Back to Love (Club Class #1)(Lost Gems, Forgotten Remixes & Timeless Classics) - Mixed by Mark Anthony (March 2021)

First mix from my private stash of home listening grooves. All the tracks are timeless vocal 'sing-a-long' house tracks that were released in 1991/1992, so there all 30 years old or thereabouts! 

Some of them you will no doubt know, some of them you may not. There are a couple of huge timeless club classics in the mix but I've opted to play the lesser known mixes (mainly because there my favorite versions!) and they've been slightly overshadowed over the years and forgotten about... 

I really hope you enjoy it. If you do then please don't be shy, show it some love, give it a like  and share it with your friends on social media. Don't forget to follow me for more future mixes...

Old School Warehouse Mix '88-'89

Allister Whitehead's Return To Shine

With Allister coming back to The Hacienda for the Christmas party at Sankeys on 27/12/16 which sees some eight of the clubs original residents reunited, here with a very special mix which puts together the set he performed back in November 1991 on the first night of his Shine residency,

Following The Hacienda's re-opening in 1990, Shine was the Friday night replacement to the long running Nude and saw Mike Pickering and Russ take charge of the night alongside special guests who included the likes of Todd Terry, K Klass, Sasha and more. 

About the opportunity,  Allister comments;

"I was asked by Mike Pickering in 1991 to cover for him at ’Shine’  on Friday’s  while he was touring and recording with M-People. Not many DJ’s got the chance to play the Hacienda, it was like being asked to play for England!   Obviously, things went well for Mike and I became resident from 1992 - 93 on Friday’s at Shine and I did Tuesday’s as well for a while.  We had some great guests (Todd Terry, Kevin Sanderson etc...) and some special nights, including a few of the infamous foam parties, which were amazing and pretty close to the incredible Nude nights back in 88/89. To play the Hacienda at full pelt was a rare thing for a DJ apart from Graeme and Mike and has provided memories I will treasure all my life. Thanks must go to Mike Pickering, Graeme Park, Peter Hook and Ang Matthews."

Dusting down and digitising the same set from that night, Allister pulls together a number of the tunes that characterised The Hacienda in late 1991 including US club hit Brother Makes 3 to open. Union City Recording's hit Mombassa "Cry Freedom" follows up whilst the mix also includes carat gold classics, Denise Lopez's "Dont You Wanna Be Mine", Rusty "Everything's Gonna Change" and the Sasha remix of Jimi Polo's "Better Days".

Allister Whitehead's Return To Shine Tracklisting

3. Klubzone 1 - Soft To Hard

trance anthems

neilforeel 40th b day set

I used to play these tunes back in the day at Omalley's Hotel in Brougham Street Kings Cross, Sydney. The morning recovery parties were always more fun than the night before. With seated bean bags, hand delivered fruit platters and party friendly, just awesome! After hours of hearing tunes & catching up with friends over recovery beers, under Popeye, I would play these piano sets to a full crowd into the evening - those were the days. 

100% Vinyl Mix on 1210's. Recorded on Abelton Live and slightly pitched up. Full length mixes, no splice & dice or mega mixes.

Back to Love (Athenaeum & Hacienda Classics) - Mixed by Mark Anthony (April 2020)

Inspired by the 'Hacienda' live stream over the weekend and the fact I haven't done one for a while I thought it was time to do another classics mix. I don't usually do them but I was feeling quite nostalgic and as we're all on lockdown and can't get out, why not... 

As with the last classics mix from 5 years ago this mix features tracks that are all favorites of mine and were played at either the Hacienda, Paradise Factory or the best pre-club bar in Manchester at the time 'The Athenaeum'.

Every track has a special place in my heart and brings back fond memories of special moments in time out on the dancefloor.

Play it loud, sing, dance, smile, enjoy...

Back to Love (Athenaeum, Hacienda & Home Nightclub Classics)(Part 1 - The Athenauem 1993/1994) - Mixed by Mark Anthony (December 2020)

Finishing the year 2020 with a selection of my personal favorites from back in the day. For me 1993 & 1994 were 2 of the best years musically with so many of the tracks now seen as classics.

If you lived in Manchester you probably use to start your weekend at the 'Atheneaum' which was easily the best pre-clubbing venue ever. The resident DJ's there were Planet Janet (aka Guy Williams & partner) and if I remember correctly Allister Whitehead was also a regular guest. Week after week these guys provided musical entertainment that was just beyond perfection. It was just a shame it had to close at 11 pm due to the licensing laws back then. 

I had the privilege of DJ'ing there about 5 times between 1994 and 1995 and the place holds many special memories. This mix features some of the tracks that ended up being my personal favorites from 'The Athenaeum'. Every track has a place in my heart and brings back fond memories of those special moments in time. The were however so many tracks that I love from back then that I couldn't fit them all in to one mix so Part 2 coming soon! 

1. NuColours - Power (E Smoove Anthem Mix)
2. Loni Clark - U (K Klass Klub Mix)
3. Mother - All Funked Up
4. K-Klass - Let Me Show You Love (Klub Mix)
