John Peel Wiki

Changes to the look of John Peel Wiki will take place in the near future due to a new skin being rolled out over Oct/Nov across Wikia. Please see the Wikia Staff Blog for further details. On this site, the changes will affect the navigation from the left menu, as well as introduce a fixed page width with narrower content space. Please be patient while adjustments are made for the switch to the new system.

UPDATE: As the change is now in force for some users, I have switched the navigation to the simplified one for the new system. Please check Navigation in the Help section if you can't find things. I also initially made small adjustments to the front page layout, but have now reverted to the old look until all users are on the new system.

COUNTDOWN: Just a reminder for people still using Monaco that the final switch to the new skin is due on Nov. 3. After that, it will no longer be offered as an option. Sorry. Nothing to do with me.

New Decade was the pseudonym of Paul Smailes, who also recorded as Whose Party, Blue 101, Out Of Order and Scope. He released several 12 inch EPs and two albums under the name on his Out Of Romford label before he vanished from the scene. He dabbled in various styles such as hardcore, jungle and techno.

Although Smailes had been releasing material since mid 1992, Statue Of Gold was the first single Peel picked up on. He played it repeatedly throughout 1993 and included it in the Peelenium for 1993. At the end of 1994, New Decade recorded a three-track session for JP and he periodically played their music into the 2000s.
