Review

Originally conceived as a mod club, London nightspot Blow Up spearheaded pop’s brief flirtation with mod at the beginning of the Nineties that spawned bands like Menswear and inspired Blur’s Parklife. However, as well as resurrecting old classics from the likes of The Who and the Creation, it also managed to forge a unique sound all of it’s own, mixing easy listening into the trademark brew of mod and pop. One of the most important achievements by DJs Paul Tunkin, Andy Lewis and the Karminsky Experience was the rediscovery of rare Sixties library music. This album is packed with such rare and previously unheard music from the likes of easy listening masters as Keith Mansfield and Alan Hawkshaw of The Mohawks, as well as plenty of funky instrumental numbers and sitar grooves. If this doesn’t make you want to don your sharpest Sixties garb and shimmy with the best of them, then nothing will. –Amber Cowan

Featuring the cream of the KPM Music Library writers including Keith Mansfield, Alan Hawkshaw, Alan Parker and Johnny Pearson, Exclusive Blend Volume 1 takes us on a journey deep into the library’s vaults, starting with the pounding uptempo of ‘Move, Move, Move’ through the Hammond-heavy ‘Beat Me ‘Til I’m Blue’ and ‘Rocky Mountain Runabout’ (versions of both featuring on the legendary Mohawks ‘The Champ’ album) to the sitar 6Ts club sound of ‘Delhi Discotheque’ and ‘Come here Calcutta’. Since its original 1996 release Exclusive Blend Volume 1 has continuously been re-pressed and perfectly captures the early ‘Blow Up’ club sound whilst still remaining a ground-breaking introduction to the world of the Music Library and an inspiration to djs, collectors and a million imitators.
