Podcast: Disco Matt’s Summer Scorchers 2011

The third in the collaboration between scene party boy Disco Matt and yours truly, Brent Nicholls…this mix has been the blender for nearly a month with one track or another sabotaging it’s completion.

After a reshuffle of tracks, adding and subtracting, re-adding and creating an epic worthy of a Ben Hur movie, the final platters that matter have been laid down to rest and here is the Third Podcasts in the Disco Matt series.

Disco Matt says about this mix….”DM’s “Summer Scorchers” podcast, the wait is almost over – Well, just like Disco Matt’s very existence, the production of the latest podcast in the emerging series of musical collaborations between London’s original party boy and scene favourite D.J. Brent Nicholls, has been something of a roller-coaster ride, one track continuing to send the mix off the rails. However, with the most anticipated marriage of musical minds since Benny & Bjorn having successfully cleared a counselling session, the eagerly awaited ten track triumph that that looks set to zoom up the download charts, “Summer Scorchers”, is now in the final mix pressing and will be ready for release within the next 48 hours. …” and here it is!

Disco Matt Reviews ‘Casa Latino 2011′

Disco Matt reviews Casa Latino as part of his March Podcast line up.

He says

Hot on Steve’s heels is another D.J. who has been filling our musical boots with banging beats since those Crash days and never fails to get us ”Doing The Disco Matt” these days, whether it be at Industri, down in Lo-Profile, across at Lovechild or even away from the sling at Hard On! (oops that’s cousin Crisco Matt!) and more often than not, when we are peddling around London’s roads. Indeed, while we were away in South Africa, Brent’s compilations were filling our ears by the poolside, down on the beach & even up on Table Mountain, not least his latest & third creation of 2011, harping back to his “No Americano” release a few months ago, but this one crammed with up to date Latino beats. Indeed, when you think of Latino music mixed in the modern way, there is no better exponent of this art, Brent?, well Brent Nicholls of course.

So in “Casa Latino” (full title includes “No Americano Two”) he pulls of the Latin beats brilliantly and we simply couldn’t resist downloading it while in Cape Town and bouncing along Seapoint’s main road laughing, grinning & getting weird looks as a result, that’s how entertaining we find this compilation. And from the off, Mr Nicholls gets you in that Latino mood with a catchy number “Swing Time”, although it was (and still is) “Mi Cha Cha” that caused those hilarious outbursts in Cape Town, although with a full 18 tracks to choose from, all brilliantly blended by Brent, this departure from the dancefloor norm is amazingly addictive.

DISCO MATTS DANCETASTIC TOP 20 of 2010′

It was a collaboration made in disco heaven when Disco Matt, London’s original party boy and webmaster of www.discomatt.com, gave me a top40 list of his hottest tunes. After making MMX- two volumes of my favourite 50 tunes of 2010…it was a natural I would offer Mr Disco his very own compilation…and here it is!

DANCETASTIC TOP 20 of 2010

DANCETASTIC TOP 20 of 2010

The story is much longer than just that, and what started as a top 40  turned into a top 30 which is now a top 20. These aren’t his top 20 of the year, but are tracks extracted from his original top 40…some tracks, after all, just don’t go together no matter how hard you scrunch, munch, filter and glue. Matts eclectic taste is reflected in this compilation, and some of the mixes were challenging but created some interesting but succesful moments by the fusing of different genres in order to create segways to another genre was all part of the fun.

It quite obvious that many of Matt’s favourites were also my favourites, which I guess defines the word popularity…but this mix could easily be considered MMX volume 3…The Disco Matt Mix. Not to steal this away from him, I have added this to my site for you to listen and download as the DISCO MATT DANCTASTIC TOP 20.

Matt will also be given a link for him to distribute to his FaceBook fanbase and from his website……

Enjoy the mix and remember..do the DISCO MATT!

Get On MyGayFace.com Tops 2010 Podcasts

My podcast GET ON MYGAYFCE.COM tops DISCO MATT’S
retrospective of the BEST PODCASTS of 2010.

