Revive Launch Party with Inxec & Real Connoisseur
Saturday, 15th June 2013
Nomad, 58 Old Street,EC1V 9AJ
LINE-UP

INXEC

Over the past 5 years Nottingham born, Munich based INXEC has been carving out a reputation as one of the most innovative producers in house and techno

With his tracks getting hammered by the likes of Ricardo Villalobos, Sven Vath, Richie Hawtin, Luciano and many more, its not hard to see why INXEC is in such high demand both in the studio and behind the decks

During the last 4 years Chris's constant dj gigs and touring has seen him play some of the worlds most prestigious clubs including Fabric, The Cross, London, Watergate Berlin, Minimal Hospital in Italy, as well as a much lauded residency at Harry Klien in Munich, which sees him grace the decks at least once a month where touring permits

With more hit releases and remixes on their way as well as tour of the USA, its clear that INXEC's star is firmly in ascendance

REAL CONNOISSEUR

A 19 year old producer/DJ from Oxford who has been immersed in music for his entire life

His father a Garage DJ, his mother obsessed with 70s and 80s Soul and Disco

It was no surprise that Conor was to step onto the UK music scene

His music keeps roots in garage but joins the British uprising of young producers, with electronic pads and synths that wash over pounding sub bass and swinging percussion

For such a young producer, his style sounds refined and matured, this is party down to his production journey starting 6 years ago

For a first outing, his track on Purp & Soul's album 'Faux De Baux' exceeded expectations

Entering the Beatport Deep House Chart at No.17, it has become a staple track in label owner's Ben Pearce's sets of late

BBC Radio 1 have already been listening closely along with many others, Real Connoisseur joined Purp & Soul's roster late in 2012 and is undoubtedly one to watch in 2013

After a very busy few months writing and recording their E.P. plus playing shows with the likes of Sleep Decade, House Of Light (Berlin), High Society (NZ) and many more, The Primary are resting up for a month and taking a well earned break. But did really you think that your favourite star craft playing, cat obsessive, Bundoora referencing, tramway infastructure loving noise rockers were going to do that quietly? To satisfy their need to be in your face The Primary are playing a "taking a breather for a month" show at their old stomping ground of The Evelyn Hotel, Fitzroy on Thursday June the 6th with Skyways Are Highways, The Kilniks and Casey Hartnett (Sleep Decade).

DARKBEAT 10th Birthday w/ JOHN DIGWEED (UK) [Bedrock] + ANTHONY PAPPA
Sunday, 9th June 2013
The Prince of Wales, 29 Fitzroy St, St Kilda

We are very excited to announce DARKBEAT's 10th BIRTHDAY Party featuring JOHN DIGWEED (UK) [BEDROCK] (Exclusive Extend Set) & Anthony Pappa on SUNDAY 9th JUNE. & in true Darkbeat tradition this will be an epic 13HR DAY / NIGHT PARTY! @ Prince Bandroom.

Darkbeat celebrates 10 years of being at the forefront of Melbourne's underground on Sunday June 9. It's no surprise Darkbeat has gone on to position itself as Australia's foremost underground dance music club promoter and tastemaker, having toured and hosted the world's most leading and sought after acts such as Sasha, Sven Vath, Derrick Carter, Claude VonStoke, Stanton Warriors, Pendulum, J00F, Loco Dice, Seth Troxler, Adam Beyer, & Steve Lawler just to name a few. Darkbeat's loyal followers know that anything with the Darkbeat brand on it is a seal of quality and approval that they can trust and over the last 10 years they have seen hundreds and thousands of underground music lovers attend their events. Of late, their association with the national festival brands like Stereosonic (Australia's biggest festival) and Summadayze (Australia's biggest New Year's Day festival) has seen their profile skyrocket even further, plus hosting club shows anywhere and everywhere across the country.

We would like to thank every single person who has been apart of the Darkbeat vibe over the last 10 years and we hope you can join us at and celebrate the very special occasion at a venue we have never utilised before - The Prince Of Wales, joining us will also be a DJ we have sought after for many years - Mr John Digweed (UK) [Bedrock]. It feels almost full circle that John Digweed will finally get to play a Darkbeat event and what better way than our 10th Birthday!

