Whats the good raves these days then?
I have to say after all these years and the amount of parties that Brandon has put himself through how good his memory is, and Danny still is a legend, I worked at Es Paradise back in 2000 when I was 16 starting as a poster boy and meeting Danny for the first time over the road at the cafe and feeling such warmth and comfort from him. I have many great memories from you guys.
Can relate to Brandon and Danny in so many ways regarding Addiction and the club scene ...my Addiction ended in heroin and crack cocaine habits, after going through the complete menu alcohol glue gas acid speed ecstacy and cocaine before ending up on the NASTY ... I been clean and sober for 9 years now and have never looked back ...enjoyed this podcast keep up the good work
Well done brother 👏
well done mate 👊👏💪
@@robwood8331 thank you mate

One of the best podcasts ever. Was glued to it. I didnt miss a word of it. Dont't think I've seen Brandon since seeing him DJ in the 90's. Pleased to see he is still going strong. Hats off lads. Brought back so many memories of the 90s this did. Brilliant. More of this Dodge pls 🙏
I lived in Madrid Spain in 1995-97. Fantastic clubs, and visionary producers. I made my pilgrimage to Ibiza in 1996. Rented a Vespa and had access to the island! Incredible experience! Thanks for sharing guys, brought me right back.
The best podcast ive seen . I was glued to the screen. I could've watched another hour and a half of these 2 legends .
Went to Ibiza in June 1996, still got all the flyers from back then, bought a nice frame and they are on my bedroom wall. What a holiday that was, Es Paradis nearly every night for 2 weeks.
Im 48 years old first started going illegal raves 92,loved going Dreamscape,Helter Skelter,Groove Rider DJ Dougal out our nuts on pills,i played profffesional football became a Heroin and Crack addict,in Recovery now12 step meetings,but my best times was the Raves and Es never ever thought i would become an addict,so happy i have a Solution now been in the rooms a lot of years, brilliant podcast,big up Dan from Essex
Nice one Dan dn I remember all the old school jungle and raves I'm catching you up mate I'm 45 ...46 this year. Well done on your recovery 👏
great to see the fellowship is every where
Hi from thurrock.
Essex x
Snap! So, so many gone down the same road, many not making it this far. The 90s were something special, happy I was there to experience it!!
Brilliant lads massive respect for looking back.... wonderful
Fantastic! I’ve just turned 47 and it was brilliant to hear other stories of “normal” behaviour 🎉 …… the crackle ❤ - goosebumps right there!
What a fantastic watch, great interview. Danny and Block are both legends. 👏🏻
Brandon played a reidency @ Watford - Area nightclub. He was just as enthusiastic as he was all years in the 90's in Ibiza. Big love, kindest regards, as ALWAYS, Richard U.K
One of the best podcasts I've seen. Legends the 2 of them. Love to see people like this cause mayhem but then sort themselves out as well. 👏
I absolutely loved this. One of your best. Well done. Would love to hear from more old school DJ’s etc
Mint as ever..... love it the golden years! Smashed it.
Great Interview, Thanks to all involved.
Laugh out loud funny in places, great interview!
Clockwork Orange at Camden Palace in the mid 90’s. Went pretty much every clockwork event for 4 years. Legendary nights!
Best podcast I’ve listened to/watched in a while👌🏽 great genre of podcast (Ibiza/music)
I still have my copy of Clockwork Orange The Ibiza Experience mixed by Brandon Block and Alex P.
One of the best compilations I've ever heard. 👌😎
That was absolutely outstanding!!! Please get these two back for a part 2 one day.
Flipping funny! That cheered me up no end! Thanks, Dodge 👍
Wow what memories! I've been to every single one of those nights and venues in ibiza and London.
Absolutely amazing experiences and memories. The Cross was one special club, I can remember playing the bongo''s when the chap playing them went to the loo! Camden palace was great.
Back in the day everyone got along and loved everyone else regardless.
❤
God I absolutely loved that! What a fantastic interview 👏 genuinely could listen to you lads rattle on about your history's for another 1.5 hours 😂 loved it! 🙌
Superb episode, quality
One of the best podcasts I've ever listened to. Brilliant
Went to Ibiza 9 times during the mid 90s, quick stop off at The Milk Bar, then the big clubs, this takes me right back. Epic times.
That was a brilliant podcast. Very nice guys and empathetic to others and what can happen in the whole club scene. I hope a part 2 will be in the not to distant future. Lots of best wishes to all of you.
Enjoyed this! Amazing those two are still alive, somebody was definitely watching over them.
looking forward to this one, did Clockwork in Ibiza in '96. For anyone interested, theres a Clockwork Orange night on 9th march at the Emporium in Coalville.
I remember going to see Blocko in Southampton back in the day and he was so out of it he managed about three records and couldn't continue. It's a real shame. With his personality he could have become one of the biggest names in the business, but is remembered more for his partying than his accomplishments in music. That being said, he's found his feet helping people in need, so all power to him.
My first night in the Met in Armagh (Ireland) was a Clockwork Orange party with Andy Manston. Absolutley changed my life! The atmosphere was electric. Will never forget Andy Manston dropping JDS - Nineways, blew the roof off the club. This was a fantastic podcast, thanks v much.
