Here is a collection of some of the best clubs nights/dj sets of 2008. The list is not in any order.  The list mainly consists Drum n Bass nights or DJ sets but there’s a few other genres in there.  It will hopefully give you some idea on what or who to look out for in 2009!

Enjoy

Amazing tape from the ‘real Hip-Hop’ renaissance (read also ‘emergence of the backpacker’) that happened in the latter half of the 90′s, spearheaded by labels like Rawkus, Stones Throw etc. Some great tracks including a non-album cut from Black Star, and something from Scaramanga’s (aka Sir Menelik) off-the-radar classic ‘Seven Eyes Seven Horns‘.

Fat Lace was a bloody funny fanzine from some moonlighting HHC writers, chock full of anorak-ish old school worship and puerile irreverence (I remember they did a Biggie ‘autopsy’ based on old board game Operation that landed them in some drama).  STOP PRESS: it seems FL are back as a blog.

And excuse the coffee stain on the cover scan; that’s realness right there.

Great old set from the don of deep DnB; ripped from my tape collection.  Some classic tunes like ‘One & Only‘ and ‘Circles‘…my memory’s failing me on the rest of the tracklist though!

A rip of an old tapepack I found, with Messrs, Vega and Gonzales on fine form. Not sure where it was recorded, but the crowd certainly got a treat; lots of their trademark soulful house, a smattering of old NY disco classics, and erm…Stardust.  Anyone fancy filling in the gaps on the t/l?

A lovely unique mix from Blick (the man is a machine with releasing mixes).  This is his first for 2009, and what a way to float in to the year.  Aural soundscpares with crisps breaks make this mix one of favs from Blick.

As the title suggests this is a mix of all PFM’s remixes (on vinyl anyway) i think only “Halcyon Voyage (PFM Remix)” on Logical Progression Level 4 (CD only) is missing.

I think if i ever made a track and got it released then this is the guy who i’d like to do a remix of it.

PFM is a master of beautiful laidback drum & bass atmospherics

One of my favourite artists in DnB, for those who do not know check out Random movements myspace for a heads up.   His unique blend of soul, funk, jazz has pushed him to the top of the game.  Stars in the dark, is still sounding as good when i first heard it on Baileys shows on 1Xtra.  Beautiful stuff.
