Facebook’s bullying me again but thankfully this time I have something to post about so I don’t have to resort to mortifying my DJ heroes.
1&2: Firstly, here’s a reminder I got this morning of how fucking good our parties in the Big Joint were. Four years ago @rahaanrah !! I honestly think I left a bit of my heart in that room. And one day I’m going back to get it!
3: Also, and actually more importantly, MDDGOLD013 is one step closer. I reckon I’ll have test presses next week at some point so watch this space.
4: And finally.. Good news everyone! All future MDD Gold 45s will have their very own house bags.
Any disco nerds fancy an "MDD Gold" T shirt? I'm getting one so could order a short run. Proper limited - ten only. No fancy colours - black or white with gold logo.
Facebook is bullying me into posting more stuff but sadly I don't have anything to spam about just now. I'm feart the algorithm will fall out with me if I don't comply so here's a tale that may seem totally random, but it's something I think about almost every time I release a record..
Back when I was a wee guy we all used to go to "Shotts". Fuck knows why we called it Shotts because we didn't actually go to Shotts. Where we went was Allanton. But literally nobody called it that.
Anyway, I digress. We went dancing to northern soul and Shotts at that time was by far the best place in the world to do that. Absolutely no question. Ask anyone.
The music was perfect, the characters that played the music were kind of mental - but in a good way, the guests were phenomenal. You had your Colin Law getting the place going nuts to £1000 Detroit rarities at peak time, you had the likes of the Walls bros, the Jim Tennant and the wonderful soul who was Mark Linton just holding it the fuck down. You had everything from obscure 60s newies to out and out classics. (There was even a wee bit of disco that they didn't call disco via Tom Jackson 😂) And the record bar was ooft fuck me bloody hell.
But..
Big news. Our track “Come Back Home” @alkent has just been synced in the latest series of @hacks . You can find it on the album Secret Sounds, out now on BBE Music. Go check it out: bbemusic.com/product/secret-sounds
In the meantime.. this was indeed a headfuck so hopefully it was worth it. I gave up on the straw poll and just put a load of colours on bandcamp.. Link@in bio
