Back in 1991/2, the rave scene in the UK was at its peek. It was a whole new generation and a movement of kids from all backgrounds, races and nationality's, who came together at weekends to dance in clubs, fields and warehouses.

The music was brand new, super fresh and exciting.

1991 was a big historic year for the rave scene in Newcastle. The mighty Rezerection party's started and were a monthly occurrence in the Mayfair club. The Nocturnal outdoor all-nighters also were happening in Cramlington.

During this time, a weekly rave night was held in a club called Walkers in the heart of Newcastle. I was there almost every weekend, sometimes on a Friday & Saturday.

On New Years Eve 1991 I was in Walkers with the usual crowd of mates and Mikey Roots was DJ'ing. The other resident DJ hadn't turned up, so Mikey ask me and one of my mates, Olly, to play. 

Rob (The Robot from Rezerection) drove me home to pick up some records.

I'd never used Technics before and never DJ'd outside of my bedroom. I was terrified. My hands were shaking getting the first record out the sleeve and putting the needle on it. The mixing was terrible and I might of played something on 33 instead of 45. I can't remember the exact tunes I played, but I kicked off with 'Everything Starts With An E' and can remember playing Stratosphere by Trigger, which I later sampled in the first track I made in 1996 - Cockrot - www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ACEN-e_KJE

The set went down pretty well and one or two people who were there at the time still go on about hearing Everything Starts With An E.

To celebrate the 30th anniversary of the set, I put together a set of trax played regularly in Walkers at this time, for my monthly residency show on Method Radio - https://www.facebook.com/methodradiouk
