- This video has been passed over to me by a good friend of mine, his name is, Ruairi Cahill, he filmed, produced and edited this documentary. Hope this brings back those magic memories, and goosey tingels, Big Love, respect to each and every one of you for helping me to experience the vibe of the dance floor X
There was no scripting and it was filmed in one take. Music provided by Dj Nick Sheldon, spot on mix Nick thumbs up.....
The Shelleys Laserdome story runs deep in the blood of UK clubbers. It's 1990, the young people of an industrially battered area of the city, Longton, form a fresh revolutionist reality. A revolution of love, which out of it blossomed a golden dawn of dance music culture in the city. An underground pact of music and togetherness was established, places were the people could break free from the scorns of Thatcher's Britain were exploding all over the UK. Shelleys was one of these unique clubs, its impact shaped a generation of life, love, success and controversy, a defining moment in the cities history.
A 2015 Interview with Amnesia House / Entropy resident DJ, Daz Willott, paints an emotionally charged picture of an explosion of the club scene that transformed the then 23year old man's life and the whole of the UK by storm. Celebrating 25 years of Shelleys as an iconic part of UK club culture, Funk-Soul Media portrays the Shelleys 25th Reunion Party visuals in a heart pacing, raw documentary style.

I remember the shop changing over a week. Justin Carr and Smurf on the decks. Was an Instropective junkie! Looking forward to the Shelley's 30th celebration 😁
Yea massive change over for its when the penny dropped 🤣 and everything else did and I became a full on house acid house lol

I was there many nights including the night where N-Joi played, used to sleep in the car in the carpark after until the sun came up then drove home in a haze, those were definitely the days
We're did you drive from ?😊
@@djdazwillott808 We drove from Redditch which was about 65 miles away
Never got to Shelley's but I did make it to Valentino's one night back in 93 and that was amaze balls!!!
Valie's you say??
... Cafe Moonshine???
Your name's not down, your not coming in! Ha-ha happy days
For a mainstream meat-market club they did honour the proud tradition of Potts dance heritage.
Jollees.. Shelley's... Entropy... Amnesia House... Club Kinetic... Golden... Valie's... The Void ... Ritzy's... The Place... Zanzibar... Maxim's... Renaissance... and ooo eck what was that club up 'castle (opposite the multi storey) that Boy George was resident at for a while??? Time & Space??
Whatever happened to those glory years, to the misery of now??
I'm off drop some poppers in the hope Altern-8 are doing a set I'm the car park... then driving down to Westport Lake to see which Cossie or Nova had the best bass bins to keep the choons rollin till dawn.....
Time & Space was the Gallery first mate,that was rockin as well.👊
LEGEND DUCK miss your sets take care😜
Bless, and ii do have a mixcloud account if you would like the link ?
From Coventry up to Shelley's, then on to Quadrant Park ♥️
man it was nuts the vibe. i was at the altern8 night as well although i dont remember... going to the services after asking people for rizla's lol. but one winter we drove from buxton and got stuck in the snow after. ended up staying overnight in a police station and got invited into the police canteen in the morning to have some breakfast as the roads were shut. we were still high as kites and sat next to uniformed coppers eating food pretending we werent hammered. mad days.
One thing is the memory it only seems like yesterday. Thanks for sharing your memories. The things we did to get to the venue we loves ❤️ 👍
