Review: Altered State – The Story of Ecstasy Culture and Acid House – by Matthew Collin
I’ve already read a Matthew Collin book – This is Serbia Calling – so I was chuffed when I stumbled upon this work, a history of UK dance music culture. As a DJ and Promoter for 24 years I’m quite aware of a lot of the history of dance music in the UK. This book,… Continue reading

Wez G – Head Alchemy (DJ Set 65)
I felt like a bit of a change, a bit of an up-tempo feel to the mix to warm those toes in the murky winter weather… I’d recently put together a nice acid house feeling dub for a Brazilian vocalist to work on and wanted to fit it into the mix… It is Hacienda style… Continue reading

Wez G – Little Disco Biscuit (DJ Set 47)
