Wax:On with PBR Streetgang

I'm playing for Wax: On again this weekend, at The Mint Club in Leeds. Headlining are Asylum & We Love Sundays @ Space residents PBR Streetgang. Asylum has easily been the best night for music at The Mint Club over the last three years of working there, and I was close to shedding a tear when they announced there was to be no more at the end of last year. I don't think I need to say too much about We Love!

FULTON, MARK E, DOTB AND KILL THE DISCO!

Absolutely buzzing about this coming Friday night in Leeds - one of the biggest lineups of the year for disco heads in the North.


First up is Distrikt's 1st Birthday party, which kicks off at 9pm. Distrikt is a wicked venue, hidden in the basement of a side street just round the corner from the Corn Exchange in Leeds. They host some wicked free parties and loads of good pre-parties for all the best nights in Leeds (Think Basics, Mono_Cult, Louche, Dirty Disco etc..) and this year alone has seen Mr C, Moodymanc, Tim Sheridan, Simon Baker, Ryan Elliott and loads more come down and play on the decks. It is their first Birthday this friday and disco legend Maurice Fulton is the main guest of honour. Me and Sebastian Budniak have been asked to provide warm up duties and we are incredibly looking forward to it!

As soon as this finishes we will head over to the Loft, where Throwback host Mark E for what promises to be another cracking party. Support comes from residents Death on The Balcony and the Last Waltz DJ's from Geordie Land. Friday can't come round soon enough!

Wax:On This Friday

I have managed to swing at set at Wax:On's weekly hoedown at the Mint Club in Leeds this coming Friday and I am immensely looking forward to it! Unfortunately Azari & III of Reckless Love fame have had to cancel at the last minute due to a double booking in Berlin but MagicBag Music production duo People Get Real still top the bill.

Wax:On has had a bit of a change of direction over the last few months and after making it's name in electro, nu-rave and more recently dubstep amongst other genres, they have decided to host a weekly friday night at The Mint Club dedicated to house, disco and techno as well as their monthly parties with Metropolis at the 4500 capacity Leeds University. The line-ups they have coming up over the new few weeks are very much up my street, and expect to see Ivan Smagghe, Optimo and Aeroplane amongst many others.

Here's the info for this week - if you are in the area pop down.


------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Wax:On continues this Friday for the third week of it's blinding new residency at The Mint Club. After Rory Philips and The Sonic Emporium absolutely tore the dance floor to pieces at the last party, this weekend we see Wax:On resident and MAGiCBAG production duo People Get Real joined by Kill The Disco's very own resident and promoter Adam Daniels. Expect nothing more than the finest house, techno and disco throughout. See you ...on the dance floor!

IBIZA ROCKS..

I have landed a residency at the Ibiza Rocks Bar (formerly Bar M) for the summer season in Ibiza. I've been playing 2/3 times a week for the preparties for the nights at Eden, Amnesia and Es Paradis such as Cream and Pete Tong's Wonderland. It's so far been very fun but also very challenging as rather than knocking out my normal set of disco through to pitched down house music I have had to adapt (quite a lot!) when warming up for DJ's playing the bar such as Zane Lowe..... The first two hours are where I can really play the music that I want but I have enjoyed the challenge of having to play and mix music that is a lot faster, tougher and harder than the kind of stuff I would normally put on!

Definitley having a lot of fun out here though, loving the lifestyle, sunshine and ridiculously cheap alcohol.

I normally play Saturdays and Sundays and one night during the week - if you are out on the White Isle this summer pop in for a quick sangria!

KILL THE DISCO @ DISTRIKT..

Kill The Disco take over Distrikt in Leeds City Centre this month; cracking new(ish) bar/club venue that is just over the road from The Space and is ran by dance music heads who have a real passion for underground beats and have top quality lineups on (DJ's/Bands or otherwise) pretty much running through Tuesday to Sunday. It's our turn this month and we are well looking forward to it!

NEW MIX FROM MOI - I LOVE YOU BUT I'VE CHOSEN DISCO..

Just had a cracking weekend playing at Detached at Beaverworks in the new Room 4 - the event was absolutely heaving and there was some top class techno being knocked out in the main room. The Modern Love showcase downstairs was quite lush on the ears and the venue itself is quite simply amazing - warehouse vibes central. Anyhow, new mix from me, representing what you would expect to hear should you catch me playing anywhere.

BIO:

Five years ago, I would have been plying your ears with two mixes of sci-fi electro so spooky it would have had Luke Skywalker running for his light sabre. Whilst I am still a massive fan of the aforementioned music, over the past 2-3 years (and especially now I have reached the grand old age of 25) I have been getting more and more into the dubby, disco and downtempo sounds that my local record emporium has been able to provide. This was initially due to my residency at Kill The Disco (see below) where I realised the latest Anthony Rother and DMX Krew releases perhaps wouldn’t suit an 8pm warm up slot, but since then, my hunger for these sounds has burgeoned and now I quite frankly cannot get enough! A very bizarre Monday night in Berlin dancing to the most unbelievable underground 80’s disco music in the infamous Tachelles Squat venue has further increased my appetite to expand my knowledge of disco music both old and new.

In the previous few years I was involved in running a night entitled ‘Kill The Disco’, which began in my hometown of Middlesbrough before emigrating to Leeds when the vast majority of us involved began University commitments there. Will Saul, Marc Ashken and DNCN were among some of the many guests knocking out shapes behind the hallowed turntables. The night ran for the best part of a year and a half and grew from a weekly free party in a small bar to hosting numerous events at both the Mint Club and Cornerhouse. More recently I have begun playing in the back rooms at the last few Detached nights at Beaverworks, with headliners such as Derick May, James Ruskin, Andy Stott and Pendle Coven appearing on the same line up. I also play the Cognosco after parties at various venues of debauchery across the city.

I have been a runner up in the I-DJ raw talent competitions twice, once in May 2005 and again in July 2006. I ran a radio show entitled 'Live @ The Underground' on www.lsrfm.com for three years whilst I was studying for my BA and over the duration of the show we attracted guest mixes and appearances from the likes of Billy Nasty, Tim Sheridan, Ellen Allien, Slam, Marco Passarani and James Holden amongst many others. The show was featured in both I-DJ magazine and DJ Mag as podcast/radio show of the week/month (or something like that!).

This mix is what I'd hope to play in a club with no restriction - starting off nice and slow and deep before building it up a little (but not too much!). I like to play for as long as possible if I get the chance so if you can imagine this mix spread over three or four hours then you'll get a pretty good picture of how my set would go.

I do hope the sounds on this CD are kind on your good folk’s ears, and all comments are appreciated!

A TECHNO VALENTINES GIFT

Detached is hosting it's Valentines party and if you are searching the internet for that elusive romantic gesture for your special day then I don't think you can go far wrong with buying her a ticket for this event at Beaverworks on the 13th. The main room is hosted by Labyrnth Records but it is the basement that grabs my attention where Modern Love stalwarts Pendle Coven and Andy Stott headline; I love that warm dubby techno sound these two produce and an appearance from fellow Modern Lover Claro Intelecto would have been the icing on the cake.

Alas, it is not to be, but rather than getting saddened by this you can comfort yourself with the fact that I will be doing my disco/house thing in Room 4 alongside Errol Brown (Dirty Disco), Scott Broadhead (Detached) and Mundyke (Audio Punk Records). Should be a cracker as always and you can buy advance tickets for the event HERE or alternatively send me a message on here or Facebook and I should be able to sort out some kind of discount guestlist..
