personal favourites

I've added a new thread with some of my favourite sets (and repeatively requested stuff), it's on your right under "Personal favourites". Currently it features the Café d'Anvers 1992 set/Mo & Benoelie at Fuse 1995/and a ravy set recorded at club Chéops in 1994 ... i'll be adding the Club 55 1991-set very soon.

harder, better, faster, stronger

The past few months this track has been totally in the picture again (thanks Kanye), it seems to get better everytime i hear it.

paul van dyk

It's been a while since i posted something for the legendary clubbers, so if you're not into techno, here's your chance to grab something different.
The man with the tie is Paul van Dyk, voted nr.1 dj in the world several times (although nowadays the Dutch alliance is taking over) and you could say he's one of the trance-godfathers.
In 1993 Paul mixed the first edition of X-Mix, an excellent combination of music and graphics (released on cd, vinyl, vhs, dvd ... the vinyls are indisposible in any collection!!).
In 1994 he released his breakthrough-single "Emergency", followed by other successes like For an angel and My World.

In 1998 he made his appearance in Fuse on a friday-night for a trance-special and that was the only time i saw him perform.

god is a dj ... here's some proof

old flyers

Today and old box packed with flyers left the attic.
I'm thinking of posting some stuff.
Every once in a while.
If i find the time.
First post.
10days.
First edition.
Red Tape Building.
I was there on the 21st.
Brings back some memories.
Mind the "of techno" in the title.
Funny, the line-up is more diverse than nowadays.

monika (also into elekronika ) kruse

If you haven't had enough of my techno-shares, here's another goodie.
In my memory Monika Kruse was one of the first shejays to make it abroad, alongside 100% Isis (still the best looking girl in the scene) and K. Hand (my first ever Fuse-experience).
68 minutes of earcandy, recorded in '99, file under "techno with balls".

luke slater

Slater ... again! Enjoy this energetic set, split in 2 (about 74 minutes each), digital recording, but above all: very nice tunes.

respect to romain bno

My last Respect-post has been a while so here's another goodie.
A set recorded in the year 2000 at Fuse, filled with warm house and lots of classics by Jakatta, X-Press 2, Azzido da Bass, Martin Solveig ... yep, it's a "party-set".

Behind the decks: Romain BNO, one of the Respect-residents who at the same time had a residency at Queen-Paris, together with Dimitri from Paris and Ivan Smagghe (i'll post one of his sets later).
The best 74 minutes you'll spend this week :)

Edit: this is not the same set i posted a few months ago, consider this "part1", as the other set was recorded later that evening.

and now ... something completely different

Classic stuff ... reminds me of the Danielle Baldelli dj-set a few weeks ago at Make-Up Club.

johannes heil

It's been a while since my last post, but don't worry, there's still plenty of stuff to spread ;)
Up for grabz is an hour of Johannes Heil, followed by an additional 10 minutes by a Fuse-resident. I think it's a live-set, but i'm not 100% sure (99%). Besides some nice techno-tracks there's also some downtempo stuff in the set, as Johannes is a very broadminded producer.
I would be lying to say that i've been following his career throughout the years, but the first time i remarked him was when he released "Paranoid Dancer" ... his contrubution to techno-history, an absolute classic!
