APEXAPE Record Label Launch Party & First Release Info

BLAM.  This is tonight.  £1 entry too, canyerbelieveit?

On the 13th June 2013 APEXAPE head to Basing House to officially celebrate the launch of their record label and first release. Officially out on the 14th June and available through iTunes, Juno, Beatport and all other major digital stores the first release the “Curbcrawlers EP” by In The Rough, will be available for purchase. Already gaining support on the underground scene from the likes of Toddla T and B.traits, In The Rough set the tone for this EP with lashing tribal drums and booming sub basses set to shake up any club system. With tracks ranging from the Garage influenced Sewer Skank, tribal drums of Elephant Man, to the frenetic Grime anthem that is Boss, the “Curbcrawlers EP” sets its sites on sliding into all manner of sets with the sole aim of dancefloor destruction.



The launch night sees Warrior One headlining, fresh from a long stint in the studio creating his new sound and with a release imminent on Losing Suki, (Hypercolour’s little sister) combined with a £1 entry fee this launch night is set to bring right vibes. Backed up by the APEXAPE residents Benny Kane & Dr Specs, Daddy Nature, Soul Circuit and Coma King expect an amalgamation of sound spanning house, bass, garage, 4X4 and everything in between.

WE ARE FSTVL - MAY 2013

This looks good, eh!  Look at that line-up!!

It's no secret that the main support of House music is from people from Essex.  Whether or not they're the current migration of Hot Natured converts or not,  have you actually been to a House music Warehouse party recently?  Everyone's from Essex!  That's not a bad thing, the girls are FIT and hot girls into underground music is always a good thing.

Now, Essex looks like it's got a cracking festival right on it's doorstep.

They could sell out of tickets just from that line-up, but they're STILL announcing new arena partners and acts to fill 'em.  For example -

They're catering to the bassy-er side of things too with a new stage announcement of 'MistaJam Presents Speakerbox' - which is nice.  Get Low favourites Gorgon City are there along with our chums Majestic and DJ Cable too.  Jaguar Skills live, Sub Focus and Rudimental live headlining.


Where can I get my ticket already?

J.WALLIS MIX - It's dope!

Bang Tidy #01 - Smooth Vibes by J.Wallis on Mixcloud

Ain't it great when your best mates do the best mixes?  I feel a collective coming along.

J.WALLIS is a meticulous internet crate digger, and this mix is a fine reward for his efforts.  Our shovel-handed friend has curated a delicious mix of House and Techno (and Tech House, who knows anymore) that is 30 minutes of Stern.

GET LOW DOGSTAR BRIXTON EVERY THURSDAY

That's right - we're weekly, bitches!

Every single Thursday we're repping in Brixton at the town's beloved Dogstar.  We got different guests helping us out every week, and sometimes one genre or other will take our fancy that week.  So far it's been an absolute vibe, and we're stoked to be regular fixtures of Brixton's weekly nightlife.

And it's bloody free entry!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Heads up: They do a clubscan system so ID is absolutely required.  Just the way it is!

NYE

And if you're in Norwich....

Pre-sale tickets for both events sold out.  See you later!

BUGGED OUT WEEKENDER 2013

Bugged Out Weekender is great.

I went last year with a bunch of people.  Because you stay in a plush chalet rather than a tent you dont glide close to the sun like Icarus - you rocket straight into it and come out the other side with a bunch of new friends, new favourite artists, and legendary tales to win any pub one-upmanship contest.  Flat parties were as good as the official entertainment, and having that bed to come back to (especially if you shotgunned the double) means you could start each night afresh for more.

The word of mouth from last year has helped make this coming one almost a total sell-out.  That and a line-up curated by people who evidently know their shit:

YOUTUBE MUSIC CHANNELS YOU SHOULD BE SUBSCRIBED TO

Youtube is the main platform and utility where the average kid is finding and sharing new underground music.  That's true whether the artists themselves want to acknowledge it or not.

Frankly, the sheer torrent of new music that is being released is enough to drown many, many hours of the week.  It's good to have a few trusted selectors on side.

These are our choice of underground music channels that you should be subscribed to:

ALIASIZM




ONLY VIBEZ




ETON MESSY




MAJESTIC CASUAL




SUB SOUL




CERTIFIED JACKIN

GET LOW ft. NYTA, BEN PEARCE + MORE AT THE LOCK TAVERN /// FREE!

Mike Driver - How's My Driving? Vol. 2

Mike Driver - How's My Driving? Vol2 by Mikedriver on Mixcloud

Mike is my best mate (well, one of my best mates).

He also happens to be a pretty good driver and a damn good DJ.  This mix marks a forming musical aesthetic for the Driver - exciting times lie in the road ahead.

SEEDY SONICS this Friday - Birmingham

Get Low's been asked to showcase at the biggest underground clubnight in Birmingham, Seedy Sonics!

Seedy Sonics put on enormous sell-out events to a huge dedicated fan-base and seem to be growing in influence with every week that goes by.  Their warehouse parties are legendary.

It's an honour (and a Seedy Seal of Approval) to be invited, and we sure hope to be working with them more in the future.

I've been pouring over music and distilling the very best for what should be a very special set.  Hold tight gang, this one's gonna be a big one.

A bunch of free Shepdog tracks

Shepdog of Nice Up! notoriety is one of the finest mash-up and DJ tool creators around.  He's recently cleaned up his Soundcloud and made a load of tracks available for download.

Worth a peruse! The 'Marka' one is dope.

Sound System Social Club - Sat 22nd Sept @ The Albany

On Saturday 22nd at The Albany in Deptford, the Sound System Social Club will be hosting a three way soundclash not to be missed. 

As a particular treat on this momentous occasion you will find none other than King Tubby's Hifi going head to head against Trevor Sax & Sax 3 as well as our good mates Unit 137. And if that wasn't enough the whole thing is hosted by the legendary Don Letts. 

With a sound system EACH this night is gonna be filled with pure pure vibes to rattle the ribcage and get those knees a-skanking, coming highly recommended from yours truly. 

With tickets for just £12 theres no excuse to miss out. 

Be sure to check out Unit 137's site and merch, these guys have been killing it lately with some ridiculously HARD tunes brought out on their own label. If you don't already know, get to fucking know, a group of talented individuals with a raw passion for music that shines through in their hard work and dedication to share the sounds they love. Nuff time for them, big movements ahead, get involved now.
