ROCKIT SCIENCE GLITTERBALL NYE 2011
by admin on Feb.02, 2012, under Images & Video
Another belated set of pics, this time from NYE 2011….Rockit Science ended a great year in style at the rather plush Lane Bar. All the stops were pulled out decor wise (200 stock-on rockit sperms anyone?) and once again the DJs shone though. We’ll be back in March 2012 with an all St Patrick’s all-dayer so hold tight for that!

These have been hanging around for a while but finally got round to publishing! This was a huge night at the Lockside (official biggest of 2011?), and all DJs played absolute blinders! Add this to maximum efforts all round with the fancy dress, and this was quite an event. MASSIVE!

The politics of envy and politicians getting easy hits in….

Great Editor’s letter in I today, spot on imho!
http://www.independent.co.uk/i/editor/i-editors-letter-fatcat-bankers-6297588.html
i Editor’s Letter: Fatcat bankers
I am probably about to alienate a good proportion of i’s readers, old and new, but the two big stories this week about our so-called fatcat bankers have left me feeling more than a little uneasy.
I do not know Fred Goodwin or Stephen Hester, I don’t bank with RBS, I don’t hate bankers. I do feel they earn far too much for what appears often to be legitimised gambling; have a misplaced sense of importance, fund each other’s lives through non-executive directorships that ensure their club’s inflated rewards carousel keeps turning, benefit from a shameful lack of responsibility, and have too much influence over elected officials.
And yet… The lynch-mob baying for blood and subsequently rejoicing over both Hester declining his bonus and Goodwin being stripped of his knighthood leaves me distinctly uncomfortable on two fronts. I do not feel sorry for them. Money may not buy happiness, but it can buy a degree of privacy and security to help you through your dark days.
I am left far more uneasy by the baying pursuit of two men who have not done anything illegal, and also the triumphalistic manner in which both news stories were received. Both have now suffered a degree of embarrassment or financial penalty. So what? The stories do not show the Government acting on its promise to get tough with bankers. Nothing is solved. These are mere gestures. Hester doesn’t need the £963k, and Goodwin? We all surely know it’s just a silly title?
This is about the politics of envy and politicians getting easy hits in. These events do nothing to fix a system that is in dire need of overhaul. It’s just grand-standing, and we should not fall for it.

303 live @ FLANGESTOCK 2011 – the final hour
by admin on Sep.22, 2011, under Mixes
Yo Yo Yo!
Hot on the heels of “Flangestock 2011 – the movie” comes “Flangestock 2011 – the final hour”. Recorded live & direct at an orchard in Suffolk, 17 September 2011.
Shouts to James Shaman for tech know how. Its a bit rough round the edges due to some serato-esque needle issues (personally I blame the flies), and if you weren’t there you might wonder why the volume cuts at various chorus points, safe to say if you were there you’ll understand why (you were filling in the gaps in true style!). Special shouts out to the dropping of Fantasy UFO – I swear I haven’t played that out in a set since 1990! You also get the closing credits from our beloved host and its worth it for that alone…..
Anyway, its here for all the right reasons – ENJOY!
MASSIVE RESPECTS TO THE WHOLE PARTY CREW WHO MADE IT SUCH A PLEASURE TO PLAY!
There are rumours of a directors cut special edition version on they way – if you want to be part of that, make sure you join the 303mail list (link over to your right) or join the flangestock face book group – in fact go join the group anyway, that way you’ll be able to come next year and grab all the other recorded sets from this year!

How to copy key info from comments field to key field in Serato!
by admin on Aug.17, 2011, under Other Stuff
A while ago I finally, worked out how to copy all key info from the comments field to the key field in serato. Not sure why it took me so long as its blindingly obvious but I do know that no matter how I searched on Google for answers, I never found this easy method. So, here it is:
Assuming you have the key info currently written to your comments field….
- Sort all tracks by order of comments.
- Then select and highlight all 1A tracks (assuming your list of tracks starts at 1A)
- Once you have selected all those tracks marked 1A, double click in the key field of 1 of the tracks, enter 1A and press enter.
- Serato will ask you to confirm you want to update X amount of tracks. Click yes, and it will write 1A to the key field of all those tracks.
- Rinse & repeat.
*** Probably worth backing up everything first just in case you make an error and update a shitload of tracks with the wrong info. Try it with just a small selection first so you understand it.

THE REST

Music runs from around 5pm to 11pm, so make sure you get down early on Friday to get the most out of the weekend.

