Dance 88/89 Sankeys

[supermfc]

Well it was the year that gave us "Two Hearts"by Phil Collins. .

Well say no more!

What is it about the year 89??

good question...

especially when you consider

Chicago (ware)'house' music started 84/85
'Acid House' and Ibiza (clubbing as we know it) started 87/88

My wife has spent all her summers in ibiza since she was a child,and she had her best clubbing experiences this summers(87-89),and with me during the years 94-96....
And when she's talking about 89,you can see a very special light in her eyes...

If i can throw this in there on a completely selfish level (and the fact the meet me forum is empty) i am a 40 yr old travelling on my own for a fortnight (hall pass) and looking for like minded individuals to have a good chat/dance with.. msg me if youre arround between 7th-20th august!

I am a bit cynical about this night (cos I've been to a few too many Back to '89 style nights in London) but I will concede that Bushwacka still has his finger on the pulse (as ElMooreo said) and does select/mix it up very well (PROOF HERE > https://soundcloud.com/justbebushwacka/live-at-shoom-december-2012

If he gets to call the shots and is allowed to programme the music it may be very good and I will freely eat my words.

However...

there's at least one 'legend' on the summer lineup though on there (who I won't name..) who I have met and is just a middle aged bloated cokehead - booked purely on his reputation 30 years ago - who I guarantee you will just trainwreck his way through his collection of tesco classics CDs like an uncle at a wedding

Out of order mate, Bob Sinclair is not on the gear.......

Some club in Manchester 1989

Some club in Manchester 1989

It's either that or a still from Night of the Living Dead.

Sounds very exciting despite me being one and two years old respectively in those years.

Hopefully will knock spots off your Ushuiaias in terms of atmosphere, ego and clientele.

good things being said about the opening on RA

 

[Shady South American]

that is a good review. i would probably go mental if I heard that Orb track and some of the less obvious ones.

I still have doubts over whether I could personally sustain an entire night of nostalgia though, which is why I'm hesitating

 

[elmooreo]

Big fan of Carlos Hawthorn.
Think Bushwacka and Mr C will be the ones to watch here. Hopefully Rampling will pick up

Exactly how I feel about this night.

 

[craig72]

Just get shot of Rampling and his sad old puss...and you'll have a good night..

 

[soha]

Buswacka is quality dj, don't like how he tries to dj under the alias 'just be' now though. I wish I was in ibiza for a Wednesday I would definitely go to thus night.

Rampling was asked the question recently if he would be playing old classics or modern day stuff at a gig he was doing in the UK. He said it would be modern as older crowd don't want to hear the classics every time they venture out!

A night badged as taking you back to the old school and Rampling turns up with a Macbook & plays two tracks from the start of 2016...yes that's what we all came to hear!

Take him off the line up and it will probably be a decent night.

If I go to this night I hope it isn't tunes 'exclusive' to the years 88'89, as shady South American mentioned, I don't think I could handle that all night. If they mix it up with some classics from the 90s right through that would work much better for me looking at it from a purely selfish point of view.
