Afrika Bambaataa & The Soul Sonic Force - Looking For The Perfect Beat
Hashim - Al-Naafiysh (The Soul)
best Beatles song
The Beatles - You've Got To Hide Your Love
I found the acapella on-line, and listening to Lennon’s delivery gives me shivers… I feel a re-edit coming on!
best concert you ever attended
Trouble Funk
At the Town & Country club London 1986. Drop the f***ing bomb! T-Bone was top boy.
a song guaranteed to make you feel depressed
I don’t do depressed.
record you were looking for the longest
Tullio de Piscopo - Primavera (Stop Bajon)
Easy to get now, but back when only few DJ's had it on the Balearic scene it was the holy grail. I would bunk off school to go hunting for it... A copy finally turned up in a shop in Leighton Buzzard – where Kajagoogoo are from.
a record you fell in love to
Fingers Inc. - Another Side
I fell in love with house music via this record. The Bible.
first record you remember
Mike Oldfield - Portsmouth
When I was about 5 my aunt bought me it, cos I danced about whenever it came on the radio.
the song to be played at your funeral
Labi Siffre - Watch Me
a song that evokes the greatest summer of your life
The Night Writers - Let The Music Use You
1988, nuff said!
your guilty pleasure song
Orson - No Tomorrow
your ultimate heartbreak song
Brian Eno & John Cale - Spinning Away
Heavy heavy stuff. Aching beauty in spades.
perfect anthem for London
Bang The Party - Release Your Body
A «Faith»/«Soulsonic» anthem from one of the unsung heroes of the London scene, Kid Batchelor. London loves House music forevah!
your party anthem
Manu Dibango - Big Blow
D'llegance - Chanson D'llegance (Disconet Remix)
Manu Dibango: Not an obvious choice but after 20 years of Djing, this does it every time! And Chanson D’llegance (Disconet Remix): Eleven minutes of super disco glamour, makes me want to run to the nearest night club.
first record you bought
Adam & The Ants - Antmusic
a song that reminds your friends of you
Rafoot - Only Love Can Break Your Heart
The other dubbed out version that pre-dates the Saint Etienne cover. A fave at the «Faith» parties.
best soundtrack ever
The Life Aquatic
your sunday morning song
Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band - My Head Is My Only House Unless It Rains
Music for dancing with my baby daughter. She already digs Jon Martyn and Penguin Cafe Orchestra. And is a lot cooler than I will ever be.
a song you wish you'd written yourself
Gina X Performance - Kaddish
This is the perfect oddball dance track. Super sophisticated and atmospheric. A Balearic blueprint - very Alfredo.
Beverley Knight
you sit in a plane? Aretha Franklin - I Never Loved A Man The Way I Love Yo...
are finally back. After their very promising debut they took some time to come back with an album that finally shows the full potential of what Johnny Jewel & co is capable of. Where «In The City» left off ...
