Vernon Kay and DJ Darren Noguerol bring BBC Radio 2's Dance Sounds of the 90s to the stage in a 18+ dance night.
Vernon Kay brings Dance Sounds of the 90s: The Live Tour to the Grand Hall, Scarborough Spa on Friday 6 November. Most of us know him as the voice of Radio 2's weekday mid-morning show and the man behind the Dance Sounds of the 90s radio special, but for this tour he's swapping the studio for the stage. He'll be joined by DJ Darren Noguerol, who DJs alongside him on the radio show and whose live sets run four to five hours, splitting the night 50/50 between Noguerol's underground selections and Kay's chart floorfillers.
Kay describes himself as 'Mr Friday Night' and frames the nineties as one of the best-loved eras, when Britpop and dance music sat side by side and today's kids are hearing samples of the tunes that originally rocked the floors. The show takes in the fashion and rave culture of the time, with anthems from The Shamen, The Prodigy, Snap!, Underworld, JX and Ultra NatΓ©. He talks about the era in terms of house phones, Sega Megadrives, Sony Discmans and raves in fields, and brings it all together with a record box 'time machine' that takes the audience back to the hedonistic nineties.
