Pousser l'enveloppe
Hopefully you trust us when it comes to djs by now so we're going to push the envelope a little with our first international booking from the Institubes label in Paris. Learn about this man, he's Surkin's label mate and he's going to fuck things up.
JEAN NIPON
We don’t expect you to know who Jean Nipon is because he played some time ago for Jac The Disco's London club night 'Last One In's A Rotten Egg' and people still talk about it to this day. Nipon is a fractious, peculiar creature. He agrees to no rules and no higher power, and under the veil of unassailable coolness, remains an enigma.
Jean Nipon started out as a drummer in Hardcore bands, lived in Japan for a year and has designed a Coke bottle. He started DJing in 97. At first it was a cheap ploy to get more in touch with his fellow humans (read: get girls). Then it became something of an art form, and many a reveler remembers his seven-hour sets at Paris Paris where, as a resident, he would play the latest bangers in custom-edited form, plus Prince, Minor Threat, Aphex Twin and the Beastie Boys, Dinosaur Jr and Lio, Pink Floyd and Shellac, My Bloody Valentine and KRS One.
What he does with those CD decks... Nobody can touch him.
After a highly credible career of colabs and studio genious Jean is stepping up on his own as a member of the Institubes family, with full privileges. He brings with him a precious knowledge of the obscure and the mainstream, of the rare and the common, and that’s what makes him so bloody necessary.
He will destroy it and he will shout at you in French.

Riton
The name Riton is French slang for 'Henry'. Henry's career in dance music began in the 1990s, he's done many alright things like start his own label 'Switch Recordings' sign to Manchester's Grand Central' and release a couple of highly credited albums. Last year saw a stunning colab with Primary 1 on 'Who's There' [released on Erol Alkan's Phantasy Sound label] and a slew of incredible remixes - his take on Kid Sister's 'Right Hand Hi' destroyed clubs the world over. Riton has supported Soulwax / 2 Many DJ's on Tour and 2010 so far has him touring the globe and releasing on Ed Banger records with DJ Mehdi as Carte Blanche, playing around with Seiji [Computer Juice] as well as more things with Primary One.
Basically Riton is red hot, anywhere in the world, right now. Go look at his myspace calender and it may seem ridiculous that he's coming to St Ives, but he is, so there........Get Ready!!!!

Goodbye Winter, hello Foamo
4 months after he got held hostage in Brussels by the Icy Bastard known as Winter he finally makes his southwest debut with us. Two weeks after the start of BST we say Goodbye Winter, hello Foamo.
Oh, and he's even bigger now....
Foamo
Kye Gibbon happens to be a producer and DJ from High Wycombe, going by the name of Foamo. Receiving attention from the likes of MSTRKRFT, Drop The Lime, Crookers, Diplo and Kissy Sell Out must be nice. Making music and drawing buildings since the age of 13 influenced him crafting his own category of electro that often revolves around a filthy bassline and kinetic beats. A resident of Chew the Fat! alongside A1 Bassline and Hervé would be enough for most people but he's now releasing tracks with Lee Mortimer. Keep a withered eye out, he's getting massive.

Then wear the gold hat if that will move her;
If you can bounce high, bounce for her too,
Till she cry ' Lover, gold-hatted, high bouncing lover,
I must have you !'
Thomas Parke D' Invilliers
Our next party is a celebration of Valentines at a new veunue, the ever popular Sandbar at Praa Sands beach. We are pleased to be joined by our good friends, the awesome Sir Vinyl Of The Fattest.
JAC THE DISCO
With their legendary South London club night 'Last One In's A Rotten Egg' on hold the boys have really been concentrating on djing over the last year. It's rather paid off. With bookings throughout Europe and for one of the country's finest club nights Kill Em All [run by previous guests Filthy Dukes and Stopmakingme]. They are also about to make their debut at Fabric alongside Erol Alkan. Fabric is a small gastro pub in Walford but apparently you're pretty good if you get asked to play there.

SIR VINYL OF THE FATTEST
Deep, diverse, deadly..........joyous, unpredictable......loud. DJ collective Dave Spenceley, Will Vega and Catrina D'Olive will be taking over the bar room with their unique sound of ragga, dubstep, afrobeat, broken beat and hi tek soul.

