Early House

I'm putting together a mix at the moment and started playing some old house records, I love the raw energy of the first wave of house music; analogue synth sounds, primitave drum machines, hypnotic loops. Here's a couple of my favourites from that time, both of them still sounding as fresh and as relevant as ever..

Fast Eddie- Acid Thunder

Rythim is rythim- The Dance

Shocking Re-Edit

This is a re-edit I did of Love Buzz by Shocking Blue. Not wanting to tamper too much with an already great track, I just made it a little bit more DJ friendly.

OPTIMOGEDDON...

For anyone not in the know, Optimo is a club night that has been running successfully for the last 12 and a half years in Glasgow. Ran by JG Wilkes & JD Twitch, they have introduced some of the biggest, the weirdest & most wonderful bands of the past and present to an adoring Glaswegian crowd. The music policy has always been eclectic and wherever it has been possible, I've scoured the playlists for music, which over the years has influenced and introduced me and Johnny to a lot of different music.

With regret we have never being able to make the trip up to Scotland to experience the night for ourselves. So have instead relied on seeing the guys DJ'n in London and listening to the various podcasts they have put on the internet over the years.

With the last Optimo being held this sunday in Glasgow, I have posted a great live mix by JD Twitch recorded at the club in 2009. Enjoy...x
