It will now you've made one post.

I remember listening to the latter days of his Saturday night show around 2007, and he randomly dropped F.R.A.N.K T.R.A.X. Nebuchan amongst a load of new tracks in the last half an hour of his show. He did this as well with Gladiator 'Now We Are Free' a couple of years back too. He may have been short on decent recent stuff at the time, something he should of done more often I thought though.

I like a lot of the 2 step stuff, that was around when I was well into dance music. I did collect some Artful Dodger stuff on vinyl, also have 'Love Shy' too that's in that mix. Like I said above though, Jules never seemed to bother with the 99-2000 stuff, just the 97 stuff it seems. I did a mix 12 months ago of what I regard as 'speed garage'. Couldn't fit them all into 80 mins, but there are a few in there:- http://www.mixcloud.com/lyndonedwards/90s-speed-garage-classics-mixed-by-lyndon-edwards/

I thought his mixing was a bit off key compared to his Saturday show that was broadcast a few hours before! Saying that I can't argue with his track selection mind, Airwave & Fire and Ice are just so special. As for this being an hour, I'm sure he shared the essential mix that Sunday morning with Paul Van Dyk who did the first hour and Jules the second. This file has just been edited to include Jules, but I've heard PVD's hour on soundcloud. I was only 12 at the time this went out so wasn't old enough to be there. But it looked a good setup, is it still going in some form?

Can anyone elaborate on this anymore? Some of Judge Jules' first Radio 1 shows have a fair amount of speed garage on them. But from what I can tell, it seems to fizzle out around the middle of 1998. Well as far as Jules is concerned, so I assume it sort of died out from the mainstream until '2-step' garage came to the fore in late 1999. And Jules never bothered with that strain of things, guess it was too 'Urban'. I remember tracks like 'R.I.P Groove' & 'Gunman' that got into the mainstream, but it seemed to come and go within the space of less than 2 years. I never got to properly understand dance music until around 1999 so it's not really part of my memory.

Yeah I noticed that it was a tad slow, only very slightly though. I haven't really given this a proper listen yet, is it a situation where someone has taped their favorite tracks? Or do they actually let it run through?

Lots of classics in this show, were tracks thin on the ground a few years back?

Worth adding to the archive then, I wonder if there's any more on that site? Good thing is it seems the majority of that Friday Night show survives right till the end.

Not sure if anyone already has this, don't think it's on here either as I've had a quick look. But I downloaded this from a torrent site a few weeks ago here:- http://www.tribalmixes.com/torrent/79146-Judge-Jules-22-23rd-November-1997 It took me a while to download and I had to register there so I've re-uploaded to Zippyshare. I would of posted it in the audio section, but I think the tape is a bit chopped up and I'm not sure what section is from what date. I'd rather leave it to the mods and researchers on here to decide what to do with it. The date seems genuine anyway as he's playing a few tracks on there that he played on his set from Sound City 97, notably Trevor Reilly's 'Down With The Underground'. Not sure if the exact dates in November 1997 are correct though. Anyway, download it (as it was from the torrent) here:- http://www20.zippyshare.com/v/88940648/file.html

You do now.

A friend of mine who used to do a dance show on BRMB in Brum a few years ago, had a wicked white label house/breaks mix of that he used to play. Never been able to track it down, yet. A few of mine could be:- JX - You Belong To Me Dario G - Sunchyme (don't know why) Dario G - Dream To Me (really commercial but liked it) New Order - Blue Monday DB Boulevard - Point Of View M People - How Can I Love You More There's a few more around i'm sure.

Morillo's set was probably the best of the night, lots of expected modern/electro house in there. But out of nowhere as I recall watching live, i'm sure he drops the Rhythm Masters mix of Todd Terry's Jumpin'. Never heard many of his sets in recent times, but top respect to him if he throws in tracks such as that now and again. It pays to give a history lesson to the new generation.

It must be a pain to load up future internet on that old dial up back there! Welcome!

It's truly awful, even the likes of heart fm picked it up so it got apsolutley everywhere. Sadly the commercial music scene is full of shockers like that.

I always prefered Mark & Lard's remix 'Get Get Up'. Made with a cheap casio keyboard of course! Never got Eric Prydz 'Pjanoo', did my head in after a bit. Even though you could say it was maybe the last proper dance track to break into the mainstream. After that in 2009 it was all that Kid Cudi/Swedish House Mafia/Guetta stuff that was really busy and noisy. A lot of deeper/tech house stuff seems to be breaking through now like Disclosure (their remix of Jessie Ware), and Shadow Child (Dave Spoon making deeper stuff). So I hope it pushes away all this really busy Guetta/Swedes sound, it's ran it's course.

Cheers for all these, I remember listening to this very show on the way to Stoke to visit my mum in hospital. Strange but true memory.

Her voice sounded like fingernails on a blackboard to me, glad she's been left in 1999 with Lou Bega.

I've got quite a few that i'm too tired to think of right now. I always used to think that Dido sang "I will go down with this s--t" on 'White Flag'.

Come to think of it I have 'Rainbow Country' on CD. My embarressing moment of the day.

A risky attempt, but proving back then DJ's had more guts and would actually take the pitch past +2%. It's all sync buttons at 122bpm nowdays.

I always imagined that downfall was around 2003-4 way? Trance still seemed the main player or close in the dance music scene in the early 2000's as far as I could see at the time.

We were put in our place by Poland I think earlier, getting away with a draw was a good result considering our performance. The praise for Rooney from the media is quite commical though, non of them including him played as well as they could (even Gerrard). But I can't help but think if that was Michael Owen or David Beckham playing 10 years ago like that, there would of been retirement calls. On the scoresheet or not.

The beauty of 1999 and the early 2000's is that social media wasn't around to spead this crap.

It's like a sad decline of a childhood hero to me, i'd love it to be a wakeup call for him to try something else. Don't know if that will happen though.
