Early ’91. After Shelley’s. A service station, a ghetto blaster blasting Playing With Knives, and three ravers caught mid-moment by Tony Davis. An era frozen in time. These were the nights that shaped us. Long live the rave. 🔊 #RaveCulture #90sRave

Classic winter tune 🤍

youtu.be/TFqRrrHBs7Y?... Please, listen & download this song on whichever streaming service you use. My friend lost her beautiful son Beck to brain cancer at just 15. He was at school with my Edie. Her talented daughter sings the lead vocal on this track so it's extra special. #fuckcancer

Not sure how you come back from losing a child but if this brings some comfort I think it’s a good idea xx
