Definitely spent many a night in the club. Always had the same drive as third to hear shit that's gonna bend my mind a bit. Never quite got as deep down that rabbit hole as he did though. Also not my sole objective. Definitely have a big appetite for the soulful side of things too. Osunlade changed my 'breaks only' perspective in my mid 20s and I never looked back. Househead for real. But often the problem was that I didn't have the right people to point me in the direction, so it was mostly a solo mission trying to get the knowledge. The Internet made all that much easier of course. But there's still many layers of the onion that even the nerdiest of nerds can't find their way into without some kind of of kindly guide willing to let you in on the real shit. With Facebook groups and all that this is becoming less and less true though. I mean there's so much amazing info out there right now. It's almost rude not to play amazing sets. No excuse. Wang was an eye opener. Pretty mental. Some of the warp halloween parties were great too. Briefly talked to aphex at one. I think I just got from a young age that there was this kind of clandestine coven of music knowers who if you were lucky to catch them you'd get to hear all this amazing shit that sounded like a secret, and then made it my duty to seek that shit out. But without like-minded heads to bounce knowledge off of its a slog, but def well worth it for the discovery of a whole new portal. Still happens now and then. I think if I was less introverted around people I look up to musically I probably would be way more in on all that shit at this point. I mean, I mostly went clubbing solo tbh. And I prefer it that way. Other people always felt like a bit of a hassle, I'd be too self conscious and I couldn't let loose with getting all sweaty and into a frenzy as I like to. Asbergers definitely plays a part in this fwiw. But I feel like at 35 I might have grown a little bored of clubbing. In its current state at least. Maybe if I could replicate a few of my old stomping grounds I'd be all in, but there's something that doesn't quite do it for me now. And I think it's me as much as the clubs. Age.
