Party out or Kitchen Disco!

Kitchen Disco.....the only place you can truly let loose!! 🤣 I still love nothing more than having a little kitchen rave to Radio 1's Dance Anthems on a Friday and Saturday night!

Talk us through your mixtape - What’s each track / artist and why its on your Mixtape.

Track 1 Your Love - Prodigy.

I’m a rave junkie and I make no excuses! This tune literally does make the hairs on the back of my neck stand up to this day!

Track 2 Far out by Sonz of a Loop da Loop Era

Just the happiest of all tunes! My first experience of a rave was an illegal travellers one in Oxford....just a big old marquee in the middle of a field. I was hooked after that first experience and used to travel far and wide going to illegal and organised ones. Remember Castle Morton.....I was there!

Track 3 Pennies from Heaven - Inner City

I did eventually hang up my raving whistle and I started going to clubs. Lakota in Bristol was my local but I regularly used to travel to Bond's in Birmingham for Miss Moneypenny's nights.

Track 4 Don’t Go - The Awesome 3

It’s still current! 🙌 A lot of these tunes remind me of a summer well spent in Ibiza (1994)

Track 5 You girls look so sexy - Nush

The next few tracks should always be dance too like nobody is watching you!

Track 6 Passion - Gat Decor

More of the same!

Track 7 Waterfall - Atlantic Ocean

More of the same!

Track 8 The Real Thing - U2

This tune holds such memories for me......dancing on the terrace at Space in Ibiza with the planes going over on a Sunday morning.

Track 9 Dream Lover - Mariah Carey

Same again with this one!

Track 10 Rapture - Blondie

Debbie Harry is such an icon. A heart of glass might of been my first record purchase but this tune was by far Blondie’s best record in my humble opinion. Another tune that gives me goosebumps!