GET ON MyGayFace.com

GET ON MyGayFace.com

Originally made exclusively for the
members of the new MyGayFace.com social network, the demand
was so high I put it on general release. When I made this mix I
wanted it to be fun. uplifting and the best representation of
nuFUNK house, the non specific, non-genre sound that was more about
a feeling and was equally found in funky house to progressice or
tech house. This was the return of funkiness into dance music. The
mix contains an eclectic selection of tracks highlighting the
nuFunk style…. DISCO MATT is one of London’s more controversial
club reviewers, On his website www.discomatt.com he previews,
reviews and includes many features of music, clubbing and
international events. He is a house music enthusiast and in his
compilation of the top 10 podcasts of 2010, he admits the choice
was difficult but GET ON MYGAYFACE.COM won by a siingle tune…
‘stereo love’ …that gained significant meaning to him on a personal
basis while on tour with LoveChild in Belgium. In his own words he
says:

“Then we come to our third and one of a
staggering 22 mixes that Brent Nicholls complied in 2010, many
which could have made it into our top five, were it not for the
other four. His “Let’s Chant” compilation for example was
incredible, as was his “Aural” mix & his devotion to his
appearance at Beyond Pervert. However, it was his “Get On
MyGayFace” mix that made it to our top three, like the others,
littered with incredible records from start to finish, the 15 track
composition originally created especially for members of the new
social networking site , MyGayFace”, hence the title on the mix.
However, such was the demand for this amazing mix, Brent released
it onto his website for general download, although we were lucky to
get our own copy on the day of first release, it immediately
pressing all of our musical buttons, not least with records “Upside
Down”, “I Just Can’t Hold Back” & “Et Moi”, from two
artists that really did it for us in 2010, Audio Jackers and Lissat
& Voltaxx. But it would be a mind-blowing remix of “Release
Me” and then an even more majestic Mollela version of Edward Maya
& Vika Jigulina’s heart wrenchingly stunning “Stereo Love”
that ended up securing this compilation in our top three. So was it
a dead heat three? Well we couldn’t separate Steve Pitron &
Mikey D, but at the eleventh hour in our summing up of our year of
music, Brent Nicholls edged the other two, not just in recognition
for his impressive amount of releases in 2010, but when it came
down to the wire, it was the “Stereo Love” track made that
essential difference, as more than any other record in our year, it
held & continues to hold the most memorable moments in our
travels, whether to or from a club or out on our two wheels, but
especially during our trips to Berlin & Antwerp for which
both “Stereo Love” & “Get On MyGayFace” will always remain
synonymous and very much number one.”

Review: The Week

The questions is should I really be reviewing the clubs I work at…and the answer, why not…who else better than someone on the inside!

The Week

The Week

THE WEEK, direct from Brazil, saw FIRE return to form with a packed and up for it crowd out for one thing…fun! It was a rather mixed crowd in terms of quality…from Hot Brazilian studs to the dosed up Vauxhall trash…but it all seemed to merge perfectly into a crowd all out for a good time. Steve Pitron & Mikey D mixed a turbo charged sounding but very appropriate mix for the main room which looked absolutely stunning with pieces of art hanging from the ceiling, lasers , fantastic led wall (very Oliver M aka when he was in control of Matinee)…yes, the new main room at Fire was looking stunning!

The gogos were very good too, especially Mr White Shorts (see video), Edson Costa (who is usually behind the camera and not in front of it) and Rikardo Machio (search him on FaceBook). There was another one who was a little too girly and posy for my taste…at least these were men gogos being men and not dressed in ridiculous high heels and girly costumes which seem to infiltrate the London scene as response to the Spanish invasion of clubs. Bring back the hunks!

My room, the Latin Lounge as I called it, rocked longer than expected to a mix of percussive, progressive and tribal house…in the very NO AMERICAN way….but the call of Beyond sonn empties most of Fire by 5.30ish in the morning. Djing from 3.00 meant I missed the Brazilian carnival show which was typical of such show..tits, feather and hot near naked muscle boys!

The Mirror Arch, usually the centre of attention suffered at the hands of super star DJs Pitron/Mikey D on the main floor and the new lighting/laser/layout…but it still had its dedicated followers.

Disco Matt was in full form on the dance floor reviewing and grooving….you can  read his review too at http://discomatt.blogspot.com

Anyway..enough of words…check out my video I made for SeenQueen.com below or see the pics at http://seenqueen.com/web/2010/10/club-pix-the-week-18-9-2010/
