NYE!

Welcome, astral ravers, to the return to the the C3 of the Zodiac project. After last year's throwdown, in essence the birth of the Zodiac series, it was impossible to resist another gathering at the CCCB's charming C3 bar, who have this year granted us an extended timeframe to ensure every single party person in the place to be has the possibility to lose themselves in the style of this month's sponsor, Capricorn.

We have a stellar collection of spinners ready to lay it down from the grapes til the early morn. weird grooves and unsettling sounds will be provided by Sonic Reducer aka Arnau Sabate, the brain behind A Viva Veu. Slick Dixxx and Taser T make up a new syndicate specialising in soundtracks to any self-respecting illegal activity, and it goes by the name of C.R.I.M.E. DJ G and Fabian Roelandt will keep things rolling with a pristine selection of inter-generic club joints, while we are delighted to welcome back Ari Up to destroy the area round after round of dancefloor missiles. Special guesting on the bill will be Swedish tag-team Bella Boo & Ominous K, bringing the ultimate there could be in futuristic beats.

Tickets are still going for 10 euros in advance, exclusively from Discos Paradiso: hurry that ass up though, they sold out last time around. Those getting in before one will enjoy a reduced price of 12 euros, and my fashionably-late team best have 15 euros ready to pay our charming public relations team.

So. the location is central, the bar prices reasonable, the selectors on top of their games, the system banging, and the company charming. Join us for the latest rising of Zodiac.

Let's Disco

This Thursday I'm sneaking in through the back door to a spot I have yet to grace ni as DJ nor as guest: Marula.

It's a town-centre jump-off, I'm on at one and the place is supposed to be an authentic glitz-trip so anyone into raw live disco thuds and funk sections rounded off by a little roots of chicha best get theyself down.

All At Skweee

YO!

Get your earoles round this new recompilation of original machine funk from Paris-based Tiburoni Records featuring the first official release from PDJ cohort Fitzroy North.

Listen and buy right here.

Hallowe'en Misery & Confusion

Hi fiends,

Here's a mixtape that only people who are literally right on the edge of good/evil/don't know; played to those of weak constitution it may push you into the next category.

If I'm not impaled, I will be spinning this brand of audio molestation at Sameheads in Berlin this Sunday whilst people eat fried food, possibly of human origin.

It's going to be foul, don't come.

Steady Flossin'

This weekend I've been invited to the type of place so posh that James Bond's boss would have trouble getting into, the Hotel Me in Poblenou.

If you're feeling glamourous come down (up?) to the elevated bar and check me out backed up by the ever classy team from Elegant Distortion.

TWO BIG MIXES FROM BELLA BOO!

Here is Bella Boo with two great mixes for swedish national radio P3. Presenting one dubstep-crunk mix and the latest more dusk garage tones with clean mixing and some great selection! New tracks from Sully, Photek, Boddika, Azeila Banks, LV and many more!!! Get it plus tracklist right hurr

Bella Boo is a part of the DJ/artist collective PÅDRAG and also represented by the All Out Dubstep crew!

Zodiac's Back

Making tentative steps back into the field of party-throwing, here's the one-time World's Most Famous Virgin sitting atop a flyer for this weekend's most unmissable masked-disco party in Poblenou.

Some blurb I half wrote:

"An intimate event dedicated to the most virtuous of cumpleanyeros, Masked Ballers Burn Baby Burn combine with Astral Amblers Zodiac to present VIRGO.

"So innocent are our hosts that they insist all identities at the event remain hidden behind masks as the select certain someones gather to rejoice at the turning of another constellation.

"Providing sounds of playful variety and surprising depth will be SUNNY GRAVES, known on occasion as JAHBITAT, SLICK DIXXX, and DJ ROGER C.

"The venue is a precious corner of Poblenou, so far ignored by the socialites, whose cosy bar and dancefloor is uninfringed by curtain-twitching neighbour types.
"Both timetable and guest list are strictly limited, so make sure your 4 euro advance payment is made in good time to one of the event's 'administrators' and that you are there plenty early."


Making use of all the disco I picked up in England's cheap and pleasant charity shops, here's a special mix one time for your mind:
