Al Storm: The Man With Dark Shadows - Hardcore History Ep13

[@andrewwalczewski343]

One of the nicest guys in the scene, he went out of his way to find me a track he never released on mp3 and only asked for a small donation .

[@stuartkmusic]

He was fantastic through this process and happy to jump in with anything we needed to make this episode happen. He’s a true gent.

[@professorwigg7233]

Holy shit I had no idea he played 6 sets at dreamscape millennium!! I knew no DJs showed but didn’t realise Al Storm covered them all hahaha! What a guy! What a night it was

[@CraigCairney83]

Made some amazing records! Been a big fan since 1997. What a hero!!

[@CraigCairney83]

Hixxy scratching on the Sub Dub remix was a nice wee fact that I didn’t know.

[@djsubuk]

I met him in vinyl frontier in Woking, remember him saying we should go to a rave, he was a year older and we did not think we would get in and he said he had been going for years! from that moment we started going to raves every weekend.

[@stuartkmusic]

Love this. What an excellent raving partner 👍

[@BadOnionUK]

What a wonderful video Stuart! A super portrait of an incredibly interesting career. What an a amazing journey I’ve had with Al all these years. A true diamond, my musical brother. (Mike)

[@stuartkmusic]

Thanks Mike. I might be knocking on your door soon 😉

[@darbomusic]

Brilliant mate ❤

[@stuartkmusic]

Thanks mate 👍👍

[@JustaSuggestionNotaDemand]

Stuart-K Music will never die!!! Thanks for the upload.

[@blakey666]

I've seen Al a few times here in Toronto, he was a huge inspiration for me to start DJing. Love him, he's super nice

[@stuartkmusic]

I can absolutely attest to that. A true gentleman.

[@zacherywalsh]

traveled half way across the USA to see AL Storm and Scott Brown play at a small venue. Their Legends i'd do it again.

[@AvasLittleLife]

Great vid Stu - nice one!

[@stuartkmusic]

You are very welcome ❤️

[@AvasLittleLife]

@@stuartkmusic always thought there was an avenue for history of happy hardcore on YT. Absolutely love that era. I’m a similar age and is great learning what when on behind the scenes. Cheers!

[@stuartkmusic]

@youcancallmenighthawk6219 There definitely seems to be some interest there. I guess people really are as nosy about others as I am 😆

[@kylegawley]

Awesome as always 👌🏻

[@stuartkmusic]

Thanks Kyle, as is Fever 👌

[@Andy_DJ34M_Hiams]

Great video Stu. I think you will look back on these early videos, and even your earlier ones and see how far you have come mate 👍🏽. Always taking steps fwd and improving that content ❤

[@stuartkmusic]

Cheers Andy. It’s always one step at a time with this. As you know, there’s loads to learn 😆

[@djcycles]

I absolutely love vodo Panda so crazy to mix .😜

[@Teddybearkox]

What a legend! Another great episode stuart. Keep it good work man✌️

[@stuartkmusic]

Thanks @trancemusicpl7934. Glad you enjoyed it.

[@Planetugm]

Great video mate and big respect to you for all the effort and time you have gone through compiling all of this stuff! You have definitely set the standard with these videos! Are you on instagram bro?

[@stuartkmusic]

Thanks mate. Yes I’m on Instagram. StuartKMusic there as well 😉

[@acidreflux2182]

Fun fact about Al storm, he hand reared a giraffe that lives in his back garden! He feeds it mainly cakes.

[@stuartkmusic]

😆 I did not see that one coming

[@acidmack1041]

Euphony & Storm - Blinded was and is one of my favourite hardcore tunes...as you mentioned in this video, i was one of those who took a whilst to realise that Al Storm was DJ Storm

[@stuartkmusic]

Blinded is a fantastic track and fair enough. I definitely got the impression he lurked in the shadows for a huge chunk of time with all his uncredited stuff.

[@oldskoolraveruk]

Brilliant video as always . Big up yourself !

[@stuartkmusic]

Thanks @oldskoolraveruk and big up!

[@seed883]

One of the greats, a top class producer. My favorite period was him and Euphony during the 00's

[@jayviperdj]

Great work as always mate. I wonder what this secret news could be? Hmmmm!

[@stuartkmusic]

😆 I have a sneaking suspicion that the cat will be out of the bag soon mate.

[@scott2rave]

Looking forward to seeing you on the 303 podcast Jay is a good friend

[@stuartkmusic]

He’s such a down to earth bloke and we had such a laugh together.

[@SimmyBassline]

Great, in depth video again mate! Noticed a small error, the bass odyssey flyer at 8.01 isnt Dj Storm, its the female Drum and Bass Duo Kemistry & Storm, who are great djs too! RIP Kemistry.

[@stuartkmusic]

😆 whoops. There have been a few “storms” over the years. Thanks for letting me know 👍👍

[@SimmyBassline]

@@stuartkmusic no worries mate, I'm loving this series! It's really interesting, I'm hoping for episodes on Seduction, Ham, Dougal, Druid, Slipmatt, Daydream, Demo please Stu!

[@stuartkmusic]

@SimmyBassline I’ve got them all on the list to do (although you might be able to find one on Dougal & Gammer - 2nd video if I remember correctly) Glad you found us mate 👍

[@SimmyBassline]

@@stuartkmusic yeah seen them all now, was hoping for a fully Dougal centric episode, going into the different acts he was part of, all the unreleased Innovate music etc

[@damiencrowe6098]

Great video as usual.. i didnt realise Dj Storm and Al Storm were the same person. His tunes in the late 90s were very good almost standout in a scene that was starting to go stale... Would you think of some of the older djs like Dj Ramos or Dj Pilgrim??

[@stuartkmusic]

Thanks Damien. Seems quite a few didn’t know it. Ramos is definitely coming soon. Been trying to get round to that one. Hadn’t thought of Pilgrim but now you mention it, that’s a fantastic shout. Let me get back to you on that one 👍👍👍

[@mitchipalms707]

Its funny you mentioned flyer hunting after the Fusion a point to be made album, I've just started collecting flyers and the first one I got was one for the rave they held for it.

[@stuartkmusic]

That’s awesome @mitchymoto3085. I found a few for the Adrenalin raves but not much else. Have you managed to get any real nice flyers in the collection so far?

[@DJ-GOLD-TRIGGER-81]

Wicked !!

[@andrewpowell6851]

Please help what dj used to put a paw print on there vinyl happy hardcore

[@joni.sirvio8867]

stuart. I see youf flyers ans i see you added atleast one kemistry&storm. Thats different storm. Thats woman dj who played Drum n bass..usually with kemistry

[@stuartkmusic]

😆 so I’ve heard. Someone pointed this one out. Slight slip up there 😆

[@dylvasey]

Ah the music that killed real hardcore.

[@captainwashoutkayaking]

MC storm please 🥺

[@stuartkmusic]

Oh, the puppy dog eyes now 😆 I promise, Shane, I’m working on it 😉
