2008 kicked off in fine style for the world of Hard House, with a host of new nights, new
labels, new DJs, and fantastic new tracks from brilliant new production talent supporting
the scene-stalwarts. Nothing has epitomised this new energy and outlook more than Hi
Oktane, the night started by Adam M and his brother Simon in Leeds. The last Hi Oktane in
January packed in a fresh-faced, up-for-it crowd who stayed right until the final kick
drums pounded the My House sound system. The DJs were excellent, the music was fresh and
vibrant, and the event was the talk of the message boards. Rather than sit back, there
has been more effort put in to making the next Hi Oktane a better party, with more energy
put in to securing an even better line-up of DJs. With that in mind, please put your hands
together for: Hi Oktane vs Vicious Circle!!

Topping the line-up we have the undisputed kings of Hard House, two people who have
pushed the scene forward from the earliest days of Trade in the South and Insomniacz in
the North and need no introduction. Performing a rare B2B set, we have Vicious Circle
regular Andy Farley, and label boss Paul Glazby. Between them they have been responsible
for some of the very biggest tracks and remixes of all time including ‘Hostile’,
‘Khemikal Imbalance’, ‘Kick It’, ‘Barriers’, ‘Dreams’ remix and ‘Good
Side’ remix, and are still producing bombs today. With forthcoming tracks on Vicious,
Tripoli Trax, and Tidy, their set will inevitably be something very very special
Originally seen as the protégé of the Vicious Circle boss, Ben Stevens is now
considered by many to be the best technical DJ out there. Ben has accumulated a raft of
the highest quality release on Vicious and many other labels over the years, and recently
launched his own ‘Fireball’ imprint, which is looking good for the future, and
completed his first appearance on Tidy Trax. Cyberkitten resident Lucy Fur is the most
recent addition to the Red Management team, and having cut her teeth DJing up and down
the country for Frantic, Polysexual, and Tidy Extreme Euphoria, has recently completed
tracks signed to Hardsounds, Volatile and Toolbox. She will be mixing one CD of the
forthcoming Toolbox album, and between these two you can sure of a sublime set.
