Why?

I'm tracking down photos, videos, mix tapes and memories of that time and posting them on this blog. It was a fantastic period in my life that I shared with so many. Having not even thought about it for 12 years the sudden rush to pay my respects and share is overwhelming. Please feel free to contribute and enjoy.

Frosty J

Tribal had four different stages in it’s eight year life. Born at Moray House, some serious development at the Blue Oyster Club before Thursdays and then Saturdays at the Venue. One of the constant’s throughout was James, Frosty J!

There from day one as a Moray House regular, Frosty’s ability to balance inventive deck skills with a knack for putting a smile on everybody’s face was first shown in the back room at the Blue Oyster. Alongside Harry, Joni Lyle, Gmac, Steve King and an array of smoke machines, Disney super 8’s in reverse and a grand bifta or two, Frosty led the way.

Which leads me to the second mix for you to download. Frosty J circa 1996, The Cooler era and his uncanny knack of mixing accapellas with instrumentals and giving you the party you would never get anywhere else.

There’s plenty more to come, some words, some mixes, some photos and a video made of TF by Kristina Glitters from 1997. So enjoy Frosty and feel free to get in touch with your own shizzle.

One more!!!!