Alongside John Digweed, we have one of our Darkbeat's longest standing favourite Djs joining this huge occasion to help celebrate our turning the big 1-0 in true style. So we are pleased to announce the addition of the Australian legend, Mr Anthony Pappa.

After all of the highlights he has given us over our 10 years as Darkbeat we feel it's the perfect fit that he finally graces his presents for his first appearance at one of our official Darkbeat Birthday Party show.

As per usual we will have more specials surprises coming, so stay tuned and watch this space for a trip memory lane.

For the first surprise we can announce.

After 2 years Darius Bassiray & Rollin Connection (aka Daniel Banko) will be playing back to back warming up for John Digweed once again under the 'former / original' Rollin Connection guise bringing it in proper birthday fashion! - (This will be the first time playing back together again in just on 2 years and plan on bringing something very special for this huge occasion)

This is a day / night party which starts at 5pm & we are kicking off the madness from the get go so we advise you arrive early .

 

 

 

JOHN DIGWEED (UK) [BEDROCK]

Some DJ careers are built on hype. John Digweed's career is built on substance. One of the planet's most popular DJs, his sets never fall out of favour with clubbers the world over, as his relentless global gig schedule testifies. From ethereal, swirling cinematic soundscapes to energy-infused bass-bothering tech growlers, a new generation of clubbers are learning what we already know - that there's nothing quite like being locked into a John Digweed set.

But John Digweed is much more than a DJ. Bedrock - his record label, promotions company and production partnership with Nick Muir - is a mothership of creative ingenuity and integrity that other labels orbit around. His vision for the Bedrock record label has been realized over 12 years, as he continuously seeks out mixes and remixes from the world's best producers. Techno mainstays like Marco Bailey, Christian Smith and John Selway sit comfortably alongside hot new talent like Guy J in the Bedrock camp.

In a dance scene increasingly inhabited by inflated egos and gimmicks, John's approach remains all drive, no drama, a heads-down crack-on attitude that has won him the respect of his peers. However, the fact remains that John Digweed has notched up a mighty list of groundbreaking achievements since he first became involved in the embryonic acid house scene as a 15-year-old lad in Hastings. From Top 40 smashes 'Heaven Scent' and 'For What You Dream Of' (with Nick Muir) to world renowned mix CDs for Renaissance, GU and Northern Exposure, it's little surprise he was voted No.1 DJ in the World by DJmag readers in 2001.

Ten years on, the excitement John Digweed generates is even more palpable today. With Nick he has scored a Hollywood film (Stark Raving Mad) and Spiderman`s animated series for Sony/MTV. toured with David Bowie and Moby, and transformed Brighton Beach into the UK's biggest beach party (250, 000 people) with Fatboy Slim. His Transitions, Bedrock and Structures albums continue to turn new fans on worldwide, Bedrock's recent 12th birthday party at London's O2 Brixton Academy was a road-blocked sell-out and his Transitions radio show is one of the world's most successful dance music shows, broadcast across 45 countries to a staggering weekly audience of over 14 million.

But the real beauty in John Digweed's story lies in his unflinching belief in the music he plays. And with new music comes new chapters in an already astonishing career.

 


ANTHONY PAPPA (AUS / UK)

In 1994, frustrated at being halfway around the world from where the music he loved was happening, Anthony decided to re-locate to England's capital. It wasn't long before his talents were picked up by a core group of the UK's biggest DJ's, who together forged a strong squad of players that would shape the sounds that have been constantly evolving and always pushing the boundaries over the last two decades and will continue to do so for many years to come.

Upon more recent years, the end of 2010 improved further on previous years for Anthony by an even busier touring schedule including just over 100 performances in total at various clubs and festivals over the globe. This was also the year Anthony was selected to mix the cover mount CD for DJ Mag's coveted Top 100 DJ's edition. The mix has received high praise from all the big hitters and industry professionals alike. Alongside DJing, Production was key to Anthony's success with high profile releases including his massive collaboration with King Unique called "Vamoosh" released on Bedrock.

