London Wedding - Lovely sunny weekend for the wedding at the Lensbury and this normally means a fairly chilled evening till the temperature drops. Not so for this wedding, having 300 guests and a free bar obviously helped in getting the party going from the first dance. The guests had flown in from all over the world and everybody was in a tuxedo or gown there were two wedding cakes and even doves.... It really was a fun day as you
Played at a great wedding on Saturday, the music they wanted was chilled during the wedding breakfast and then Indie Dance for the party afterwards. The venue was a lovely house in Virginia waters complete with pond and its own swimming pool and the guest where a mixture of Farmers and lawyers so a very demanding crowd. In the words of the groom this is how they felt it went.... "Thank you so much for yesterday- you made a huge
What an amazing event I was asked to be part of last week. I was a corporate party at the new Lodge Farm Barns in Nazeing a beautiful new rural venue located just outside London. The venue are mainly aiming for the wedding market but take on corporate work midweek as well. Unlike most wedding barn venues they have managed to hold on to that rustic feel and they have the benefit of being run by the lovely Bryony for whom
Visual Jockey or VJ - Visual Jockey's are becoming more and more part of the event scene and finding someone who understands both the art of performance and the performance of art is important to you having the kind of event you are after. I can design shows around a theme or a logo, the more simplistic the core theme the better and more effective the visuals tend to be. Having worked in large venues like the Roundhouse and CooperBox
London 18th Party, 150 guests and a great night. I played a mixture of remixes of current tunes, plus some classics to keep the dancefloor going right from the start. My new JBL sub woofer which goes down to 30hz really helped with this kind of event. This what was said afterwards: Hi Paul I just wanted to say thank you for providing such a great service on Saturday 31st March for Daisy's 18th Birthday party. Daisy and her friends had
Indie dance night at Groucho Club - Soho London The Groucho Club remains a bastion and refuge for arts, literature and media folk in the bohemian heart of London’s West End. This was such a great night in one of Soho's most cosmopolitan clubs. In the crowd was Andrew Ridgley from Wham and Rusty Egan from the Visage.

90's music - The 90’s started where the 80’s finished off musically but then we saw Electronic music, which had increased in popularity in the 1980s, grew highly very in the 1990s; house and techno from the 1980s rose to international success in this decade, as well as new electronic dance music genres such as Techno and Trance. Not being left behind in the 90s either was Hip-hop which had done well in the eighties also. Rock and Pop
Fifty Funky Party - This Funky Fifty something wanted to relive his youth with music he heard in the clubs back in the day. A bit of Funk finished of with some 90's House and a few Faithless tracks. Here are some of the comments from the guests: "the music was the best I have had for years, my feet are still hurting...." “Your work the other night was brilliant, I’m no aficionado, but that was the best music and
Alternative 80's night in Tanzania - While in Zanzibar, I also played at an 80's event. They did not want the normal 80's cheese and chart music but a cooler more club like set. The tracks I played where like a Blitz meets the Hacienda type set and for me a really enjoyable challenge. Talking with Myself '98 (Canny Remix) Electribe 101 Fade to grey nu mix cinematic Rusty Egan Colourfield - virgins and philistines -
Zanzibar - I was invited by Pete Bones DJ and the owner of Red Ant Records to play with him 5 times over 10 days in Zanzibar. The venue was the Coral Rock Hotel Zanzibar an amazing place with great staff who like to party, but also want the guests to have a real experience on the island. Musically the brief for the first night I play was Tech House and Afro/Tribal House, we would be playing after a party being held
