The Don's On

[Amos_Keato]

I have no idea how long it's been going on - I'm possibly the last one to know...

but John Peel is now on 3 nights a week.

Tuesdays, Wednesdays & Thursdays, 10pm till 12.

Hope that's right anyway. I've lost the ability to remember stuff.

and the...........................forgot what I was gonna say :emb:

[woody]

[Amos_Keato]

"Lottery Winners On Acid" yup yup !

Didn't like it.....but understood it - it was about being really in love, right ?

[ad_rewind]

Can't bear Peel ... There's something about his voice that annoys the shit outa me ...

And though he does tend to chuck in some decent tunes; the odd-ball indie/rock shite he also plays ("And here's the new one from Depressive Slipper Vegetation") just make me wanna turn the radio/stereo off with my foot ...

:(

I dunno if that's a blag either but I'm pretty sure he doesn't mix - what I do know is Xample posted a playlist from a John Peel "Fabric Live" CD not so long ago.

I heard a quote from Peel saying he loves playing music that people hate ....... hence the reason that he has played and would play things like happy hardcore tracks.

[Amos_Keato]

You mean like the Bee Gees sampling (?) "Hold me now" by DJ Kaos ??

Nowt wrong with happy hardcore man !

Erm...well, at least there wasn't up until about 97 when I lost interest due to all the needlessly soppy vocals.

I also believe in playing stuff that grates people - at least it provokes an emotional response - unlike playing pap like that 'Wednesday' (bad co. ?) tune which just leaves me flat. bored and gazing around the room.

Is happy hardcore still going ? or is it just hard house now ?

For what it's worth, I always hated Vibes, Hixxy, Dougal, Vinyl Groover etc but a bit of Ramos, Christian & M.C. Cyanide, Sy.....and above all - Brisk & Robbie Dee used to send me squirly.

M.C. Natz "I need your lovin.....like the sunshine."

Robbie Dee "YOU NEED SOME FUCKIN' ALCOHOL MATE !!"

[PAEBAC]

"I also believe in playing stuff that grates people - at least it provokes an emotional response "

yeh thats exactly the point he was making but I just couldnt remember the right kind of words ! hehe

So now it looks like I'm copying :emb:
