I've had interest in music as long as i can remember. As a 7 year old i was recording music fragments from the radio on tape, trying to make a mix from it (the cliché!) My dad had a huge collection of 70s records so i was often scratching with one of his Steely Dan LPs, consequently destroying the needle. As soon as i got my very first turntable, i started buying records myself.

I bought my very first 12" in 1986 and from there on music like dance, hiphouse and hiphop. I was a big fan of De La Soul (89-90) back then because of their pioneer ways of using samples. (i have an autographed 3 Feet High And Rising picture disc which i treasure :)

In 1990, i got my first set of tables and a mixer and i witnessed the house scene emerge around me. Then in 1991 i went to my first rave - Rave The City I and after Rave The City II i was completely hooked.

Born in The Hague so to me radio station Radio Stad Den Haag and its 2 records stores have been a major influence. I could be found daily in the recordshop where Dark Raver and Gizmo used to work, checking out the latest releases. This is the time i got the majority of my records, in 1993- 1997, all hardcore. Doesn't have my interest anymore unfortunately.

I had some serious efforts in breaking through as a DJ. I made it flawlessly to the 1993 House DJ finals in Zoetermeer, but under the eye of the jury (consisting out of my heroes back then : Dano, Gizmo, Buzz Fuzz, Prophet, Dark Raver, DJ Paul, Charly Lownoise, Mental Theo and DJ Rob) i managed to fuck it up in a way that still haunts me today..just don't ask :(

Today, i still mix for fun on my Denon dn-x1500 or the PC, and i'm collecting gems that i've simply never found, missed or were unaware of in 1990 - 1993. I like oldskool -techno -uk -rave -deephouse -garage -hiphop and acapellas. Favorite producers: Reese..Orlando Voorn..etc

I've also produced several (hardcore)tracks for my modgroup UCP (1996 - 2000), on an independent basis. They can be found here

Source, The (7) Featuring Candi Staton - You Got The Love - 12-Oct-06 07:28 AM
You won't find the full clean acapella of "You Got The Love" because it was never released by John Truelove, apart from some small fragments. But this record is as close as it gets. The House-a-Pella contains the 5 minute unedited vocals with only a snap in the beginning and later on just minor beats, which make this record great for mixing. It goes with nearly everything; from Drum & Bass to Funky House to Seventies rock. A must have for any DJ!

Twin Hype - For Those Who Like To Groove - 19-Jun-06 05:30 AM
When sometimes asked about my all time favourite record, this one (the Club Groove version) will immediately come to my mind. Twin rappers Lennis and Glennis Brown, (there must have been a third one called Dennis, making them a triplet;) were very young, probably 15 or 16 years old when this record came out. Yet it's a very mature track, in my opinion one of the finest combinations of house and rap, like maybe only hiphouse daddy Fast Eddie could make. Build ups, pumping beats and basslines, sharp breaks, a song that shouts "get your ass on the dancefloor"
Classic lines like "Jack / 89's a year / house music is in your ear", a very subtle 303, this track has it all. A legendary early 90s dutch house radio show was named after this very song. A timeless classic that i will play forever.

Unknown Artist - Untitled - 10-May-06 05:34 AM
Became famous as "The Song With The Church Bells", the set-opener in DJ Buzz Fuzz' mix in the legendary radio show "For Those Who Like To Groove" that aired in Holland in 1991-1992. Every week a known DJ attended the show to mix for an hour. Most people in the early dutch house scene listened to this saturday evening show and taped it on cassette. Hence, this record became highly sought after.

Because the label contains no information the true identity remained a mystery, untill it was finally ID'ed here on discogs in 2005, 14 years after it was released!

It's possibly made by french techno producer Gregory Dewindt who was, at that time, responsible for the majority of the Asmodee Productions releases. Although the track itself is not very special (basically a simple oldskool techno track with a dramatic churchbell melody), it's the nostalgic value, and the fact that it remained unknown for such a long time, that appeals to most people.

Lately, copies start to pop up here and there and oldskool collectors are now finally able to scratch this one off a longtime wantlist.

Liberty City - Some Lovin' - 10-May-06 12:19 AM
Pressed on bad quality vinyl, you're lucky to own a copy that doesn't bump or crackle. Excellent funky vocal track with fat pumping basslines. Been playing it since the day it was released and it has never bored me.

Source, The - You Got The Love - 16-Apr-06 07:05 AM
Candi Staton told in an interview that You Got The Love was originally recorded for a diet video, a film about a man trying to loose weight. It was never supposed to be put on a record. She was completely unaware of the fact that it became a number one hit in the UK in 1991, untill somebody told her.

Because the programme-makers, who also wrote the song, couldn't pay her at the time, they gave her half the publishing and copyright. Thanks to that, royalty cheques came rolling in years later.
