@ Twisted Pepper, Friday 21st August, doors 11pm, Tenner in! Brand new Void sound system for maximum bass pressure!



What is with Bristol? The Wild Bunch, Fresh 4, Massive Attack, Tricky, Roni Size and Reprazent, Pinch, Peverelist...some lineup. There's someone else to add to the list now, only 20 years old, but a leader of the musical pack with a string of big, vibrant 12s to his name - JOKER. How has he done it? With a heavy dose of THE FUNK, some 8-bit styles and an ear for a sweet tune:

Deadly news! Been really liking his productions this year. Digidesign is solely responsible for
getting me back interested in dubstep after a long break. Brilliant track.

Find him really irritating. There's a 2 hour mix of all those MAH sonar sets floating about.
It's completely ruined by him shouting a load of inane shit over everyones set throughout.

the 'set' was good but his 'Emcee-ing' ruined it for me.
the prick

Same as Kid606 a few weeks back - giving a DJ a mic is generally a very bad idea.

 

[johan doobay]

Kept wondering what Gaslamp was up to with the laptop in that video - at one stage, I thought he was using it as some air-guitar device. Not a good look. Have that Sonar set as well, the amount of times he roars "O H M Y G O D ! " is actually frightening. Not to mention his minute by minute bulletins on myspace. Unreal dj, but jesus man, shut up.

 

[paul-]

Ugh..annoyed just thinking about that. I've purposefully avoided listening to any of his music
purely based on how much of a dick he comes across as.

 

[cathalorourke]

Jasper ~ I heard that KID 606 was a TOTAL d*ck ~ is it true he was told to apologise to the crowd ?

 

[Don Rosco]

Any idea what time Joker might be on around, doing something else on friday

Yeah, 1am at the earliest, more likely 1.30. Plenty of time to do the DEAF fundraiser, or whatever, and still see Joker...

 

[TrevorReznik]

haha, unfortunately yes, a real nice guy sober, but a bad drunk, throwing cans at the crowd, thats was the apology was for.

 

[ernesto]

i dont subscribe to that.
throwing cans at the crowd is an asshole thing to do. intoxication doesnt excuse that sort of behavoiur

Agreed man, i just meant that it was a suprise and a let-down cos he seemed like such a sound head before the set.
The set was a let-down too, for me anyways. During the soundcheck he played an amazing 30mins, got me mad hyped for the nite, it was kinda like that savage xlr8r mix he done recently, but then his actual set was very different, kinda all over the place. lots of startin and stoppin. Manus Goan's set before 606 was the highlight for me. quality stuff.

 

[Franco]

Yeah, his set was shite. But Manus was good. Someone told me Kid 606 wants to release some of Manus's stuff on Tigerbeat.

 

[TrevorReznik]

Yup. 606 said he's up doin an EP or sumfink on Tigerbeat.
Well deserved. Chap is class.
That set was only his 2nd or 3rd set of his own stuff ever i think.
Impressive shit.
