CHECK OUT RADIO INTERVIEW ON THURSDAY (JUN 11) 8PM (GMT +8) ON WWW.UDANCECN.COM

Persian Crack House Syndicate is the latest joint project between London’s Flash Jordan (Freek Records, UK) and Manchester’s Jack Sprat (Sick It Up, UK).   Since the days of their highly eclectic Cheeky Monkey Radio Sessions, they have been developing their sound and honing their DJ/production skills culminating in interest from a number of labels, the most recent being Freek Records (UK), who will be releasing two of Flash Jordan’s tunes in the near future, including remixes by Jack Sprat and some of the biggest names in the crack/fidget house scene.

They come to Shanghai hot on the heels of DJ Zinc, who’s description of the   genre led to their name.   With them they bring old friend MC Stride, who recently performed with Vera residents Clubber Langz (Flash Jordan/C-Deuce) at the World DJ festival in Seoul.

They’ll also be bringing the latest beats and basslines from the underground uk house and garage scenes, along with some very special bootlegs and original productions of their own.

Expect nothing but pure cut, high-grade debauchery!

SATURDAY FEB 28 @ SHELTER
CALL TO MIND – COMMIX IN SHANGHAI
60rmb @ door
Supported by Siesta, Abruzzi Spur and Viceroy

After much talk and anticipation and even some skepticism amongst Shanghai’s DnB community, it appears that our Japanese comrades did not let us down. With DJ Aki spinning the decks and Stamina MCing, this was definitely an amazing way to start of 2009 with the first sweatshop of the year.

Right from the start of the set the sound was promising, playing an array of many different styles, staying close to the energetic sounds of sambass (Brazilian influenced dnb), liquid funk, and a occasionally bringing in a much needed chill break sound of dubstep. A nice mix of some dnb classics as well as some fresh tunes, the dance floor kept jumping through the night.

Accompanying this samurai of a Selekta, Stamina MC also did not fail to disappoint, keeping the crowd pumped with his melodic voice as well as amazing lines in the usual Stamina way. And of course, what night with Stamina wouldn’t be complete without an amazing rendition of Barcelona (which I must say was my personal highlight of the night).

All and all, it was a raving night. With an energetic crowd, a great MC and Selekta pair, and a whole case of good tunes, there was so much energy we nearly blew a fuse .

Don’t forget to check out DJ Siesta & Stamina MC + the phreaktion crew next Friday the 23^rd.

Shanghai D&B factory SWEATSHOP is back in full forms. In November we bring to you one of the most cerebral yet eternally funky of all the great drum’n’bass producers in our time.

鼓打贝司在10年前在英国可谓备受瞩目，有点风起云涌的味道。当时这个一直蛮地下的电子音乐一下子成了“半主流”，其实很大的原因是1997年Reprazent的New Forms得到了英国权威音乐奖项Mercury Prize (还记得Brown Paper Bag吗？)。而Krust就是身为Reprazent的主要成员之一。

DJ KRUST is the co-founder of the widely-praised FULL CYCLE crew. Alongside Roni Size, DJ Die and Suv they created the landmark album Reprazent’s NEW FORMS, which landed them the most prestigious music award England offers, the Mercury Prize in 1997.

A true legend in Shanghai. Do not miss this.
