Not enough praise is given to those who venture out to set up their own record shop. It can be quite a gamble, even as record sales have continued to rise for the past two decades. In the age of online shopping, anyone who sticks their neck out to open that tries to serve people in a discerning way in the age of Amazon needs to be applauded. We thought it would be good to talk to one such soul who after 25 years as a DJ, promoter and lover of authentic dance music, did so in 2014. Antony Daly has been a stalwart and champion of good music and good times since falling in lov..

Prior to 2020, the majority of dance records not only had a short shelf life, but they also devalued quicker than a Gerald Ratner set of earrings. With dozens of records out each week in the 1990s and an awful lot of them instantly forgettable, it was inevitable that many would be confined to the bargain bins. No scenes are equal, and you are more likely to get more cash for an old techno record than something from handbag house’s heyday. The recent trend has been for indie labels to press fewer than 250 copies due to a variety of factors, with the cost of pressing vinyl an..

Last month we explored some of the most sought after Hardcore Rave and records released in the 1990s. I heard from a couple of fellow record hunters who commented on how much they had enjoyed the article and how it left them mentally searching their collections to see which ones they owned. This time I have scoured Discogs huge database to see which techno records are selling for the highest prices from a scene that began four decades ago.

Who would have thought that some of the white label hardcore rave records from back in the day would go onto be some of the most expensive ones to buy? We decided to highlight some of the records that came out in that pivotal time between 1992-94 to see which ones will cost a small fortune these days.

Summer is just around the corner and that means festival season is almost upon us again. Every year explore the dance and electronic outdoor musical landscape to see what parties are lined up for the coming months. This year I’m starting my festival frolics earlier than normal, especially as the excellent Blue Dot has taken the year off, so I will be visiting the veteran gathering of Bearded Theory to watch Orbital, Ibibio Sound Machine and The Orb. Below are some of the options for those wanting to a few nights dancing under the stars. At the time of writing, these festiva..

We have 313 Day (Detroit Techno) on the 31st of March, 303 Day (TB303) on the 3rd of March, 808 Day (TR-808) on the 8th August; so it should figure a day celebrating seven inch records should take place on the 4th May every year. So to celebrate it we tracked down a few champions of this format and the man who kicked off 45 Day to chat about a format that often sits in the shadow of its bigger siblings the 12 inch and LP Formats. We chatted with the brainchild of 45 Day, DJ Criztoz based in the UK, alongside one of the champions of the festival of vinyl, Klaus Dähn from G..
