Hi Heva! Hope life is treating you good. Nice to see an old face back!
Must have come as a mighty good surprise if you hadn't been lurking around here like the rest of us and just stumbled upon it.
Wishing this move will restore offtopic back to its former glory.. still early days.
Shot in the dark - would you be knowing of Charlie's whereabouts?
yellooooo exotic!! Ye good to be back! Hope life is good with you!
And nooooooooo I've not been in touch with Charlie since off topic died.....I wonder where he is.....??

You didn't imagine it. Mars removed the old Off Topic since he believed it was the reason why the forum was hacked. Mars has since relinquished control of the forum to Insejn and RTP, who created the new Off Topic forum on the 4th of April.
Good to see you again, Heva. How are you?
Yesh yesh I remember when OT was so cruelly taken away from us! So good to see it back! Hopefully it will bring some of the old familisr faces out of the woodwork
And...Sir Rotwang I am mighty fine thanks, currently floating around New Zealand like the littlest hobo pondering the meaning of life. As you do. How's you??

Thought I'd start a thread of folks all time favourite tunes, those random tracks from times gone by that pop into your head (or indeed new releases that are particularly fat)
In a moment of nostalgia....today I remembered this track...

~ Chapter XXI illumiNaughty’s “ReWired” ~
:: 23RD APRIL 2010 (10pm - 6am) ::
~ THE RITZ BALLROOM, MANCHESTER
As illumiNaughty approaches its 4th year ~ 23rd April will be our most ambitious party yet. From baby steps at The Zoo our dream has evolved dramatically to a fully fledged theatrical stampede! Digital delicacies from live-footage visuals, interactive installations, Guerrilla Goblins news and suspended TV sculptures will amuse and engage the wits. So with mile wide smiles, we cordially invite you to Bring the Bedlam once more, helping us celebrate a MOMENTOUS occasion the only way we know how….WITH A BANG!!!
illumiNaughty’s “ReWired” guarantees to blow fuses and make senses short-circuit with even more interactive elements than ever before. Media (mis)information and propaganda will be aired and seasoned with the usual sprinkling of satire and subversion. Techno-toys will be on hand for you to play with, ‘illumiNaughty TV’ broadcasted and the crowd handed the controller in a TeleVisual spectacle on a grand scale!
Switching Off and Stepping Out we’ll transmit a dazzling display of music, video and performance to Shatter Assumptions and Kick Convention in the kisser! All accompanied by a splendid soundtrack including a return of international psy-trance heavy-weights Talamasca (Mind Control Records, France) and the mighty Rinkadink (Alchemy Records, South Africa), whose sets left such an impression at previous illumiNaughty events we were left gagging for more!! Added to this will be hefty doses of some of the UK’s finest psytrance dj’s and of course our very own in house residents!
See?! There’s no excuse!! Switch off the box, prize yourself from the sofa, put your glad rags on and help us make the only channel worth watching!!

CHAPTER XIX ~ illumiNaughty’s “ReSurrected”
:: 5th February 2010 ::
~ The Chapel, Wilmslow Rd, Manchester ~
As the old saying goes, we wicked folks have had no time to rest and 2010 is already shaping up to be our most ambitiously miscellaneous yet. Future schemings include a migratory jaunt to Leeds on 19th March and our 4 years young at the Birthday Bonanza at the Ritz 23rd April…
BUT firstly, we’re proud to announce our return to a favourite stomping ground of ours, Wilmslow Rd’s The Chapel! No-one was as gutted as us to hear last year that Manchester’s most intimate musical abode could no longer be licensed as a venue. After waving a wistful goodbye to this bizarre little building last October, low and behold the powers that Be have given it another three months grace! And so, illumiNaughty will gladly stomp through the hallowed doors once again on the 5th February to begin a season of events dubbed “The Chapel Experiment”.
Can we get a Ha-lle-luuuuu-jah!!

Love n Chaos -
After months of plotting and planning, it’s very nearly here...this Friday, the distinguished Ritz Ballroom will once again mutate into a mystical threshold and illumiNaughty will run riot in a clamorous and glamorous concoction of colour and chaos!!
Chapter XVII ‘The Summoning’ has been carefully crafted to create a night of psytrance combining the magic of dark and morning music in true illumiNaughty style! We’ll be using a spankingly lush new soundsystem and welcoming a selection of the finest artists, dj’s, performers and visual master-minds to join us on our adventure. Not only that we’ll be dishing out a FREE Vibe Tribe CD to the first 100 folks through the door we’ve re-designed the entrance so no more long queues to get in!! :]
So join us as we serve the perfect perk-up potion for winter blues and push the boundaries of traditional parties with a manic menagerie of sights and sounds!

19 September 2009:
illumiNaughty Chapter XVIII (12am – 8am)
Last show at the Chapel! Discoteka LIVE Sabretooth LIVE and more…
Hark The Heralds Goblins Sing!! IllumiNaughty returns to the Chapel Again!!!
After what proved to be a blissfully bizarre gathering of Biblical proportions last May IllumiNaughty cordially invites you to congregate with us for one last time at The Chapel, Wilmslow Rd.
On the 19th Sept we’ll throw a party to rumble the heavens in a farewell celebration to Manchester’s weirdest House of Worship. Unfortunately The Chapel will be forced to close its doors soon as a venue so it seemed only right to us to bid this quirky building the goodbye it deserves. So Naughty Panda, Religion and IllumiNaughty formed an unholy trinity and will showcase a series of suitably twisted send offs over the course of one explosive month. In this intimate but immense little space each night will spin its own selection of sublime tunes tempting all tastes and redeeming all musical faiths.
If God is indeed a DJ, he must be fully booked that month….
To mark this one off occasion the IllumiNaughty Crew have sourced something just a little bit extra special. Residents and guests will rock the rafters as always, but most exciting is the live performance from DISCOTEKA, a cutting-edge psytrance band who’ll knock you sideways and lift your spirit heavenwards with their mix of live guitars, drums and allsorts!! Of course we’ll supply our usual box of optical trickeries, multi-media projections, stilt performers, weird walk about characters and our trademark tailor made décor!
So if you’re looking for a psychedelic sanctuary or just a place to smile and stomp all yours prayers will soon be answered. Come join our fold of heavenly bodies before the End Time arrives and party in the name of all that is righteous and naughty!!!
AMEN.
