FISH GO DEEP & BILLY SCURRY, JUNE 3RD

This time last year we had Lil Louis over to play our party and it was a memorable night, with people piling in on top of each other to get a taste of the great man doing his thing. This time round we’re keeping it strictly Irish, with Fish Go Deep, Billy Scurry and our own Aaron Dempsey lined up to smash the jaysus out of the Sugar Club. This is going to be the destination of choice for the Forbidden Fruit festival afters, make sure you are there!

DJ TLR (Creme Organisation), Lerosa (Live) & Lunar Disko DJs

Super excited to welcome DJ TLR from Creme Organisation to our next party at the Sugar Club. DJ TLR is a DJ and label head and has dabbled in production with the likes of Legowelt and Bangkok Impact. He likes alphabet spaghetti too.

We are also delighted to welcome Italian living in Dublin producer extraordinaire, Lerosa! Leo will be treating us to a fully live performance of his productions, with loads of sexy analogy gear for the poindexters to drool over. Correction: we jumped the gun a little, presuming Leo would be carting his studio gear to the club for this performance. He has since set us straight on the matter, so we are afraid the aforementioned ‘sexy analog gear’ will not be available to drool over. We have been told however that Leo is crafting an exciting new live set featuring new and unreleased tracks on a chicago tip, ranging from deep to acid. If you really want to check out his rather badass studio rig, head over to his facebook page (don’t forget to hit the like button on the way out).

Barry and Andy from Lunar Disko will be setting the tone with their fine selections of electro and house (maybe even some electro-house if we’re lucky).

Great interview with TLR over on ISM here

Beautiful Swimmers, Dogs and Kev Sheridan Feb 11th

Finally after many a moon spent listening to Big Coast on repeat we are ready to welcome Beautiful Swimmers of Future Times out of Washington D.C. to our next party with Radiomade.ie at the Sugar Club on Feb 11th. These guys have been making seriously good dance music incorporating elements of booty shaking, jazzercize and house. See the videos below to confirm their beautifulness. Also on the bill are Le Galaxie who will be dropping ‘synth supernovas and thunderous drum starfields’ into their killer live set which has been getting kudos all over the shop!

N.B unfortunately Le Galaxie have had to pull out of this (next time Gadget!) but we are happy to announce that newcomers Dogs have been booked as well as our old pal Kev Sheridan, the One Man Loop!

The Unabombers Recorded Live @ Fatty Fatty Label Launch 26 November 2011

Well folks, the first release on our sexy new label Fatty Fatty Phonographics is now available all over the world on sexy black 12″ vinyl, just the way the Good Lord intended.

Featuring three tracks of chunky funky 70′s soulfulness reworked for the modern floor, it’s picked up plaudits from the likes of Sleazy Beats Recordings, Dom Servini of Wah Wah 45′s, and Situation Edits ( Disco Deviance), as well as attention from local disco heroes like Billy Scurry, Get Down Edits, Keep Schtum, Check The Guns and Padraic Disconaut.

It’s available at some of our favourite record stores in the world, such as Manchester’s Piccadilly Records, Dutch behemoths Clone.nl, and Juno.co.uk. It’s also available in loads of other shops stretching out as far as Japan at jetsetrecords.net

You can have a quick listen to the tracks here:

To celebrate the release we had two parties last weekend – one with our disco brothers at Belfast Music Club, and a Dublin launch with Manchester’s demon deck wreckers The Unabombers.

The Una’s weaved together a set that summoned up the spirit of 2am at their legendary night Electric Chair in Manchester – plenty of modern sci-fi disco and deep, jackin’ tackle, interspersed with some vintage electro-disco and boogie manoeuvres to keep ‘em juiced.

We simply couldn’t think of a better way to mark our first release than with these boys on the decks, and you can listen to the whole thing right here….
