Room 1

ALEX METRIC (Marine Parade)

Alex is one of the undisputed dj/producer heavyweights in Britain. He was crowned Remixer of The Year in 2008, after beating Justice and Soulwax to the title. He presents Radio 1's In New DJs We Trust show. In January Clash magazine ranked him at number two in their list of best DJs of 2010, second only to Brodinski. His 'In Your Machine' EP in 2008 fired a keytar-shaped missile into a number of electronic genres, and resulted in a fistful of top remix request from the likes of Phoenix, Ladyhawke, and Gorrilaz. As well as his stand out remixes Alex's dj sets are at the cutting edge of dance music, expertly mixing the best of bass heavy house, urban, disco and techno. Check out his latest mix below, it's full of dancefloor grenades!

Alex Metric: DJ Mix - Aug 2010 by alexmetric

ALI LOVE (Back Yard Recordings) live

You'll probably best know Ali for providing the memorable vocal hook to the Chemical Brothers hit 'Do It Again' in 2007, but he's an innovative and charasmatic dance musician and vocalist in his own right. He released a string of eclectic Italo-influenced dance-pop tracks on Columbia Records, after which he took some time out to find a new direction. He's now back with a debut album more aimed at the dance floor, influenced by Italo-house rhythms, vintage keyboard/drum machines, and a lot of sub-bass. Ali will be playing a full live set of his new material with his band on Saturday night, and playing a one off dj set for us on Sunday night as well.

MATT WALSH (Turbo Recordings)

Bugged Out! resident Matt Walsh will be smashing it on the decks in the main room alongside Alex Metric. Matt is one of the best djs in London at the moment, which is why Tiga signed Matt to his record label (Turbo) after hearing Matt play at T Bar. Matt always pushes the envelope with new and interesting dance music, while remaining focused on the dancefloor. Expect to hear the best that Electronic House and Techno, New Wave, Acid House, and Disco have to offer from Matt on Halloween.

MATT WAITES (Nightmoves /Moscow / G&S)

Matt Waites is a massively talented producer/dj, with at least 3 projects on the go at the moment: as a member of Electric Fling (w/ In Flagranti, Rory Phillips and Nadia Ksaiba), as one half of G&S (Dissident / Codek), and under the moniker Moscow. Matt first made his mark under the moniker Nightmoves on Kitsune Records with an array of killer remixes for the likes of Roisin Murphy, Friendly Fires, Delphic, & loads more. He then started the Moscow project to make deeper, atmospheric music, with several great releases on Thisisnotanexit. Expect a set of expertly mixed moody house, techno, and disco from Matt at PMD.

Room 2

THE C90s (Relish Recordings)
Stopmakingme (Kill Em All)
Jac The-Disco (Kill Em All / Fabric)
Ben Scales (resident)
Coinciding with the launch of their single, 'Shine A Light' on 22nd October, we have The C90s headlining room 2. Having received big support from the likes of Erol Alkan, Jacques Renault, and Bang Gang, The C90s are the hottest emerging disco/house talent signed to Headman's Relish Recordings. Their Filthy Dukes remix was voted Remix of the Month by Mixmag back in December, and they are definitely one to watch.

They'll be joined on the decks by Simian Mobile Disco's handpicked tour support dj, Stopmakingme (Kill Em All). Smm is well known for his ability to create genre defying dance sets which take in heavy electro, mutant new wave, disco, pulsing techno and post-punk, and still sound amazing.

The C90s September Chart Mix by TheC90s

Joining them on the decks in room 2 will be inimitable party veterans Jac The-Disco (Kill Em All / Fabric). Not unfamiliar with throwing their own massive shindigs once in a while, their MIXES take in anything from Chicago House to Cosmic Disco via House and Techno. They'll be joined by Potty Mouth resident Ben Scales who'll be playing anything from acid-house and techno through to disco, retro house and electro.

Room 3

Hosting room 3 is a collective of the freshest and most original bloggers in east London, We Are Not A Rock Band. Having established a consistently forward-thinking dance music blog, the WANARB crew are turning up en masse to rock Potty Mouth. Having thrown several of their own sell out underground warehouse parties this year, they definitely know how to get a dancefloor going. Not for the faint hearted, expect a mix of stomping electro, industrial strength techno, and all mixture of things that go bleep in the night. Can't wait!

DAY 2 - The Nest, Dalston

On Sunday we're putting a night on at a brand new club in Dalston which isn't even open yet, The Nest! We're doing the sweaty full on rave on saturday night, so on Sunday we're going to the newest party basement in town to dance ourselves clean. Expect a big dancefloor, a bigger sound system, and some HUGE TUNES!
BOTTIN (Italians Do It Better /Bearfunk)
Flying in from Italy for a special one off UK show for us is one of the finest purveyors of electronic disco in the world, WILLIAM BOTTIN. Will has been releasing funk-drenched disco records for over a decade, but it's more recently that he's been at the forefront of the Italo-Disco revival with releases such as the seminal Fondamente Nove (Eskimo Records, 2008) and No Statis (Italians Do It Better, 2009). His critically acclaimed concepts album, Horror Disco (Bearfunk Records UK, 2009) is full of catchy bassline hooks and heavy analogue melodies perfect for the dancefloor. Hot off an Australian tour, expect Bottin to take you on an unpredictable musical journey into space disco, italo rarities, thick basslines, and future disco!

NADIA KSAIBA & MATT WAITES - G&S dj set

We're very excited to have G&S down for a special dj set. G&S is Nadia Ksaiba and Matt Waites, who are both great djs/producers in there own rights. Nadia has a reputation for playing seamless, genre spanning sets which merge disco with anything from techno, new wave punk funk, to Chicago house and synth pop. Matt also has a reputation for breaking the mould, mixing up different styles, and always managing to make it work. As well as forming part of Electric Fling with In Flagranti and Rory Philips, G&S have released several monster underground tracks on Dissident and Codek. We haven't got a clue what Matt and Nadia have in store for us at PMD, but you can guarantee it'll get the dancefloor going!


ALI LOVE dj set

We're very excited to have Ali Love back again on the Sunday night to play a one off dj set for us. Bottin did an amazing dancefloor remix of Ali's Smoke & Mirrors in the summer, which we loved, and we thought it might be fun to get them together on the decks. Ali will be cutting loose and playing everything from early influences in his life such old school funk and disco through to modern bass-heavy rarities he knows will get the dancefloor going. As Ali puts it, "girls respond to deep bass. Ultimately, that's a very interesting prospect"...
