Droppin' Science w/ Chris Read - This Saturday @ Vibe Bar, 8-3!

Droppin' Science is back this May 7th & this time we've been granted a late license, so we'll be rockin' with you til 3am! Expect a block party style mix of hip-hop, funk & disco breaks & a few surprises. This time around residents Matman, Nickname & Daredevil will be joined by our special guest dj Chris Read (Music of Substance/BBE), who returns after smashing it for us back in April last year.

Chris, a collector of hip hop, funk, soul boogie and related beats and jazz based music since the late eighties came to prominence as a club DJ through his involvement in Substance (one of the UK's largest and longest running hip hop and funk nights) and his 2 year spell as mix DJ on BBC Radio 1Xtra. In recent years his steady output of high profile mix albums has allowed Chris to DJ around the globe. However, it is Chris's broad musical taste and knowledge and ability to throw the unexpected into the mis that have sealed his reputation as a popular club DJ. A resident at london's popular clubnights Classic Material & So Much Soul, Chris has recently joined acclaimed record label BBE's roster as a compiler & mix DJ.

Droppin' Science w/ KidKanevil 05.03.11

After killing it at Droppin' Science with us back last June, were happy to welcome back First Word record's Producer/Dj extraordinaire KidKanevil.

Hailing from Tokyorkshire, DJ/Producer Kidkanevil first came to prominence with the release of his critically acclaimed debut album ‘Problems & Solutions’ back in 2007, and has since gone from strength to strength. His lively dj sets often span many genres, from hip hop to reggae to dubstep to old school jungle/dnb, with plenty of lazers thrown in for good measure!

Now three albums deep, his latest LP ‘Basho Basho’ was released earlier last year to great critical acclaim, & followed up by a remixed version featuring some of the most talented producers out there today.

Kidk is also an integral part of the group 'Stateless' who's critically acclaimed album has just dropped on Ninja Tune records!

Earlier this year he also dropped a free 7-track EP titled 'freebeeatsnbleeps' - we recommend you go download that now if you haven't already, get it at kidkanevil.bandcamp.com

“By far one of the UK’s most original producers.” – Hip Hop Connection

“5/5″ – DJ magazine

“Something truly memorable.” – URB

“Hip-hop genius.” – ATM

“A sonic visionary.” – iDJ

“Basho Basho deserves to put kidkanevil right up there with Flying Lotus.” – Knowledge Magazine

“Thunderous…a vivid display of dexterous beat construction and cultural experimentation. An incredible amount of character bubbles at the surface of evey track.” – okayplayer

“Sparse constellations of lethally-sharpened drum sounds flying around the listener act as a single structure of seemingly impossible strength.” – Wire Magazine

As always your Droppin’ Science heavyweight residents Matman, Nickname & Daredevil will also be on-hand to tear up the dance!

ROC RAIDA - OFFICIAL UK BENEFIT FUNDRAISER VIDEO

Grand Master Roc Raida: 1972 - 2009

Filmed on wednesday 27th October 2009  - Hosted by Tha En4cers (UK) in association with Vibe Bar

A very well shot & edited video montage of the roc raida tribute night - I felt honoured to be a part of it and to have shared the stage with so many UK legends..

R.I.P. Raida  - My only meeting with the man was brief, at a trade show where he cut it up on the decks with my brother Dj Daredevil, for such a legendary figure it was great to discover what a humble & straight up nice guy he is - & he blessed me with a ridiculously sick mixtape drop too! I'm pretty sure the x-men video 'in x-ercise' was the first scratching video me & my brother laid our hands on - a massive inspiration. Life is way too fragile, rest in peace grandmaster.

Bonus footage!  Roc Raida & Daredevil Q & A scratching:
