Desire @ The Sanctuary, Milton Keynes 29/07/1995

 

Swan E

A quick recap of the last month. We marked halfway through the year at Slammin Vinyl which was all hardcore. Then we had Helter Skelter where there was far more hardcore than drum & bass. Then came Tomorrow's World which was Vibealites techno event. Then last week it was Club Kinetic and Pandemonium which was all hardcore.

The separation between hardcore and drum & bass is becoming more apparent and this event is no exception. This time however we are at a drum & bass only night to counter the lack of drum & bass over the past month.

We're also back at the venue we last heard drum & bass at, The Sanctuary in Milton Keynes. 

Desire were around before the scene split, but they were one of the first promoters to do away with hardcore all together in favour of drum & bass.

Once again though it's "Hearing Is Believing" by MA2 which leads the way in popularity appearing in 7 of the 8 recorded sets.

After the recent heatwave we've been having it becomes apparent from the tapes that something similar was happening in 1995. On several occasions the MC is saying they need to turn the music down for 20 minutes so they can open the doors and let air in to cool the place down.

The Swan E set I've posted is the last set of the night. The MC announces that next week at The Sanctuary is Thunder & Joy. We won't be going there though, find out where we'll be going next week.
