Default not too old to boogie..

Hi guys, great site.

i'm 35 and still not too old to boogie! though i'm advised not to by my friends!

Hoping to get a few mixes up and running after a few years in the beer garden.

Got about 1000+ 12"s of 'proper' oldskool acid, house, balearic,italo,rave and techno from 1987 - 1994 that was played back in the day.

Mixing might be a bit grand national but its the toons that count. No cd compilation favourites allowed. Hope to post the first mix in next few weeks.

"if you can't appreciate the past then how can u appreciate the future"

Awesome! I've got vinyls and CDs from those times too, even though I'm not a DJ (yet). Every now and then it's very interesting to listen to the old classics. It would be very cool to get a classic oldskool mix from you!

And remember you're never too old to go

Respect!

You might not be too old, but your going to be branded old now for using the word "boogie"

Welcome along by the way!

Is "electro-boogie" allowed?

So what - I still use the word "Disco Beat" - top that for ancient . I use it to refer to "4/4" as opposed to break.
