Back in Marseille This Thursday @ La Dame Noir


 This Thursday I'm back in my favourite city of Marseille to enjoy some French culture, play and listen to some cool music and see good friends that I've met over the last few years. As always the evening starts at La Dame Noir bar with Japanese cuisine, cocktails and dark disco sound track until the early hours, then we continue into the early hours at La Dame Noir Dancing which is located at the Trolleybus, one of the oldest and coolest clubs in town located in a dark 17th century tunnel like gallery next to the harbour in Vieux Port. Marseille is steeped in culture and next year it has rightly been named the capital of culture so make sure you book your visit.

This time I'm visiting with my fiancée and one of me best mate's Lionel who also has built many friendships in the city. However 3 days as always seems not enough with obligatory visits to La Dame Noir every other night to see Kompakt's Kolombo, Gomma Records boss Munk and Marseille's very own Copyshop playing at the party until the early hours of Saturday and Sunday morning, but the music doesn't stop there as friend Matthieu Viktor from Soirées Loisirs is playing down at Oogie on Thursday and also DJ Oil over in Aix en Provence on Friday which will result in a cheeky train journey, plus the obligatory trip to Le Passe Temps to see Brice and the crew. Then there is yet another statutory visit to Kulte clothing to stock up on our wardrobe, on for some food at Spok and this wicked little Falafel joint next door called Au Falafel will have to be visited too, plus my favourite restaurants La Cantinetta, Le Yen and Chez Vincent, pints in Polikarpov, the list goes on of the places we need to see....  

Here is a mix from Copyshop who will be playing at the bar and club on my last night in the city as well as selections from some of the other La Dame Noir resident DJs Phred, Yann and Valentin. x

Two weeks á Marseille... C'est la ouate!


Just two weeks to go until the next installment of my Marseille love affair. Last time was my first visit to La Dame Noir's new club at Trolleybus, which is located just by the harbour on Vieux Port. This dark and dingy tunnel like club remdings me of The Attic in its glory days in Manchester, with the stereotypical La Dame Noir creepy voodoo disco twist perfectly complimenting the venue's darkness. The parties are a continuation of La Dame Noir bar's mischief from midnight until 6am every Thursday, Friday and Saturday night. I'm excited to be playing at the club on Thursday 9th August with the La Dame Noir crew and spending another long weekend of chilling, eating, drinking, shopping and dancing with my fiancée and good friends in this magical city.

For those that haven't visited this is how they like to party down south!

*New Tune!* Leo Outcast & Year of the Rat - State Supervision (100 WAV Downloads)


The latest collaboration with my studio partner Year of the Rat has now been uploaded to my soundcloud page. This again is a real mishmash of styles, taking hip hop and acid house to a new level. It kind of reminds me of the style of The Prodigy's 'Fat of the Land' album the way it has turned out, which was by no means the intention yet we're very proud of it all the same.

Tonight @ The Font, Manchester


Tonight I'm back at The Font on New Wakefield Street for my monthly slot playing some of my favourite music new and old, come and join me for a mojito or three. Until then here is a nice slab of disco goodness from the Generic People of Cork that is currently playing in my iTunes and will no doubt be creeping in tonight's playlist. I'm hoping the Irishman will be remixing one of my new tracks in the not so distant future, so watch this space.

Generic People - You Blow My Mind



I'm on from 9pm so hope to see you down there! x
