Description
For the eighth episode of Tales From A Disappearing City I am joined by my old mate Simon Brown aka The Dexorcist. We first met at an illegal rave in the mid 90's and instantly bonded over our love of old school electro, acid house and rave culture. In this episode we discuss Simon's formative music years, growing up in Shepperton, listening to jazz funk before discovering electro and the importance of Our Price Records in his musical journey. We take in some Surrey balearic nights and also take a trip, literally to early acid house parties in what were then rundown parts of London by the river. https://www.youtube.com/@ControlledWeirdness https://open.spotify.com/artist/20nC7cQni8ZrvRC2REZjOI https://www.instagram.com/controlledweirdness/ https://controlledweirdness.bandcamp.com/ Theme song is Controlled Weirdness - Drifting in the Streets https://open.spotify.com/track/7GJfmYy4RjMyLIg9nffukt
