Thats right, we’ve managed to be late for our maths lesson, and lose a few brain cells due to smoke inhalation. I am, of course, talking about last nights Smoking Behind The Bike Sheds radio session.
Dub to funk to hip hop to hardcore, it was certainly a trip down the proverbial memory lane.
Personally, I’ve got to hold my hands up. The tunes I played last night were of the good quality you would expect, but the sloppy mixing wasnt. I guess I was just having one of those days, so sorry! (I think I’ll probably be put in Blunt Beats detention by the crew!)
Thanks also to Marcus Hurley, and to Doug, for digging out a Hardcore set of his from back in the day (remastered from a C90 tape!)
