DEG NYE

And yes, here's another DEG-tape ...only took me about a year to post something new in this blog:)

Sound-quality isn't 100%, but i'm sure the tracks will make up for that.

The set was recorded from Radio 21 (and includes some comments) at NYE 95-96 => 5.30am till 6.30am, on a night like that i'd say that's peak-time :)

the residents

The dj's i mean, not the band. Here's a 90 minute mix by Pierre & Deg, both residents at Fuse ever since the early days and still bangin' the floor every weekend in 2010 AD. This makes me wonder who else has had such a long residency in 1 club ... the only one i can think of is Marko at La Rocca (dunno if he's a weekly or a monthly resident there nowadays). Anyway, if you can think of someone else, drop it in the "comment"-box.

Pierre & Deg at Fuse - 04.04.98. (peaktime baby!)

KAOS

So here's a little challenge ... i went through my tape-collection last week and picked this set out, put it into my tape-deck and pressed play. I was surprised, not only by the energy but also by the sound quality which had remained very good (maxell xl2 :)).
Only 1 problem: the dj's name wasn't tagged on this tape. So i have the name of the club, party, date and even a flyer (thx to www.atribute2cherrymoon.com) ... time for the experts to have a listen and tell me who's playing (could even be 2 different dj's).
Enjoy this piece of techno, i'll try and edit this post once the panel has decided who's behind the decks :p
Edit: Mr. Lovinlektro says "Deg" :)

Deg

Here's a nice set to end your weekend, start a new week, or look forward to whatever's coming your way. 90 minutes of Deg, the highly respected Fuse-resident.

What to expect? Uhm ... techno? More specific: a bangin' party-set, not the warming-up kinda stuff.

who's warming up?

Time to take a little step into the unknown. I'm posting a mix ... but i'm not sure who's playing.
The thing i like about it is that it was recorded at the very beginning of the night, probably by one of the residents (Deg?).

While most of you know Fuse as a techno-club, early clubbers know you can often enjoy some laid back dubby tunes at 10 o' clock, followed by some lazy house, smooth techno and as time goes by: the stuff people really came for :)

An early night with the unknown dj, somewhere in 1999.


One of te tracks at the beginning of the set is The Orb's "Blue Room", my god how i love that track! While doing some research on youtube i discovered some other Orb footage: here's a little piece of the live-show they did in Vorst Nationaal back in '95, the track is called "Towers of Dub".

Lately i've been posting lots of sets by "guest dj's" at the Fuse-club, a bit unfair towards the resident-dj's, isn't it?
Warming up, trying to keep a vibe, and sometimes (often?) even outclassing the guests ... throughout the years these jocks earned their spot in Belgian nightlife: Pierre, Trish, St-Dic, Deg, T-Quest to name a few.

Deg joined the Fuse-team in 1997 after showing his qualities at AB-Sounds, Mauna Kea, Borsalino, BWP-experiments, Rave Explosion, Network, PK-Studios and even May-Day. Nowadays, he's still part of that same team and usually spins in the main room.
