Ministry of Sound was one of the key locations in the development of house music and super-clubs in Britain in the early 90s. Yes, Ministry is that old, but like a shape-shifting mutant cool thing from the future, we've adapted and grown and overcome all sorts of adversity, from day-glo happy pants to the 'fall' of superclubs to the global economic hoopla that's going on right now...