I just missed out on The Arena by a couple of years 😞
Brilliant interview, had me in stitches especially @57:16 about trying to get more gear😂
Glad like many that I witnessed, grew around, and contributed to this rave scene. What a fortunate generation we are🥳
What a brilliant interview. Two legends who’ve been there and done it. And now spreading a message of recovery.
What a great podcast .Both are absolute legends I'm my eyes both then and now ,keep it up, Dodge, yet another top podcast .
This episode was next level this pair are absolute legends. Glad they are both alive and living there best lives still
Another belter loved it. Be good to have a part 2 for both of them on their own, they have got enough memories and stories to listen too. 💙💙
Leave with me 💛
@@DodgeWoodall not trying to blow smoke up your butt but your style of podcasts is up there with the best. You don't jump in or talk over, you don't make it about you and you listen. Kudos to you my friend. 💣
@@kyleynwell said and fair call 👊
That was great lads . takes me back to the good old days . Glad to see you all well and still lovin it . Nice 1 .
I really enjoyed this guys!! It’s not often I listen to a podcast all the way thru.
Really interesting stories, laugh out loud moments and really took me back to those magical Ibiza days.
And how you’ve both turned your lives around from being heavily addicted to drugs to being drug free for 20+ years and now helping others, absolute credit to you, 👏🏼💙🙏🏼
Classic, took me right back!
This was awesome. 👏🏼👏🏼
Best podcaster by a mile.
Good man Paul 💎
Legends of the game and fantastic stories. Great Podcast Dodge and can’t wait for next episode.
Good man Chris and can’t wait to get you on to tell your story 😳👀✈️🔥
Nice one lads, glad to hear you got through it all, it's not an uncommon story either, my mate went through a similar experience but never made it out unfortunately, so keep on keepin' on
Best one yet
Much love guys ✌🏾💙
I absolutely LOVED this podcast! I've subbed for more ❤😂
Welcome aboard 👍🏼👍🏼
Jesus 🤣 this was a rollercoaster! Quality 🤣🤣🤣
So goooddddddd. Loved it ❤
Dodge brought a lot of crazy memories back from Ibiza ,Quality years of the rave scene these 2 were off their heads back in the day.and still are Lol..😂😂😂😂it was great to be part of those times ..
The talks about addiction are spot on. If you make it to the point of enough is enough, having just about survived, you kind of just know that's the turning point and you work on stopping. With me it was 12 years ago. Many many rock bottoms, severe self harm, homelessness, arrests, freinds dieing left and right because of their addictions and mental health etc etc wasn't enough to stop me.
Hitting the point tho was the one. Weird light bulb moment and I just stopped even tho I'd tried a million times before.
12 years of waking up every day sober since then and I fking love it.
Never give up and be gentle with yourselves ❤
Good to see Brandon we go way back way back late 80
And I remember picking up flyers from Danny to ship out to Ibiza ❤️✌️🙏
5 mins in and the Milk Bar is mentioned, loved that place, the security were so professional, always remember those gents as they stood out! ❤️😎
What a place
Sundays at the Milk Bar was just one of those really special places. Von and James Mac as well as Brandon and Lisa of course. Etched in my memory
Absolutely brilliant. Cheers!
This was incredible. You should definitely make a series covering this era.
Known these lads for a large number of years and interviewed them also a number of times, always quality, but some of their early memories here are new to me, well done for the in-depth episode. BTW my other company Flying Squad was founded in 1990 not 97 and the footage in the intro is also my copyright, a nod to that fact would be great. Once again great i/V.
Glad you enjoyed it and I think this could make a good episode going down memory lane.
You fancy coming on the podcast as my guest? 👍🏼👍🏼
If so Please drop me a DM on instagram.com/Dodge.Woodall
All the best 👍🏼👍🏼
As said in the 1st place what an amazing interview with the greatest of peeps,so loved it
Just listened to this. I lived with Danny in the summer of 92 in ibiza. we had memories that I will have for the rest of my life. Space sunday was a must.
Brilliant - glad to see Brandon Block is doing well
Laughed my arse off in parts of this. Thanks as always for a great interview. You've genuinely got a great "knack" of making people feel at ease to open up and follow your gentle leads with subtle questions. Really impressive to be fair. Well done.
Angels in Burnley he was thrown out I was there dam they was good times even the que for that club was fantastic stood for 4 5 or 6 hours to get in the club meeting people from all over the country all there for the same thing FUN brought back some happy memories for me thanks
Brilliant. Loved this. As someone 11 years clean and sober myself these guys are an example of how you really do live your best life sober. Great work Dodge ;)
Enjoyed watching this. Clubbing in the 1990s and early 2000s was great. I went to Clockwork at both The Cross and Camden Palace, and they we were incredible atmospheres. They were amazing times. It just shows though that with enough money and the right access, the clubs and the recreational drugs could easily turn into a nightmare addiction that could ruin lives. I had many great times and in hindsight I'm glad I didn't have loads of money back then. Great to see Clockwork doing well again.
