Live Lockdown Podcast - Ep 33 - with Mike McDonald

Another instalment of our new brand Dundee Social Club, back at Temple Lan Bar. A great night where we again had a chance to move through the musical genres to an appreciative crowd. Look out for our next night which is a DDE warm up with special guest Tom Simpson (former Snow Patrol). Tom is another DJ who wore the Dark Blue of Dundee Social Club back in the day.

Dundee Social Club is a new night from Dundee duo Billy Morris and Matty Miller. After chatting at a party, they decided to come together and create this new brand in order to play out their shared love of old skool, 80s groovers, funk, soul, house and just about everything in-between. The name comes from a football team that they both played in together for from the age of 9. They are playing in Dundee, it's a social activity and they play in clubs, so it kinda made sense. The new night has been going from strength to strength, playing in bars and events around town. This was our debut in Temple Lane Bar, which went so well they've asked us to be monthly residents. This is part 2 from that night, starting off early with a chilled vibe, some funk and soul and a sprinkling of Prince, leading up to some old skool classics and the odd guilty pleasure. Thanks for listening.

Subhustle asked me to do a mix of the songs I've been playing out lately, so I threw them together quickly and this is the result. Guest mix 09 welcomes Scottish DJ and promoter Billy Morris who has honed his craft over the last 20 years at legendary clubs and events such as Glam, Dare, Colours, The Rhumba Club and STREETrave to name just a few! He very kindly joins the SUBHUSTLE series as we kick off 2023 in style with a fantastic house mix featuring big tunes from Jamie Jones, Inner City, Jocelyn Brown, Chaney, Loods, Sabrina Johnston, Galafunk and more.

DJ RVP asked me name my favourite three tracks of 2022 and create a mimimix with them for his end of year show on Gorgeous FM. Here they are, enjoy.

So I've had a wee break DJing back in the real world and been a little bit too busy to do a stream. I had a gig cancelled this week so thought what better time to do another podcast. Guest DJ is none other than DDE head honcho and good friend Mike McDonald. Expect the usual shenanigans with added features and interviews. As always it's free but you can buy me a pint if you feel that way inclined. https://www.buymeacoffee.com/djbillymorris This one went on for a little longer than intended, a two hour show extended to over 5 hours. I blame the drink.

So I've had a wee break DJing back in the real world but I thought it was time to bring this back due to demand. If it goes well I might start a monthly show, or bi-monthly. This week we have an Easter Special, with DJ Matty Miller. Matty started DJing in 1989 working at various events including: Fat Sam’s, Rhythm Zone, the Venue, Tribal Fusion Tropics, Yabba Dabba and various Sweatbox events. Best known for residency at Sublime at the Edge with Jamie Paton and Paul Ritchie. Soon to be seen reunited again at NOLA for this years DDE. Expect the usual shenanigans with added features and interviews. I usually edit the audio, cutting out the errors and dropouts but lost the naked file due to a technical issue so here is the show in all it's raw glory. Thanks for tuning in.

So, we're back here yet again. After all the lockdowns, restrictions, vaccines and boosters we're back to a festive lockdown. My night Dare! has been cancelled along with 6 of my gigs over Christmas and New Year. So what can we do now? I'll tell you, what we can do, you can tune in my live stream and watch the usual brand of a mixed variety of music, some inane chatter and the slow inebriation of a couple drinking fish bowls of gin. Expect Claire to look glamorous while tripping over cables and the cats to make an appearance too. If you fancy, you can even buy me a pint to help with costs. Entirely voluntary though. https://www.buymeacoffee.com/djbillymorris

We're back. After a full year of live streams I needed a wee break to recharge the batteries but it's time to get back into it. The theme of this weeks show was 'summer vibes' and the most request song in the group page was Club Tropicana, hence the opening edit. Going forward I'll stick to once a month, especially now pubs etc are opening and see how it goes. I've missed you all, even the belters, especially the belters

After the madness of the Birthday Special two weeks ago, it's Episode 29 of the Live Lockdown Podcast. Expect everything from 90's trance, house, old skool, hip-house, electro, 80's pop remixes, vocal house, nu-disco, hi-nrg, club classics, northern soul, Italo house, tech house and everything in between, interspersed with nonsense chat and the occasional rant. Oh, and Claire dancing and tripping over things. This one got a bit messy, even more than previous week's shows so the swear count and drunken rants may be a bit more than usual, apologies in advance for that. Billy says sorry, but Cyril Sneer says "ram it"! Enjoy.
