Downtown Sounds is proud to present yet another Dublin ramraid by Manchester’s finest DJ duo, The Unabombers.
They ran a much-loved night in the rainy city for 13 years called ‘Electric Chair’, releasing 7 mix albums of their inimitable ‘Northern Sulphuric Souling' style - a heady brew of soul, hip hop, freaky deaky r’n’b, diva disco, house, techno and other 21st Century dancefloor slayers.
Since winding up Electric Chair in early 2008 they’ve gone on to run 'Electric Elephant', a 4 day festival in the Adriatic coastal town of Petrcane, a beautiful place which many people have dubbed 'The New Ibiza'.
Next year will see it celebrate it’s 5[SUP]th[/SUP] Year, with a heavyweight line up featuring Andrew Weatherall and Chris Duckenfield already gaining momentum…
Support on the night comes from Dublin’s Michael McKenna, whose DJ-friendly edits of old disco tracks under the alias ‘Keep Schtum’ helped bag him a slot at Electric Elephant this year. His edit of Odyssey’s ‘Hang Together’ has become an anthem with the Electriks crowd so we should see much backslapping and blokey bonhomie as he hands the reins over to the UB’s……
Meanwhile in The Lobby our friends at Fatty Fatty Phonographics will be celebrating the release of their debut 12” – ‘The Rejigs Volume 1’ by Pablo and Shoey.
Featuring the disco know-how of Downtownsounds/Fatty Fatty messer Pablo and the production trickery of Shoey of the External Sounds crew from Drogheda, it showcases three discofunk bombs reworked for the modern dancefloor, and is already garnering DJ support from local stalwarts like Billy Scurry, Padraic Disconaut and Martin Roche, not to mention overseas action from the likes of Dom Servini (Wah Wah 45’s, London) and ex Tresor resident DJ Raw Sugar all the way down in New Zealand!
To mark the occasion of the release Fatty Fatty’s mysterious man of records G-Mos will be joined by External Sounds DJ’s for what should be an epic show of local disco force....
