The Frankie Friday Music Thread.....RIP on 00:07 - Jun 12 by QPsyR
The two records I loved and could see were a thing before I ever knew what Acid House was
Remember this on the boat 34 years ago almost today England v Holland with EmellRs - Harwich to the Hook....
This was one of the first for me….
Having been into Electro & Hip Hop I caught the wave of acid slightly later than I should’ve done really. Still loved the fact it was underground and got sneered at by almost everyone. Loved the rawness and energy of it….. they asked Can You Feel It?…. I could and it felt great
Cherish and enjoy life.... this ain't no dress rehearsal

I love the fact Oochie koochie was made from samples of Colin Favers Kiss fm radio show.

Prog. The drop between 7 mins 40 secs to 8 mins 15.... Could you imagine your average modern pop EDM audience waiting for the payoff at 8:15? I don't think so.
No pinky and perky bongos Steve!

Oh yes…. Yes indeed.
Hitting the Balearics in 1988 as a wide eyed 17 year old and seeking out the dance clubs due to my soul boy / ska head tastes took me to a new world. Vaguely aware of this new phenomenon via friends and the wonderful building industry of the time but I walked into Alexandra’s Nightclub that first night and it took my breath away. The raw 303 sound and pumping beats caught me like a lasso and it’s never let me go. Royal House was the anthem that holiday and the rest is history…. Who’s in the House? I said who’s in the house?
Thirty four bleedin years ago!!!

Not sure if fellow Frankies have been following the story on the news of the UK journalist missing in the Amazon, Dom Phillips...or if you have, realised it was the same Dom who edited Mixmag throughout the 90s.
Sadly, his passing has been confirmed today. Murdered doing his job, while trying to give a voice to Brazil's indigenous tribes, and reveal the scale of the damaging and illegal activities of ruthless criminal gangs in the region.
I worked with Dom for many years, and you couldn't meet a lovelier bloke.
My favourite Mixmag cover strapline of his was on the 1996 review of the year issue - a great picture of Underworld's Karl Hyde, with the words:

Shine on Dom - this one's for you.
This is sad news. RIP Dom Philips. Goes without saying really how influential mixmag was back in pre Internet days. Between Mixmag and DJmag they were of a few credible sources of club and rave culture and music. I've still got loads of the free CDs that mixmag generously supplied. Thoughts are with his family and friends, and to you Nick. X

He also published a brilliant book, Superstar DJs, which if you haven’t read, I really recommend it.
RIP Dom

Yes, I saw your post on FB Nick and realised it was the same one as had been on the news. I was really sorry to hear that awful news.

I didn’t know that and thanks for sharing.
Tragic situation and I did see something that this could be an ordered hit as he was upsetting some influential people / gangsters in the area of logging and destruction of “the worlds lungs”.
As people have already said copies of Mixmag and DJ were must reads back then and always gave you an urge to visit other clubs in other towns and cities. I was a magazine geek back then and used to buy them regularly along with The Face and then onto GQ, FHM and Loaded.
Mixmag was the business on music with DJ mag a very close second
RIP Mr Phillips and condolences to his friends and family
