I am here surfin the web listening to Psychotropic Hypnosis (SL2 Remix) (a 92 old skool classic), and it got me wondering if there are any old clubbers here.

I have stopped the all nighters now, but my old clubbing days will always be very close to my heart.

I will sound like a right old codger, but clubbing ain't what it used to be.

Er.. I might be, a bit. Was in Manchester late 80s and so took place in a fair bit of Madchester/Hacienda-ing. Loved all that acid stuff and then went into techno etc and used to go to the Thunderdome and then, for a few years, the Orbit in Morley. I liked some of the hardcore stuff but when the breaks split happened I went more in the trancey hard techno direction - Tim Taylor, Hardfloor, Carl Cox etc but never what we now know as 'trance' (yuk, plus I was too old to be a Gatecrasher kid!). Still go clubbing occasionally, my girlfriend has decks and tends to buy stuff like Plump DJs, James Holden etc. Baby on way now so we've definitely calmed it recently!

i was a bit to young to be raving with you at the time, but i used to listen to wahtever tapes i could get afford/get my mits on. i only know the 'hits' by name, but recognise loads of tracks i hear now and again when listening to old tapes or cds.


rave was ace, but since then i became a house fan. deep, vocal, us garage, tech...



as for clubs, i rarely go to any (decent) ones and never did do. just loved the music and pissing around by mixing the tunes in my bedroom (or in a few pubs etc)

I was a bit young too, but I was well into anything on XL in 1991. Funny someone mentioned the breaks split: I went the other way, getting my first decks in 96 when jungle/drum & bass was really taking off. I couldn't stand the happy hardcore side of things - not my cup of tea at all. Not enough of The Funk therein

Best 'rave' night ever, PSV Club, Hulme, Manchester (once Factory's club as seen in 24 Hr Party People) - dancing full on in heavy hoodies sweating like bas**rds and not really cooled by a blob of Vicks up the nostrils - "I'm the one and only dominator!". Mental (etc)
