Having previously showcased the considerable talents of Oneman, Bok Bok (Night Slugs co-founder), Lil Silva, Damu and Jo Kira, in famous venues such as Sankeys, 93 Feet East and in their current residence; Joshua Brooks, Manchester.
Chow Down – bringing the cutting edge of UK & bass music ranging from grime, hip hop, garage, funky and dub.
‘In their opening three events, Manchester’s new bass-driven club night CHOW DOWN have hosted; Bok Bok, Lil Silva, Oneman, Damu and Jo Kira. That alone, speaks volumes. Bearing in mind that’s occurred in only the last 4 months, the clan have enormous plans for the future. After starting to smash a niche market square in the face, CHOW DOWN have unsurprisingly secured a residency at Manchester’s intimate Joshua Brooks venue.’
The Electric are the brand new super outfit from DJ Vadim and friends. Friend of Dirt Cheap, the incredibly talented; Sabira Jade recently attended our Issue .01 launch party. We love some cross promotion, so for those not up to scratch here is who they are and what they do…
The Electric for me are songs that are filled with more joy, more sadness, more triumph, more faith in the supernatural, much deeper feelings – DJ Vadim
Life is Moving EPK.
Life is Moving is more than just the great catch phrases, or driving pulse riddims and bashy bass-lines that lay within it, this is modern soul music taken to the next level. Vadims varied and playful production style takes influences from iconic sounds of the 70s, 80s, through to the present and beyond, yielding a futuristic sound that is tinged with vintage dust. Its got big drums, cranking vintage synths and Moogs, dark moody passages, upbeat moments and some straight-up bugged out-ness too and the songs speak from the heart whether theyre sung, rapped or spoken. This isnt a throwback to sounds from ages past; The Electric embodies a passion, and Pugs, Sabira and Vadim have molded a futuristic, next level amalgam of their fire to create the warmth in your chest when you hear a song that speaks to you. 2011 will be Electric.

My best friends are in an awesome band called Extra Curricular, they’ve made a video about what they’ve been upto this summer.
I’m so proud of them, they are going to be huge and they deserve it. More talent in each member than in most of the commercial shit filling the music industry.
They gig all over and are amazing live, check out there music and get more information here:
