Biography of Sandeman & Mr Dickie

Real name / Stuart Sandeman & Scott Dickie

Sandeman & Mr Dickie are gifted with the licence to Entertain. Since the Scottish duo set up camp in the capital they have clearly marked their territory on London's party scene, building a following of trendy creatives who expect more from their nights out and want to step out of the safe zone with their music.

Party after party, Sandeman and Mr Dickie have rocked the dancefloor and upped the ante with their fresh electronic house sounds of bouncy plings, plongs, drrrrrrrrrrrrrrs, tings, whipping baselines and muffled vocals.

Initially kudos came from their weekly residency at East London's quirky Moroccan cocktail bar Casa Blue. These parties became unmissable, with the crowd attending religiously. People regularly spilled out onto the street in front of the venue at these gigs and the once unknown bar was now on the map. Right in the hub of things, Casa Blue is nestled perfectly on Brick Lane, one of East London's key cultural minefields.

Their timing at Casa Blue was perfect – East London had just begun to explode with parties taking place in basement bars, ex-restaurants, disused warehouses, car parks, rooftops, toilets and anywhere with room for decks and space to make shapes.

At a time when East London was bursting at the seams with cool, it would be easy to get lost in the tide of new talent, sunglasses and muddy plimsoles, yet Sandeman and Mr Dickie have established themselves as jewels in the crown of a booming scene. As house-fused minimal pied pipers they continue to lead a trail of musical boffins from warehouse to super club.

Rarely playing faster than 122BPM their sets see them weave seamlessly for hours through stripped down beats, deep and wonky house catching the attention of promoters across the capital leading to bookings at some of London's most prestigious venues and underground cubby holes alike including The Cross, MOS, Egg, Pacha, Public Life (Toilet Party) and many other various East end warehouses. Further afield their music has reached party people on the white isle for Carl Cox & Friends @ Space, at the Wickerman Festival - Scotland, across the pond at Miami WMC and Room Service @ Standard Downtown, LA.

So what next from the dynamic duo?.....

Currently Sandeman & Mr Dickie have their hand in all the right pies. With the introduction of the infamous Bar25 in London to Cadenza Records’ showcase xmas party. They also hold down a number of residencies at key underground music venues in the capital namely their speak easy 'Family Affair' night at Platinum in Shoreditch, their new weekly 'Presents...' concept at The Hoxton Pony which ensures headline guests every week on Thursday night’s and a residency for new uber cool warehouse party YouAreWe. Work at the loft studio in Platinum for the label Ifidota Music is well underway with their debut release ‘You’ve Been Yanked’ due in Winter 09.

All eyes are on Sandeman and Mr Dickie and with early production as cutting edge as their musical palette we eagerly await the next chapter...
