https://ricardosevere.wordpress.com/2014/02/16/back-on-the-streets
Back On The Streets. Back On The Streets was probably the longest running regular night I DJ’d at. It was in King’s Cellars, a long, pitch-black basement room under a college, whose walls and ceiling would be dripping sweat by the end of the night. Fresh from DBA, Saul. Set up the gig (claiming the territory before King Robin. Back On The Streets was every Tuesday. Monday was the big night (house music, courtesy of Anu Pillai. Or the Superstars music. A few months in we were getting as many people on Tue...

The most popular game was house. House music what Frankie Knuckles called ‘disco’s revenge’ first began to appear in clubs like the Mud. Around 1986. Initially resisted by an underground scene accustomed to rare groove. Go go and hip hop. It failed to gain a foothold in London at first and made more of an impact up north. But by 1988 and the arrival of acid house, house (together with the accompanying horrendous fashion choices and dance moves. Was everywhere, and it was terrifying the tabloids. And Get ...

Rebirth of The Jazz Rooms | Ricardo Severe
https://ricardosevere.wordpress.com/2013/03/17/rebirth-of-the-jazz-rooms
Rebirth of The Jazz Rooms. The Jazz Rooms in Brighton is probably the place I had the most fun DJing – and dancing. Straight No Chaser. Magazine called it ‘a legendary affair that all should attend’, while Ross Allen. Who wrote the Destination Out column, used to refer to it as the longest running club night on planet Earth. That’s a pretty accurate description given that The Jazz Rooms ran for more than 25 years before its creator, DJ Russ Dewbury. Put it on hold when he moved to Australia. Aleluia R...

Disco Express | Ricardo Severe
https://ricardosevere.wordpress.com/2015/05/09/disco-express
Disco gets a bad rap, partly because the genre was hijacked by the major labels and partly because white rockers, threatened by a movement associated with black/gay people, not to mention women, launched the ‘disco sucks’ campaign that climaxed with a ritual burning of disco records. In Chicago (ironically the place where house music. Tim Lawrence has written a good account of the birth of disco in New York in Love Saves The Day. And there’s a great compilation from the time. Will recognize the Rose Royc...

Deep Background | Ricardo Severe
https://ricardosevere.wordpress.com/2013/09/10/deep-background
I only began paying real attention to deep house a few years later, however, in the mid-90s, when hanging out with people who’d routinely sift through new house imports, rather than just old funk/jazz records, in record stores (London Rock’s Mr George. Records (New Jersey), Nuphonic (London), Paper Recordings (Manchester) and F Communications (Paris).
