The weather is hot and so are the beats as Subliminal return to Club Dissident on Friday 30th July for what will be another night offering the the finest sounds of Drum & Bass. Once again there will be no shortage of exclusive new music as we present two DJ / Producer acts of the highest order.
EQUINOX has been involved in Drum & Bass music for almost two decades. He grew up in South East London on a diet of Dub, Soul, Jazz, Funk, Hip Hop and Detroit Techno. Such a musical education could only act as a prelude to his eventual musical involvement in the music industry. Fuelled by his passion for beat driven electronic music, a then fledgling 15 year old producer Equinox passed a demo tape of his early work to hardcore legend Bizzy B and the next thing he knew, Bizzy was on the phone and work began on the “Brain Records Crew EP”.
Since those early Brain Records days, Equinox has worked with a host of other artists including Outrage and Breakage to name but two and also engineered the 2004 remix of DJ Crystl’s Warpdrive, released on Photek productions. In addition to his various production commitments elsewhere, Equinox runs his own label with Breakage called Scientific Wax that focuses on their own musical blueprint for the future and hosts his own weekly radio show on Jungletrain.net.
After hearing his set at Hardware in London a couple of weeks back, Peterborough best get ready to be musically slaughtered!!
But we don’t stop there..
Like a tank commander with a battle plan, METH is a DJ / Producer on a deadly mission. Having started out in the mid-nineties with good friend Andy Propaganda, Meth developed his DJ and production skills before joining with Blade and Virtua in making “The Sect” a trio famed for their uncompromising musical style. Many releases followed on Offkey, Position Chrome, Freak and Obscene before Meth decided to unleash himself again as a solo artist. Now and integral part of Raiden’s mighty Offkey outfit, his musical development has become swifter than ever before, leaving a trail of club devastation wherever his tracks are played. With new material due on Offkey, Subtitles, Renegade Hardware and DJ bookings spanning the globe, it’s fair to say that the real Meth has arrived, packing only the heaviest musical artillery.
If this wasn’t already enough, once again the Subliminal supporting cast is a strong one, with main room action being provided by Bad Boy Kaiza of Tilt Recordings Germany, Komplex, Mr. Bang-E, Alexander (Organic & Rude FM), Y2 (Danger Chamber Digital) and Strago (Mutacube).
On this night we are also opening up the second room for all things bass, breaks and bleeps with Headliner EK50 of Insekto Recordings Spain, Beat Juggler extraordinaire DJ Syrus, guests and residents Funky Green (Amen 2 Anarchy), Overdrive (Head-Room), Kaos (23rror Bass), Faultine (Element) and Riot.
Evening hosts are the mighty MC Sn+per (CIA / 4Cross) and Atomic.
All the above being delivered @ Club Dissident, the best local venue for underground and urban sounds. Expect a Bass Heavy 12k sound system, Camo decor, lots of lights n lasers, reasonably priced drinks and friendly vibes all round. There are lots of free parking spaces right next to venue, Peterborough train station is but a 10 minute walk away and there are plenty of Taxi’s & takeaways on the doorstep.
And here is the best bit… How much are we charging you for all this heavyweight business…? £5 all night!! Doors open @ 10pm, party till late, last entry 3am.
See ya’ll by the bassbins
Comments ClosedThe last Saturday of August 2009 saw the second Special Edition of DMF this year, specially for Mr Bang-E aka Tony Neurofunktion. This man resides in the Midlands (UK) where he co-promotes the two event series “Neurofunktion” and “Subliminal”. He has a busy schedule playing on events around Europe, and he made the journey to Mannheim (Germany) extra to complete a live appearence in our studio. And it was quite a remarkable show… Not only is Tony a nice bloke dedicated to Jungle Drum & Bass with his heart since day one, he also exceeded all expectations we could possibly have for a guest DJ.
After Kaiza’s intro moderation, Tony started by saying a few words in German and played a minimix review of three of his favourite tunes for 2009. Then he broke the “highest percentage of dubplates played in a set @ DMF” record (formerly held by Bassface Sascha since 2004) by playing a set of 100% vinyl dubplates (he even has the tunes professionally mastered by Dubstudio in Bristol UK before being cut). In addition to this already astounding quality benchmark, he can really mix! What’s more, he had a red string in his set which is not a common feature amongst Drum & Bass DJs either. Plus he played tunes we like. Even the sound problems could not stop him… During his set, we had to change one of the monitors twice and fiddle about with the amplifier (which, of all things, has a defective contact at the volume knob and troubled us again that day). But he just kept selecting and mixing on the same quality level.
In short: Mr Bang-E was definitely the best guest DJ we ever had in the show since its start in 2001. No disrespect to all other guests, but – as the German saying goes: “Ehre wem Ehre gebührt.”
Later in the show, Kaiza did a short interview with Tony which we have put directly after his set in this download (because we didn’t want to put the rest of the show online… check the full playlist to see why).
And now, after this unusually high ammount of words: the actual download.
