Lyrics and music by Duncan and Drakey (A)

Dj Dan Cartel (Deep Cartel soundsystem/Country Gents/Deep Cartel Recordings) has 20 years experience behind the turntables. Involved in the party scene since 1990 Dan first used a set of Technics Dj`ing at a friends house party in Weston-Super-Mare in 1992. 
Dan started playing at illegal raves and free parties in `94 when in his opinion "the music on the south-west scene had become too hard so something had to be done". 
Dan quickly picked up a tight and original mixing style and in `97 he was invited to join the highly respected Powwow and Sunnyside sound systems. With Powwow he started a long running back-2-back dj partnership with like minded mate Robbie and under the guise of "Desperate Dan and Gobbie Robbie" they rocked many of the free parties in the south-west of England. 
Dan and Robbie soon gained popularity and respect for their unique blend of solid quality house music and oldskool breaks. 
They quickly earned residencies at Mr C`s in Taunton, Uzer Friendly at Club Loco (Bristol) and Off The Edge in Bournemouth. 
They also played festivals, including: The Rizla Bar at Glastonbury `98 (alongside Leftfield, Digs and Woosh (DIY) and David Holmes),the Lizard festivals `97, `98, `99 and the main dance stage at the Free the Weed festivals in Brockwell park, London `99 and 2000. 
In 2000 Dan moved to Exeter and helped form the now legendary Deep Cartel Soundsystem. Putting on "free parties by the people for the people", the parties were usually set in the beautiful Devon countryside with a music policy of bass-heavy, deep underground house music. 
In November 2000 Deep Cartel started their own club night at Casbar in Exeter where Deep Cartel dj`s played alongside quality guest dj`s/producers like: 
Simon DK (DIY), DIY Jack, Smokescreen Soundsystem, Andy Caldwell (Naked Music), Marques Wyatt (om records), Andy Compton (Peng), Ben Wijay (just muzik), Inland Knights (Drop), Mr Mulatto and Ben Vacara (BRS/Flat and Round) and Andy Kinky (Tango). 
Since then Deep Cartel have continued to forward the underground house scene with their own club nights, festival appearances, guest slots and of course the free parties have gone from strength to strength. Quality House DJ's travel the length and breadth of the country to have a spin and the vibe has been electric. 
Dan has guested at many of the UK's best underground house nights including...D.I.Y (Nottingham), Babble(Leicester), Kinky Movement (Nottingham), Dizzy Funk (Peterborough), Fruity Antics (Bristol), Shrewd (Lincoln), Duvet-Vous? (Bristol), Chocolate Jam (Bath), Turquoise (Totnes) and Guarana (Ibiza). 
A dedicated festival goer, Dan can often be found playing on stage or in back stage bars or anonymous festival DJ tents. Recently Dan has played at the Glade Festival `04 in "The Whore's Legs" backstage bar, Air Fusion festival, Shambala festival and on the Avalon stage and Lulu`s bar at Glastonbury `03 and `04. 
Since then Dan has played at numerous festivals including Bestival, Shambala main dance dome, Ugfest, BGG, Waveform and sunrise. In 2007 Dan organised the House Marquee at the 7th sun festival. 
In early 2010 as Deep Cartel celebrate their 10th anniversary Dan set up a new label "Deep Cartel Recordings" with fellow DC dj Lee Jones. This dj/production duo are known as "Country Gents" and have numerous releases on DCR, Manuscript, Jonny Loves House, Black No Sugar, Soiree, Pear Music and have a forthcoming release on Mobiletrax. 2011 has been a busy year on the festival scene with gigs at Love4Life (DiY/Black Box), Glastonbury's fantastic "Slumbarave" (Oldskool Houses set) and Quality Tom's Shangri-La crew bar, Magic Weekend, Spaceport Terminal, Aeon Festival and Headstock (DiY/Smokescreen tent).... On the club-scene in 2011 Dan has played at Duvet-Vous?, the re-opening of the legendary Verbeer Manor and Lakota. Look out for a new Deep Cartel club night coming soon! 
Hot New release coming soon on Deep Cartel Recordings!!!!

Half Welsh /  half Swedish breaks and techno producer

Sicknote are an explosion of post-punk, techno, breakbeat and thigh slapping hill billy acid punk, or something. Nothing can prepare you for the live show these freaks have in store for you poor bastards. Forget your problems, forget work, forget yourself and GET ON THE BUS……
"they is going one way and they ain't coming back"
5 losers from Cardiff met at the legendary dodgy all night after party spot, Netty's Fancy Dress Shop, a few years back and took to the stage to see what would happen if they just 'winged it', a lightening bolt smashed through the roof and life was breathed into what was immediately named: Sicknote. Fast forward a few years and Sicknote are touring Europe and headlining several underground festivals and punk and dance events…. with no skill between them, with just pure faith some cheap tricks and an 'in the moment' ethos,  Sicknote somehow manage to tap into something and whip their audience into a complete frenzy and leave them gagging for more every single time. Get to a live ceremony now, and witness the Sickness.
