David Holmes all day and all night long!!!!
He did wonders for Clooney and his pals movies and if you ever get chance get hold of the David Holmes Essential mix – very cool & very eclectic.

Also his album ‘Let’s Get Killed’ – a stone cold classic!

hi guys,

Mexican Institute Of Sound or Instituto Mexicano del Sonido
have 2 albums out:

1. Mejico Maxico
2. Pinata

both are superb eclectic mish mashes of loungey, dancey beats

I love them both!

I totally agree, especially when you go back and listen to Fatboys On The Floor At The Boutique – absolute heaven!!! I think thats why I liked his Electric Proms / annie Mac big beat set last year, I love the electicism of it all, as opposed to rigid genre based sets. Does anyone remeber a 1997 big beat mix cd called something like Brit Hop & Amyl House – it had Sam Server / Fried Funk Food on it – classic!

Big Beat should be revived and kept alive in spirit every year as far as I’m concerned, I just loved the craziness and mixed mayhem of it all. The Chemicals still keep the seed alive occasionaly and I came across that act Kids In Tracksuits – they’re very big beat esque. Worth a listen.

You’re Not From Brighton is a defo underated FBS tune in my mind.

The Real Shit from his Fried Funk Food early days is still a firm favourite of mine.
It’s a shame all that Fried Funk Food stuff didnt get compiled because I’m sure they were 2 eps, one was a stand alone ep and the other was packaged alomg with a freakpower album if I recall correctly.

Keep it Slim!
