This takes place tomorrow night at Santo's Party House. Prime Time residents are James Fucking Friedman and Eamon Harkin. Guest of honor is the legend Greg Wilson, officially ridden for by AC. This is dancing time for dancers.
Greg uses records and his trademark Revox B77 tape recorder.
Were the reader to venture over to Eamon's website, well-mixed delights would be found there, including a mix by Greg Wilson recorded live at Space in Ibiza, and an ill early-house mix by Eamon. Also look for his contribution to the laudable Wurst edits series.

Adriano Celentano - "Prisencolinesunaciusol"
WE, reader, are only a blog. We cannot make you read us, we cannot make you add us to your RSS feed. We cannot make you check us out intermittently on your iPhone. WE cannot tap almost imperceptibly at your window every night for several hours, in order to send the disturbing signal to your unconscious mind that we know where you sleep.
WE can only do so much. But, reader, if you choose on your own to step within the bounds of the line-drawn sand that marks what we can do, then that is another story entirely.
WE cannot make you watch this clip, or enjoy it. This bothers us. It bothers us that you reader are still allowed to decide for yourself. Because, were it up to us, not only would you have no choice in the matter, a lack of enjoyment of this clip would as well be officially recognized as a symptom of a mild personality disorder.
Celentano, an Italian, sings, as do his back-up vocalists, in a language wholly of his own devising. In an interview, he said that making a song that reckoned with incommunicability was a result of 'modern life, where no one understands each other anymore'. You don't need to be a graduate student to pick up on a whole other kind of understanding and communication that's going on in this song, so invigorating is it that sea urchins and lichen are responsive to it - remember in Ghostbusters 2, when they play that song that makes the ooze dance in the toaster? Same thing. Oh and Prisencolinwhatever is supposed to mean "universal love".
