one of the dopest nights Ive been to ina while

great vibes

great crowd

good tunes

heavy drops

fun throughout.

Deadmau5 - I Remember (Caspa Remix)

With Deadmau5 playing here in brum this Friday, and Caspa down for Valve on the same night, I thought I'd share this one with you - Caspa's remix of the Deadmau5 tune I Remember:


Caspa is really getting it sorted at the minute, with his album Everybody's Talking, Nobody's Listening dropping a while back, he is finally becoming a huge DJ/Producer in his own right, stepping out of the shadow of Rusko to bring his own brand of filth!

your time Caspa!

SKANK HOLIDAY WEEKEND!

Oh my days are we spoilt for choice this weekend in Brum!

This Friday we have not one but TWO sick nights coming up:

SPECTRUM with Deadmau5, Noisia, Plump DJs, Utah Saints, Pete Jordan and Mickey Slim.

Deadmau5's hi-tech approach to live performance looks like its gonna be absolutley epic, and Noisia are pretty much top of the game in the DnB scene, innovating like no one else! Plump DJs are gonna be laying down the breaky goodness, and the usual Spectrum crew will be keeping the quality high all night long!

Date: Friday 1st May 2009
Venue: Air Nightclub, Heathmill Lane, Birmingham B9 4AA
Time: 22:00 – 06:00
Tickets: -
Limited Earlybirds £12 + bf
General Admission £15 + bf
www.theticketsellers.co.uk/buy_tickets/events/?id=10006454



then on the same night, we have another night that is gonna be absolutley off the scale, VALVE at the Custard Factory!



This is one that really needs no introduction, everyone playing is absolutley sick!



Then on to Saturday, we've got the iconic DROP BEATS NOT BOMBS!

This bi-annual protest night always goes off, you'd be an absolute sucker to miss it, seriously!





Remember, this one isn't all about the music, (which is, of course, going to be absolutley sick!) but the feeling, skanking away with thousands of other people, all united under the belief that there is no need for innocents to die day in, day out. At only £10 a ticket, and a HUGE area (the whole of Adderly Street is closed off, as well as both of the Rainbow's fine venues), you'd be a complete fool to miss out!

Then, if you're still going on Sunday, we've got another Birmingham favourite, ECLECTRICITY!

The line up for this one looks even sicker than usual:

Space 2 (Custard Factory Warehouse): Annie Mac Presents
CALVIN HARRIS (LIVE)
ANNIE MAC
BOYS NOIZE
RACHEL BARTON

Lakeside Marquee: Spectrum
FRIENDLY FIRES (LIVE)
SCRATCH PERVERTS
BEARDYMAN (LIVE)
RYE RYE (LIVE)
PETE JORDAN

Rooty’s Lakeside:
CHASE & STATUS
FRICTION
FABIO (RADIO 1)
MARY ANNE HOBBS (RADIO 1)
ZERO ONE - DARKFIRE DUB

Factory Club:
STEVE ANGELLO
MICKY SLIM
EVANS & WATERFALL
GEORGE KAFETZIS
CRAIG WATT

The Kitchen: Avant Garde
STEVE L
ROWLAND COOPER
KE CLARKE
MURRAY DARE


gonna be HUGEEEE!

Location: The Custard Factory
Date: Bank Holiday Sunday 3rd May 2009
Time: 21:00 – 06:00

Tickets: -
Limited Earlybirds : SOLD OUT
General Admission: £23.50 + bf


Bank holidays are easily my favourite weekends of the year, we always get so spoilt for choice here in Brum!

so , yeah, time to rinse your credit cards over on ticket sellers, and hopefully I'll be seeing you there!

BIG UP!
