The podcast for those with one foot in the rave. If you love dance music and electronica but feel like you're too old for clubbing (honestly though, you're not), let Scott Manson, James Kirkham and Tunde Babalola take you on a music and memories tour of acid house, rave and club culture. Featuring interviews with dance music legends, amusing tales of excess and way too much fanboy talk about Sasha – plus huge tunes from the rave archives – this is a nostalgic journey through one of clubland's most exciting eras.

    Featuring big tunes that include Don Carlos 'Alone', Liberty City 'Some Lovin', All Boxed In 'Happen' and many more. Plus a load of club culture chat from three men who still hit the dancefloor occasionally even though they're really old enough to know better. The show also sees discussion of the brilliant band Crazy P, whose frontwoman Danielle Moore died in September 2024. The Pipe and Slipmats team has seen her perform many times over the years and, like the rest of the dance music community, will miss her energy, showmanship and talent. RIP Danielle. Big thanks also to Finn for the editing and post-production. x
