    Piano Chords & melodies for oldskool tunes

    I recently got hold of a second hand piano, and have been learning music from scratch just for fun - must say it is great and can recommend it. I have made good progress too, in just a few months (helped I think from having a keen interest in house and being amateur DJ back in the day)...

    Lossless Music Files - Levelling and Sharing?

    I have started the long and arduous task of attempting to slowly change over my electronic music library from MP3 to Lossless (Apple Lossless). Which will involve having to re-record much of my house vinyl. Can anyone recommend the best PC (not Mac) volume leveller if you are drawing your music...

    Any early (spring/summer 1992) Bowlers DJ mixes/tracklists?

    Not sure if this is the right forum, but I noticed after a quick search yesterday that I could not find any early Bowlers DJ mixes/tracklists from the spring/summer 1992 period (i.e. the first 4 or 5 months after it opened). The only things I have got are the first night and Hitman/Her videos...

    Northern Soul - help with best tracks?

    After journeying thorugh a lot of top old 70's disco/funk/soul, I've recently started to go a bit further back and listen to northern soul tracks. From what I've listened to so far, Benny Spellman's "Fortune Teller" is a belter. However I'm not really that clued up on what are considered the...

    Oldskool fashion - how it evolved from 86-92'?

    Does anyone have memories on what were the "must have" fashion accessories between 86-92'? Seems like there was a shift from 88' and the back-end 80's gear, smiley t-shirts and dungarees, through to ski jackets(Berghaus or Henri Lloyd) being desirables in 92' Forgotten the rest - though seem to...

    Oldskool Tune formats (i.e. 320kbps MP3 vs Lossless)?

    Hi All, I know this topic has been partially discussed before, but I want to avoid the pitfalls I've made before with ripping from vinyl to electronic format (i.e. the poor quality 128kbps MP3 file mistake) I've been reading a lot recently in Hi-Fi mags about the arguments for/against between...

    Sound Systems back in the day/now?

    One for the sound enthusiasts - does anyone have any idea what sound systems were used for clubs/raves back in the day, and how do they compare to now? For example I'm pretty sure subwoofers didn't exist until later in the 90's (but maybe I'm wrong) Also how did organisers go about choosing...

    The early House Music scene in the UK?

    Was thinking about this the other day, as I was checking the release year of my oldest house MP3's. I was really suprised at just how many tunes were released before 1988, with quite a few as early as 84, 85' and 86' Yet we usually only hear of the scene exploding in 1988. So what the hell was...
