Andrew Weatherall – From Primal Scream to Warp Records and beyond, the Guv’nor of British dance music

About this episode

Diving deep into all things ’90s… We celebrate Andrew Weatherall, the DJ giant who influenced every corner of electronic music across the ’90s and ’00s. Master arranger, remix royalty, father of indie dance and pioneering selector, he brought dub, rock and roll, soul, pop, punk, noise and techno from across all generations to the dancefloor. “Wevvers” kickstarted the ’90s with Primal Scream’s ‘Loaded’ and subsequent album Screamadelica, working with Happy Mondays, New Order, Beth Orton, The Manics, St Etienne and My Bloody Valentine. Then there’s his time on the infamous acid house fanzine Boy’s Own, his massively-influential Warp-signed band The Sabres of Paradise, right the way up to his Nine O’Clock Drop compilation which heralded the ’00s electroclash revolution. Veterans of Jockey Slut magazine (now Disco Pogo) Jim Butler and Johnno Burgess of Bugged Out! fame, join Miranda to talk about their book A Disco Pogo Tribute To Andrew Weatherall and celebrate the man known as The Guv’nor. • Buy A Disco Pogo Tribute To Andrew Weatherall and Miranda’s book Uncommon People: Britpop and Beyond in 20 Songs through our affiliate bookshop and you’ll help fund the podcast by earning us a
