Hot City

Hot City has been gaining quite a reputation on the London underground having recently completed mixes for Mary Anne Hobbs as well as the ever reliable FACT magazine series. He is also a resident at London’s Wifey club night as well as the How’s My Raving events at Cargo. Simply put, Hot City produces relentless, unselfconscious dance-floor bangers that neatly triangulate hardcore, UK garage and jacking Todd Edward’s style New York House. With tight production and precision edits propelling his sound forward, Hot City seems to have successfully captured the ethos of the UK rave continuum and packaged it up into a driving 21st century sound that’s found favour from DJs as diverse as Drop The Lime and Hudson Mohawke.

Gon

You might have known him as the man behind the counter at the now sadly defunct Freebird Records shop in Dublin for the past five years.
But you should also know him as Gon, a fervent record collector and scratch dj, with an eclectic taste in music spanning from funk, jazz, reggae and hip hop right through to dubstep, UK Funky and the future garage sounds of today. It is through this prism that his unique take on the dubstep sound has been formed.

Gon had digital releases for the likes of Absys Records and Standard Records, and has just had his debut on Infrasonics with its infra12003 release.
Gon has also composed numerous soundtrack pieces for short films, documentaries and TV programmes.

Jamie Grind

“The main influences in my style – he says – are Low Deep, Todd Edwards, 2562, Karizma, Fabrice Lig, Theo Parish, Dem2, Dilla, 9th Wonder. Hence you can expect to hear Detroit strings, chopped and screwed r’n’b vocal edits, pitch bent synths tied up in shuffled 2-step and UK Garage rhythmic patterns”.
