I'm trying to get suggestions of what to play between bands on a club night I'm putting on. Obviously there isn't an awful lot of recorded music from the Victorian era out there, so any sort of popular music from the late-19th/early 20th would be good. That said, anything that would work in this context that is more up to date is also welcome as I'm not sure how reproductions of old gramophone records would sound on a 10K sound system.

I haven't heard any of it myself, but the Music Hall thread sounds like the place to start

yeah, i'm checking the mh thread now. Are there any (and i know this sounds cheesy) modern remixes/covers of old Victorian songs?

"The Victorian era of the United Kingdom was the period of Queen Victoria's reign from June 1837 until her death on the 22nd of January 1901"
