id love to know what producers he plays, i love seeing a dj when u are overwhelmed by the selection of music and scratch yer head to even think were he dug these gems from, i cant even begin to think
any examples of producers from this style?

i wouldnt worry about it, if you see the amount of CD's clarke takes out when playing there will be tons like this. He charted a track of Humphries that was on a record i was on with him on Native Diffusion and he just titled it CDR next to the track name, as long as the tracks being played thats the main thing
ehhh? Urban and Funk shite?Quote:

and who hasnt totally lost it to Run Uk?
tbh, chart/club play by big dj's rarely does anything for sales anyway. I think it's more of a profile-booster or a nice personal achievement.
I wasn't a fan of run uk.Quote:

Dave Clarkes Fuse cd was the ish.
But Run Uk never did it for me.Dj Deeons Da Dik SUk is more classic than that one to me.
I couldn't understand Run UK at first either. But after the hype wore off and a few years later, I like it. It's not my favorite track but I think it's an adequate tool that is fun from time to time. It was like the rave anthem of the year over here for a while.
always been a big fan of DC tunes and sets. Always seems to find excellant tuneage on labels i have never heard of.
ive been thinking the same for the past 5 or so years. where the hell does he get some of those tracks that he plays? a lot of it does have to do with the way he presents the track though.Quote:

maybe il just flick through some of the old bissmere and funk stuff
When Clarke did the Essential Mix in '99 there was a track on the Radio 1 listings down as 'Spank 3' - Unknown label. I tried for ages to track it down but with no joy so as a last resort emailed Dave. He replied telling me it was actually Punish 3, I found it the next day!
no way! me too :lol:Quote:
