2011 ROUND UP – PASQUALE’S YEAR

Well what a crazy ass year we’ve had. Dubstep went back underground (Well the real stuff did…) I rediscovered house music.. (Or house music got good again….) We lost one of dance music’s finest (R.I.P. DJ Medhi) & Disco edits crashed into specific bar sets I performed with my good friend Sleazy Wonder.

Here’s my take on the records that rocked my world in 2011… (In NO particular order)

DeadBoy – Here 4 U

Lil Silva – Seasons

Sbtrkt – Wildfire

Jon Convex – Convexations

Jamie XX – Far Nearer

Untold – Cool Story Bro

Huxley – Shower Scene

Gonzales – Knight Moves (Lone Mix)

Jacques Greene – Lay It Down

Virgo Four – It’s A Crime (Hunee Mixes)

Scuba – Adrenalin EP (All tracks are killers!)

Addison Groove – This Is It / Make Em Bounce

Xxxy – Kerpow

Blawan – Vibe Decorium

A1 Bassline – Falsehood

Justin Martin & Ardalan – LEZGO

Ben Westbeech – Something for the weekend – Breach Mix

There are so many more records from 2011, but I could literally be here all day.

So onto 2012, and my take on who I’ll be following. Some of the following may not be fresh to the scene, but acts i’ve discovered throughout the year…. I’ve attached the artists Soundcloud so you can check em out.

2011 has been another amazing year for the underground music. weather that be House, Future Garage, post Dubstep (What people label it as. I call it new music, and its bloomin brilliant!

I’ve been out to some ridiculous places as well this year. Warehouse Project Storer Street Car park tops the  venues I’ve visited. Greg Wilson at Bestival was a big DJ Set Highlight. Chic ‘Live’ at the Warehouse Project were amazing! Kasabien at Nottigham Trent arena. The Detonate Indoor Festival at Rock City, Stealth & Rescue Rooms was one of the most impressive gigs I’ve ever done, and been involved with…

The list is endless….. Roll on 2012!!

Peace & Fucking
