As a lot of you know, our friend Sonia from Push Promotions is suffering from Leukemia and is in desperate need of a donor. On 28th March 2013, a tonne of awesome Djs got together to raise money for the cause by doing what they do best – playing top class beats to an audience partying hard! Krafty Kuts, A-Skillz, Shy-FX, MJ Cole, Ben & Lex and many more smashed it, making it a night to remember!

The appeal is for people aged 16-30 to spare 20 minutes to register as a donor. You can do so here – all that’s needed is a spit! www.anthonynolan.org Due to Sonia being mixed race people of mixed heritage are desperately needed in particular any / all of these communities: Chinese, black Caribbean Indian & white British. Come forward and register to give Sonia and other like her a greater chance of life.

Eclectronica, Beaverworks, Leeds, 22nd March

in Events, Featured Downloads by Fifties on March 9th, 2013

Way back in the “black and white” / “sepia” days, some men built a huge steel factory just outside Leeds city centre. Years later this was deemed to be a silly idea so some much cooler men turned it into a huge warehouse nightclub full of smoke, laser’s and bass instead of smelting pots! Introducing the “Beaverwork’s”. Much more like it eh!? Anyway, the point is thus: in a couple of weeks the “Eclectronica” crew invite you to join them in a celebration of many varieties in this amazing venue.

With sea shanties a plenty, Supatronix are back on the (not so) high seas of the Thames on London, 15th December! Celebrating the birthdays of Deekline, Dom B, JFB and Aston Freestyler, they are kicking things off in style with a very loud booty shakin’ boat party. With a line-up this phat, hopefully it won’t tip over!

Deciding to make this event an all-out reunion for all the breaks-heads who’ve been supporting this scene for the past decade and more, Supatronix and Hot Cakes parties aim to have a forward thinking approach to breakbeat bass music in 2012. First up we have heavy weights: the Stanton Warriors. After their speaker destroying set at Supatronix in April at JAMM, expect things to go off big time. The night also sees the return of the awesome Freestylers, with their ragga beats and ear for a crowd pleasing vocal. Next up in the Hot Cakes room is label boss and a constant innovator Deekline, fresh from touring across the globe from Russia to the US, Canada, Spain and beyond. Also, flying in especially, Lady Waks and Keith Mackenzie, perform in the UK for the first time in 2012.
