Gym soundtrack for today: DJ Revolution – Class of 86 After posting about #DJRevolution’s Class of 87, I had to rewind a year and check out his 1986 version. Yet again, Rev serves up an absolute masterclass on here. The King of the Decks never misses!! Essential listening 👑#djrevolution #classof86

I’m unable to go to this tomorrow afternoon and have a table for up to 5 people available for anyone that can use them. Normally £80, yours for free. It’s at The Blues Kitchen in Manchester. Starts at 11:45am. The band are fantastic and deejays on too!! www.designmynight.com/manchester/r...

I absolutely love a music documentary & this is one I’ve been super hyped to check out!Tonight’s the night for SLY LIVES! (aka The Burden of Black Genius) directed by Roots drummer & Oscar-winning filmmaker, the one & only @questlove.bsky.social. It’s on #DisneyPlus so make sure you check it out!

Gym soundtracks for today: DJ Revolution – The Breaks In High Fidelity & The ABC’s of High Fidelity I’m going for a double whammy of two of my favourite mixes by the king of the decks, #djrevolution! This definitely ticks all the boxes for me and invents a few more for good measure!! Essential! 👑

Had a great weekend, with a lovely meal for Lorna’s birthday/Valentine’s Day (followed by an impromptu day drinking session) & yesterday’s final Workinonit at The Hip Hop Chip Shop. After a couple of days of drinking, what better way to get rid of the hangover than getting out for a decent walk ❤️

It’s the last #Workinonit at The Hip Hop Chip Shop from 2 - 9pm tomorrow. As sad as it’s going to be, it’s also a chance to celebrate everything that #thehiphopchipshop has done for the community in Manchester & beyond. Much love to Ozzie & the crew. Let’s show our appreciation the right way! 🙏🍩❤️🎵

Yesterday I booked tickets for my nephew & I to Europes Largest #BBQ Championship #FUME which is coming to Manchester in July!

Gym soundtrack for today: Cymande - Renascence I posted last night about the fact that I’ve managed to get tickets for the #Cymande world tour this October so I thought I’d give their recently released album another spin this morning. Are any of you going to their Manchester date? Let me know 👌

I’m absolutely over the moon to have got my tickets for Cymande this October at Manchester’s Albert Hall. I never thought I’d get the chance to see them live so this is gonna be a special one!! This world tour only has two stops in the UK, so I couldn’t miss this iconic reunion! #Cymande #Renascence

Last week I had a little #ebay dig and stumbled on a couple of 45 bundles with some choice bits & pieces in there (Eric B & Rakim, De La Soul, Coldcut, Silver Bullet, Beasties, Run DMC).