No music on Sunday but you are welcome to stay and enjoy the site all day!
If you would like to book extra nights you can do that direct with the campsite. Some Flangestockers are staying an extra night on Sunday to further chill!
THE CAMPSITE
The festival takes place at an award winning campsite in Suffolk, your ticket price of £30 for the weekend includes full use of facilities – free hot showers, kitchen area with fridge and freezer and table tennis.
The campsite shop now has a full off licence, with beers, wines, ciders and local specialties. The shop has been extended so you won’t need to leave the site at all for provisions, seriously have a look before going to the supermarket, its very good value and some very tasty stuff, all you need for breakfast, BBQ’s, ice creams, treats, all sorts!
As always there will be wood available to purchase for campfires too, a very important part of the Flangestock experience.
Extra days camping can be booked either side of the weekend direct with the campsite, please explain you are a Flangestock ticket holder.

1st time for me at this laidback & intimate festy, held at the beautiful setting of Petrcane in Croatia. It had everything – aborted plane landings, messed up hire cars, 35 degree+ heat & sun every day, clear waters, boat parties up close with dj heroes and ’nuff bikini. Perfect! Pics & Video below….

The Drop Off! Sessions @ Star of Bethnal Green – Saturday, Mar 5th
by admin on Feb.18, 2011, under Gigs
Lovely jubbly. Always a pleasure to warm things up at The Drop Off Sessions! Come join us on 5th March….the perfect remedy for that post-breakspoll sore head/dodgy tummy
http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#!/event.php?eid=149846761739102
The Drop Off Sessions are back at the fantastic Star of Bethnal Green for their first party of the year
It true TDOS style, expect to hear nothing but bass, beats and party treats from special guests and residents. Topping the bill on the 5th of March is Italian DJ hero Plaza de Funk. Plaza is known for his show-stopping production and mind-bending DJ sets. With Breakspoll awards under his belt, it’s no wonder that Plaza is regul…arly found playing right across the globe.
http://www.myspace.com/plazadefunk
Next Up, TDOS residents and bass heavy duo, 2 Bit Thugs. The Thugs have had a whirlwind career so far and there is no plan to stop just yet. With sets at Bestival, Secret Garden Party, features in DJ Mag, I-DJ, mixes and airtime on XFM, Kiss and Radio 1 and support from diverse artists such as Laurent Garnier, Diplo, DJ Yoda, Tayo, FreQ Nasty and Russ Cuban, 2 Bit Thugs have created a huge buzz for both their production skills and 4 deck DJ shows.
http://soundcloud.com/2-bit-thugs
Kicking things off for the evening will be none other than c o l l i n s 3 0 3 on the wheels of steel. Chris is the DJ’s DJ and knows exactly what to do when it comes to whipping up a frenzy in any situation. With music knowledge and a record collection bigger than your average two bedroom flat, you know you’re in for a treat when c o l l i n s in on the line up.

As per normal, Catch23 will be on duty to fill in the gaps.

GLUE @ Horse & Groom – 19th February
by admin on Jan.28, 2011, under Gigs
Rollin’ into 2011 with some tasty Glue action – always a good night out at what’s rapidly becoming my new favourite eastside disco boozer! With added flavour from the101connection, this one promises to be bang on the money! FREE before 10pm…
http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#!/event.php?eid=135962436466291
Glue @ The Horse & Groom, Shoreditch, 19th Feb with The101Connection!
In February Glue is just a few day’s after Valentine’s so we fully expect you all to turn up to show how much you love Glue, flowers and chocolates are optional but appreciated.
Heading up the party of love will be superstar DJ and world renowned Lothario The101Connection, a DJ who’s emerged from the breaks scene with a stomping style that mashes up hip hop, fu…nk and breaks into an all consuming beats monster. He played Glue in the summer and totalled rocked it, we’re expecting even better this time!
Helping to spread the romance and thumping beats is Collins 303 who’ll be tearing the place up with his usual wild abandon and KidChameleon who’ll get everyone hot under the collar with a mix of naughty little numbers.
And last but not least is our resident DJ and ladies’ favourite, bump, who will be dropping his usual mix of techno, acid house and deep beats – girls, form an orderly queue.
As usual you can check out all the details on our myspace along with links to all the DJs’ pages – http://www.myspace.com/glue_london
To get a taster of Glue, check out mixes from our nights on Soundcloud – http://soundcloud.com/having-a-laugh
And remember it’s on the 19th February, 9pm to 4am, at the Horse & Groom in Shoreditch, London. Remember the venue’s free before 10 so get there early! Though if you do miss out it’s only £4 after which we think is a small price to pay!
Full Lineup:
The101Connection
Collins 303
KidChameleon
bump
As a very special treat we’ve also got bump’s mix from last month to get you in the mood, check it out:
