Trauma:Aberdeen

While looking through a box of various stuff rescued from my mother’s attic, i came across three flyers for the now long and sadly defunct Aberdeen techno club;Trauma.
I spent many a night attending many memorable club and party nights up in sunny Aberdeen with the mad for it Trauma crew,seeing acts like EgeBamYasi,Tobias Schmidt,Steve Glencross,David Holmes Evil Eddie Richards,Twitch of Pure and Optimo fame.
For anyone else who remembers some great nights and good people….

Hardfloor-Acperience

Hardfloor are a German duo,Oliver Bondzio and Ramon Zenker,as well known for their remix work as their own music.Acperience is almost certainly their most famous track,i remember first hearing it at Pure ,the legendary Edinburgh club.For months i had no idea who it was or what it was called,my mates and i simply called it,’that track’,and everyone knew what you meant when you said it.The dj’s at Pure seemed to be the only ones who had it,i don’t remember hearing it anywhere else,they seemed to play it almost weekly.It always got a very enthusiastic reaction.
Didn’t seem to matter where you were or what you were doing in the club,when folk heard that kickdrum/hi-hat/bass intro,they were off onto the floor,by the time the woodblock and the high drone tone comes in,the floor was heaving,then that massive snare roll into the double cymbal crash and the place was well and truly jumping.
Acid House was never quite the same again.
Also worth a listen is Lost In The Silver Box,another of their 303 workouts.
Both from the album TB Resuscitation.
