Soundcrash presents: DJ Krush special 20th anniversary tour++
January 28, 2012 Kentish Town Forum+ buy ticketsSaturday 28th January sees the undisputed Godfather of the electronic beats scene, DJ Krush, celebrate in London 20 years since his first ever live gig with a very special 3 hour set sure to delight his legion of fans! DJ Krush’s importance as a music producer cannot be underestimated and without him some of the biggest artists Soundcrash puts on would simply not exist, at least in their present form. He single-handedly turned Hip Hop and Turntablism into an artform by virtue of his immaculate sample selection, clever use of effects and sensational scratching routines. Eschewing the extravagant I-can-scratch-faster-than-you pissing contests of his American counterparts, rejecting the purist notion that jazz cannot exist outside traditional live instruments, and applying a very Japanese sense of minimalism, balance and progression to his compositions, DJ Krush set the tone for the following 20 years of electronic music production. But despite this enormous influence, DJ Krush has always been a live performer at heart, honing his skills to perfection throughout the years and now capable of building layer after layer after layer of drum samples to the point where his audience have no choice but to completely lose it and immerse themselves fully in the wonderful, dark, and downright genius world of DJ Krush. In every good beat worth its salt in the past 20 years there is a bit of DJ Krush. In the really good ones, there is a lot. And tonight, we get 3 hours straight from the source. It’s time to celebrate.

Louche & Jaunt Sat 28th January Plan B Nothing better than a proper good old fashioned January shakedown to keep one warm in winter! Still buzzing from the success of our last sellout event in November with Omar S, the Louche/Jaunt partnership will return this January, for the first in a four part series of Red Bull Music Academy events at Plan B. First up we welcome Julio Bashmore, Shonky, Midland, Braiden & Jane Fitz Since it’s inception in 1998, Red Bull Music Academy has established itself as one of the most unique projects in music. Each year, the Academy takes over an inner city space, transforming it into a bespoke venue for musical innovation where aspiring music makers from all over the over the world are joined by pioneering legends to learn about everything from music history to technology. Previous lecturers have included Bootsy Collins, Nile Rogers, Carl Craig, Bob Moog, Steve Reich, Erykah Badu and the Mizell Brothers as well as more recent successes such as MIA, Oneohtrix Point Never, Peaches and Magnetic Man's Skream. The Academy have all of their fingers and toes very firmly on the pulse, taking great interest in global underground music scenes, popping-up at only the most vital music festivals as well as curating their own legendary events. 2011 saw RBMA present a showcase at Barcelona’s Sonar festival, dominate Notting Hill Carnival with their annual Major Lazer throwdown and take over the London Eye for a music festival in the sky, programming the 30 pods with 30 live gigs and broadcasting to the world via www.redbullmusicacademyradio.com Julio Bashmore, is a name that if you haven’t heard by now, you must have had your head stuck hard down a toilet.. but even then you would have probably been able to hear the signature Bashmore toms rattling your skull against the U-bend! With one of the most seminal releases of the year, crossover anthem “Battle For Middle You” earned the Bristolian almost instant global recognition. Expect, jaw dropping bass & serious house dubs as Bashmore brings his signature Bristol modulations to South London. We welcome back French house virtuoso Shonky from Dan Ghenacia's Lola ED family, fresh from blowing the roof off Mint club with his closing set from Louche’s 4th Birthday in November. Expect to be treated to ruthless grooves, killer basslines, and some real nice obscure psychedelic west coast vinyl. Midland, after a solid stint in Leeds living with one of bass music’s men of the moment, Ramadanman, has been busy making waves aplenty, already with a signature style that blurs the lines between bass music, techno and house. Add a handful of some of the falls hottest releases, a move to London, and more tracks due on Will Saul's on point label AUS and 2012 looks like its gonna be a pretty good year for the young producer. Holding it down in the basement will be East London DJ, promoter and music journalist Jane Fitz. Djing since the nineties in London and her old home Hong Kong, Jane has always shown a natural aptitude to house music of all kinds. She's taken this passion for the music we all love around the globe, from Watergate to Free Rotation Festival as well as delivering one of the standout Louche podcasts of the year; if you've not heard her play before you're in for a treat. They’ll be joined by Rinse FM talent and Red Bull Music Academy graduate Braiden. Whether it’s playing the latest future garage and funky over three decks or scouring Berlin’s dancefloors in search of some undiscovered glitch or disco-infused gems to weave into his expansive sets, Braiden continues to deliver on the hype whilst keeping that element of surprise. This time we step out of the warehouses and take the celebrations south of the river to one of our favourite venues in London, Brixton's most majestic party destination, Plan B. A 500 capacity gem complete with Funktion 1 sound in two acoustically treated rooms with a raw, stripped back interior. Expect intimate vibes and a serious soundsystem! Red Bull Music Academy presents Louche & Jaunt with Julio Bashmore, Shonky, Midland, Braiden & Jane Fitz.

Streets Of Beige with Sunship, My Panda Shall Fly++
January 6, 2012 Rhythm Factory+ buy ticketsLine-up Sunship My Panda Shall Fly BNRY (live) Lixo Local Authority Swimsuit Crew Streets Of Beige start the year in fine form with a bass and garage special featuring UKG legends Sunship. With a backlog of incredible work that includes timeless solo material, and production credits from Mis-Teeq to Sweet Female Attitude, Sunship were true innovators in garage and bass, and their sound is still vital in 2012. My Panda Shall Fly has a knack for digging forgotten and classic cuts alike, and he'll be putting this skill to work at his first ever Rhythm Factory appearance, as well as dropping some of his own fine production. Another young support comes in the shape of BNRY, a fast-rising local with a production sensibility that spans staggered bass, Chicago house and Berlin techno, and whose live set hammers as hard as his studio work. As resident and curator of GetMe, Lixo has hosted and played alongside a spectrum of talent including Trim, Marcus Nasty, Sampha, The XX, Sinden SBTRKT, Alex Nut, Oneman, Warrior Queen and tons more, as well as holding down heavy sets and residencies at many of London's key venues. Forward-thinking electronic music blogger and Youtube channel Local Authority House join residents Swimsuit Crew in bookending the night with some deeper sounds and slower tempos.

Love Fever New Year's Day Party
January 1, 2012 The Nest, 36 Stoke Newington Road, N16 7XJ, London4pm-4am A&A (Love Fever) FCL San Soda Red D Jimmy Edgar A year on from that memorable much talked about party of last New Years Day which saw MCDE, Move D, Trusme, Wbeeza, Bicep and the Boys taking the nest on a wild ride for 12 hours of debauched intensity and Love Fever are here to do it all again. 2011 saw Alex & Andy push the boundaries of their infamous discotheque deeper into the abyss with sleazy valentines day warehouses, chic photographic studios for what RA claimed was the party of the year back in july, an over the top house party saying farewell to that naughty kingsland road den, cheeky ibiza jaunts, a weekend in berlin that defies description… and most recently settling their brand of erotic house and disco into their very own private space in hackney wick for a new era in london club romanticism. 2012 NYD at the nest is set to be the perfect remedy for the crudeness of the night before or for carrying on the decadence. The nest provides some creature comforts that a warehouse cant provide that we think New Years Day raving requires, (lets face it nobody wants flooded toilets and warm booze on NYD) right in the heart of Dalston and open for 12 hours of fun and frivolity. The sound system will be tweaked, balloons hung, love heart lofted and the boys have yet again pulled it out of the bag with Jimmy Edgar, FCL and expect some very special guest in keeping with the pedigree of last year! here go again. o ohhhh! 'make love in public spaces' -
