I’m compiling a list. A Dj’s list. The ultimate Pride tune. Ten of the beauties. I’m contacting every DJing soul I can think of who will be doing their thing over Brighton Pride weekend; be it house, indie, r’n’b, dubstep, grime, tech, disco or electronica and asking them to name one tune. The tune. The one that delivers goosebumps, the one that makes you grin … Continue reading My ultimate Pride tune – an endless joy
Well here we go, non-stop hot summer days and steamy summer nights. And before you worry we’ve swallowed a Grease DVD, don’t fret, we’re just a little over excited. The thing us Brits call summer is finally here, beach days and lazy garden days, house parties and festivals, gigs and love. ‘Till autumn comes calling. First up we still can’t get enough of ‘Horse Meat … Continue reading Wildblood + Queenie’s Gscene July Wonders – Jackathon, Lee Curtiss, CJ Mackintosh, Tobias, Vitalik, Tensnake, Shapeshifters + Horse Meat Disco
What makes your DJ tick? What tunes did those headphone-wearing honeys listen to way back when? Here at Gscene we thought it was time to find out. Hence the island. No palm trees, just decent tunes. And this months disco darling? The very lovely Alex Baker. Eurythmics ‘Sweet Dreams’ RCA Annie Lennox’s tireless work for HIV/AIDS charities makes her a living legend and this is … Continue reading Gscene Desert Island Disco July 2011 – DJ Alex Baker Gaydar Radio
There’s something beautiful about the simple grooves of tech house we can’t stay away from. Electronica of the sublime kind, it grabs you where it should do come 7am. Loops and bleeps and beats. Just how we like it. After several weeks of clubbing on the other side of the tracks and enjoying the sublime beats of Maxxi Soundsystem’s Sam Watts, the delights of Go … Continue reading Wildblood and Queenies Summer Wonder Vol.1: The deep queer tech house one
This Friday and Queenie and I will be filling our boots with tunes (not the carboot with wellies!) and heading to Headcorn Aerodrome in Kent for GOGO Festival. A weekend like no other awaits us as we get to play the tunes we love to lots of hot ladies. (And this is my day job?) We’re dead les-chuffed to have been invited and with a … Continue reading GOGO Festival June 17-20th – DJing with The Freemasons, Lady Bex, Sandra D and Lil Jo
Okay so those of you who know Wildblood know I like my tech flavoured disco house. And you know I like my vinyl. And you must know I had a ball last time I saw Tensnake live. Well its as if all my house dreams have come true this month as the German genius releases ‘Live +’, a glorious and seriously limited vinyl edition that’s … Continue reading Tensnake ‘Live +’ and free 60 minute download
A guy with a big hat once sung of seven sunny days in June. We’re banking on thirty as there’s so much decent music this month we’re going to need every moment. First up is the summer beckoning beats of ‘Defected In The House Ibiza ’11 Mixed by Simon Dunmore’. Quality forward looking house music with a party heart. It’s making our summer days. As … Continue reading Wildblood and Queenie’s June Wonders – Defected, Mikalis, Leodoris, Horse Meat Disco, Prok & Fitch and the ever special Bah Samba
Some tunes just can’t be stopped. Tensnake ‘Something About You’ is one such tune. A favourite of mine from his brilliant RA 2009 podcast – its back and, like his limited edition vinyl Live +, its a corker of lovingly crafted genius. Hopefully it heralds a summer of back to the new, old school / nu school house acid vibe as those annoying house tunes … Continue reading Tensnake bites back with ‘Something About You’
I should be writing an essay. I’m nearly there – 3000 outta 5000 but I’m being distracted. Another soul departed, another genius gone and I’m beginning to worry. Is this what getting old is all about? The best shuffling off and you left hitting play to remember. Today it’s Martin Rushent who’s left us. Way too young, way too early and responsible for way too … Continue reading Where the people look good and the music is loud. Remembering Martin Rushent
