How to find your tent at night?

The idea of sticking something up on your tent hoping to find it in the night, to me, sounds like an idiot’s game. I’ve been to many festivals in my time and have not lost one in the darkness yet (fingers crossed). Most I’ve been to have selections of morons with pirate flags or “Essex boy’s on toor” or something written on them.

Not for me.

Until

I’ll never get lost again, Just head for Eddie

Future Bound – Sorrow

1996 is the year and some lovely atmospheric jungle here from the Future Bound lads. I only recently worked out the name of this one after hearing it on many Bukem mixes in the mid-90s. Should really get around to picking this 12″ at some point!

Death by chocolate (brownie)

Highly recommended although, in this form, now discontinued, I give you perhaps the finest brownie I have ever had.

Best brownie in the world

I can’t recommend enough the butcher(?!) who made these – Jack O’Shea’s. They also make some of the most amazing baguettes known to man and, even though they’re sitting practically opposite Harrod’s, they’re cheap!

Intense – Time Space Continuuem

Intense, who have written more incredible tunes than you can shake a stick at, here with a wicked ’93 darkside hardcore/jungle track on Rugged Vinyl. Pretty well known track but a real fav of mine. The string section around 3 minutes is just amazing…

Mötley Crüe – Wild Side

UK folks (only?) might recognise this from the adverts for Grand Theft Auto 537, or whetever number they’re up to now. Classic 80s rock from the Crüe, funky little slow bit in the middle and all. Listen for the really crap keyboards(?) that come in on the fade out. Odd.
