SEPTEMBER 24
Start transmission –
Tahl signing in for the absent Feigan this week – the slack prick was off
somewhere else for the night!
Anyway…Whether you’re a footy head, you don't care about the grand old game or
you enjoy the non busy shopping of the last Saturday in September - Grand Final
day is a super special day in the Melbourne diary.... and a great night in the
beat suite followed aptly...
Arriving @ Volume quite early on Saturday night and headed into the Beat Suite
to have a few starters... Fusion was playing his funky mix of 4x 4
electro/house; the ladies seemed to enjoy this boy’s taste in tunes quite a
lot! Enter our new front room hero - TKO.
I was very, very impressed with TKO's set a
couple of weeks ago in the Suite of Beat, even though he said he was a tiny bit
off that night (21st birthday alcohol syndrome), so I was looking
forward to round 2 of TKO (no pun intended). With tight mixing and great track
selection he had the floor cooking in no time, dropping electro house re-works
of the new Whites Stripes track amongst other dirty synthed out house numbers….
I spent most of the time leading up to AG Ren's set chatting with the bloke -
the natural energy in him is something special
… always smiling and eager to get behind the decks. With his hands in the air
and some great facial expressions the boy killed it, a mix of booty Breaks and
House was in order.
I disappeared for sometime into the main to do the 4 - 5:30 slot, but as I have
much faith in my great friend Rowie and his musical expertise... I dashed into
the Beat Suite too see how he was going. I was pleased to see his trademark
eclectic sound was getting great reactions from the punters left @ 5:30....
Feigan’s back next week, so be prepared for more shenanigans!
Track of the week - White Stripes Booty - dropped by TKO

Another solid affair in
the Beat Suite this week with the birthday celebrations of the wonder kid known
as AG!
We kicked off
proceedings on a nice housey tip this week – The Birthday Boy & friends smashed
out a quality set of all things House. On a quiet note – the young jock that AG
bought down to warm the crowd rocked it out to all reports. Given that the young
fella has only been spinning for 6 months, he’s looking @ a quality future given
his level of talent!
Anyhow, on with the
show. AG – hats off to you again mate on a great Bday set – AG’s been going from
strength to strength since he returned from his OS trip recently – must have
something to do with the ridiculous amount of money he spent on vinyl over
there!! AG set things up with a solid dance floor for the ever reliable Rowie.
James presented himself once again and took the reigns from AG, who had built a
lovely dance floor for the Bamboozled head honcho. Rowie yet again, raised the
bar with his eclectic mix of house and electro that had the majority of the
front room beggin for more and more, until he finished and yours truly stepped
up to the plate.
A slight move in audio
direction led us to the infamous broken beat – my favourite! Lots of fun party
breaks followed with a slight move back to the ever reliable 4 x 4 sound that’s
been emanating from the Beat Suite of late. TKO was next on the list and we
needed to get our latest recruit back to his 4 x 4 homeland to close out
proceedings.
TKO and I played versus
for a little while until he grabbed the console by the balls and went nuts with
a perfect closing set for the front room – I was a wee bit weary come 6am so I
didn’t catch the tail end of proceedings, but from all reports – TKO took things
through till the wee hours of Sunday morning and peeps where still up for more.
Next week sees Tahl
out of action @ Gods Kitchen – so we’ll be ramping things up a notch while the
young cat is away with our trademark blend of booty shakin, baby makin, cake
bakin funk fuelled audio delight!
So - Come get bizzle
in tha beat suiteizzay
Yeah yeah - bad izzleing on my part! I just wanna be cool like all the other blingbangizzle
posse!
Feigan – once again,
signing out