2011/12 was a year of change for Anthony, with his move to the world renowned B4Bookings Agency standing alongside fellow DJ's the likes of Davide Squillace, Marco Carola, Slam & Paco Osuna to name but a few. On top of this, Anthony had been in the studio creating new tracks that would pleasantly surprise his adoring followers whilst simultaneously creating an entirely new fan base and continuing touring throughout south America, Mexico, & Europe.

Anthony was excited when he first heard about this project, which has allowed him to do something a little different from his live shows and bring an extra element to his musical portfolio & with a style which is close to his heart. Having still incorporated all of Anthonys unique, trademark defining "track selection, journey build, & precision mixing skills" coupled with his overall way of making things just pop - This mix is one that will be talked about for many years to come.

Now in 2013, after just having completed this mix cd for Darkbeat / Darkbeat Recordings Anthony's gig diary looking as healthy as ever, including an extended tour of his homeland, Australia as well as dates booked all over the world, combined with big plans for the studio again, 2013 is shaping up to be another big year for Anthony.

 

SUNDAY 9th JUNE @ PRINCE (Bandroom)

Support from:

Rollin Connection b2b Darius Bassiray (again for the first time in 2 years), Phil K,

Alam (Back from KL), Lister Cooray, Jon Beta + More TBA

Time: 5pm til 6am (13 Hour Day / Night Party)

Friday, 7th June 2013
The Met, 256 Wickham Street, Fortitude Valley

GET TRASHED WITH ONE OF THE BIGGEST DJS ON THE PLANET RIGHT NOW!! AUSTRALIA'S VERY OWN TOMMY TRASH EXCLUSIVE BRISBANE SHOW!!

Fist in the air and unmistakable locks at large, Tommy Trash is not your stereotypical Dance icon. With an armoury of his own carefully created anthems, he has thrown to one side the clean-shaven image of EDM idols. Outside of his party-hard stage presence, the Grammy Award nominated producer's approach to mind-blowing music remains as heartfelt as they come. Having released on labels ranging from Axtone to Fool's Gold, and from Refune to Mau5trap, including 2 successive #1 hits on Beatport, every new installment of his poignant floor filling productions lay testament to the pride the Aussie takes in his blazing musical legacy. Tommy's high-profile remix duties for the Swedish House Mafia, Deadmau5, Steve Aoki and Zedd amongst others indicate demand for his delinquent House cuts are sky high. It is no wonder the likes of Rolling Stone and MTV have marked him out as 'One To Watch'.

With global club culture spiraling to such unfathomable heights, Tommy has had little trouble fitting the bigger bills now associated with his craft. From the most prestigious nightspots around the globe to the ever-expanding global festivals that he so seamlessly conquers, there is no stage too grand or miniscule for him to tailor his adrenaline fuelled turntable dexterity to. In line with his successive industry triumphs, the road ahead looks set to comfortably accommodate the intense energy and unique characteristics that Tommy continues to bring to dance music. With a host of incredible tracks soon to drop as well as a residency at the brand new Hakkasan nightclub in Las Vegas and main-stage performances at some of the world's biggest festivals, 2013 is looking like Tommy's biggest year yet.

Having still incorporated all of Anthonys unique, trademark defining "track selection, journey build, & precision mixing skills" coupled with his overall way of making things just pop - This mix is one that will be talked about for many years to come.

Now in 2013, after just having completed this mix cd for Darkbeat / Darkbeat Recordings Anthony's gig diary looking as healthy as ever, including an extended tour of his homeland, Australia as well as dates booked all over the world, combined with big plans for the studio again, 2013 is shaping up to be another big year for Anthony.

The MET presents MixMash Records Tour featuring Oliver Twizt & Uberjak'd
Friday, 31st May 2013
The Met, 256 Wickham Street, Fortitude Valley

The MET & Soapbox Artist brings you the Mixmash Records Australian Tour, Friday 31st May featuring Dutch electro house producer/DJ Oliver Twizt and rising star of the Australian scene and new Mixmash signing, Uberjak'd.

