Johnny Moy...

Zascar

Does anyone remember he had an album out a good new years ago called "Decks, Effects and a whole Lotta Love..."
I used to have it a while ago but lost the CD. Just remembered it and would love to hear it again... Anyone have it?

Is Johnny Moy still around even?

electro.ie

Yeah I have that somewhere, It was with the Redsettaz, I'll dig it out for you.

Yeah he's still around alright. He played at that festival that shant be spoken about around these parts a couple of years back. I actually thought it was quite funny/odd that he finished his set by playing "Drop The Pressure" by Mylo just before Mylo came on to play a live/dj set.

He's actually managing a Dublin band at the moment called Mainline. Seen them live in Tripod a while back, quite good actually. Very like Black Rebel Motorcycle Club. Apparently tipped for big things.

Yeah, I also think he's Arveene's manager isnt he?

I remember Moy made some tune the name escapes me and there was a video with it of him running up and down some stairs on that street near Tripod i cant think of the name of it,what's the name of that tune again does anyone know?

jonny68

He currently manages Arveene and that band Mainline and has been playing abroad a lot. think he's gonna start playing locally a bit more now though.

He used to do a great build with hip hop/trip hop back in the day before he kicked in I always remember Green Velvet - Flash was like a call to the dance floor, if the Dust Brothers remix of Primal Scream-Jailbird hadn't already got you there.

find out this friday..........


Hey all.

This friday sees Johnny Moy join the list of class acts that have made the Weird Scientist the best up and coming club night in Dublin at the moment.
(I'm not going to bother writing up Johnny as if you dont know who he is you wont be into the sorta nights we run ;-))
(www.myspace.com/funboymoy)

As always the distinctive surroundings of the Voodoo Lounge will contribute to the unique electric atmosphere always present at the Weird Scientist events.

The night kicks off at eleven with the Sublime DJ's Tony Lawless and Jay Nyquist doing what they do best at full throtle. After savage summer sessions in the Tivoli and Life festival we're very lucky to have the lads kick start the night.
(www.myspace.com/tonylawless)
(www.myspace.com/jaynyquist)

After the Sublime boys we have a local Dublin band that if your not familiar with you need to sort it out because these lads are on the up and up and its only a matter of time before we're all queueing up to spend big bucks to see them. Promoting their brand new E.P.: Copy, Paste, Delete we are delighted to have Produse playing their own brand of electronica completely live.
(www.myspace.com/produse)

Visuals on the night will be supplied by Mar Q and admission is only e12/e7 for students.

So hope to see you all down there this Friday in Voodoo and at all our future events as well. (Dec 15th sees Hystereo headline with support from Simon F and Jonathon Woods)

And if your a MySpacer you can add us as a friend or just see photo's and news on gigs at www.myspace.com/theweirdscientist.

All the best,

the Weird Scientist.

Was talking to him last night and he's gonna keep it fairly heavy/bangin playing after Produse. He's using 2 x cdj's and 2 x 1210's as well as some outboard gear so should be special.

Zascar

I remember the days when he used to play the redbox and warm up for other DJ's - totally had the place cranking on his own before 12:00. He played for Darren Emerson years ago, one my the most memorable nights...

So, does anyone have the Decks Effects and a whole lotta love album?

Yeah the night was pretty good.
Not a bad crowd either considering Halloween and the bank holiday.

Moy was on form with a nice mix of new and old but the two acts before stole the show. Produse and the Sublime dj's(Tony Lawless and Jay Nyquist) were ****in unreal. Have used them before for other Weird Scientist nights and they always go off with a bang. Ones to watch.

Next one is Saturday Dec 15th with Jonathon Woods and Simon F supporting Hystereo so should be a good Christmas Stomper.
Oh and Felix if u feel like gettin dirty and wreckin Voodoo sometime, gimme a holler.

Yeah would like to have got to this...years since I last heard Johnny Moy play, in fact, it was in the Kitchen sometime after the Temple of Sound closed (or when still open but invaded by a certain radio station and their crew).

Wouldn't know any of the other DJ's to be honest, way behind the times now.

As for gettin dirty and wreckin somewhere, twould appear I'm behind the in the lingo too

Any Johnny Moy mixes from way back floating about? Or Billy Scurry? Theres no end to the Asylum DJ mixes etc but what about The TOS???

That's a fantastic mix up until about the 28 minute mark when the mixing gets seriously dodgy (only for a short while though but still)

Anyway, I love the the percussion. Reminds me of an after club houseparty I went to a few years ago where there was a few lads banging away on their bongos to what the DJ was playing. I thought it was just the DJ with a really good sound system until I noticed the bongos.

Any more like it? Oh and where's Kennedys?

souldeep

Hello Baz,

The reason the mixing gets dodgy is because that's when the percussionist started DJing as well as drumming.After a while Billy starts playing again and it gets better.

I have a few more of DJ's I've brought over that I'll stick up.

Kennedys is on Westland Row behind Trinity College,we do a monthly club there mainly House,Funk,Disco and Soul.

souldeep

Here's one of DJ Spinna :

It's Long,nearly 4 hours, starts of quite slow and soulfull but gets in to more upbeat stuff as it goes on

I was only a little boy when he was in his heyday but my one actual 'memory' of him was of him being a drunken spastic on stage while James Murphy of LCD Soundsystem was Djing a disco set at the picnic a few years back. I remember him shaking Murphy's hand more than once and at one stage actually scraping one of his records, which left Murphy pissed off, and understandably so. In the end I think someone quietly led him away from yer man. Im pretty sure people in the crowd were roaring for him to **** off.

stoksyXL

Anyone hear the story about him being called Johnny "sh*t in the box" Moy?

Supposedly he was playing in the redbox one night and needed a poo badly, and had one in the dj box.

Few people I know said this!

luketitz

Just googled this album and ended up here, mad! Anyone got a copy of that album at all? Some great tunes on it, nicked from me by a dodgy Scouse flatmate in Tenerife, if I do recall correctly!

Ah lads this is great craic. I'm rolling back the years here. That Justin Robertson track is as ballsy as ever.

Had a quick flick through it last night - brought back some memories alright! They were some good times of Dublin clubbing! Will listen to it properly over the weekend. I found it via this facebook page: Dublin old skool DJ mixes

Unfortunately I'm a poor auld culchie from the back of beyond, so the closest I got to Dublin clubbing back then was crawling the walls listening to that mix CD, along with the odd Irish DJ that popped up on 2FM in the early hours. Good memories all the same, or so I've been told.
