POW! @ Knowhere (Promo Video)

POW! every Thursday @ Knowhere Bar from JD. on Vimeo.

This is how it goes down at POW! every Thursday night @ Knowhere in Norwich.

My good friend DJ Shiftee just played there last week, which went down a storm.

Shouts to Dave, Tom and George!

Prang! Tonight at The Cornershop, Shoreditch...

I'm playing here tonight. Come down and say hello!

Happy Halloween!

Normally I'd be sitting at home watching a million and one horror films, but instead tonight I'll be DJ-ing at Ministry of Sound alongside Chase & Status, Tempz, Martelo, Spyro, Crissy Criss; and my good friends the Murkage Cartel... For more details, click here

This Friday: POW! @ Mustard Lounge

Tomorrow night sees the return of Norwich's favourite eclectic event.

Dubbed as simply "house party in a club", expect filthy tunes, wobbly bass, cheap booze, and a load of inebriated club-goers throwing some shapes on the dance floor.

I'll be there doing my thing along with regular blog contributor Juxtaposer, plus there will be DJ sets from Guise, Dash, Fazhands and more...If you're in the area, come down!

Urban Nerds & ATG on NYE!

Okay, so it's probably a little bit early to be getting excited about NYE (considering we haven't even celebrated Halloween yet), but trust me, this party is going to be huge.

Urban Nerds & ATG both put on sick events, and the fact they're teaming up for a NYE special means that it's gonna be big. Alot, in fact. Location/venue and lineup is to be confirmed, but there are some early bird tickets for £10 which you can cop here. Be quick though, as these are liable to sell out fast!

Tomorrow Night in Birmingham...

I'll be spinning at The Rainbow in Birmingham @ "Goonies". I'll be joined by Rossi B & Luca, and Klose One.

Expect everything from Hip Hop, to Dubstep, UK Funky, Electro Grime, UKG & more! Basically, big basslines and lot of wobbliness....

If you're in the area, round up a few friends, come down any say "hello". Just don't f*cking ask for any Lady Gaga. Or there will be trouble.

"Alizé Remixed 2008" Tour Recap

So I finally got the pictures off my digital camera and uploaded them...Here's how the "Alizé Remixed 2008" Tour went down at Paper in London the other week...

If you haven't been to Paper (Café Royal) before, it's pretty swanky...and pretty expensive too! Luckily I wasn't really drinking that night, otherwise I could have easily spent a crazy amount (luckily there were drinks vouchers on standby!). However, the decor's pretty nice, as is the soundsystem....

So after arriving at 6pm(ish) for the soundchecks, I got to meet two of the other Remixed winners who were also spinning on the night - E Double D (the Birmingham heat winner) and DJ Stampeeder (the Leeds heat winner). We also got to chop it up with Grandmaster Flash as well before the event...





E Double D



DJ Stampeeder



One of the Jump Off dudes was down filming the event...If I remember correctly, it may make MTV Base...I'll keep you all updated.

Crowd shots:





Stampeeder smacked it with a Baltimore and Electro selection, whilst E Double D pulled out some sick old school R&B and Rare Groove joints....





Now, the original plan was for us three to spin for about 30 mins each in the 2nd room, with Flash coming on in the main room afterwards...As things had got slightly delayed during the night my set got moved to the main room, and was pushed back right until the end of the night after Flash had been on and done his thing - meaning I had the closing set of the tour....No pressure at all then....

As I had to spin for the last 45 minutes of the night, nearly every big tune had been played by the that point. I knew I couldn't go down the Hip Hop & Funk route, as Flash had smacked it with that. So I just decided to mash things up with a mixture of UK Garage (Maxwell D's "Serious" killed it!), House, New Jack Swing, R&B and some Hip Hop, finishing off with bit of Motown....It did the trick....



Overall, it was a great experience, and I met a lot of cool people too. Thanks to Alizé for putting on the event as well as the competition...Definitely one of my most memorable nights so far as a DJ.

Lastly, shouts to everyone from Uproar - Sam, Julian, Aron, Jag and Chelcie, Bluntwun who managed to pass through as well, E Double D, Stampeeder and also H20 who was in the building...

Oh, and last but not least....



In the words of Gollum, "my precious!" I'm gonna be saving these for Xmas & NYE....

Bobby Valentino in Colchester this Saturday (5th April)

Yep, it's official....Bobby Valentino will be performing at Route Nightclub in Colchester, Essex (UK) this coming Saturday....Best get there early, as it's most likely gonna be full up with screaming Essex girls....

With support from yours truly and the usual residents....
