Firefly

Firefly Firstly, a big thank you to everyone who made it down to the last
event and made it such a corker of a night. Kudos goes out to the guy
waving a crutch around all night! Celtec Twinz did a stellar job of
warming up with their tech house groove, ex-Nottingham and Max Cooper collaborator Raw Hedroom laid down his uniqu...e minimal funk and CagedBaby locked in to the Firefly spirit and got the Garvey jumping to
his carnival beats. Spektre were on next and didn't waste anytime
before smashing the Garvey to smitherines with their relentless Techno!

Having to make a last minute substitution for missing in action
Cirkus, we turned to firefly protégé David Russell who stepped up to
the plate smashing his ‘baptism of fire set’ closing the night to
a sea of smiling faces! What a night but onwards and upwards.

I hear there is some massive Techno coming to Nottingham in 2010!!!!!
Get Involved….

••►DUSTY KID

[BOXER-BPITCHCONTROL-SOUTHERN FRIED]

You can’t restrict him in a genre… a sort of eclectic techno with
influences from the 80’s restrained with acid house and spiced with
minimal… in few words… a big beat soup!

••►ELITE FORCE

[U&A RECORDINGS - LOT49]

(RE:VAMPED ALBUM AV SHOW SET)

On the eve of his much anticipated 6th studio album...Elite Force
unites the sometimes warring factions of electro house, techno, and
breakbeat, like a peace keeper who values the spirit of cooperation
and tolerance. He was forged in the fires of breakbeat, which has
always had a habit of sucking in sounds that pass by. Elite’s sets
are like a team performance, with tracks coming from all corners of
the bass-driven sector, to create a vibrant hodgepodge of
boundary-pushing dance music.
