MIX OF THE MONTH 006

Going all the way up the M1 and to where else but the jewel in the Irish holiday crown, Mosney, transformed in to an electronic music playground for 2 special festivals at the turn of the millenium - Homelands! The Irish holiday mecca would see sets from Carl Cox, Judge Jules, Slam, Craig Richards, Paul Oakenfold and a host of others with Irish Djs Johnny Moy and Wicklow man Mr Spring (aka Billy Nasty) flying the flag amongst the headliners of the day. From the people who bought you Home night club in London and Sydney, Homelands festival ran until 2005 under the mean fiddler brand now festival Republic. Hoovers, Groovers and airhorns a plenty - Rewind here to the year 2000 and an absolutely Trance-tastic, classic, era defining mix from the Bray native - Mr Spring.
