Dyer on the decks... BIG

I had to bring this up: On Fri whist leaving a club in Cheltenham w/ High Contrast we saw this poster of Danny Dyer (DJ set). I asked the club owner - "what does he play?" He replied "mainly R&B". Nice...

Paris Sept 2009

Just got back from Paris. Its been three years since I was last there and I forgot how much I love that city. Played at Jungle Juice on Sat night with Spor. Had to be the hottest (as in temp) club I've played in EVER! I nearly fainted on stage about 4 times, totally fucked my new jeans and trainers, but its all in the good name of Jungle music! Big shout to all the Jungle Juice crew who were a great bunch and put on a rammed and extremly hot party. The following day avec my misses, we hung out all day and evening in Paris, eating frogs legs, onion soup and massive baguettes with ham and cheese... as you do. Infact we both ate a massive steak each and fell asleep in the park next to Le Place Du Concord (thats probably spelt wrong). I also rolled my jeans up to look extra french. 'Ce Bon'

The Nextmen LP launch & the last ever Friends & Family @ Cargo was a total roadblock with the que around the corner at 7.45pm! An amazing turnout for the last ever Friends & Family and what a way to go out - on top! Lots of lovely people, a banging BBQ and outside soundsystem, live art show from Daydream Network and then of course there was the music! Ross from PTH, The Nextmen and myself, Ms. Dynamite, High Contrast (played a mash-up set) and then Si & Frank & Kwasi played the last set.

Big Chill 2009

I bloody love the Big Chill. I played there in 2005 & 2007 and both times the gigs have rated as some of the best I've ever done! 2009 was even better if thats possible! We had a 5,000 strong crowd of lovely people, who knew about good music - going fucking crazy to Nextmen's mash-up selection of reggae, soul, hip hop, dubstep, 80's classics, bootlegs, remix after remix and d&b. THEY ARE THE ORIGINAL MASH UP DJ'S! Don't ever get that twisted. Check the pics... and big love to all the Big Chillers. Till next year!

David Rodigan live in Brighton!

We hosted the legend and true gentleman that is Sir David Rodigan last night at our launch party for Hush Your Beak @ The Coalition in Brighton, and what a night it was! Rodi 'Ram Jam' Rodigan smashed down the club like a true, original pioneer, killing the dance with the freshest dub's from Jamaica and of course his original exclusive selection! Perhaps the most impressive DJ I've ever witnessed... and thats the truth! Also got to shout out another legend Earl Gateshead from Trojan Records who also played and to Fat Boy Slim for rolling through! Rodigan will be back in Brighton with us in 2010. "give me some signal!" Fucking amazing...
