Where do I even start? I was lucky enuff to have a uncle that owned a rave back in the day called the Dungeons (Leyton, Leabridge Rd). I worked thier as a 15 year old kid when it first opened in late 87. The Club hosted many ledgenary nights all the way through to the summer of 1990. I started Djing at this point and was goodenuff to get a flex on the decks. This was a golden time in my life as the music and the rave party scene was new. After it closed I was hooked on raving and raved to early hardcore drumnbass and then Jungle up untill 1996. By now I was a bit older and then raved to UK garage as well.

The dungeons reopened again in 1999 and I started managing it all the way through to 2004. Again the club hosted many wicked nights. In between this ive djed on and off under different DJ names.

Theres so much to say but thats the jist of it really.

I now look forward to exploring this site and chatting to fellow oldskool heads :)

Nah im pretty sure he dident. I cant ever remember someone mentioning his name over the years. He probally did know all the security teams from back in the day though. The Dungeons had a well know sercurity team on the door. (Thats why it never got taken over).

What book was it from can you remember?
