pickled | returned in style

WOW. Was that a blinder or what? Due to some technical problems we started 20mins later than planned. Benny Boy filled in at the last minute for Kobi Shinobi and went on to give a great tech/electro/breaks set. We had some 30 odd people kicking around by half 8!

Next up was the first of their b2b gigs: deviant g & Casual Breakin'dropping some right funky numbers including some classic Josh Wink all plumped up ;) They worked hard in adding to the evening. Following them up to the decks, we welcomed Kickflip, it's was his first time with us, but after his electric performance he's been add to our regular roster. He dropped some superb funk monsters all touched with a slight tech feel. Then he started getting into his scratching, at which point, he definately had the buildings attention. You bloody showoff!!!

Back for their final set was deviant g with the Casual Breakin'. Their task was to beef up the basslines in prep for the final DJ. deviant was doing his best but Casual was determined to keep the funk flowing. They kept everyone on the dance floor thou and the vibe of the night was just getting better.

At midnite, pickled welcomed back the bassline terrorist that is Jo Stokes. No stranger to the crowd of pickled, she dropped a trademark bassline special show. With a few of her n her partner's tweaked tunes ;) Pickled always seem to make the system in that place louder than it should be.

Then it got silly. Kickflip came back on towards the end of Jo's set to add some scratch stylings. :D It got to 1am. People were still stirring, Kickflip was warmed up so deviant brought out some tunes... oh dear. they started well, Mr Psik's rmx's of Jacko's beat it, but this was followed by Addam's Family and some Queen

Massive massive thanks to all of you lot who showed up. Massive shouts to Bobby, Ben, John, Stacey, Matt, Justin, Jo, Jim, John, Adam and everyone else who helped make it a fecking mental evening.

The entire event bar the Kickflip/deviant wrongness was recorded. As soon as deviant's PC is back up n running he'll be uploading it. It will happen folks ;)

See you at the next one!!! xXx
