Emergency broadcast.

Me and @cosmicniles.bsky.social are trying to piece together a mix we did about 20 years ago. We think it was from Electric Chair. We’ve got one track to ID from around 2005/2006 of The Trammps — My Love It’s Never Been Better. I’ll send you all my edits to anyone who IDs 😀

Vapes should be banned in beer gardens on days like this one. Change my mind.

Morning.

Brilliant club opener, this.

Donna — Justify My Love.

One of those Disco Magic covers from when they were reworking Madonna records.

Pretty dubious whether they went to Madge or Kravitz for clearance on this one too, but it still sounds great drifting in early doors.

Another one for the 10 past 10 record collectors.

Vanilla’s — Keep on Runnin’

Quality #Balearic chugger with some almost definitely uncleared Stevie bits over in the breaks. Perfect early doors gear.

One for the 10 past 10 records stack…

F. Zappalà feat. S. 1000 HD — I Need You (Hippy Sound)

One of those records you’d walk into the club to and just know it was going to be a good night.

Gone down a proper 10 past 10 rabbit hole… just played this from ’92. One of those records that could flip the moment before the Italo piano
screamers dropped.

Yep, loads of stuff like this in the boxes.

And yep, that’s a ‘get the badge in’ moment.

Early R&S slipmats still going in 2025, 30+ years in.

@kerryjeanlister.bsky.social’s flyer post sent me rummaging… found another box of old posters and flyers.

Who’s up for some quality 10k rig and lasers artwork?

@balearica.bsky.social is on pause for a bit. It fully went rogue and started posting the same tune on repeat and proper anti-rave behaviour.

Switched it off for now, it’ll be back when it’s behaving.

Love this. New one to me 🤝

Massive early 90s Balearic take on Sade — Paradise.

Always been up there in my all-time 10 past 10 records.

That point in the night where it’s loose, a bit wobbly, and this just floats in perfectly.

Me & @cosmicniles.bsky.social used to say House music runs on a 10/20 year cycle. The stuff we played at Sankeys or Casa that everyone asked IDs for was usually mid 90s. Got me thinking about those ace edits everyone bought from Piccadilly Records in the 2000s. Surely ripe for air time?

Went down a record rack rabbit hole this afternoon down to this track. I used to love following it with this — I miss proper “10 past 10” records.

@kerryjeanlister.bsky.social inspired a rifle through the flyer box. Complete with pressed Blu-tack corners.

So the @balearica.bsky.social dashboard was on the money. Let’s see how the next few hours go 😧

Dining out on @acidgrandads.bsky.social coloured vinyl selections; I’m going to drop this one in. Apparently only 500 were pressed? I have two. One record is in three pieces. 🫠 Also the best use of a Donna Summer sample?

I don’t who used the sample first. Blackwood or SGH?

Built a dashboard for @balearica.bsky.social to keep tabs on what’s it’s up to. Let’s see how well this goes 😀
