FRIDAY 13 FEBRUARY - INTERDANCE REUNION - TOP BUZZ The Official Inter-Dance Reunion! Featuring RATPACK, TOP BUZZ, Craig The Joker Miller, Anbrey, Hixxy, MC Whizzkid & more! Price: £8 earlybird or £10 b4 11pm. 9pm to 4am.
Top Buzz started out as Patrick and Michael, better known to many as Mikey B, that was back around December 1988. Back then things were much different to today, I’m referring to the scene in general, it was still in it’s early stages and people were only just experiencing the friendly atmosphere that Rave had to offer, this was what appealed to both Patrick and Mikey at the time. Patrick was on the decks back then, as was Mikey, but Patrick couldn’t mix at all, so after a few words on the mic which seemed to go down well, he decided to stay on the mic as an MC. Jason Jay came along after about a year, so there were then three of them in the team although many people only thought there were the two, Mikey and Jason used to DJ when they were available to play, sometimes taking it in turns. The first real break for Top Buzz came when Amnesia House went to Rage, they gave Amnesia a tape and soon after were booked to play in Coventry.
After that things just went from good to better, the Top Buzz name spread around and soon they had appeared on numerous flyers, including Fantazia at Donington Park, Universe and Obsession, to name only a few. Patrick soon became known throughout the scene for his lyrics. The Top Buzz show was exactly that, a Top Buzz! I remember travelling right across the country many weekends just to follow them around. As soon as they came on stage you recognised that distinctive style, and the rest, well that’s history. In 1994 they released ‘Living In Darkness’, which was without any doubt an anthem of the scene. Still playing that track today brings back floods of memories and still gets the crowd rocking as much as it ever did.
But as with most good things in life, all good things must come to an end. The three people behind Top Buzz eventually fell out, for personal reasons as well as business. Perhaps it proves that it is always best if you don’t mix business and pleasure. Patrick continues to MC at events, MC’ing over all of the respected Jungle DJ’s on the circuit, he still even MC’s over Jason Jay, which brought back fond memories at a Dreamscape event no so long ago. Patrick also hopes to release a track one day with his vocals on and take it to No. 1 in the charts. He has always felt that it was the vocals that could take the scene further by giving it the exposure it deserves. In the commercial market, this has been recently proved with the commercialisation of Jungle music through tracks that contain vocals, Jason continues to DJ, so does Mikey B, (for those of you confused up in Scotland, this isn’t the Mikey B that you all know so well for Techno, they just happen to have the same name!) but work for them all is slower than when they were together as a team, but at least they are now their own entity, they can be respected for what they are and what they do, so at the end of the day it will be their ability to perform that will provide them with longevity in the scene of today. Only time will tell.
In a small up date, Jason Kaye & Mikey B have now been reunited after Mikey B spent a period in prison. They now once again perform at many of the Old Skool events as Top Buzz..... Including at Obsession at the Brunel Rooms in 2004.
