LAYO AND BUSHWACKA! BIOGRAPHY:
Layo & Bushwacka! is the pseudonym of DJs Layo Paskin and Matthew Benjamin.
Along with Mr. C, Paskin is the co-owner of The End nightclub in London, where Benjamin is the resident DJ. Labelled variously as tech house, house or breakbeat, the pair usually record and DJ together. They are one of the longest-standing duos in dance music.
Benjamin's best known track is his remix of Michael Jackson's Billie Jean. He was raised in London and was a member of the London School Symphony Orchestra, playing percussion. After graduating in sound engineering he started working for Mr. C as he was setting up The End. It was at this point that he first met Paskin.
Paskin is also from London, starting his DJ career at the age of sixteen while working at Camden Market. Soon after he starting DJing at warehouse parties with Mr. C. It was at one of these parties that they discovered the building that would become The End. Paskin's father is an architect and designed the club.
SCOTT CARRELLI BIOGRAPHY:
Famous as an international melting pot and nightlife mecca, San Francisco's club scene has produced some uniquely prominent sounds, a situation well-exploited by DJ/Producer Scott Carrelli. Often billed as progressive house, Carrelli's "contrastflow" sound utilizes progressive, deep house, breaks, electro and techno, melding human energy into an emotional dance floor journey.
His rise in the San Francisco scene started several years ago with his residency at the popular San Francisco weekly, SatelliteSF. It eventually moved to its current home, local hot spot Anu, run by ElectroCelt Promotions, famous for their Hybrid Boat Party aboard a $10 million yacht on which Carrelli's talents were recently featured. SatelliteSF's unique format has enabled Scott to tag-team with select local upcoming and big name DJs alike, giving him consistent access to newer and bigger sounds. Its popularity has attracted and allowed him to play alongside global talents such as Danny Howells, Lee Burridge, Hybrid, Lucien Foort and Sean Cusick. It's his unique sound and SatelliteSF's momentum, however, that keeps Anu bursting at the seams every Wednesday night.