Our first birthday
We were born a year ago at the sandsifter, just at the end of the Holloway era. When your birthday falls close to that of the Lord's you tend to get combined birthday and Xmas presents, which can either suck or be massive. Foamo got stuck in Brussels, rather than mope about we have our biggest act yet as a replacement: The Filthy Dukes. Huge Album, huge fabriclive album, fabric superstars, huge, huge. Going to smash it
The Filthy Dukes
First shaking up London's club scene with Kill 'Em All at the Barfly, the Dukes were first to some of this decade's biggest bands. Now a residency at fabric, the night's gone from strength to strength, as are its promoters, the Filthy Dukes who are now both a globe-trotting live band and a lethal DJ duo capable of turning a dancefloor into sweating mush in a matter of records.
With their vibrant club night Kill Em All, the Filthy Dukes have made an individual and indelible impact on the nightlife landscape of London. True pioneers in their own right, Kill Em All first struck a chord at Camden's unassuming Barfly in 2001, after the pair recognised a thirst amongst a public raised on both guitars and electronic music. Bored of the dull notion that the two scenes should be kept separate, the Filthy Dukes (Olly Dixon and Tim Lawton) decided to unite dancefloor-geared DJs with hard-edged scuzzy rockers, and went on a quest for artist that embraced both disciplines.

We want your skull
We love Halloween, reckon its well alright. Jac The Disco are back in frightening form and are bringing one of their best mates with them, who just happens to be one of the hottest and most in demand djs on the Laandan club scene and will be fresh from touring with Simian Mobile Disco. The dancefloor is going to bleed.
STOPMAKINGME
This guy has two main hobbies - cutting the sleeves off his t shirts, even though he's not that muscly and smashing dancefloors alongside some of the biggest names on the planet.
Stopmakingme has been wowing the crowds at Fabric for a couple of years now. He has also gone onto impress other djs, with requests from Simian Mobile Disco to support them on their UK tour as well as Tim Sweeney from DFA, and a certain Alexander Ridha to play the Uk launch of the new Boys Noize album 'Power'. Time Out said of him "more corrosive than a DFA remix, more minimal than an Optimo re-edit, his jams are ones to get utterly lost in"

JAC THE DISCO
Recently they headlined Bournemouth's giant of a club night 'We Are Your Friends'. Just the other week they played Southern Sound 2009 alongside Felix da Housecat, Audio Bullys and Rob da Bank.

Every wolf has a silver lining?
For our second party of summer 09 we're asking you to prepare for one of the best and most entertaining dj sets you've ever heard as we host another Westcountry debut, this time from the Kitsune, Paris stable. Ladies and Gentlemen, its the Streetlife DJs, we love them and so will you.
STREETLIFE DJS
A blatant disregard for musical styles and a combined 30 years of turntable experience along with some supernatural talent has led to serious praise from every credible big wig in the dance music industry and a home on the worlds coolest record label [Kitsune]. They mix old funk and disco records with the latest blood curdling electro, filthy techno and house bangers, and do it to devastating effect. With headline slots around the globe, educating, entertaining and smashing dancefloors wherever they play, as well as being responsible for some of the best Radio 1 Essential Mixes the station has ever recieved. Theres genre busting and then theres Streetlife DJs, the UKs answer to 2manydjs, reckon thats a big call? come see..

Flying badgers
For our first party of summer 09 we're heading back to St Ive's born again nightspot Isobar Is Dead and are very pleased to host the southwest debut of BBC RADIO 1's hottest new stars - Jaymo & Andy George. hosts of 'In New DJs We Trust' serving up box fresh electro, future disco and house party bangers...
JAYMO & ANDY GEORGE
In our humble opinion, the best thing to happen to the national airwaves since Wogan. In April last year Jaymo and Andy were the youngest ever djs to be asked to record an Essential Mix, impressing station bosses sufficiently to be given their own show on 'In New DJs We Trust' and now they're taking their sound global ! as well as regularly sitting in for Kissy Sell Out and Annie Mac. Also at the helm of one of the countries biggest club nights - Moda which they now host in Ibiza. With headline spots at huge nights and events around the globe including this years Snowbombing, Glastonbury, Creamfields and Bestival, they are one of the most exciting acts out there right now..

On Sat 28th March the best djs to ever step foot in the place will play in a different venue – new door staff, bans lifted, revamped decor, restocked bar, a new room that has a giant bed in it and there’s even rumours of a renowned local artist leaving his unmistakable markings all over the toilets.
SKULL JUICE
This duo of Alex Egan and Benedict Bull use their extraordinarily large record collection to headline some of the country's biggest club nights. Playing alongside giants of today's dance world on several world tours, they have drawn huge praise from dj megastar of the moment, Erol Alkan.
