Those of you who have been with us from the days before we were even called Ears To The House might remember a story we originally published in May 2021. After publishing the anonymous...

So what’s Danny Rampling doing these days, then?

You’re just trolling us now, Mike! Nervous post THAT photo on Facebook from his Tulum trip with the two label models – and the reaction is just as savage as expected…
For a while there, I was beginning to come to the conclusion that having a go at Nervous Records and their boss Michael Weiss is a little bit like spanking a man in a...

Touchy little fellow, isn’t he? Carl Craig is upset (yes, again!) about people “whose opinions you don’t care about” – and he even switches comments off in sign of contempt towards his own fans…
There’s always one, isn’t there? I’m sure you’ve probably come across one of these in life, dear reader. The sort of person who constantly claims not to care about the opinions of others –...

Does even he know what he’s talking about anymore? A notably gammon faced Danny Rampling is filmed in London talking about being a “sovereign person” – and he sounds pretty irate about it!
Yesterday, I woke up and my back was giving me a little bit of bother. It would play up whenever I attempted certain manoeuvres – something which frequently happens when you look after three...

Nightclubs across the UK all reopen next week and vaccine passports are on their inevitable way out – so, when will Danny Rampling apologise after getting it so utterly wrong?
So it’s official. Nightclubs were closed last month in three of the UK’s four countries I response to the Omicron surge. At the time, the anti-vaxxers were foaming in the mouth and telling us...

He’s still backing the loser! As Defected let Carl Craig loose on their weekly radio show, he plays not one, but TWO records from Derrick May in a petulant show of defiance…
You might have noticed this blog hasn’t published anything on Derrick May for the past few weeks. That’s mostly because there’s been nothing new to report. Sources on Detroit have been sending me rumours...

In the middle of a Covid wave, Resident Advisor begin a series all about wellness and what ravers should eat – is this their idea of dance music culture that British taxpayers forked out £750k to save?
This blog is sometimes accused of not being very kind to the dance music press. And by and large, this charge is correct. I think many of them are largely staffed by middle-class types...

People really shouldn’t bereave everything they read online! Not the best start to the week for Carl Craig after a website post falsely claiming he’s died goes viral – and a few people fell for it…
It was the US President Franklin Roosevelt’s secretary of state Cordell Hull who said “A lie will gallop halfway round the world before the truth has time to pull its breeches on”. He was...

And to think someone got paid to write this! Billboard publish a piece about pop singer Billie Eilish’s hair – so what inspiration could the dance music press take from this article?
As someone who runs a blog with an average of five posts per weekday – slightly less on weekends – I do understand the pressure that people are under to keep the fresh content...

That’s another one into the Danny Rampling bus! DJ Sneak outs himself as an anti-vaxxer – but is he just jumping on a bandwagon that some of his colleagues joined two years ago?
What would happen if you stuck all the anti-vaxxers in dance music on Danny Rampling’s Love Groove Dance Party bus? Aside from the rest of us hoping Rampling drives it straight into the Bermuda...

Don’t these parasites EVER take a day off? “Two big influencers” want singer Jamie Mathias at their wedding in the summer – and the cheapskate couple are “not really paying the suppliers”…
Regular readers might remember a post I did back in October last year involving Brighton based singer and songwriter Jamie Mathias. He’d been on Twitter detailing just some of the occasions he’d been asked...

I’m just surprised it didn’t happen earlier! Danny Rampling blocks this blog’s Instagram page, but was it a post about putting down the knife and fork which caused him to press the button?
This blog prides itself on saying things the way they are, rather than regurgitating the press release fodder you find elsewhere. And whilst PR stuff is written by people who go out of their...