Founded in 2004, Mixmash Records started out as a label primarily focused on label head honcho Laidback Luke's own releases. Under Laidback Luke's supervision and utilising his legendary production skills and drive, Mixmash's international label profile gained its current AAA status and reputation. A vast array of both industry giants and talented uprisers havealready found their home at Mixmash Records. Such names, as Tiesto, A-trak, Steve Aoki, Steve Angello, Afrojack, Sidney Samson, Tocadisco, Avicii are all part of Mixmash' impressive catalog.

Born in The Netherlands, Oliver Twizt has been scouring the local record shops ever since he can remember. Oliver's first solo track featuring MC Roga 'Do The Monkey' entered the UK Buzz Charts at number four and got wide support by the likes of Roger Sanchez, Sander van Doorn, Carl Cox, Judge Jules and many more. Quite soon Oliver started taking over charts with tracks like 'Underground', 'Finally' (with Bart B More, #2 Beatport Chart), 'Another Step' and remixing Bart B More, Sander van Doorn, Erick E and many more.

Joining the Mixmash family is Adelaide native Uberjak'd. Voted #9 nationally in the inthemix top 50 DJ poll and #1 in SA, Uberjak'd recently mixed and toured the Ministry of Sound Clubbers Guide to 2013. With a reputation for partying and Dj-ing ALL night, Uberjak'd is the cause behind many a broken curfew, blistered heel and disco hangover. His superhero motto of delivering a good time to the world, and his fans, as well as his undying passion for music, make Uberjak'd one of the strongest young talents in the Australian dance community.



The MET presents the Stafford Brothers
Saturday, 8th June 2013
The Met, 256 Wickham Street, Fortitude Valley

The Stafford Brothers are undoubtedly the hottest story in "Down Under" dance music invading the great continents of the globe as the Aussie onslaught of EDM madness continues from Sydney to San Francisco, London to Los Angeles. Twice voted the number one DJ's in Australia in as many years (ITM Awards) brothers Matt & Chris Stafford are now based in the U.S, with residencies in New York, Las Vegas and Hollywood. They are the first DJ's to have their own network TV show currently syndicated in over twenty countries, have recently remixed artists as diverse as Timbaland, Wolfgang Gartner, Snoop Dogg & Akon and are the only DJs to be asked to rework the official theme song of arguably one of the biggest sporting team on the planet, Real Madrid. World domination is imminent as the press announce yet another historic moment in cross-genre pop culture music; the Stafford Brothers sign to Cash Money Records joining the YMCMB family with the likes of Lil Wayne, Nicki Minaj & Drake.

The story begins on the dance-floor over a decade ago when these brothers in arms took to the decks for the first time at a humble lounge bar in the heart of the Gold Coast, Australia. Flash forward to the present and the Stafford Brothers are regular fixtures on the world stage, a must-have ticket experience for lovers of electro and progressive house music playing shows at iconic clubs, venues and festivals. As producers they exploded onto the local circuit overnight with their first release 'More than a Feeling', a dance cover version of the classic Boston title. 'Wherever' became an anthem in their homeland narrowly missing out on the #1 spot by one place (ARIA club charts) and has since become the theme song of their TV show. 

A string of original club records followed on heavyweight dance labels such as Ministry Of Sound, Cr2, Toolroom, Defected, Armada and Stealth to name a few. To this day they have remixed some of the biggest names in the game and more recently have teamed up with US superstars working on forthcoming records to be delivered via the game-changing stable of Cash Money Records. Their debut CMR release titled "Hello" features none other than Lil Wayne and Christina Milian. Pre-worldwide release the single is already storming headlines and flooding search engines with positive praise. More unconventionally, in 2011, the Stafford Brothers where asked to rework the official theme song of Real Madrid. 'Everybody' (Hala Madrid) was released to over 26 Million Real Madrid Facebook fans and features the iconic 'super-club' players in the official film clip. 

