"MasterPiece House set from the Legend Andrew Weatherall"
A Social history... in August 1994 The Heavenly Social was born in the basement of a dive bar in Great Portland Street. The Chemical Brothers and quests played for a big handful of weeks in an atmosphere more akin to an amyl-fuelled youth club than a glitzy mid-90's super-club. Since then, The Social has mutated into The Heavenly Jukebox & now Metalbox and is soon to become a licensed establishment in the heart of the West End. It's been a strange, exhilarating, educational, fucked-up five-year trip to get here, but at least the musical policy remains the same - anything good goes, just bring an open mind.
The third Live At The Social' album features two of the country's finest record spinners:
Always exemplary, Lone Swordsman Andrew Weatherall played at one of the first few weeks of The Social. His set stretched from early Mo' Wax through to The Clash. His visits since have been musical voyages into often uncharted territory - primitive drum & bass, unearthly electro-funk & one of Andrew's current preferred directions, deep, deep house music.
Richard Fearless became the second resident DJ at The Social after Tom Chemical broke his leg in a bizarre footballing accident. After playing a set encompassing everything from pounding techno to meandering Brian Auger tracks to howling Iggy Pop vocals, crossing all points in between, Richard had his shoes stolen. For four years, The Social has acted as a testing ground for much of Richards's recorded output as Death In Vegas. He has DJed at Heavenly club nights ever since recovering the shoes.
So here are two very different mixes by two genius DJ's - get yourself stuck in.

RIP Lord Sabre , this was an amazing house mix which just proved that whatever he turned his hand to Andy was on top of his game . I've never been affected by the passing of anyone other than my friends or family & I'm shellshocked over ours & music's loss . I got enlightened by Weatherall after I heard his 1996 Essential Mix one dark October night in 1996 & was hooked ever since . I bought everything the Two Lone Swordsmen produced from then on , although granted post 2000 I grew out of that Electro Funk sound . Anyway back to this mix , my defining memory of Mr W despite all his productions was the last track on this mix (Steve Rachmands Tons of Tones) which is an unbelievable track & literally brings a tear to my eye & I have shed a few in the last few days which is pretty weird I guess . Just take in the last tune on this mix & think of our friend in heaven . Thanks for upload (although it already sits on my iPod) . sorry for the ramble , I'll be off -----peace !

Martin World thank you for the comment and testimony. Exact same happened to me when I was editing this video and listening to this mix that been followed me since 99, I was 18 at the time and it really inspired me and keep doing. But when Rachmands last track started I couldnt hold my tears.

The 90s were the best decade for UK DJ's and dance music. People were travelling, E's were taken by most and everyone got along with mutual respect. No internet, no social media, no anger over nothing. We all went clubbing and we all loved each over. Simple times that I find hard to imagine can ever come again. I honestly feel sorry for the youth of today. I'm so blessed that I am the age I am.

wise words mate, indeed society was much better before all this social media madness and the decay of higher culture. This new generation is doomed. Hordes of zombies without any empathy.

I first got this in 1999, didn’t go much on it, as it wasn’t like vol 1 & 2.. and took it back.. when he passed away one year ago, I got a copy again, I really dig it now, just never give it enough time on first time... CD 2 is very good to... 💿💿👌🏻
