Going through boxes I left stored at mum's house, literally in a box in the attic, I found a book listing my early gig going years from 1979 to 1983. I have memories of all of them to some extent but I neatly recorded the artists I saw live until about 1985 by which time I couldn't be arsed, but if anyone wants to know more about any of these shows I'll try and post up memories if I can be arsed, lol.

making beats
I am looking for a simple entry level synth or beatmachine for my son (9 years).
I have a teenage engineering PO 12, but that thing is too complicated and the display doesn't make sense for a kid.Any suggestions other than the blipblox after dark?

https://www.youtube.…prophetone - Roland made a Groove Box, or somebody made it, pretty easy to make an entire track on that at that age.canoe

Signs your getting old?
On a Greek holiday (Paros) we found the local dance music radio station 'Venus' radio, broadcasting from Mykonos. It was great as we didn't have a phoen cable and the car was very basic. Winner – house music all week.
After a day of it, I noticed that all the tracks had that afro-house / amapiano feeling – but the very white version of that sound, like Keinemusik. I am a big fan lof house and techno, DJ'd for years and have a reasonably scholarly appreciation of most dance music.
Stuff like this:
Anyway, before I could realize what I was saying, i turned to my wife and said – "is it me or does all this music sound the same?" and we both looked at each other and i was like "NOOOOOOO!!! It happened!"
The answer is yes it did all sound the same, and by that I mean broadly, average.
- Modern Greek house music is as generic as most other house music. I love the traditional Greek music though.CyBrainX
- There's a global trend though of this sound (like the one on the left) and its so pervasive but i also don't know if thats what the younger crowd like nowadays!DaveO
- Long live the magic of the 90s and early 00s and it's colourful spectrum of sounds and music subcultures
https://www.youtube.…prophetone - IMO ultra clean house style reflects the way young people want to party now, dressed expensive, fancy drinks, clean environment like a nice hotel rooftop patioprophetone
- It's safe and polished, it looks great on Instagram... back in day no one cared about all that, just amazing choons, friends, sweaty, rough environmentsprophetone
