hi there. Rob Cain here.

For the first time in nearly 5 years i have a weekend to myself. I have no gigs what-so-ever. Now some of you may see this as a bad thing, i however am exstatic about it.

 Im debating what to do with my evening, obviously my missus is going to be with me, so im at ends where to take her.

currently on the cards in ‘Bandstand’ which is run by ‘DJ Rob Da Bank’, this evening will feature a DJ set by ‘Mark Ronson’ ‘Kissy Sell Out’ & our very own ‘Steve Parry’. Its either this or i drop into liverpool glamourous nightclubs ’Society‘ or ‘Garlands‘…

so much choice.

I’ll probably end up in the ‘Grafton’

Steve Parry

Late Of The Pier are a band or outfit (if you like) that are part of this trendy nu wave/electro, rock, house and whatever else crossover thingie that’s going on at the moment (and has been for some time for that matter) & at the centre of it all is Emi music, With Dfa Records on board & a whole host of other interesting acts & sub labels in tow, Late Of The Pier (of which we know very little incidently) with there very quirky & almost undescribable - The Bears Are Coming 12″ which feat an amazing Emporer Machine mix that more than tickles our fancy !! Funk injected Nu disco that rocks!!

One of the greatest producers of our time, Henrick Schwarz is back with a brand new single - I Exist Because Of You feat Amapondo. A wicked future afro House cut with a groovey techie feel. This has so many levels! also inc a more striped down mix from Dixon. Miss this at your peril!!

the Amazing Guy Gerber returns to his own awesome Suppliment Facts lable, with what we can only desribe as a belter of a track!

Guy seems to take in house, tech house, techno and progressive flavours with his music, and somehow cpture all of those musical genres superbly that they are played by DJ’s accross the board without having to compromise.

Disorientation is a hypnotic undergroung groove with orchestral strings, techie percussion, a housey groove, mad jazzy licks that are effected to the max, an old school house groove and a subtle progressive edged structure.

If thats not enough remix honours go to Johhny D and reboot, and with DJ’s like Garnier, David K, Chaim and Fortier already spinning this gem, we’re sure that the list will grow and grow.
