The Blogs First Birthday and Trades 21st Birthday.

Here is a very special treat to celebrate Trades 21st birthday.  Its a 28 mix dedicated to all things Trade.  Can you believe someone did such a long mix like this?

I posted this on the blog ages ago.  But as I'm away this weekend I thought I would be a bit lazy and repost it.

The mix sort of bypasses the Alan Thompson and Malcolm Duffy side of things, going straight into Steven Thomas / Tony De Vit etc territory.

Anyway just click on the link and download.

It is also the first birthday of me starting this blog.  It seems to have become very popular all round the world.  So please keep looking at it.  Also, feel free to make a donation towards the upkeep of the blog and the future club night which will be happening soon.

Enjoy thanks to everyone who has looked at the site and given feedback and positive words.

Tracklisting is in the Trade page on the left.

DJ Rosco Interview Part 2.

Which were your favorite clubs to go for fun?

Trade, Gatecrasher, Sundissential and Rise & Trash at the Leadmill, Sheffield.

To tell the truth nothing has really compared to Trade. The intensity of the place, the masculinity and the energy of the Trade sound and the people made it the best dance floor I’ve ever experienced or played to.

In some ways Trade felt like the last party on earth. They way it would keep on going at full speed right into the afternoon and how everyone, including the DJ’s, gave it their all. I think people overlook this and have forgotten about the challenges that the early Trade babies went through to give us the hedonistic playground that we all enjoy. I guess this might be the reason why gay club land is so disposable these days as no one has had to work to earn it and no one really cares.

One theory I have is that the AIDS scenario in the late 80’s and early 90’s pressurized and distorted the gay scene’s creative output, which I feel had a part to play in how we got to the harder, powerful, darker sounds that hear in Trade. The whole atmosphere of the disease was dark and the boundaries that the public raised in fear of it created a shadow. The freedom that people felt when being able to mix together without worry in a club without prejudice was rare. Limits were being pushed as people wanted to go out with the biggest bang possible. They simply didn’t care about tomorrow, which was reflected in the music.

Everyone had a cumulative input in having the fiercest, hardest, fastest, most intense party on earth. If there was ever a time for living for the moment it was Trade and Trade will always stand for this in my eyes.

The people who go out on the gay scene now as they are getting severely short-changed in comparison. Have you been to Vauxhall recently? The corporations have severely taken over. The music is soulless and it sounds like a musical version of painting by numbers – zero tracks stand out.

The décor is cheap, the sound systems sound worse than ever and the vibe is so flat and mundane. Overall it’s all become a one-dimensional money making venture. Something needs to change.

Worst club ever played at?

I was on a tour in Japan with DJ Ziad (who also used to be a Trade resident) and went to an after hours club in Fukuoka after playing at Club OD as we were still up for a party after playing together for 6hrs.

We got in and we were the only Western people in there and the atmosphere was awful, the dance floor was empty and people were sitting around the sides of the room just watching this guy play terrible music!

It was 8am and almost everyone was in a separate room where the music wasn’t playing. After another 30 mins of very bad music on what sounded like a very high pitched ear bleeding system, Ziad and I took the initiative and took over the decks. The DJ before was off his nut and had the treble on full throughout the whole of his set! We quickly rectified this did a back to back set for a couple of hours and got people dancing! I guess this is what you could call a resurrection set!

How did you become a DJ? How did the Trade residency come about?

My first love of music came from my Dad’s records. He was resident DJ at the Playboy Club in London in the 70’s and I used to listen to his soul and disco albums from an early age. He had a very good collection!

Back in the 90’s you couldn’t get the records that you heard in clubs on any other format than vinyl, apart from on CD compilations (which only had a selection of what I wanted) so when I was 14 I saved up my pocket money, washed cars and then bought decks and purchased the vinyl.

After messing around for a couple of years I started making tapes for my friends, which went down very well. One of the got me a gig at Sundissential and several clubs up north. then I was a flyer boy for Trade in Ibiza when I was 18 and I gave a tape to the glorious Laurence Malice who gave me my first gig for Trade in Ireland. I tore the roof off the place and Laurence offered me the residency straight after.

Rosco Interview part 1.

This month Trade (The Mothership) celebrates being 21 years young. Therefore pretty much most of this month has been dedicated to all things Trade.

The highlight for me has been getting this amazing interview from Rosco. He has been a Trade resident for about ten years now.

Anyway I hope you enjoy the interview and the rest of this Trade month.

The videos being posted will be from Roscos favourite tunes list.

Rosco Blog Questions Part 1.

Which clubs did you play at?

I was resident at:

Trade London,

Trade Paris,

Trade Ibiza,

Trade LA,

Manumission,

Space.

And I played the following:

Trade Ireland,

The Gallery at Turnmills,

Sundissential,

Godskitchen,

Club OD Japan

…plus many others.

(I didn’t have a weekend off for over four years when I was in the thick of it!)

Do you still play out now? if so where?

Yes. Only at Trade.

What is the Trade sound to you?

The Trade sound has progressed from House, Techno and Belgian New Beat through Tribal, Trance and Hard House with a certain fierceness, masculinity and sexuality throughout.

Every DJ played their tracks with a spirit and soul that was unequalled. The musical progression of the night caused a blending of the genres as the BPM’s increased through their sets. The night always acclimatized to a peak, which was conquered elegantly by the next DJ. For me the Trade sound has a very no nonsense rhetoric which always had an attitude.

There has always been a techno influence as Trade originally started as a techno club, which I think is one of the clubs greatest traits as techno is a constantly progressive universal limitless genre, which can be adapted and mutated to fit any dance floor, as it was at Trade throughout the duration.

The immaculately put together line up by Laurence Malice made a very well thought out progression in the music from start to finish, which in turn caused a massive blending of the genres. I would never say that Trade was a hard house club as it’s not. Every night there were many styles being played, from house to techno and tribal to trance. All the Trade compilations reinforce this as there was always different styles of music on each one; Malcolm blending tough underground US house and tribal, Steve Thomas beautifully combining techno and hard house and Tony De Vit who took it to another level.

Tony did have a huge impact on the Trade sound, which we have to give serious credit to. I find some of his tracks had a classical music element to it, which I love. Examples of this are the highly touching ‘The Dawn’ and his gripping remix of ‘Age Of Love’ which in my mind seems parallel to Amadeus Mozart’s ‘Requiem’ as it was the last movement that Mozart composed before his life ended early than expected - just like Tony’s.

The earlier housier part of the Trade sound often get’s overlooked. The sets that Malcolm, The Sharp Boys and Smokin Jo played were seriously sexual and soulful yet pumping. I would like to put this side of the Trade sound back on the map as it deserves much more attention.

Nathans Tribute To Alfredo Part 4.

Well its chill out time again on the blog.  Today I'm continuing with the amazing tributes to DJ Alfredo.  Its part 4 this week.


As usual I'm not posting the track listing as I think these are the types of mixes its a shame to know the track listing in advance.


Ive been listening to these mixes a lot in my car recently, and they really are good.  Such a wide selection of genres.  Pure Balearic bliss.

Sit back and enjoy.

Ian M Live @ Trade 1990s.

I have a real corker here today.  A rare live mix from Ian M live at Trade.  Not sure which year, but it will have been some time in the mid to late 90s I think.


This mix is not for the faint hearted.  Its full on banging techy house from probably the hardest DJ ever to grace the Trade DJ booth.  Not a bounce in sight.


Just imagine the madness on the Turnmills dance floor during this set.


Get up and dance.


Enjoy.
