Yeah, I primarily play āHardgrooveā and āJackinā Technoā¦basically Techno that sounds like fast (138-142bpm) House Music.
When not playing Techno, I love playing 'ish like thisā¦

Yeah I like stuff like this with a funky drum beat but then I am from the old school hip hop and funk times.

Then again, I also love DnB, Breaks, UKGarage, Deep Dubstep, Future Garage, Juke/Footworkā¦Iām nearly 47, so I was there when so many dope genres sprung up. I have a bit of everything in my library (digital & vinyl), and thoroughly enjoy playing it all. But I primarily focus on Techno and House these days.

Iām 10 years older and soul, funk and Jazz Funk have been with all the way and thats why I love the funky house stuff now as its got elements of all of my favourite types of music. I have a 16 year old daughter that loves Earth Wind & Fire, Luther Vandross and some of the funky house stuff I listen to which makes me really happy as a dad š¶š

Same here man, we used to call it āfunky technoā back in the day and DJs like Trevor Rockliffe and Fergie would smash it out. Dave Clarke - The Compass, Ben Sims etc.
Iāve been loving this for the last couple of years.

He isnāt around any more but he is the main reason Iām into music so heavily Jay. He sat me down at 10yrs old and let me watch Blues Brothers:) Iād already been collecting records for 3 years by then (Michael Jackson - Bad being the first 12ā I owned)ā¦ he had everything from Gladys Knight to The Eagles, then the Stones, Animals, Kinks etc. Pretty much what I grew up on.
Iām 42 now so was on the periphery of the early rave scene as a kid, then nights out started in the Ministry of Sound annual 2 era so it was all Morales and Van Helden etc.

You heard the Trevor Rockiffe mix of Rhythm Masters - the Underground? Thatās a proper banging techno disco mix.

Really sorry to hear heās not around mate but how cool was he to sit you down to watch the blues brothers, what a classic film with a brilliant soundtrack. We had a mixture of Rock n Roll, Motown and pop in my house growing up, music was always playing in the background.

No bother Jay, was a long time ago so mainly just happy with the memories of all the good times spent at music gigs etc.
The blues brothers man, must have seen it 30 times now, was a massive Aretha and Ray Davis fan as a young kid cos of that film šŗš½

Right, time to add some more favourite tracks of mine.
This first one is an old banger from the Empire in Middlesbrough, when ātek owesā as we call it up North was properā¦ this got the dance floor up.
[ ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=djWTDaA0pOg)
Another banger from that tech/prog eraā¦ not as underground but massive nonetheless.
[ ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZWGvBgC9b5w)
No words for this, Quantic Soul Orchestra sample, I reckon I have 20 versions of this trackā¦ this one hits.
[ ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vxwVhSClB74)
Some poppy cheese now, but dont ya just love it. Hammered this for far too long.
[ ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQJ4mi-f7eI)
this one is favourite DJās being remixed by favourite DJ, stunning results. The story about her vocal being stashed in a cupboard for years is mental. Mastersā¦Atā¦Work.
[ ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rG9GO3IzlEA)
This next one, I reckon itās in my top 3 dance tracks ever. Its probably meaningless to many people but I listen to it and I think it just represents everything I love about house, and I also think its a track you could play someone if they asked you to portray Ibizaā¦ just put this on and walk off. What I call āproper owseā
