You Tube have announced an enforced new design layout for March 6 2012. Having looked at the new designed I have decided it is truly awful but there is nothing I can do about it. So I will appologise up front for You Tube's blatant crappness.

xcellent stuff. There will never be another time as good as that! I don't know what it was. Things just seemed to have more Atmosphere then in the discos and the tracks were better. Maybe I'm just an old git! Thanks for the extra info and videos. Very much appreciated!!!! If I can get the 12 inch versions of Alien and Blackhole burned to MP3 (They're in 1st class condition by the way) I'll give you a prod!!! Regards Funkstar

Alien by Nostromo Reply Part One

The music was first used for the Opening Light Show at R&J's Doncaster for the first time on New Year's Eve 1980 to coincide with the new Dancefloor Lighting system both overhead and routed Tivoli floor lights were used. It involved all aspects of the new lighting together with stage pyrotechnics, smoke and large lens liquid oil projectors and stage set designs with a Sci-Fi theme and built-in stage lighting effects (see photo section Re Cusworths Bike Shows).

Alien by Nostromo Reply Part Two

Romeo's Doncaster had a low ceiling so nothing went up or down instead we had effect lights all over the club including walkways, all around the contour of the ceiling and seating areas -- all the club and its inhabitants were part of the show. Large screen CRT TVs were located on each main pillar and used visual effects first pioneered by a company who were featured on BBC1's Tomorrows World. 2k Theatre-Class Lanterns were used from the corners of the club together with UV, multi-coloured strobes and confetti cannons.

Alien by Nostromo Reply Part Three

We used other lightshow music which you can find on the channel but Alien by Nostromo was everyone's favourite -- the last light show at 10pm on Saturday April 28 1984 was seen by 1400 people (normally about 200 people were in by this time). We started with Alien and then ran through all the light show music since October 1978. Part of the dancefloor lighting design can be seen on the Regional Final of the World Disco Dance Championship 1980 video on the playlist but only a third of the system was used on this occasion. Thanks for your input.

Were these tracks used as an opener with your light system show for this venue? I know they used to use the theme from the War of the worlds poppy remix in the late 80's at the Black Orchid in Nottingham (where the whole light rig used to come down to head height almost from the ceiling and go bananas. If so, have you got any video of your work??
