HIJACKED 3rd BIRTHDAY BASH feat CTRL-Z

Posted 6 months ago

HIJACKED 3rd BIRTHDAY BASH feat

CTRL-Z (against the grain,never say die)

Ctrl Z are a production duo hailing from London. They are one of the hottest acts in the breakbeat world and have become pioneers and trendsetters of harder edged breakbeat.
Tom Petais and Nicky D'Silva, aka Dash and Inch, met through the Community Music Program in London. The pairing up of these two DJs by their tutor was to be the start of something special. When Ctrl Z's first production was unleashed, it was snapped up by DJ Mutiny's Funkatech Recordings. 'Disko' and 'Pain' was a defining episode in break beat history as it caused a tidal wave in the Breaks scene. It blasted it's way straight to number 1 in the Mixmag charts and straight into the boxes of the Breakbeat elite. This dancefloor bomb paved the way for the duo, but was just a hint of what was to come.
They have over 40 releases and remixes under their belts on respected labels such as Against the Grain, Lot49, Botchit & Scarper, Passenger, Rat Records and Hardcore Beats. It is no surprise that after only a year in the business, Ctrl Z had the honour of receiving two nominations for Best Breakthrough Act and Best Breakthrough Producer at the 2005 Breakspoll Awards.
Their DJ sets have to be seen to be believed, headlining Events all over the world, In 2007 they were one of the main drawcards in Annie Nightingales Tent on the Opening night of the infamous Glastonbury festival and became residents at the legendary End club for DJ Friction's Shogun Audio Night. Always looking to take things to the next level, Ctrl Z have started their own label 'Never Say Die Records' in 2009 as an outlet for their ever changing and uncompromising sound.

Posted 8 months ago

Herbal Mafia kicks off the new decade and celebrates its 4th birthday in true style, bringing you the most cutting edge artists in the scene in a 2 room dubstep, hiphop and drum&bass mashup.

We welcome back the infallible NERO, they played our 1st birthday when they were still purely drum&bass producers, they were on Formation Records and virtually unknown but we saw talent when we heard it. Now releasing huge dubstep tunes on Breakbeat Kaos including remixes of Deadmau5, La Roux and The Streets, these boys have hit the big time....prepared to be blown away by their 3 deck set!

Alongside Nero we have the awesome BAR9 who have consistently made the heaviest dubstep tunes in the scene, these lads are signed to Audio Phreaks and are going to be huge in 2010.
