Been looking forward to this for ages. I don’t usually buy tickets for anything so far in advance, but tonight is different. We are going to see Clockwork play in East London. They have had radio play on 6 music and have been championed by the likes of Soul Clap and are ushering in this new era of slow house. Its not just slow because we are old, the tempo has changed because its easier to dance to. We had all those big 80s and 90s hits because the budgets were massive, these days, music has moved into the bedroom and smaller places. There is still room for final mastering from the pro’s, but it is still the case that pretty much anyone can grab midi controller, some software and sample away. Ahhh, the 90′s, is it a better musical decade than the 80s? In terms of dance music, we had some defining tunes. Its a decade that keeps coming back. We keep hearing the 808 tom drum, will it ever go away? Occasionally we hear a bit of acid and some vocals. Where are we headed to? Who even invented house? Was it Kelvin Andrews, was it Marshall Jefferson? Was it Kevin Saunderson? Who knows. But the great thing is that we are back there again and we have function 1 rigs to enjoy it on. Cya down the front.
