Thanks to Tim from theargus.co.uk for pointing me in the direction of this mix from Brighton’s own Matty, a graphic designer who doubles up as a house DJ involved with the free underground movement that is Glock’N’Spiel.
This is a tight little mix that really get’s going about 15 minutes in. A jacking undercurrent keeps the [...]

So, finally, after about 18 months I may finally get out to Kontrol – one of SF’s prime house/techno nights.
Agnès is due to be headlining tonight. A Swiss producer with a penchant for dubbed out minimal productions. For some reason I don’t get to check out much minimal these days, so looking forward to seeing [...]

What a surprisingly delightful place Austin turned out to be. Not exactly sure why I have this latent distrust of Texas; after all you’d have thought I’d have lived through enough racism not to fall into the trap of tarring all with the same brush. But yes, for some strange reason I expected all Texans [...]

Let’s get the disclosure out of the way first: I’ve been a big fan of Chris T-T for some years having been a fellow Brighton neighbor back in the day (the mighty Rifa did a good job on the promotion front). We were witness to some blinding performances with and without the full Chris T-T [...]

So, once again managed to make my annual pilgrimage to Cream in Liverpool for the annual knees-up with migrant scouser Dax. Last year the Swedish Mafia rocked our boats, this year one of the highlights for me was Laidback Luke. Maybe because many of the other DJs are practically geriatric (John Digweed, John Kelly, Danny [...]
one last live foray (if our dreams come off, there maybe virtual outings in the future) into a world of jumbled beats and freaked out house chez smarties. marc will be hitting a milestone around midnight so expect some extra sauce on top of the normal festivities.
for me, the end of an era – as [...]
sniff. it’s come to this. the last outing for me and dj ohm at the wonderful smarties in downtown Nice.
still, the beats will keep the tears at bay. we’ve also got some new kit in tow (serato) so will have enough on our plates. i’d like to say i’ll record the event, but who knows [...]
december saw my 5th anniversary and a fun night in Nice. the Hi Hotel did a fair job at kicking off proceedings in a bar that somehow reminded me of an Early Learning Centre.
we had a passable meal at an italian with one of the more interesting waitresses you’ll find. ‘yum, yum, yum’ was her [...]
