Space Cadets DJ sets from 9th April, easter special!



Easily our most successful Space Cadets since starting this little night a few months back. Musically the sets by everyone were seriously top-notch! I heard some amazing new tunes as well as great mixing by all. Have a listen to the sets, you'll not be disappointed.We had packed dance floor throughout the night right until closing time at 5am! If it wasn't for the Easter Friday laws (every pub and club must close at 5am for some reason, argh) we would of gone on for longer!


A Huge Thank you goes out to Robbie Lowe who played an excellent set taking us through some great new progressive and house tunes as well as Dane Austin who treated us with a live set (check the video below) with the deep, techy and even a little dubstep sounds of Mr Austin. Also our headlining VJ Darko showed us 'how its done' with a great array of colourful, trippy and bizarre visuals and graphics, however words really cant do justice for VJs so definitely come and check him out at a future Space Cadets if your around the area.

Other DJs on the night were myself (Jamie Tek) managing to bash out some Audion, the new Reboot new track Ronson, which was extremely well received, as well as some Daypyk and some awesome new Tom Clark & Daniel Dreier tracks. Unfortunately my recorder lost its 'juice' halfway through my set so consider it a littler taster of what happened in those early hours. Also after my set Timmy Maxwell dropped by for a 'surprise' set with me, Timmy and Alex playing tunes until close.

Chris Leffers started the night out with some extremely funky minimal house tracks that were perfect to get the groove going, after which Nic Scali took over to give us a good dosage of some of the lastest tech-house and minimal tracks going around right now. Alex Caminer warmed up for Robbie Lowe with a great moody techno track selection that had the floor heaving. Think italoboyz and Radioslave latest monster Koma Koma.

Dane Austin - A 'mini'-interview



Ladies and Gentlemen, I present one of Sydney's well known minimal/electronic underground figure, Dane Austin. Interviewed fresh from his Sunday School gig and filmed on location in Sydney's infamous Kings Cross. Dane updates us on how his Cresent Music label is going, highlights of 08 & of course the low-down on the up-coming Channel warehouse party and to keep that on the down-low...



Dane Austin Myspace

Cresent music will be releasing an compilation CD soon check here for some of the artists signed and I'll post details on the up-coming Midi in The City Party soon. For those of us who dont know Midi In The City is a music event dedicated to live electronica. Last time it had a huge array of new and emerging talent from Sydney with everyone giving the night rave reviews. Expect the same for the next one.

As for the warehouse party? Stay tuned for my new section 'Warehouse watcher' (sounds creepy eh!?)

Sunday School recap + upcoming parties from the SS crew

Despite being a little quiet last Sunday School was nevertheless bursting with quality tunes.




Fresh from Peats Ridge Festival & Technique NYE warehouse party Dane Austin made his second SS appearance with his live set-up that never ceases to impress! It consisted of a Akai sampler connected to a Zip Drive (old school man), a Yamaha something (didn't quite catch what it was) and a pioneer effects unit EFX1000, all used to great effect! Theres nothing quite like a live set and Dane Austin's sets are something not to be missed. Oli, Dave Stuart and Alex Marsh all played great sets while I (Jamie Tek) warmed up with blur of different styles.

BUT Sunday School crew are off to a good year with the 2nd SHRUG party coming up in February and a venture with THE BOX crew and DJs which sees some of the best Sunday school djs spin it up on the infamous Friday night. Spaning the Bunker and the terrace (above the Bourbon!) and ft. Deepchild this will be an epic night. More details as they come to light, stay tuned...

NEXT SUNDAY SCHOOL 18TH OF JANUARY BE SURE TO COME CHECK OUT THE NEW TALENT AND SAY HI!
