GIDEÖN
HOMO-CENTRIC RECORDS / NYC DOWNLOW / ADONIS / R3 SOUNDSYSTEM / BLOCK9

GIDEÖN has a background in music spanning 33 years. In addition to his studio practice as a recording artist, his work as a creative director, stage designer and curator, he is also a touring DJ and an avid collector of vinyl. Since his first set of turntables in 1990, GIDEÖN has devoted his life to collecting vinyl from the US, Jamaica, Latin America, Africa, and the UK. He specialises in Northern Soul, Latin, Reggae, Gospel, and Disco rarities. House Music, above all else, is his first and greatest love. 

He is currently Creative Director of a new opera being developed in partnership with English National Opera. He has a degree in Music with Visual Practice (BA Hons) and was guest Creative Director of Music for London Borough of Culture 2022. Recent projects have seen Gideon head up Creative Direction for Dua Lipa’s record breaking Studio 2054, winning the MVA’s Music Video of The Year award. He was production designer for lead artists at Live at Worthy Farm, Glastonbury’s virtual festival livestream. 

As a curator, he programmed two events for Chaka Khan’s Meltdown Festival in summer 2024 and is currently Head of Music at The Roof Gardens in London. Other projects include work with Anohni, Banksy, Imperial War Museum, Finnish Opera House, Hercules & Love Affair, Lana Del Ray, Skrillex, Brian Eno, Roisin Murphey, The Blessed Madonna, Honey Dijon, and Jorja Smith.

GIDEÖN co-founded, co-directs and curates Block9’s festival nightlife institutions The NYC Downlow, Genosys, Maceo’s and IICON at Glastonbury Festival. He is also resident and co-booker at London’s hottest queer club night Adonis. As a radio DJ, GIDEÖN has been actively involved in broadcasting for over three decades. Since cutting his teeth on London’s pirate stations in the late nineties, he hosted a weekly show on London’s Soho Radio for 3 years. Recent guest appearances include New York’s Beats In Space, London’s Rinse FM, NTS Radio and BBC 6 Music. He recently held a residency at BBC Radio 1.

GIDEÖN has been involved in political activism his entire life and is now increasingly focussed on organising hybrid cultural-political events partnering music and protest, often under the banner of R3 Soundsystem. Together with charities Love Music Hate Racism & Stand Up To Racism, GIDEÖN has organised major sound system interventions on many of the Stop Brexit and Stop Trump and Anti-Fascism protests. He is actively involved with fundraising for several LGBTQ+, human rights and social justice organisations including AllOut, Medical Aid For Palestinians, Prepster, Human Dignity Trust and Refugee Community Kitchen. GIDEÖN sits on the advisory committee for The Right to Dance, part of War Child’s NGO Network.

R3 Soundsystem is a consortium of DJs, musicians, producers, record labels, festivals, nightclubs, sound systems, activists, and cultural organisations, all united by love of music and the rejection of right-wing nationalist values. R3’s three Rs stand for RESIST/REJECT/REVOLT.

GIDEÖN’s House Music label HOMO-CENTRIC RECORDS launched to showcase both his solo productions and collaborations with close queer comrades. The label focusses on the LGBTQ+ heritage of House and attempts to pay homage to its lost heroes. Its manifesto states the intent to re-establish the lines of queer musical tradition at the heart of House, lost to AIDS and the capitalist desecration of dance music itself.

Pad-L©k Recordings is a London Based record label run by DJ fulla-D / FutureStix & Crazy J, and is part of the Twisted Management Group which include the labels "Twisted Records" & "Twisted Wax"
We initially kicked off the label with the our 1st release on 10" vinyl "Review at the bottom" with another 1 due for release in the near future. Currently we are stepping up a gear and delving into the Digital side of music with an E.P. soon to be dropped only in this format .
  
Bio:

Fulla-D / FutureStix started his D&B beginnings at the age of 14 using his humble Amiga 500, producing simple Hardcore and Jungle tracks using just 4 channels and 8-Bit samples. The Amiga was his musical tool for the next 6 years, linking up with other well known producers like DJ Ren, Mickey Finn, Bizzy B and Shy FX who all had experience using the Amiga platform, which helped him develop his style and skills in production. At the age of 18 he began DJing which is a logical step forward in this game. He named himself Da Hitman, and would start every DJ set with the then anthem The Hitman by Cutty Ranks, and believe me he played that Bloody Jungle Music ALL NIGHT!!!
He managed to get bookings for clubs and was always in demand for all the house party’s across South London.
The highlight for him back then was getting his first Dub Plate cut at the age of 19, he says “I remember walking out of JTS in Hackney with this 10 inch Dub Plate stinking of acetate, in that famous mustard colour sleeve thinking I’m the dogs bollocks! What made it better was the fact it had JTS on the label which just happened to be the initials of my name. Very proud moment for myself indeed”. 
Spending hours and years perfecting his mixing finally paid off when he became self-employed as a DJ Tutor, producing and teaching his very own branded successful DJ Workshops courses.
During this time he was also running the studio (Manic Compression) and putting himself through college doing Sound Engineering & Music Tech courses.
He crossed over into other genres, experimenting with 2-step Garage and Break Beat which got him his first regular radio shows playing that kind of music. But Fulla couldn’t escape from his first love and decided to head back into his beloved D&B again.
He now has his own unique style and sound starting to take shape in the studio. Also he is on the verge of finishing the work required for his label, Pad-L©k Recordings.
Fulla says “After dedicating 20 years to the scene I feel I’ve gained enough to finally push forward. The idea of the label Pad-L©k Recordings has been there since 1998, but I needed all this time to make sure everything and everyone is in place. The label is a vehicle for myself and a few close friends to reach the next level of the journey.
At the start of 2010 I decide to scale back my DJ'ing and concentrate my efforts to my productions. I will now go under the name "FutureStix or Hugh Deenie" for production but will retain the name Fulla-D for DJ'ing

Crazy J flips the script on&nbsp;Hot Foot&nbsp;with deep subs and steppy drums on this subtle but deadly roller.

I'm a Drum & Bass DJ/promoter from Derby known as Darkrider that's been involved in the Rave scene for around 30 years.I would call myself a Drum & Bass fanatic, as I've followed the progression of breakbeat culture in the UK since the very early 90's from rave/hardcore to jungle through to DNB. I promoted my own event called Timewarp in Derby, which was very successful and had a large following...
