I’m
a
DJ
who originally
comes
from
from
the
London
direction
and
I
moved
up
to
the
North
in
1988
88-89
and
I
ended
up
living
on
the
corner
of
Manchester
near
near
Bury
and
and
somehow
I
managed
to
sorry
let
me
just
try
to
explain
this
a
little
bit
better.
I
originally
lived
in
Milton
Keynes
and
when
I
was
living
in
Milton
Keynes,
I
met
this
bloke
who
lived
in
Chorley
whose
sister
worked
in
Milton
Keynes
and
he
came
down
to
live
in
Milton
Keynes
for
a
while
and
we
end
up
becoming
best
mates
and
he
always
used
to
say
to
me
you
need
to
come
up
you
need
to
come
up
North
so
so
I
started
you
know
in
like
1986-1987
coming
up
to
Chorley
occasionally
and
and
also
I
used
to
do
all
the
I
used
to
go
to
all
the
Acid
House
parties
on
the
M25
circuit.
So
I
went
to
all
of
those
down
south
in
the
The
Summer
of
Love
1989
and
then
my
very
best
friend
from
school
he
ended
up
moving
up
to
Manchester
University.
And
when
he
moved
up
to
Manchester
University,
he
said
he
called
me
whilst
I
was
working
down
South
and
said,
I’m
not
being
funny
right
all
that
stuff
that
we
did
and
all
those
amazing
parties
that we
went
to
on
the
M25
and
also
going
to
the
Astoria
in
London
and
Heaven
in
London
at
to
Rage
and
all
those
amazing
things
that
are
on
down
there
he
said
forget
all
of
them.
I’ve
discovered
this
place
in
Manchester
that
you
need
to
come
to
is
called
the
Hacienda
so
he
called
me
on
this
Wednesday
morning
to
tell
me
this
so
I
drove
straight
up
to
Manchester
that
night
and
from
from
where
I
work
down
South
and
and
went
to
the
Hacienda
for
the
first
time
and
I
absolutely
adored
it.
So
I
end
up
going
back
on
the
Friday
to
the
Hacienda
and
then
this
became
a
cycle
of
going
on
a
Wednesday
and
a
Friday,
I’m
not
joking,
every
single
week
for
nearly
a
year
and
in
the
meantime,
you
know,
I
got
to
know
a
few
people
from
from
up
this
way
and
still
kept
in
contact
with
my
friend
who
had
some
connections
in
Chorley
and
anyway,
we
went
up
I
end
up
going
to
visit
him
in
Chorley
one
time
and
after
going
to
the
Hacienda
and
one
of
his
friends,
who’s
the
guy
who
I’m
sure
you
might
remember
called
Rex
Sergeant.
Yeah.
Yeah.
God
Rest
his
soul.
He
was
he
went
to
school
with
this
guy
was
one
of
my
best
mates
and
he
we
were
sat
in
his
we
were
sat
in
his
upstairs
office
he
had
like
he
worked
in
a
van
hire
place
and
we
were
set
up
in
the
office
and
this
guy
came in
and
said
You
want
to
go
to
a
party?
Ha
ha
and
I
was
like,
all
right.
Okay.
Yeah
course
I
loved
to
I said
what
sort
of a
party
Acid
House
party
I
said,
right.
That
sounds
awesome.
So
we
went
to
this
we
went
to
this
place.
I
think
it
was
called
Pump
Street.
Yeah,
so
my
my
first
experience
of
acid
house
in
Blackburn
was
going
to
Pump
Street
after
going
to
all
of
these
other
things
that
I’d
been
to
and
done
some
pretty
pretty
fantastic
stuff,
you
know
in
all
of
that
period
gone
to
all
of
those
parties
and
then
we
turned
up
at
Pump
Street
and
there
was
just
one
strobe
light
going
asbestos
dust
on
the
floor.
There
was
a
guy
doing
poetry
over
the
top
of
this
this
Joy
Division
track
and
then
it
turned
into
you
know
Acid
House
music
The
Phantom
all
those
kind
of
tunes
and
it
was
it
was
truly.
It
was
just
the
most
earthy
experience
that
I
had
had
in
all
of
the
stuff
that
I’ve
done
and
I’ve
been
like,
you
know,
I’ve
just
given
you
the
background
of
all
the
things
that
we
went
to
we
were
fully
immersed
in
in
the
in
the
scene,
but
when
we
when
we
turned
up
there,
it
was
just
so
raw
that
I
loved
it.
I
love
that
energy
and
I
love
the
fact
that
even
though
I
was
from
down
there,
you
know
just
got
to
know
a
couple
of
people
and
then
instantly
they
warmed
to
us.
I
think
the
thing
is
that
you
know,
you
have
to
you
have
to
not
take
yourself
too
seriously
and
people
will
take
the
piss
a
little
bit
and
all
the
rest
of
it
and
then
and
then
if
you
can
give
that
back
and
they
like
the
you
know,
they
like
a
bit
of
that
kind
of
banter
I
just
became
accepted
and
it
was
It
was
a
real
it
was
a
really
brilliant
experience.
So you
were
going
as
a
punter.
at the
time?
Yeah, I was going as a punter
You weren’t
DJ’ing at the time?
Yeah
completely
going
as
a
punter,
but
I’d
started
to
DJ
and
I
started
to
do
some
tapes
and
then
I
started
seeing
a
girl
who
who
called
Amanda
and
she
like
the
tapes
I
was
doing
and
then
she
played
those
tapes
to
her
brother
Clack
who
did
all
the
drinks
in
the
drinks
vans
and
then
we
just
somehow
all
formed
a
bit
of
a
bond
then
I
started
DJing
at
Minstrels
in
Blackburn
which
was
one
of
the
places
where
a
lot
of
people
met
On
Darwen
Street
Yeah
before
going
to
go
into
all
the
parties
and
then
from
doing
all
that
stuff

introduced
me
to
a
guy
called
Hazim
and
Brian

then
after
doing
that
for
a
little
while
then
somebody
didn’t
turn

one
of

parties
one
time

Shack
then
I
met
Tommy
and
then
yeah,
we
just
started
to
get
to
know
each
other
a
little
bit
and
you
know
it
the
thing
is
that
my
relationship
it
was
like
I
was
a
punter
I
was
involved
doing
the
you
know
doing
the
the
Pirate
stuff
and

the
end
when
when
they
started
to
close
everything
down,
you
know
in
the
they
did
the
Strawberry
Fields
parties
and
all
that
type
of
stuff
right
at
the
end
of
that
when
they
decided
I
had
to
move
out
of
Blackburn
because
there
was
so
much
pressure
from
the
police.
That’s
when
they
started
doing
little
decided
to
do
stuff
in
Leeds
and
by
this
point,
I
was
actually
now
living
in
Leeds
and
they
asked
me
if
I
wanted
to
DJ
at
the
party
in
Leeds
and
that
is
when
I
ended
up
getting
on
the
microphone
and
saying
listen
if
you
want
to
keep
the
party
going
we’re
gonna
have
to
fight
the
bastards
and
as
a
result
of
that.
Yeah
a
thousand
people
went
mental
you
were
there
I
believe
Yeah,
absolutely
there.

saw
you
building
