A UK and Norway joint effort to bring back the days of ruffness to the music business has been initiated. Via a series of 12″ we plan on conquering the dancefloors around the globe. For a taste of the future, head over to remerge records and secure a piece of history
can’t seem to get away from smarties at the moment. not complaining though. tomorrow night is me and dj ohm spinning fine house and electro. come round if you’re close by.
so, once more fink and kiterae took to the decks at smarties as the current incarnation of nice’s finest electro bar draws to a close (refurb due in august).

so, summer’s arrived and cannes has finally woken up. there’s nights galore these days. pantiero, palais de cannes and the vastly improved plages electroniques. last year the idea was there but something was lacking in the execution. the beach party was missing the thump of the sound system and the visuals were little more than [...]
after a 3 month hiatus, kiterae and dj fink return to smarties on july 27 for a night of electro, techno, dubstep and perhaps even some brain-dance! it’s free to get in and the ambience is to die for. as are the cocktails. throw in a couple of eccentrics behind the bar and there you [...]