As for DJ performances their main-stage break came in 2010 when they were announced as the support act for The Prodigy on their Australian Stadium Tour. This performance caught the eye of touring giants Future Entertainment who billed them as the official host of Future Music Festival's main-stage; an honor they still share today. Each year over 100, 000 revelers flood the open field floor as they play multiple sets in between artists such as The Chemical Brothers, Ke$ha, Swedish House Mafia, Fatboy Slim, Jesse J and Skrillex. 

From Miami to Ibiza, Whistler to Warsaw, the Stafford Brothers have continued their onslaught of dance-floor destruction across the globe. This extraordinary reach attracted the attention of international TV Producers. In January 2011, the FOX network premiered Season One of 'The Stafford Brothers'; the first reality TV show about DJ's to hit the box. Thousands of Australians tuned in to watch the trials and tribulations of the rising DJ in a cutthroat industry. The show is currently being filmed on location in the United States for a third season whist Seasons One & Two are syndicated on various networks internationally. 

Whilst the Stafford Brothers are now based in LA, they continue to fly the flag for dance music in Australia. They are major shareholders in three of the hottest nightclubs showcasing national and international artists each week; co-own the premium artist touring & management outfit '360 Agency' and have weekly slots on the highest syndicated chain of commercial radio networks. Their TV show has shared an exclusive insight into the world of the DJ stretching well beyond the dance community and in 2013 the Stafford Brothers are destined to cement their statue as household names. What happens on tour, no longer stays on tour as the Stafford Brothers take leaps and bounds into unexplored territories like no other.



John Digweed
Friday, 7th June 2013
Villa Nightclub, 187 Stirling Street, Perth, WA

John Digweed doesn't need hype. Producer. DJ. Industry legend. A career built on substance. One of the planet's most popular DJs, his sets never fall out of favour.

First, we gave you DJ Sasha. Now we're set to bring you another icon of electronic dance music, JOHN DIGWEED. Don't miss him at Villa on Friday 7 June.

John Digweed doesn't need hype. Producer. DJ. Industry legend. A career built on substance. One of the planet's most popular DJs, his sets never fall out of favour.

Like a dance music fairy tale, his DJ remix tape caught the ear of the legendary Renaissance promoter and WHAM, he was working with Sasha. Soon a 'Renaissance' CD compilation containing some of their best remixes was released. The album was a surprise huge seller, warranting a follow-up, the whopping 'Renaissance 2'. Sasha and Digweed continued their collaboration with the Northern Exposure series, compiling the duo's best remixes for other artists. Digweed scored Top 40 hits with 'Heaven Scent' and 'For What You Dream Of' (with Nick Muir - featured in the movie Trainspotting) and a Top 30 hit with a remix of Chakra's 'I Am'. Digweed also bought a dance club in the south of England in order to perform and promote on a weekly basis. As visionaries do.

Via the Global Underground mix series, he released volumes recorded in Sydney and Hong Kong during 1998, then premiered Bedrock - his combination label and production concern - in late 1999. Bedrock is a mothership of creative ingenuity and integrity that other labels orbit around and is still killing it 14 years on (Bedrock 14, compiled as always by Digweed, dropped in October 2012).

Laurels? Resting? Not Digweed. His Transitions radio show is one of the world's most successful dance music shows, broadcast across 45 countries to a staggering weekly audience of over 14 million.
    
In a dance scene increasingly inhabited by inflated egos and gimmicks, John's approach remains all drive, no drama, a heads-down crack-on attitude that has won him the respect of his peers. However, the fact remains that John Digweed has notched up a mighty list of groundbreaking achievements since he first became involved in the embryonic acid house scene as a 15-year-old lad in Hastings.

But the real beauty in John Digweed's story lies in his unflinching belief in the music he plays. And with new music comes new chapters in an already astonishing career.

From ethereal, swirling cinematic soundscapes to energy-infused bass-bothering tech growlers, a new generation of clubbers are learning what we already know - that there's nothing quite like being locked into a John Digweed set.
