This Friday just gone I found myself at the Big Beat Reunion in London's lovely but shady Jammm in Brixton, one of my old stomping grounds. I'm always slight wrong-footed by South London ... even though I know it so well, it has an intensity about it that you seldom find North of the river with layer on layer of humanity battling for survival space. As an example, the cab ride back to the hotel afterwards was full of banter & was strangely worth the £22 I was knowingly being *fleeced* for a four mile ride.
To say the gig was an unusual one for me to take would be understatement. I've never before agreed to do an old skool / big beat set, and despite the huge time-drain of 3 full days of preparation, it was actually a great - re-education sifting through the piles of old vinyl. Each banger I unearthed was greeted like a long lost friend, even to the point of 'knowing smiles' accompanying the recall of each bit of vinyl's unique quirks. Trying to mix these rough & ready slices of history together was a whole new ballgame & my plan to journey from 107 - 137 bpm seemed like a good idea in principal, but in practice it was a wild beast of a ride, and one that was hard to tame for much of the time.
Here is the set in all it's rough glory. Thanks to the Noise crew for snagging a most unexpected recording. Grab it quickly - not sure how long I want this one up here for!

People are always going to rave about your more characteristic sets, but this is my favorite. Big beat is big. And personal. And you molded/melded this with mastery. Cheers for the anecdotal preface; only adds to the feel and feeling.

You can just tell this is the Chemical Brothers from 94... sounds very similar to Loops Of Fury. Back when the beats did a lot of the talking in a track rather than just sawtootth bass, wobbles and screechy noise

Seriously an awesome set. It's going to make me dig through my vinyl and CD's and create an old school Big Beat crate on my Serato. I've listened to it about 4 times in the last two days. Really brings back the memories.
