With Sheffields' electronic music scene blooming at the moment, being made up of new nights poppin' up all over the place and the usual crowds gaining more members every week - I thought it best I find out more about some of the few nights that originally pioneered this huge wave of electronic music round the city. For this post, I interviewed Thomas Weatherall, who set up No Uniform at The (legendary) Harley. It runs on the fourth Friday of every month and has played host to some of the best and memorable nights Sheffield's electro [...]

Been a bit dry round these parts hasn't it? Time for a super post I think... Reckon I've got the perfect tune to splash away the drought, and as far as I know this is currently a blog world exclusive. Cheeky. Two words. Bass. Weazal . Yep, they are back again on Louis Louis with another mega bass-riddled remix, this time re-working Moby's 'Raining Again'. Rainin' (Bass Weazal's Acid Rain Remix) - Moby Because Boxstr's a dick (I'm hoping they read this), here's a couple alternative links [...]
Just when I thought the blog world had fallen on it's arse a bit at the moment, this song jumped into my inbox. It's literally made my week. Bit o' bio, basically, Adam Freeland , the electronica demi-god has formed a band, simply called 'Freeland'. It's more one of those 'supergroups' really, as the line-up includes stars like Kurt Baumunn on vox, Distillers guitarist Tony Bevilacqua, Marilyn Manson/Nine Inch Nails cohort Twiggy Ramirez on bass and DEVO legend Jerry Casale who provides [...]
If you're in Sheffield on Friday night, you should come to DQ Upstairs. There's a brand new night called Krooked and it promises to be huge, your next Friday night regular.

Aaaand MUGSHOTS . Who is me and my bezzie Chris. We'll be playing out for the first [...]
You may remember me talking about Don Diablo back in December last year, since then, as predicted, he's gotten pretty big in the scene. He's made quite a stir in the blog world since I last spoke about him too, getting a few 'Most Popular' tracks on Hype Machine. This is nothing compared to what he's got in store for this year, he has two upcoming EP's, 'Too Cool For School' and 'Disco Disco Disco' both getting worked on by none other than Trevor Loveys and Soulwax faves In [...]
Thought I'd give you Sheffield ' Wonk ' attenders a few teaser treats for Mustard Pimp's arrival on the 18th, as they just sent over some '09 buzz which couldn't have come at a better time! Not to exclude non-Sheffieldians in the slightest though, I love you all, equally.... Eh, here's some more Mustard Pimp craziness fresh off the rack!! Woo! You may remember me featuring them back in November where I mentioned they were like Crookers on speed. My opinion and their style hasn't changed, it's still crazy party electro, which I love. Electro's getting a bit [...]
For those of you who don't know who SPA are, they make music that is 'part calm, part joyful, part violent, part dark'. And are from Paris. So... they're cool right? They started out on the scene in 2007, got a few remixes out for such people like Mickey Moonlight, Pacific! and Neimo and then got signed to Dim Mak Records mid last year. SPA deserve this quick rise to electro glory as they are doing something that little bit different, its new and fresh and makes 2009 a year [...]
