Bill Brewster @djhistory.bsky.social joins us for the last RMDC episode of the year, in which we take a look at a chart from May 1979: a time when disco had never been bigger, and nobody knew that a backlash was on the way. shows.acast.com/record-mirro...

RIP Brigitte. Her and Serge created magic together. youtu.be/kmOMJHAlvL0?...

Just done a new Xmas mix on @Patreon. You need to sign in or subscribe to access it (you can subscribe for free though). patreon.com/billbrewster

RIP to Balearic king Chris Rea. So many tunes in his catalogue that have wound up on Ibicenco playlists or UK dancefloors. One of the Boro’s greatest sons. Ciao Chris xxx www.youtube.com/watch?v=BI_U...

Our final Low Life at Corsica Studios, which is (sadly) closing in March. We’ve brought back some disco heavyweights for it, too, including Matthew & Jolyon and Bruce Tantum. ra.co/events/2325952

You can listen again to my NTS from Tuesday here: www.mixcloud.com/NTSRadio/low...

@djhistory.bsky.social sure I’m not the first to point this out, but the Sade remix (an edit at least) came on this old Red Hot comp redhot.bandcamp.com/album/red-ho...

I’ve upload a bunch of Michael’s live sets from Low Life. They are here: soundcloud.com/billbrewster...

I’m back on NTS today at 1pm (UK time) with the usual big vibes and soul bangers. Join me. www.nts.live

Our good friend and former Low Life rezzie, Michael Cook, took his own life a week or so ago. My oppo Frank Broughton has written a tribute to him. You can read it here: djhistory.com/read/michael...

Just heard that Jack Barron has passed away. He’d been very ill for 5 years with a rare form of vasculitis, but had held on somehow, until now. Arguably the first rock writer on the weekly inkies to throw his lot in with acid house, he was funny and illuminating. RIP.

Spent most of last week at this event in Pakistan. Thanks to the @britisharts.bsky.social for bringing me out to participate. Very inspiring to be among so many passionate local musicians, DJs, promoters and producers. bloompakistan.com/soundscape-p...

We are now trying to do most of our DJhistory podcasts in glorious Technicolour and here’s the first one, featuring Greg Wilson (next up Jamz Supernova). Subscribe to the Material music channel for further cinematic epics. www.youtube.com/watch?v=H3Qk...

Shabana Mahmood is wrong - Another cowardly attack on immigrants does not hide the incompetence of the Starmer government. Me, for the @newstatesman1913.bsky.social www.newstatesman.com/politics/uk-...

DJ history podcasts. In the bag, Greg Wilson. We're starting to film some of them too, so keep your eyes peeled on YouTube. first one is Greg, then Jamz Supernova, old-skool, nu-skool.

Give this a listen, from the late 1960s through to today, this guy has done it all.

Sets from last Low Life now up. Next party (final one at Corsica sadly) is on 14th Feb, 2026. Tickets on sale start of December. soundcloud.com/billbrewster...

Got the very sad news that Dave Ball has died. I still remember the awe of hearing Memorabilia for the first time in Leeds Warehouse in 1981. The man who reimagined northern soul with synths, made a mad solo tune and loads of great gear as the Grid. RIP. www.youtube.com/watch?v=tHNC...

Shout out to @djhistory.bsky.social for unearthing my old Mystery Mix which I recorded back in 2009. I can't remember exactly what's on it, and I don't think anyone on the DJH forum worked out the full tracklist, but it's a jazz-rock-prog-avant-funk kind of affair www.mixcloud.com/djhistory/dj...

djhistory.com/read/jeff-yo... Jeff Young let the music play - DJ History. @djhistory.bsky.social Great interview, and what a legend. The Show Doug E Fresh really changed things. Remeber it being played at Zeros, and converted me to hip hop!

THIS SATURDAY!

Was a treat for me and @ryanharkness.bsky.social to get to interview @djhistory.bsky.social and Frank Broughton to close out the first TechnoRoll series. Listen here: letitrollpodcast.substack.com/p/technoroll...
