Paul you mad thing,
I might be going out to Zanaibar this Aug 3 Sunday. Warren K and Francois are doing an Oldskool set. I went to a couple of nights in Radio City recently and met Luke G, Derra and BMooney from Boards, all sound blokes. And it was pure coincidence, just got talking to people and mentioned boards and away in a hack had a great night, was there with Suzanne, Brian, Suzannes brother and Vicky. Brian wasn't there for the Sides one but there may be a few from Boards going out this weekend, timing is perfect!

F*CK me sean i would never have remembered going into jimmy deans after the OLYMPIC for a few j's down the back...the heads running the shop were sound used to let about 100 mad E heads in to skin up & drink tea:eek: before heading off for to the ASYLUM or wherever :pac:

Ah auld Jimmy's, an important pitstop where spliffs got rolled and plans for the night made, would it be down to the Asylum or back to a gaf, usually depended on the cash flow. 10 sugars in Jimmy's tea and you were sorted:D

I remember some bird that must have been in her late 30's(seemed old then) selling everything just outside the DJ box, Acid, E, Speed, Coke, Gear, Hash...i SH*T you not....but you would swear her day job was selling on moore street with the mad Townie accent on her shouting everything for sale:D

Yeah I bought wrappin paper of her once:D

Man i used to buzz with a bloke from milltown called Daisy that done the very same SH*T (playing golf, tennis) that used to buzz up at the back right hand corner of the balcony if you were facing it from the stage....there could hardly be two mad F*CKERS in there playing golf with an imaginary ball & club without them knowing each other:eek:

Believe it or not there was two 'Buzzers'. One was small and stumpy always smiling and the other was older, taller and maener lookin:D
Both played golf and they even had caddys following them around. They wouldn't buzz together as far as I can remember but I'm sure they played on the same green.
When all the clubs were closed a few of us went to 'Marleys' in the Three Rock at the back of Rathfarnham. It was a deadly spot with excellent sound and Pink Mad Bastards were the order of the day. One night I seen the stumpy Buzzer collecting glasses while working as bar staff:eek: I couldn't believe it. There was actually a fair few bodies from the Olympic who went up there.

Gerry the bouncer was the only one i knew by name cause he used to let a few of us in for less than the asking price if we all put our money together & stick it in in sky....as for the rest of the bouncers didnt really know them but they did F*CK a friend of ours from drimnagh that collapsed & hit his head bad out across the street & left him there away from the building & said F*CK all...which he was fortunate enough to lapse into a coma & have to learn to walk & talk agian when he did come out of it ages later.....Dead sound blokes:mad:

Remember the bouncer who was small, fat, bald and had a pony tail, he was a smart arse. He used to make future Asylum resident Wayne Clifford wait till the q went in teasing him saying that he was too young to get in, then he'd let him in. Remember Wayne telling me he done that to him week in week out.
There was another one who had a mustash, he was sound. Never knew that one about the bangers:mad:

Ye i have that ULTRACYNIC tune on tape recorded off the hitman & her!!!!

Theres a bit of software & hardware like this fella here needed for video converting,

http://www.hauppauge.com/site/products/data_goplus.html

I have one of the versions of this but cant find it here....have it about 5 year now & is pretty much the same as this only this version doent seem to have the pause live TV feature some of the other ones have.....the top end ones are for windows Vista only but sure you dont need it for making half decent transfers with some editing.....the ASYLUM vid i done was on XP with a 40gb hard drive, 512mb of RAM, Pentium 4 processor & a version of the product linked to above......you can pick these up in PC world, Peats, Maplins Ect. for about €100.00 & you can then set up your SKY or NTL through yer computer & have it like SKY+ Pause, rewind, Fast Forward live TV.....F U C K me i sound like an advertisment for the company:rolleyes: Anyway its worth payinng the few extra quid to get decent software functions with it for editing:D

The Night Link, you could start a tread on that alone. Remember the drunk fools all over Camden Street Mick on the way down to Jimmy Deans? It just seemed so right what we were doing compared to those fools, FOOLS I TELLS YA!

We used to have great craic on the nite link going home after a mad night, always have a few joints and maybe a can or two of Scrumpy. When we started going out first we used to be still full of energy and one of the lads would have a walkman with speakers in his bag so we'd have tunes but as the e's changed we all used to be in bits at the end of the night, not even talking.

