CATCH ME AT:
I LOVE…
31 MAY FABRIC
KARMA KID ‘IN MY ARMS’
I’ll be in my hometown at the end of May and heading to Fabric to play for Urban Nerds. You can catch me alongside EZ, Breakage and many more across the club’s three rooms. If you can’t make it, fear not; Urban Nerds are also hosting the Streetfest after party on 5 May.
Karma Kid has had a fantastic year with his first single 'It's Always' getting plays on both Radio 1 and Rinse FM, plus a supportive nod from Disclosure. He stormed through the rest of 2012 with a load of successful remixes and now he's ready to release his next single, 'In My Arms'. First debuted on my In New DJs show, the feel good vibes, summer chords and rolling vocal make for a sure-fire festival banger.
BUSSEY BUILDING PECKHAM East London has long had more than its fair share of nights, so it's only natural that the party has started to move elsewhere. Bussey Building in Peckham seems to be becoming one of the venues of choice south of the River. It's a dark and dingy top-floor club with whitewashed walls, brick work and pillars; a great space for a tucked-away rave and it also has a rooftop!
PAUSE LIVERPOOL 25 MAY LOVE SAVES THE DAY I’ll be playing at this Bristolian festival in May and I can't wait! I’m sure Trap is already giving it plenty of love in this issue, but I had to mention this party here. You can catch me alongside Oneman, AlunaGeorge, Bicep, Dusky, Jackmaster, Rudimental, Shy FX and a whole lot more!
ONE TO WATCH SHADOW CHILD A new project from an already established DJ and producer, this alias has been around for a hot minute. With a hefty number of remixes under his belt, including Delphic and Lianne La Havas, plus a release on house don Claude Von Stroke’s dirtybird, this will surely be his year.
Garage is very much rooted in London, but Liverpool is flying the UKG flag high by dedicating a whole night to it! I guess with the influx of garage Soundcloud kids coming through, it's quite fitting in a city heavily populated with students. Held in the dark and dingy Shipping Forecast, the next night includes Oxide & Neutrino alongside Mele & Slick Don doing a strictly garage set.
