For those of you who don’t know, the man in the striped shirt is none other than Pal Joey. He’s produced under many aliases, one being Soho - Hot Music, this song came out nearly 30 years ago and was an underground smash. It was never on a major label and has never left most DJ’s sets. That’s a rarity, I’d say impossible. Secondly, he may have single handily invented the genre “Disco House” with his song “Dance” by Earth People. One of, if not the first House record to use a disco loop. And lastly, his mixdowns are legendary, his drums knock harder than 10000 T-rex‘s running to get Black Friday deals. I rarely post commentary but this was big for me and meeting him and hearing his stories was mind blowing! I was an annoying, giddy teenager, thanks Pal Joey for putting up with me. To top it all off, Dizzee rascal was in the house! And of course A-Trak, thanks for booking him! #paljoey #toddterry #kennydope #dizzeerascal #atrak」12月9日 3時00分