Amazing from start to finish!
Really enjoyed this 👌
Hooked to this one!!!!
Have not laughed they hard for a long time 😂
Amazing interview!
Legendary podcast by two legends. Love it
The best one yet ❤
I spent the season in ibiza, back in 99.
Drugs, women, trance & hardhouse. Man, what a concoction. It was the perfect mixture, lol. The ultimate wild ride.
I'd gone on my own little crusade to find shangri-la, and boy did I find it.😂
Brought back some quality memories 🎉🎉 brilliant podcast.
I’ve got fond memories of meeting Blocko and Alex P in Space and getting an invite to Alex’s birthday party on the terrace I think the day after. In good English fashion I sorted Blocko out with a pill, never forget his dad was there , wearing an Hawaiian shirt. Unbeknownst to us there was an under cover reporter from The Sun in there who captured the whole episode! Realised months later when I was watching a programme about Ibiza and it all flooded back! Good times😂😂
I met Alex P in a hotel in Ibiza, he was friendly, in fairness.
Dogge you the man. I can relate too all of this! Ajax lol. Brilliant thank you
Absolutely loved that 👍
Loved it! 3 great guys who’ve lived epic times 80/90’s and survived to enjoy life in other ways 👍
Great episode mate 👌
Be great to get your subs to ask questions prior part 2 mate, they must be full of Funny stories, I lived in Kavos Corfu for 5 years just being a normal Dj and I’ve got loads, these lads will be off the charts!
My 1st lads holiday was kavos in 2002 good times
Cracking interview, such incredible journeys to get where they are today. Top blokes.
Wicked show Dodge. Couple of legends in the game!
Mid 90’s bloody loved it bagleys hippodrome Camden palace warehouse glasshouse country club lived for the weekends,I swear there was something else in those E’s cause many decades later as soon as I hear an old skool garage tune from back in the day the hairs on the back of ya neck start tingling and it’s almost like I’m back there 👌🏻👌🏻 saw rat pack live and loads of brilliant memories. Respect to you and what you do and respect to these legends great podca dodge keep up the great work 👊🏻🤙🏻😘
Such a great podcast, i'm not even a house head but i've attended a couple of the clockwork events in London and my god these two know how to put on a party! the vibes are amazing
Great listen lads well done on this. I just over 30 and after many Ibiza trips throughout my life I thought it went down the pan when space closed this made me rethink. If only I was born 20 years earlier I would of seen better parties. Fuck me I couldn't live without the internet though 😂. Crazy to think there's thousands of groups of friends who have many stories to tell of their treasured and. crazy memories from their trips to the white isle over years. It's all owed to people like you who started it all ❤️
Brilliant pod this one with the legends I had the privilege to play at some of there parties back in the late 90s and early 00s with ultra vegas in milton Keynes as a warm up dj great times, be good if u could do more pods with some old skool djs 🤝🏻
This has just made my night thanks Dodge
My pleasure and we all had a proper good laugh ✌🏼
Mine too
Brilliant listen .. good to hear there life story and recovery 👍🏻
Brandon once took a drug test and was found to have traces of blood in his cocaine system
Memories now, started at home late 87/88. Few tours of duty to ibiza, canary Islands. Best days of me life.
Love this Dodge....love the boys 🎉
Wow! In parts tragic, in others uplifting. Loved this podcast. Walk down memory lane. Mad
Brilliant podcast had me in stitches 😂
Ha ha this was hilarious! Oh the memories! Subbed! Some honest conversations as well about addiction which was interesting.
Went to clockwork 94 Ibiza and a few years after . They are right about EsParadise , felt special in there. Drove past Es Paradise a few months ago. Like an old dame still standing there. Loads of great memories.
Proper Friday night entertainment that. Dodge, you asked all the questions that I wanted to ask. Nostalgia all the way. All the best, Lads.
Nice one Rich and glad you enjoyed it 💎👍🏼
Quality podcast! Proper OG’s 👌
This is gonna be nuts😂🤘
Love Ibiza 95 and 96 rocked. Can’t remember much but great great times. EP the big lights going mental to the tracks. Loved Yeke Yeke in EP.
Massive congratulations Danny on 20 years amazing mate ❤️✌️🙏
What a cast dodge absolutely loved it ❤
We all love a early night these days 🤣
Love 2 you all x ❤️✌️🙏
What a great listen
Absolutely blinding interview, easily could have listened to another hour and a half. Started raving in 2000 at 17, Ibiza, Helter Skelter, Slammin Vinyl, free parties etc. Had an absolute blast growing up. But defo feel I would have loved to have done it in the 90’s for sure 👌
And fair play to these guys for. It letting that lifestyle grip them and coming out the other side. Big ups
As an oldskool raver . Late 80's early 90's . This ones gonna be good . ❤🎉
I’ve been into house music since about 1990/91 listening to 808 state on sunset 102 then started going to bowlers and finishing up at Sankeys then warehouse project. Always heard of Brandon block but don’t think I’ve ever heard a mix of his, let alone seen him live. He was always well known but he completely passed me by. Not sure who the other guy is
