The Hot Mix 5 are an American DJ team originating from Chicago, Illinois, who were chosen by WBMX Program Director, Lee Michaels in 1981. The founding members were Farley "Funkin" Keith (later known as Farley "Jackmaster" Funk), Mickey "Mixin" Oliver, Ralphi Rosario, Kenny "Jammin" Jason, and Scott "Smokin" Silz.
Many know Detroit's Belleville Three were the originators of Techno, well these guys definitely built the foundations of House Music as far back as 1984!!!

What an awesome crowd we had last night at Venue23 for The Orbit & Revisited: we'd like to thank you all for coming along and making it such an amazing night. After trying to convince The Orbit to collaborate for a year or two, we finally made it happen and although it wasn't the venue or line up they would have gone with, I'm sure they agree that our 'Dream Line Up' smashed it at what turned out to be the perfect place.
As soon as doors opened at 7:30pm, it started to fill up nicely for Dj Lightfinger's banging set, long time resident Nigel Walker followed with a set that showed why After Dark was so iconic. By 9:30pm, the place was jumpin as you can see in this video with Huggy raising the roof with his buddy & Leeds' finest, Rob Tissera keeping an eye on proceedings.
Shades of Rhythm came on just before 11pm, how much further can this crowd be lifted? Well, the boys brought the house down with a set of the biggest anthems and when DJ Sy came on, they were all buzzin and went mad to 100 minutes of anthem heaven. Dave Angel finished the night with 2 hours of the hardest Techno sounds covering the historic years of this legendary club, making this a reunion of a few hundred friends that can never be repeated again!
What the youth of today don't realise is just how close everyone was back in the day, the clubbing experience of 30 years ago was so encapsulating and that showed last night with hardly a mobile phone in sight.
