Thought i’d introduce myself. Here’s a bit about me… 😉

I’m a 22 yr old lad from Telford, Shropshire, West Mids.

I’m a bedroom DJ (not a very good one!) who loves his House music, aswell as a bit of old skool rave (classic house,breakbeat hardcore/jungle etc..) I love my music, and i can sit at home and listen to the stuff all day long. I’m proud of my vinyl collection, which i mainly acquired through my older brother & my old man (who were both really into the rave scene years ago). Its not the biggest collection (about 250-300) but i’ve got some great classics and rare ones in there, spanning quite a few different genres, aswell as the more recent House records ive brought myself.

I’m one of those people that you meet who bangs on about how gutted he is that he missed out on the 90s scene as he was too young. Why oh why did i have to be born as late as 88? 😥 I get dead jealous when my oldest brother (who is now in his mid thirties) talks about raving it up in the early 90s at places like Kinetic and Shelleys in Stoke 🙂

Basically, i’m fed up of generic local town centre nightclubs, playing their shitty RnB and cheesy chart stuff. Considering the size of the town, Telford is awful for underground dance music. pretty much non-existant. Just your typical crappy mainstream-music-playing clubs.

SO…. i’ve come here in search of underground dance nights/events, and to get myself ‘in the loop’ so to speak.

Anyone else from anywhere near me? Can anyone recomment any decent House or Old Skool nights/events in the midlands(ish). I’m very interested in the free party scene too, but i guess i won’t get much info on that until ive been here a while. Is that sort of thing big in the West Mids these days? If so, what sort of numbers can it pull in? Is the scene in decline/on the rise.

I just wanna go out raving with good people, at places with a positive atmosphere and real underground music.

Anyway, thats enough about me for me. Sorry for the long post and questions. Looking forward to getting stuck in here 🙂

Roll on the 3rd summer of love, if only for my sake 😆
