[QUOTE="silocybe, post: 457521, member: 1107"] Was into Breakin in the early eighties , wasnt great but could body pop not bad. There was always the Electro series tapes circulating amonst us and i remember i used to change stickers in Woolies to get some of the electro albums for 99p aswell as asking people to give me their money and i would get their albums for a quid or so cheaper (that way earning a few quid for myself). Remeber listening to Stu allen i think in 86 and espacially remember hearing on 103 Chad Jacksons 87 winning dmc mix which blew me away at the time. Me and a mate called Kev used to go places like Mr Smiths :$ and other clubs in Warrington when we were 15 (he looked alot older so helped blagg me in). Between us we would be pickin up mostly Hip hop vinyl and the odd house track. Then 89 came :thumbsup: Went a few raves , did the Hacienda on my 16th , started pickin up more house vinyl... did Konspiracys a few times on i think a thursday night ? (stu allen played hiphop downstairs - maybe Neil can help me out here) and went on from there...never really stopped since, though have had calmed down now. some of the tracks that i remember had a big impact on me were Grandmaster Flash & Melle Mel - White Lines Afrika Bambaataa & Soulsonic Force - Planet Rock Doug e fresh - the show Steinski & Mass Media - We'll Be Right Back Egyptian Lover - Girls and of course the breakin anthem Kraftwerk - Tour de france [/QUOTE]
