DJ FRESH

Dan Stein began his musical mission back in 1998 he fronted the hit drum and bass collective, 'Bad Company'. The first release ‘The Nine’ was voted ‘Best track of all time’ by 130,000 members of Drum and Bass arena. Timeout magazine call him an 'uberproducer'; Knowledge voted him best producer in the world two years running; DJ Magazine have said his label Breakbeat Kaos is a 'sonic juggernaut'; and his website dogsonacid.com has for the last two years been the highest ranking music message board on bigboards.com. According to Mixmag 'It is almost impossible to go for thirty minutes on a drum and bass dance floor without hearing a DJ Fresh production'.
If you don't already know: get to know. November 18th at World Headquarters.
WARRIOR ONE
http://myspace.com/warrioronemusic
Having recently topped the Juno singles download chart with 'Lord of Bashy', Warrior One's Carl Faure and Eoin Bradshaw have quickly emerged as a beacon for UK Funky and Tropical. After gaining underground notoriety as DJs in their respective strongholds of Brighton and Dublin, the two joined forces in East London early last year to start work on a project that was to propel them to the forefront of the UK's current revolution in future bass music. Catch them before they explode...
JAYOU
http://myspace.com/jayoudrops
James Martin, better known as Jayou, started raising eyebrows 18 months ago after drip-feeding the blogging community with a series of bass-heavy dubstep remixes, which culminated in a massive collaboration with Mad Decent head honcho, Diplo, and their remix of The Partysquad's, 'Murderer'. Since then, Jayou has gone on to raise roofs decimating dancefloors from Manchester to Serbia, with DJ sets which never fail to leave the bassbins shattered.
WAX LYRICAL
http://www.ustream.tv/channel/waxlyrical
Local partyboys Mister 60 and Dry Bones passed us a mixtape last month which saw our jaws to drop, and our something-else rise... So, despite the already jam-packed bill, we had no choice but to get these guys in to mix some records live. Expect the freshest Garage-infused beats from start to finish.
GIANT SEKOYA
(Inertia Recordings) - http://www.myspace.com/inertiaWHQ
Another month spent in the lab producing new sounds, another month spent behind the turntables preparing how to unleash them: residents Sully and Tim Shaw return to WHQ with another collaborative set packed full of re-edits, rare bootlegs and new productions. No genre goes untouched. As always, check this month's podcast at the link below for an idea of what to expect.