Cheers,

Good info mate. Do you actually remember that song being played in the Olympic, great for the rushes:) First thing I need is a bloddy video recorder:eek: I'm just after coping it that my uncle can do this for me. He's fairly refined so I know he'll be saying 'What the **** is he in to'. Just do the tape Harry:D

Would love to go and meet up for a few beers, stories and some great old music but the wife is 8 + 1/2 months pregnant, so she is very tired and grumpier than normal, so if I said I'm off to town she would lose it... next time lads, first round on me!

Really appreciate the feedback. Sometimes its nice to know when you put a bit of work into a post that it hasn't been ignored

Now do you remeber dancing to this one in Sides under dj Liam Fitz who is a total legend in my mind. He could mix oil and water!

BBG - Snappiness
http://www.discogs.com/release/44042

What a tune. Only like the original and not some of the later remakes.

theasylumdublin

well in fairness if the wife is about to have a saucepan lid (KID) you better do the right thing !!! best of luck to you both with the new little one when he/she arrives !!! and defo lets have a few scoops after the dust settles !! P

Is mise le key

Heres a track i just thought i would throw out there for nostalgic reasons,

http://rapidshare.com/files/133826349/mr.roys_united.states.mp3.html

Remember this always being played in SIDES & when it breaks in the middle of the tune @ 3:25 i always thought it sounded like a tune you would hear in the ASYLUM....even at that short time after the ASYLUM closing it upset me to think it was closed for good...SIDES was F U C K I N great but it was after the ASYLUM closed it was a road of RAVE after RAVE closing down:mad: that really pi ssed me off.....anyway this was hopping in SIDES when it was played:D & sticks out in my memory.

The other half of the Chillage Idiots did this last year on Ableton and its quality esp "Chime" into "Energy Flash" where's he looped that high pitched string and both merge over each other. Brilliant.
Enjoy,

Mick Chillage Old School classics megamix (August 2007)

Everyone has their own definition of what old school is or what classic dance, techno, house, music is, I guess this is a collection of mine.. This mix will hopefully appeal to those who were around in the late 80’s to mid 90’s & maybe the younger clubber who has an interest in the past.. Also you may notice the dominance of the UK scene in the mix, this is due to the fact that the sound of Detroit & Chicago etc.. had not really penetrated Ireland in the early days except for maybe kevin Saunderson’s Inner city project or Rhythim is Rhythim “strings of life” which I originally had in the mix & later removed. In my early years of clubbing I always wanted to hear a perfect mix of my favorite tracks, & sometimes I came very close, but the DJ would usually f*ck it up with something like Black box’s “ride on time”.. or even worse Timmy mallet’s “teeny weeny polka dot bikini” which had the ubiquitous “Oh Yeah” Public Enemy sample in it… Anyway fast forward to present day, I am fortunate to have all of these influential tracks in my CD collection & some amazing music making software called ableton & now I have what I would call the perfect Dj set of my favorite old school classic’s Ok some of the tracks may not be seen by many as classic or even old school, but they just connected with me in that unexplainable way…
Hope you enjoy,

Nice mix M8 some happy memories attached to those tracks over the years **** only seems like yesterday though. I have never really tried to put together my perfect oldskool mix probably cause it would be about 6 hours long spanning at least 4 genres of dance music but alot of the stuff that you have on that one would go down as the tracks that got me into dance music in the first place. Excellent

Does anyone remember the Dublin dance band, Microrave
They were around in the 1990's, I think they where from the north side
somewhere, they used to be played alot on Sunset 106fm,

The only track I remember they done is the one where the guy says ,
Yo, Get on it, with a real heavy drum drack,


I would love to here it again, :cool:

Thanks a million Brian, takes me right back to Sides.
I remember hearing this for this for the very first time and I was in the jacks waffling for ages with the lads as you do and when this song came on I proceeded to run up to the dj box to find out what it was and of course Mick would always give you a false name for the buzz he he !!!
It was gas running around town trying to get a tune when walshy would give you a false name and when you ask Billy Dics for it he would always say, yeah that will be in next week so between not knowing the name of the tune and Billy's famous line it was near impossible to get some tunes, bleedin gas owl days though !
