Global Gathering 2010 Full Lineup - Day by Day / Tents.

Global Gathering have announced their full line up for 2010 showing which acts are appearing on what day and the tents they will be performing in! Rinse/FWD tent is new this year! Dubstep is not stuck out on a terrace! BOOOOOOM! Hopefully the Random Concept tent will have a better sound system this year! Can't wait for the Godskitchen Boombox aswell. It really is amazing to watch!

TUNE! of the week.

CULT OF SNAP! - SNAP! (MATRIX AND FUTUREBOUND REMIX)

My favourite DnB tune for a while now...

Fabric Nightclub EC1 For Sale.

After a few weeks of speculation about London superclub Fabric going into administration, closing, not closing, making all their staff redundant and a few other related issues, we've now got something concrete and whilst it isn't exactly good news, there is a ray of hope in there, somewhere.

It appears that, despite rumours circulating that the club would close, it is in fact up for sale, according to reports on various publications of repute (via Resident Advisor). The news comes after an article on Property Week was published, which states that property consultant Edward Symmons has been instructed by joint administrators at PricewaterhouseCoopers to find a buyer for the club.

This, we believe, has all happened in the past 24 hours. Colin White, a partner at Edward Symmons, said:

"Just 24 hours after being appointed, we have already received a number of enquiries from potential purchasers."

He added:

"We anticipate continued interest in the sale of Fabric, particularly from other major club operators in London and the south east, and we are confident that a purchase will be secured for the business as a going concern."

This all comes after sister club Matter, founded by the people who run Fabric, announced that it would close for the summer, following presumed financial difficulties, though nothing such was mentioned in their recent statement. Matter was founded in 2008 in the O2, North Greenwich.

No official word has been given about Fabric's forthcoming line-up schedule since it was put up for sale, though on Friday (May 28) a statement was released saying the club "will very much remain open as normal, business as usual".

Moondance are taking it back to the roots of raving and holding a warehouse rave at a secret location somewhere in Central London. Line-up looks pretty sick too. May have to attend this one!

SKisM - Rave Review. **Watch the Video.**

Watch this... This is Hilarious! Big up SKisM.

Hospital Records (Hospitality) NEW RESIDENCY: Fabric.

Its official. Hospitality has moved to EC1. Fabric will now be hosting London's 3 biggest DnB Residencies! RAM, Hospitality and Playaz! Fabric is now the only place to go for top quality Drum and Bass in London!

Rumours are now circulating all over the internet forums with speculation on Fabric closing their doors after the closure of its sister club; Matter. According to sources the owners are suffering financial difficulties due to the massive losses Matter incurred and apparently they used Fabric as financial collateral to fund the project. Hopefully there is no truth in these rumours. Fingers Crossed...

TUNE! of the week.

RESO vs. VENT - RUMBLE (DC BREAKS REMIX)

Loving DC Breaks at the moment. TUNE!

Blu Mar Ten...

... are SHIT. Saw one of the trio DJing at Fabric on Friday. And i have to say the mixing was awful along with the track selection. No mate, a DnB remix of 'The Killers - When you were young' is not what anyone wants to hear and yes; you looked like a middle aged paedophile sweating over the decks.

RAM : New Venue - FABRIC.

RAM has officially moved to Fabric 'for the forseeable future.' i have to say that i'm pretty excited about this as i prefer Fabric to Matter and it's even better news that in August RAM will be hosting all 3 rooms! All that's left now is to see where Hospitality and FWD re-locate to...

Andy C posted this statement on Facebook yesterday:

As you may have heard, matter have taken the decision to close their doors for the summer months.

We are happy to announce that, for the foreseeable future, our new home will be fabric http://www.fabriclondon.com/
We are very sorry that it has taken a while to make this announcement but we have been waiting for the matter and fabric team to organize the quite complicated shift to Farringdon.

Fabric was already booked for this date so due to the short notice of the relocation we will be teaming up with the Plump DJs for the launch of Grand Hotel Records. They have been kind enough to let us host Rooms 1 and 3 while they will host Room 2 (featuring Plump DJs, Zane Lowe, Dj Zinc, Joker Of The Scene, Starmsith). Given the last minute nature of the venue change we have had to adapt the line up across all rooms for many reasons that were well out of our hands. We hope you understand.

For the August show we will be hosting all 3 rooms of fabric.
All tickets bought for matter will of course be valid for fabric.

Tickets for the event are available from http://www.fabriclondon.com/

DJ Fresh - Kryptonite EP

1. Talkbox
2. Lassitude ft. Koko
3. Kyrptonite
4. Golddust ft. Ce'cile
5. Acid Rain
6. Hypercaine
7. Starfall ft. Val Beestings
8. Chacruna
9. Fight ft. Val Beestings
10. Heavyweight

To be honest i'm a little disappointed with the tracklisting for this album as i have heard half of these before and they have been around for quite some time. Also the fact that there is only 10 tracks is a bit lazy i think. Take a look at Noisia's Album for example. Packed out with tonnes of banging tracks.

OUT JULY 19TH 2010

R.I.P Matter.

It's Official... R.I.P




Officials at the three-floor, 2,600 capacity venue in Greenwich have been working over the past few days to avoid closing permanently. In a statement released yesterday, however, the owners of the 02, AEG, confirmed that the club "has temporarily closed over the summer period with a view to re-launching later in the year. This decision has been taken by the owners of matter. The reopening will be considered over the course of the next few months and we will keep you advised when further information is available."

There is no word at the moment where events scheduled for matter will be moving, but keep an eye out over the course of the next few weeks: Events of this size will surely be finding new homes throughout the city.

Matter R.I.P ? !

It seems that after only two years London's Matter is already closing it's doors.

Had some wicked nights in there at RAM, Hospitality and FWD!

Hopefully the rumours aren't true but it seems it was confirmed last night by one of Matter's resident dj's; DJ YOUSEF on an online forum.

He said: “You may as well hear it from me. Due to many reasons, the main one being the lack of transport to the venue, Matter has shut for the summer. Sad times. They are an amazing bunch down there.” The post was later removed.

Event magazine also reports that Matter lost £1 million in the first year after it opened in 2008, and was £3 million in debt according to the same accounts.

Can't get enough of this guy at the moment. Russian DnB producer Kubrak!



His track Fast Forward is released on BREED 12INCHES (SPOR's Lifted Music sister label). Catalgue No. BRD003.

Mesrine DVD.

Bought this for myself on DVD today whilst out on a trip to Brighton. Watched it once before and had to buy it.

It is the story of France's infamous public enemy No. 1, Jacques Mesrine, last of the great French gangsters. Mesrine is a rollercoaster of bank heists and jail breaks.

Must see film!

Buy it here on play.com.
