Secret NYE preview.

God we're SO excited about this party. Everything is on track for an absolutely brilliant night in a stunning location, the perfect setting for a truly memorable NYE.

If you want to be there, then be warned over half the tickets sold in 2 weeks and we're down to the last 70 already so I suggest you get your self sorted soon or you could find you miss the boat. You can only get a ticket from Ran$om Note  the venue will be announced the week leading up to the party by email to all guests.

The music promises to be of the highest quality with Deep and Techy house grooves combined with some fresh Disco tinged productions and out and out club classics from 10-4.

Andy G has long been in search of the perfect beat and I was excited to hear he recently took his vinyl out of storage and has been delving through it over the past few weeks unearthing gems from his years spent in Ibiza as a resident at Bora Bora and the infamous Electricsex. I'm hoping we'll hear one or two of the 'Rude Boy tunes' he has rocked the white isle with over the years.

Neil Brown is off to Belarus this weekend and will be checking out the scene there with Maceo Plex on Saturday. An exciting weekend which should result in plenty of inspiration for his NYE set opening up alongside Andy G.

Rich Harmer has been working hard on his new label Black Key Records which recently unleashed it's first vinyl offering from the brilliant Jonny Cade. You can check it out here and grab yourself a copy if you like.

Rich has also mixed a little preview ahead of the party. Plenty of depth and a real treat for the house heads amongst you.

I'm staying tight lipped about what I might play as I am pretty undecided at this point, although there are a swathe of tracks on the list and I have no idea how I'm gonna rule any out, vast amounts to choose from that are all so good.

Looking forward to a really great party!

What a night we had with Weatherall... Great 2nd Birthday

We had an absolutely incredible night on Friday at Audio, a great turn out and some excellent tunes. A BIG thanks to Andrew for a memorable set of chuggers... Balearic Psyche Disco is how I would describe it.

An even BIGGER thank you to all of you that came out, I was really chuffed to see so many of you there, loads of familiar faces in the club and a great atmosphere all night long the DD edit of No Memory certainly seemed to whet a few appetites...

From the moment Andrew pitched my last track (Ron Basejam's Edit of Serious by Donna Allen) down and down until it started to sound like a dub track I knew we were in for the treatment. Sure enough we weren't disappointed 106 - 112 bpm for the first hour or more, apart from Birdshell - Craig Bratley I barely recognised another track until towards the end of his set. The dance floor rocked and swayed punctuated with the occasional cheers and whistles you would expect before another explosion of energy.

It is a great feeling when you know everyone there has come out especially for the music and the intention is to dance all night with someone they regard as outstanding at the helm. Friday night was a prime example of this in effect, loads of the crowd were in the same spot, dancing for the duration.

It's rare that this happens - nightclubs nowadays seem to attract a lot of random punters, with other priorities like taking pictures and showing off ranking far higher than the music or dancing.

Weatherall, Greg Wilson, The Revenge have all attracted a music led audience to Disco Deviant it's a pleasure to be part of and exciting to play at. I'm looking forward to Horse Meat Disco debuting for us on Friday June 3rd at Audio. Jim Stanton and Severino will more than likely deliver the goods via the more power packed aspects of Disco alongside some Chicago and contemporary house. Myself & Go Bang DJ's will be sandwiched either side of the HMD guys so another one we're getting over excited about already.

Check back later in the week for a recording of my set and hopefully I may have something from Andrew too.  Got to say Andy G came on back to back with me for the last hour and we gave the place a massive shot of adrenaline, really loved finishing off like that and seeing the place go mad before a closing track with the house lights up, the footage of which is below.

If you had a good time come too HMD on June 3rd there are some limited £5 early birds up for grabs on RA LINK

We are also holding a Free Entry Terrace Party on Easter Sunday 3.30pm - Late - It's on Audio's terrace spilling into the bar as the evening draws in. Deep House and Disco are the order of the day.

A collection of tracks that are currently doing it for me - and a few old favorites chucked into the mix for good measure!
Inspired by day time parties spent dancing in the sun and the various disco and deep house nights I frequent - mostly Brighton based parties such as Go Bang and Disco Deviant - and the occasional journey to the smoke for Fabric etc.
