futurebabies 8 - "futurebabies Christmas Dinner"

@ The Mucky Duck, Brixton, London, England 9pm Saturday 1st December 2001

Yet another futurebabies, yet another futurebabies resident's birthday. And our last futurebabies of 2001. So a double celebration. And, fittingly, a great night.

Leading us off was Lefty. He dropped his usual mixture of new bombs and choice cuts, all mixed perfectly for a nice warming up session to get us in the mood. We always know it's going to be a good 'un when there's lots of people there from the beginning, and so it proved.

Next on was the birthday boy himself, Lozza. With loads of his mates in attendance (well done all the West London crew for making it down), it went off a storm. Turning up the beats, the crowd were getting right into it on the dancefloor by now.

Lozza left the decks to our guest for the night, Damian Isaacs. Damian is a regular down at the Mucky Duck and around South London, best known for his nights at the Laundry. So, big thanks to you Damian for bringing your skills. It's always good to get a different vibe, and so it proved. Everyone was loving it, and when he dropped 'Where's Your Head At' by the Jaxx it went right off. Highlight of the night, without a doubt.

Finally, it was left to our last resident, Mr Elbows, to take it through to the finish. He never fails to keep everone grooving to the end. His blend of tougher groovy house always goes down at a treat at the, err, messier end of the night.

So our final night of 2001 was ace. Thanks to everyone who made it down. And thanks for all your support throughout the year. As always, it's your crazy dancing that makes the nights so good!
