Sometimes i have the impression dj's used to play more crowpleasers back in the days (for me that's "the nineties"). Or is this a false impression and did the unknown tracks become classics as time passed by?
A question worth thinking about!
Anyhow, lots of classics in the sets underneath: Arkest Blaze, Women Beat Their Men, Bassline and Goodlife (his own stuff), the inevitable French Kiss, ... but also plenty of forgotten tracks and things to discover.
I'm back after a 2-weeks stop in France (Provence & Corsica), which were both very nice ... but that's probably not what you're interested in.
So here goes: underneath's a link to a 2 hour set by Kevin Saunderson, 1/3th of the Belleville Three. I had the pleasure of hearing him spin already a few times (Teknoville a.o.), but the past few years i often have the impression he plays to hard (or i'm getting to old). Luckily this Fuse-set is rather housy, and filled with a fair amount of unknown tracks + some classics near the end of the set. Enjoy!
Does anybody remember this radio show? Studio Brussel's first serious approach towards electronic music and an inspiration to many djs (but probably not 2manydjs?)
Every now and then (=approx. once a year) these guys threw a party, and did a live-broadcast. Lucky were those who could join the party and have someone taping it for them at home (otherwise they would have nothing to post in their blogs 9 years later).
This is a tape rip from their annual at the Vooruit venue (Ghent), line-up that night:
Main room: Derrick May, Juan Atkins (if I remember well, he had to cancel), Moody (Belgian pride, doing a very nice warming-up) and Kevin Saunderson.
Ball room: Blake Baxter and Cari Lekebusch.
A night to remember for several reasons: Saunderson doing a great set and tearing the roof off, May (just the fact that he actually shows up is memorable) having technical problems and throwing away his headphones (no kidding, temper temper).
I'd have to check if I have any other Teknoville-tapes (somewhere out there ... Cherry Moon? Fuse?). This is a 90 minute recording of Kevin Saunderson's set.
