With Friday getting close it's about time we wrote something about Mr Robbie Dee...

I once read somewhere that he was described by a top tier dj as the life and soul of the party, always going longer and harder than anyone and he was always alright if he somewhere to sleep it off!

This guy is a legend, he was my idol as a teenage, always use to listen to his sets on my paper round lol! Any way I'll stop wittering and let you enjoy this interview shamelessly lifted from www.planetdnb.com, with thanks to Epidemik Crew:

As most of us no you are one of real old skool mc's. Hence you are The Original Detonator. What age did you start to mc then?

I started when I was sixteen, the same time I first got behind the decks, but did my first rave set back in 1990 at the age of twenty, so I’m an old git, I mean pro at it now!! lmao

Looking into your background I see that you had a amazing event at Fantazia Summertime, Bournemouth, as you where harnessed and hoisted up over the 16,000. That must have been you most memorial event?

Looking back, I feel that may have been the pivotal moment in my career, as it was for many others that performed that May night. It was the preparation that went into that party that I remember the most, I can remember travelling the length and breadth of the country with Gideon Dawson, one of the co-promoters of Fantazia at the time, visiting virtually every record shop in the country personally, making sure that this event was going to be the one that everyone who attended not only remembered, but talked about for a very long time to come. Little did we know that Matchams would go down in rave history as one of the greatest parties that ever took place! The idea of myself being hoisted over the crowd was entirely my own idea, as I thought it would be a nice touch to an already awesome night. Though originally I was all for the idea of a jetpack going over the crowd, but im sure Dorset Council wouldn't have gone for that idea on the grounds of health and safety (bastards), so yes it was a memorable night for me, as I still remember every second of it in perfect detail.

You have been in the music scene for a while now; do you think it has changed a lot of the years?

The rave scene has evolved greatly and so has the music, in fact its gone full circle in some places. Who would believe that in 2007 old skool would be as big as it was when it was just plain old hardcore back in its glory days of the early to mid nineties (not the hardcore of today which is a whole different box of records). Drum n Bass has evolved into something amazing over the years, which I not only enjoy greatly but also play weekly on Wreckless Radio over the Internet and on PlanetDnB. Hardcore has matured from its happy hardcore roots and techno will always be techno as it happens, but yes, music has evolved and that’s not a bad thing. Then you have new skool breaks which is a whole new baby brother of old skool which Im just about getting my head around, but liking it all the same.

We have seen you work along side a lot of well known names like yourself, is there anyone around at the moment you would like to work along side?

Well, I'd like to work with Carl Cox again given the chance, as he's still the worlds no 1 dj, and, well, as to anyone else there are so many. Not sure on that one, maybe I need to break myself in to the drum n bass scene and work with some of those djs more, I’ll get back to you on that one.

Is there anything new happening for 2007?

Well as you know I won Best Old Skool MC back in May of last year, and this year I've been nominated for another one for Raveology, so fingers crossed, hey who knows? Other than that, I would like to do another Detonation Boulevard event to match the one I did last year alongside my friend Keaty, but moneys a bit tight so I'm looking for an investor for my next project (if anyone’s interested get in touch lol)

I know it's early in the year, have you got any events planned for this year yet?

I've got a few major bookings coming up like Raindance, Fantazia in Scotland, Innovation in the Sun and Slammin Vinyl at the Alexandra Palace, so I'm going to be quite busy this year I hope......

Any thing you would like to add?

Yeah, I’d like to take the opportunity to thank all of my fans who supported me over the years and voted for me, making me the Best Old Skool MC in the Uk, big up to all the djs and mcs and ravers and promoters that know me. All my friends on DontStayIn.com and MySpace, and I hope that 2007 is as great for me as it was in 2006, and believe me it was awesome let me tell you. And big up to Easygroove last but not least.