Spontaneous was the flavour of the night last Saturday, I started proceedings
with the Sancho @ 3.00 in the afternoon with a few relaxing Saturday afternoon
lagers and proceeded to a school reunion in Richmond, moved on to the Lithuanian
Club in North Melbourne to catch Arj Barker’s last show (Very funny guy!) and
then high tailed it to Room to arrive to a
nicely filled club.
Ag Ren jumped on deck (almost literally) at 1.00 and warmed an ever ready crowd
with a smashingly good mix up of breaks & house – this fella has some quality
goodness in his crate at the moment and it’s a treat to see him in action on a
regular basis in The Beat Suite. Anywho – after many lagers and back and forward
dancing I stepped in to take over from AG who was well
ready to spend some well earned quality time with his good friend the bar.
A bit of a mixed bag this week – a bit of 4 x 4 has
creeped into the case lately and I followed on AG style for a while before
dropping a couple of lovely new breaks tunes I picked up @ DMC last week.
Stantons new tune Pop ya Cork & The Evil 9 remix of Freeform Five’s new one –
much fun was had, especially by me and the amount of Asahi bottles that where
starting to pile
up next to me. Enough was enough as I tumbled out of the console and gave up the
head phones for James.
Rowie showed up and put forth a solid Rowie set – a crazy sound has been coming
out of the sound system lately when he’s in charge. Taking things through till
5, Rowie was a weary little fella after doing the Bamboozled Volume double on
the weekend so he retired to the bar for a warm down session, but not after I
made him play I’m a Man of constant Sorrow Skeewif
tune – sorry Rowie, had to be done.
TKo came and drove the morning bus home – kicking things off early with the
Soulwax remix of Dare (I think – don’t quote me as Asahi bottle 10 or 11 had now
piled up) and took the club home to 7. He’s taken the closing set on
with ease over the past couple of weeks – it’s the perfect way to finish things
up!
Anyhow – that’s the tall and the short of it – come and see us next week as we
welcome Tahl back after a 2 week hiatus which has involved interstate travel and
GK responsibilities.
You might have heard Harley & I on Kiss on Friday night aswell filling in for
Andy Van & Cam Denney’s Vandalism TV radio show. Not sure when we’ll be on
again, but we’ll keep you posted on when to tune in.
Rock the Casbah people

We had a crazy birthday week in the Beat Suite this week, Room’s all round great
bloke Mark had the front room cooking early in the piece while we celebrated my
lovely ladies birthday in the dining room listening to the celebrious electro
main room sound through resident jock’s Steve Bleas, Mark James & Ivan (I know a
good marinade) Gough.
1.00 came around which cued us to make the forward move to the Beaten of
Sweeten. Baz Emera was finishing up and had a nice warm cosy Room rocking away
when we walked in. Rowie & Tahl where on deck for a four hour of power
session. The lads have been rocking thing steadily week in and week out lately –
you’ll be sure to catch the troublesome two at any number of venues around town,
anyhow, things finished up pretty early when the lads closed up
shop @ 5.00.
I’m out @ Beats Working this week, Tahl, Rowie & Co will be rocking the
Casbah post Bamboozled on Friday night.
Until next week….

In
Feigan's absence Tahl is signing in for the Beat Suite this week....
Well it was up to TKO to start procedings in the Beat Suite this
week, and warm it up nice and toasty is exactly what he did, with some warm
Ibiza styled electro that worked really well with the ladies.. Then it was an
'Up and Coming Force to Be Reckoned with' Matt Peri to take control of the
wheels of steel. Now I like my electro and house dirty and dark and sexy and
Matt's music was all of that an more, MP had the crowd going into a frenzy by
the time he
finished.
AG
Ren and his fellow team of live bongo musicians took to the stage, always like
watching AG play, great energy, great crowd reading as well. He mixed up funky
breaks, house and a smidge of electro in his 1.5hr set, dropping new big tracks
such as the new Electric Press EP. Now I had the hard task of following on after
AG, and try as I might the crowd did thin, I scratched, wound back and looped my
arse off but it seemed many people had spent a long day @ the races drinking and
so we closed the Beat Suite (sniff sniff) at an early 4:30am.
This
will not be the case next week as the Beat Suite massive is back in full effect
with Rowie and Feigan back on deck. Until then.... be good (insert evil laugh).
