CANCELLED: 22 Feb 2002 @ Soho

babble regret to announce we’ve decided to pull our planned dates at Soho until further notice. Thanks to all who came to the last one – I think its fair to say that while the majority of folk had a top night as usual, a sizeable minority did not, due to a complete lack of respect (at best) and downright abuse of rights (at worst) from the security (=thugs). We did our best to work out the problems with the club owner, but at the end of the day members of babble and trancemission all agreed that if we can’t put on a night that is safe and fun for all then its just not worth doing. Look out for a free party in the near future – we’re currently actively looking for a venue (please get in touch if you can help); a boat party is a strong possibility too. Anyway, nuff said, peace, love and chunky house music forever, respect to you all – normal service will resume asap.

babble xmas excess

Next party: 28th Dec 2001 – double trouble @ Soho, 41 Halford St., Leics. UK.
Featuring: Long Jon, Debs, Dave & Manners.

Thanks once again to all those who made our birthday celebration last weekend such a corker. Slight change to the line up for the next night… Bov & Damo step down to let Debs dish out the tunes, although they’ll be coming along and may well end up funking things up again.

On a personal note, I really enjoyed playing at the birthday party. Sorry about the temporary power outage at 5am – one of our really old amps seems to have taken a turn for the worse and is being particularly cranky. Thankfully persistance payed off, you lot didn’t go home, and we did get everything cranked back up for the last half hour, with cheeky ol’ Bov stretching the night till well past 6am ;-).

birthday season

Went to the Smokescreen birthday party last weekend at a gorgeous site in derbyshire. We danced bathed in moonlight to chunky tune after tune. I was supposed to be driving back at some point on Sunday but it took me a long time to drag myself away from the rig for some sleep. For breakfast I discovered some kind of motorcross going on outside my Van (not nice) and Rick from DiY playing back down at the soundsystem (much more like it).

babble are 8!

babble 8th birthday party: 30th Nov 2001 – double trouble @ Soho, 41 Halford St., Leics. UK.
Featuring: Tom & Banksy (Smokescreen), Bov & Damien (babble), Mono (babble), Debs (babble) + Rob (Trancemission’s Trance Traitor & Secret House Lover)

I can’t remember that much of the last babble night so I’m guessing it was good 😉 lovely to see so many good friends, especially Doris & Luke who travelled all the way from the middle of nowhere (aka deepest France). Looking forward to seeing you all again at the birthday party for mashed up house madness and tickling your fancy with tunes to make you dance, fatboy, dance.
