarely find people into different styles of rave music. As a kid in the late 90s I didn’t even know he had a weekly radio show in Manchester, I’m only just listening to them now and realising how great he was on the radio too, always pushing new music whatever the style.

My Dad died a year ago this week from cancer and Stu’s passing has brought a lot of tears to my eyes the last few days, reading tributes from people like Carl Cox, Slipmatt, Grooverider, Brisk, they all loved and respected Stu so much and it brings home how much of a father figure he was in dance music, I’m not sure there’s another like him out there.

This week all I’ve listened to is Stu Allan sets, all his radio shows are on YouTube and soundcloud and I’ve been hammering them. Stu Allan you have my total respect...this mix is for you.

Saturday Seshions 'Force & Styles Special' - HDSN (Live On Twitch 24/10/20)

My early years as a teenage DJ, I’d regularly tune into Stu Allan on key 103 every Sunday night to hear the latest breakbeat, jungle, hardcore & techno which was all played at the legendary Club Kinetic in Stoke. Those early tapes from the live sets at the club set me on a journey to becoming a DJ so it’s only right that I cover this area in full detail. This mix is all my favourite old skool & happy hardcore from 92 - 97.
