a classic, and still affordable.

Interesting this record. The guy who made it was actually in a rap group in Leeds called Breaking The Illusion so this was quite a radical departure at the time. As far as I know he never made another House record again.

i like the idea of him sitting back, wiping his hands on his pants, and saying āwell, made a perfect house record, no bother in making another oneā and then moving on with his day.

I didnāt know he did a boiler room. Seems against his vibe/thing to do a 90 minute recorded set.
Risque- starlight sounds great at the beginning. Full tracklisting on DJH, I assume.,

imho one of the most criminally overlooked records of the last 50 years. Ashley Beedle on edit duties here.

I heard that on some CD (hotel costes?) years ago before I knew about Idris Muhammad. That long intro is worth it in the end!

5 1/2 hours of Autechre influences from the time of Artificial Intelligence.

Was reminded of that Milan Boiler Room when the John Greek remix came out last year. Genuine question - who else on the DJ circuit would dare to play something like that out now? Would love to hear Eric and Thomas get Rub N Tug back together because it seems up their street, but maybe too late? When H does eventually retire, wondering who will carry the torch for leftfield dancefloor sleaze.

I looked at this a while back. A couple of things strike me dipping into it again. First of all, I remember Pure Imagination being the first track, which seemed pretty brave at the time, the fact that it went on for minutes. But, you know, it would be a way to make a mark, I guess. Now that I realise it was the second track following that great drum workout just seemsā¦I want to say insane, but I suppose this is what he gets paid the big bucks for lol.
Second thing is, Iād forgotten how great that San Juan track is. Picked up a while back on a Nick The Record reco. Love it.

Great mix. This is what itās all about. No show ponying with phones or doing silly dances, just excellent selections put together perfectly.
