Let them take you to the weekend
Our first DJ this week is Steve OoodLet them take you to the weekend
Steve
has been obsessed with music since the age of 0. He started picking up
guitars around the age of 14. Two years later he was writing and
performing as singer and guitarist in the punk/rock band Gandoon.
He went to his first acid house rave in Bristol in 1987 or 88 (he can't
remember); the great vibe and the air full of sounds he had never heard
before set the tone for all that was to come, inspiring him and
Gandoon's drummer Kieran Timlin to hire out a recording studio and Steve
wrote his first dance track, the acid house flavoured 'I Wanna Know
Your Love' (Stargoat Records '88). Later, on hearing he had left school,
the studio's owners got in touch and invited Steve to come and work
there, during which time he also learned to DJ while moonlighting with
their mobile disco.
After a year globe trotting, a College course in Music Tech and a deep
imersion into the London underground dance scene of the early 90's
(where Steve wrote/co-wrote a series of trippy dub tracks and honed his
djing and gurning skills) Steve moved to Oxford, and in the summer of
1994 organised one of the first psy-trance parties to take place outside
London. With
the help of Rama and various other friends Datura turned out to be a
great success, and was the first of many times that Steve was lucky
enough to play alongside psy-heros Mark Allen, Chrisbo, Yazz and Lol
(Pagan, Return To The Source, Otherworld etc.). Steve met Colin that
September, after a random meeting at his front door. The two were soon
in Colin's home studio together, finishing off a track Colin had
started. Within weeks they were joined by Nigel and his analogue
electronics, and the first OOOD track 'Orang-U-Tang' was written. These
days Steve is usually to be found slowly going bananas working on the
latest OOOD track in one of the studios, but he still finds time to be
an avid music collector across the spectrum of dance music and beyond,
turning out fresh mixes on what sometimes seems like a weekly basis and
rocking dancefloors across the world at any opportunity.
Our second Dj this week is Lorraine who I have heard play many times and also enjoy her mixes something to get you dancing.
Lorraine will be dj ing @...
