Paul Taylor

The History of Retro

Retro the UKs original and largest celebration of house music started in 1989 as the last hour on a Friday night at Angels in Burnley. Back then Angels was one of the UK's most influential club and one of the country's best kept secrets.

Paul Taylor the creator never wanted the exposure and fame that some of the other 'trendy' clubs seemed to attract ashouse music exploded into the world dance scene - his philosophy was 'the bigger you get the harder you fall' and for that reason alone Retro today ironically stands tall as the UK's most attended club event.

Back in 89 house music was in its infancy, there was the acid house sound coming out if America, the Italians were starting to push the rhythmic power and warm keys of the piano. Early hip hop was also big and it made the Retro sound what it was - anything worked as long as it was good.

Paul Taylor was into 'dance' when he started DJing back in 1974 playing northern soul, Tamla Motown and Jazz Funk all on 7 inch singles and album vinyl of course and to this day he has never played anything other than vinyl - he hasn't a clue how to use any other form of playing dance and quite frankly doesn't give a shit about technology. He believes that technology is actually destroying the clubbing experience.

By 1991 (Paul's favourite year in dance) Retro became of age, it was now a regular monthly at Angels on a Saturday and had started touring mainly in Lancashire. House fanatics were travelling to see and feel the buzz in a big way very similar to the Northern Soul scene in the early 70's. In fact Retro and Angels popularity was so huge at one stage the local police had to block off the main roads coming into Burnley because the 1000 capacity club was knocking back another 1000 punters that couldn't get in - all this by 9.30pm - pandemonium but what a blast, they had to fight like hell to keep their license - they did and they continued.

Paul recognised the power of Retro when the night was pulling in more crowds than some of the big names of the era Cox, Sasha, Tong, Oakenfold, Healy, Boy George and so on, this was around 95/96 and we decided to really concentrate on putting Retro on in venues outside Lancashire including regular events in the North of England, Scotland and then on to Ibiza, Majorca and Holland and the rest as they say... ...is history.

Paul says there has always been the term 'Old School', but we have re-invented the term for club classics. Retro is about quality house music, it's a dictionary term that has no relevance to dance music and our biggest challenge was to educate 'our dance public' what Retro was about and today there is no doubt in our followers minds exactly what Retro is - its another way of describing the epitome of what is a cracking night out, without hype without wanting to be anything more than what we are -we love what we do and we love house music, we love the incredible atmosphere our event creates and most of all we love our punters it's a love of music thing.

And long may the passion continue!

Message From Paul

THERE'S A BUZZ IN THE AIR!

The weeks are flying by again and I’ve just had a top weekend. Retro at Space was very busy with Retro heads a plenty from all parts of the North of England spreading love on the dancefloor and there is ALWAYS an intimate atmosphere in this great club. I have to say though that I’m glad I made the decision to not play THIS next weekend, I’m overly busy in the office over the next couple of weeks making sure that our birthday month in November goes off as smoothly as possible, especially at the flagship event at Trees. So this weekend it’s a no club zone for moi.

Tickets for Retro @ Trees are now available through the normal outlets and via Skiddle.com, my advice is to purchase a ticket because numbers are limited on the night due to the fact that the Alexander Suite is a no go area due to a private function. Please remember that we are restricting ALL the outlets to a maximum £1 booking fee. Early bird tickets have now sold out. Please may I also remind you that when you purchase a ticket from an outlet you will automatically be handed your FREE ticket for the big Retro celebrates the New Year event on Saturday the 2nd of January 2010. If you buy a ticket online OR pay on the door on the night you will also be handed a free ticket at the clubs reception desk, this way everyone will receive their golden ticket for this event.

As you enter the club on the 20th birthday celebrations you will receive a voucher which entitles you to a another freebie, a double pack CD live recording featuring myself and Ben Taylor recorded from our Ibiza/Majorca reunion party earlier this month, you can hand this into the Retro Shop based in the reception area on your way out, this alongside INNER CITY playing a full live set makes this event a must for every Retro lover out there!

New Years Eve 2009/2010 We are proud to announce that this year Retro will hold for the first time its NYE bash at the SYNDICATE in Blackpool with myself, Ricky Isted and Ben Taylor. Making this event a bumper package will include Godskitchen featuring Judge Jules, Matt Hardwick, John Askew, Activa, Richard Turner and Jason Fubar. Early bird tickets are now on sale via blackpool.thesyndicate.com at ONLY £10 sqids, sounds like bargain of the year to me, obviously the ticket price will increase after the early birds sellout (500 I think) but only up to £15/20, more on the door. My advice is to grab them at this stage while you can. Should be a blast though!

Ok I’m off into the studio to work on the new Loveland single.

YEP!

We have put a new song up for you, it’s only a rough demo which hasn’t really been mixed well and hasn’t been produced but it will give you a taster of what may come next in our next recording sessions which we are trying to set before Christmas.

Enjoy! It’s called 'Stop'. Please tell us what you think.
