Bestival Sept 08

Just got back (and washed!) from a very very very muddy Bestival. A shame the weather was rubbish, but apart from that - it goes down as one of the best festivals I've been to in yonks. Played with The Nextmen & Zarif on Saturday nights alongside A-Trak, Sinden and Annie Mac. Check the pics...

Pukkelpop festival Belgium with High Contrast

Last week I was back on the road with Mr. Contrast, and back in Belgium for the Pukkelpop festival. We played between Sebastain (Ed Banger) and the legendary Carl Craig. The place was packed and once again Lincon brought the goodness. I have to mention the really rude guy we ran into in the artist production office. I think he was in control of the wrist bands and took about 15mins to give our bloody passes... a proper jobs worth! and ended up making us late going on. Tosser. I played Porto the following day with Tony Colman and was due to flight to Poland for Creamfields the following day. However the plane (pictured below) was late, so I missed my connecting flight. Shit happens though...

Snowbombing Festival Austria April 2008 with Scratch Perverts and DJ Marky

In early April we all headed out to play the superb Snowbombing festival in 'ze Austrian mountains'. Did some boarding, did'nt break anything and had a blast in the snow. I did two shows; Monday night with the Scratch Perverts. 1,500 people going nuts to a mash-up set of big, big tunes! Then on the Tuesday I had the honour of hosting 'Marky & Friends', and had the pleasure of MC'ing over a superb three way back to back to back session featuring DJ Marky, Marcus Intelex and Nu Tone. Was one of the best sets I've ever worked on! The tune selection was the bollocks! Shout to Marky, Nu:Tone, Marcus, Stanton Warriors, Scratch Perverts, Plastic Little, Dr Laub, Tom Coda, Ali B, Ben Westbeach, Calvin Harris, Marc Roberts, James Zabelia, Earl Gateshead and the Trojan Crew and everyone else I caught up with. Oh and big shout to my Brighton crew who repped 10 deep all week! Nice...
