Geeselad

It's been great to watch this event build steadily over the last 18 months, last Saturday, however saw Keele with a very busy dancefloor and a real buzz about it once more.  

Proceedings were kicked off by jez Jones, who delivered a great set full of lesser known oldies and underplayed gems. Alan Jenkins, Fred Benson and of course Ted Massey brought our the big guns with a top selection of rare classics. In contrast Johnny beggs followed with a set of exclusives and one offs. John weston has to be one of the very best northern and R&B DJs in the game and played a highly danceble set including the gentlemen four and muchachos as requests from me. Fellow gathering resident proved she is one of the best out there at the moment with a set full of energy and verve, filling the floor in the small hours with easy- just grooving along. Proceedings were closed by Rob Smith and pep, who played quality rare classics of an ilk you only really get to here at nighters. All in all a top night and proper nighter. 

It really was an absolute pleasure to be asked to DJ at FTMNTC. Soul nights are plentiful but this event is truly unique in allowing the djs the freedom to play what they want.

Having missed the last couple of events it was great to catch up with old friends and see an evergrowing crowd of regulars attending the event. It was a real pleasure to DJ on the same bill as Martin who played an absolute blinding set, with a vanguard of quality, obscurity and diversity. To be straight forward, I didn't know half of what he played, he filled the floor and the diversity was amazing in Martin's set, which exemplified the FTMNTC ethos. Got to give credit to the residents and promotors who make the event possible and set the tone for the music. These lads are definitely on to something here!
