Kiel ‘MC’ Caesar memorial show this Friday

December 12th, 2013  / Author: Sarcastro

caes

Hard to believe it’s been two years now since we had to say goodbye to Kiel, and like last year we’re getting together to remember one amazing guy. Not only was he a huge part of our scene as a promoter and an MC but he was a great friend to so many of us as well

Tomorrow (Friday, December 13th) Rough Crew & School of Bass invite you come join us to rinse out and remember what a great friend, family member and MC Kiel really was.

At Midnight we silence the bar to raise our drinks to the sky and have a moment of silence in honour of Kiel.

Sarcastro – Live at School of Bass #43 @ Brixton’s Pub

June 25th, 2013  / Author: Sarcastro

I rarely post sets without tracklists or anything below 320kbps but I just received this recording from a show earlier this year (Saturday April 27th, 2013) and I figured I’d share it in lieu of the 7D set I promised recently (which is still coming, just at a later date)… if anybody wants any of these tracks identified, just shoot me a quick email with the track time(s) and I’ll do my best!

Cheers, hope everyone had a great Christmas and has a safe New Years 🙂

Your favourite (well, our favourite) multi-genre-everything-and-anything-goes night is back, and we’ve found ourselves a new venue to call home!

We’re hyped to be working with MUGSHOTS to bring back the monthly breaks, funk, house, dubstep, downtempo, electro, jungle/dnb etc etc etc sounds we love so much, and we’re also looking forward to introducing a new resident – he calls himself some.soul …appropriately for the night, no one’s ever heard of him, but he’s looking forward to trying a few things out with Soulselecta, and he’ll be a great fit!

hosted by:
Saxon
