Just a quick one to get the word out that I am extremely keen to land myself some more gigs. After a massive break from gigging, and the scene in general, whilst I moved house and sorted some shit out, I am now settled and ready to jump back on board. I’m not fussy with where I play or to what type of crowd – as long as they appreciate what I play, I’m content.

Fee’s are highly negotiable dependent on the type of event. So please don’t hesitate to contact me for further information. If your interested to hear the type of music I play head on over to the Mixes page. There’s 2 recent sets, one DnB and one Prog, that will give you a good idea of where my interests lay. If you’d like to hear more you can also head on over to my old mix page HERE and check out a heap of older mixes from the past few years.

Im not really one to talk myself up and I hate sucking up to promoters to land gigs – I prefer to score them on my own merits and let my music do the talking. So if you have the a spare moment please give them a listen. If you like what you hear, please help spread the word – drop a link Facebook or burn a CD for a friend. Every little bit helps.

Peace.

Unfortunately the venue we had prepped for our 2nd birthday somehow managed to double book us and we can no longer hold the 2nd birthday on April 10th. We’re currently discussing other dates so will let you know the minute we have 100% confirmed when exactly it will be held.

The venue has also requested that we pay entirely for security – which, in our  time at running events, we have never been asked to do by any venue, EVER. If this goes ahead, we’ll have to find another venue as the price for security for the duration of the event is more then what we’ll make in ticket sales alone – not to mention paying for DJs and sound equipment. So fingers crossed they agree to sort out security. I find it somewhat rude for a venue, who will be taking all bar sales, and a deposit from us, to ask for further money to cover security. The money they make from bar sales will more then adequately sort out security and provide them with a huge profit margin. The way I see it, we make them money in bringing in a crowd – the least they could do is sort out security. It’s really quite annoying.

Anyway, this probably isn’t the best place to vent. Will post up the official date once we have all the issues smoothed out. Massive apologies to everyone for  the stuff around – its just lucky we didn’t have any of the flyer’s or promo stuff printed up!
