Barry Connell

It wont be your taste in music - so if you dont have anything pleasant to say STFU.

but the young DJ who was just featured as the up and coming resident for Insideout and Goodgreef on the essential mix has just passed away.

Re: Essential Mix DJ just died!

Jeez thats really sad :-(

The guys at the beeb must have thought lots of him to give him an essential mix slot.

Went to a couple of insideout parties back in the days of my trance loving, great fun.

RIP

Reading the essential mix message board, sad news indeed

Barry,I phoned you the day after this and told you it was absolutely flawless and you told me you hoped it sounded good on the Radio and hoped everyone liked it. I must say my friend that you absolutely excelled yourself even by your ultra high standards and for me this is by far the best set you ever did play just such a shame that it was to be your last ever one as we all knew you had so much more to give.You will always be a massive part of Inside Out and all the team will miss you dearly as we have lost one of the IO family.I will sincerely miss you with all my heart and haven't cried so much ever since I know you will no longer be there at Inside Out rocking it like yu always do.thank you for all the memories, love, support and advice over the many years we have been close mates.till we meet again.>>Barry Connell Forever*love Will xxxxx
William Daniel >>Inside Out*

Re: Essential Mix DJ just died!

and more from other dj's

".... my April 2008 promo mixes which i would like to dedicate to a friend, a colleague and just an absolute diamond of a bloke Mr Barry Connell who was tragically taken from us all today.

We had very similar tastes in music and we used to gibber about tracks and mixes everytime we saw each other, it used to bore his fiancee Amanda to tears right enough but we couldn't help ourselves, we had so much in common. He was a real top supporter of my music and for that i was always very appreciative. Anyway Barry i hope you're listening mate cos these mixes are for you wee man...RIP, you'll always be in our hearts. "

Re: Essential Mix DJ just died!

a couple weeks ago a friend of my friends decided to end his life.

the friends i mention are my second family, i love and respect them in the highest regard.

in the wake of this person deciding to end his life one of my best friends made a tribute mix for him....

this friend of mine is ms'r THE_LIGHT and he is almost a brother to me.

i feel like posting this mix is almost necessary in celebrating a persons life, instead of mourning their death.

so i share with you a beautiful downtempo set

some songs well known, others not.

enjoy it and remember why you're listening to it.
