Cream, based at the Nation nightclub in Liverpool, is one of the best-known night clubs in the UK. Cream began life as a weekly house music night at Nation, and ran in this format for 10 years, from October 1992 to June 2002. Over the ten years of weekly Saturday nights at Nation, the club played host to many international DJ superstars, including Paul Oakenfold (who was resident DJ throughout 1997 and 1998), Paul van Dyk, Sasha plus early exclusive DJ sets from The Chemical Brothers. Cream was originally founded by Darren Hughes, Andy Carroll and James Barton. An early forerunner to Cream were the nights held at Club 051 where the Cream co-founders Andy Carroll and James Barton DJ'd and ran nights playing a mix of US and UK house music. Carroll and Barton held some ground breaking events bringing US legend Tony Humphries, the now legendary Paul Oakenfold, Sasha, Laurent Garnier and debuting a lesser known DJ at that time Allister Whitehead to name a few. Those nights moved on and Cream was born. back in 1997, after my homelesshood in london, i had the chance to go and see for th e first time paul oakenfold, i cant describe what i did see unless you humans were there, but i felt like be in space, people were hughing each other, kissing and crying because his sound was something unreal, i was living my dream, see the man who ispired me t became a dj and the one who make love music............... for those who were there just put your hands in the air and close your eyes ...
