Vince Watson is renowned for producing music expressing raw emotion and feelings from the heart. His latest efforts for Tresors whopping 244th release is no deviation from this expectation. The Glaswegian producer has had techno running through his veins since an early age and can throw down a pure, unrivaled sound that many others could only dream of. The title track pays homage to the crude techno sounds Watson is so accustomed to, however it's the B Side that really takes the cake for me. The Secret relies on rhythmic delays and techno drums to keep [...]

(Gary Glitter would be loving this shit) To celebrate this birthday the mighty Danny Krivit is headlining this truly awesome party... definitely worth the effort.

Tweet Time and time again we've seen bands with an interesting or mysterious background help bring them to fame ( The Weeknd or WU LYF come to mind, for example), but, really, this is a music business, and the music should really do most of the talking. French Wives hail from Glasgow, Scotland and wish they had an interesting back-story as to how the band formed. Instead, they've got some great tunes to serve as their introduction. The five members of the Scottish band (Siobhan [...]

The Girobabies are under no illusions when it comes to platinum selling records and rockstar status, their regional bluntness and utter satisfaction in digging lyrical mischief towards a cracked social system would never allow such a monstrous thought - although with a wry smile and a Glaswegian wink, they`d probably die trying. The album `Bus Stop Apocalypse` is a mad-eyed collective finding themselves through a cross section of musical influences and sheer bloody mindlessness encapsulated by a raised middle finger - A mix mash of suburban genres and glorious subcultures, the lyrical content is as calming as a Government health warning [...]

Is it just me or is there a lack of free old skool rave nights taking place in bowling clubs in Glasgow? The 48k collective thought so and their first event back in November was a bit of a belter. Free entry, a quality rave atmosphere in a unique venue, quality tunes, quality banter and quality fairly cheap beer, gallus. Their next event takes place this Friday (13th January) at the Burnbank Bowling Club on Great Western Road (just across from Dram or Uisge Beatha as it was formerly known). It's free to [...]
