Party people. My 5 year old son's favorite part.

I'm launching my own night at the Nest in london Friday Feb25th. When booked for 90 minute sets theres alot of pressure to rock the party hard and the guy before you is invariably playing so banging that theres often not much room to take it deep and dynamic. So I'm doing my own thing.  Playing for 4 hours on that awesome sound system at The Nest and playing exactly how I like to play.Heres a teaser mix of some of the styles you may hear at Kaleidoscope

Aloha,

Here you go my friends, something different from me….

This is not a promo mix and I’m not trying to generate work off the back of it, it’s simply a mid-tempo DJ mix.  I have been collecting tracks for a while that didn’t seem to fit anywhere in my sets, but that I really love, so I decided to put them into a mix in their own right… music with a late night, deep & sleazy electronic feel, full of atmosphere, with a splattering of dark funk thrown in. 

I’ve got plenty of brand new peak time releases coming shortly on my Lowering The Tone imprint, from Pook/ & Lola, Lee Coombs, Matt Goddard/Dopamine, Ben Coda, Carbon Kingdom and myself, but in the meantime welcome to the “Den Of Iniquity” :-)

Enjoy!!

The Xmas Boat Party in 2014 was a last minute thing, and we took to the tiny Tideway for a night of gargantuan beats and sonic smiles. Here's the recording, untouched.

Elite Force - Live @ The London Boat Party, 16 July-2011 (Part Three)

Another stunning night at Publicworks on the back of *that* election result. I deliberately kept things upbeat and optimistic, which made for one of THE most fun sets I've ever played.

A HUGE heartfelt thank you to every single one of you that came down, felt and shared the love and made this One Series *such* a massive high.

I'd also like to thank PublicWorks and Peter Blick for being a joy to work with, Kevin Zhu from All of it Now for the stunning visual treats, and Mad Dog from the beautiful inter-galactic stage design.

Hi Guys,

I’m pleased to give you Episode 25 of Lowering The Tone Podcast.

This Instalment I caught up with Phil Klein AKA Bass Junkie a pioneer of the UK electro scene & head honcho at Battle Trax.
Phil gives us an insight into his musical journey that started back in the 80’s, we discuss our childhood influences, the free party scene of the early 90’s and the development ‘authentic’ Electro.

Music wise, I will be playing some heavy-duty Techno, and as requested by many of you I have also brought back the ‘Deep Selection’ for this episode.

As always, if you enjoy the show please share the link, make a comment, spread the love, your support is greatly appreciated.

I hope you enjoy.

Track Listing

Meat Katie ‘Lowering The Tone’ Episode 25 (Interview with Phil Klein AKA Bass Junkie)

This is a partial recording of an amazing morning I had in Vegas this summer at my good friend Andrea's birthday bash. A whole bunch of reprobates from legendary West Coast crews (Space Cowboys, Distrikt, The Nutz) took over the Artisan hotel for two full days and nights. Reprehensible behaviour clearly followed with Andrea taking the lead on her newly 'acquired' mobility scooter.

I took to the decks around 4am, 'fresh' from having played at DefCon, a giant hacker's convention in one of the big casino hotels. I was playing off a (borrowed) USB stick for the first time, and amongst the shenanigans unfolding was me loading up a few more tracks off my laptop whenever we ran out and hot-swapping the decks as we rolled into the next day.

It's unclear how long I played for, as this is just an excerpt of the set which randomly dropped in my mailbox several months later, but I figured it'd be nice to have for posterity for those who were there ... and for the mildly curious, of course.

Simon Shackleton -  Live @ Artisan Hotel, Las Vegas (Sunrise Set) (2012)

Elite Force aka Simon Shackleton has had an extensive career spanning over 2 decades. Starting off as a musician and being a band member with Thom Yorke (Radiohead) before moving onto his own outfit called Lunatic Calm which had quite a successful career and a few number one tunes including "Rollercoaster". Simon has also worked with a bunch of top musical acts, remixed, wrote movie soundtracks, toured and was one to watch in the Nuskool Breaks scene. He then developed the Tech Funk genre in the late 2000's included with such artists as Meat Katie and Dylan Rhymes to name a few. This mix was recorded for Annie Nightingale and her breakbeat show at the time known as Annie On One, One referring to the radio station BBC Radio 1.
