Ninjury continue to surprise us musically!

Whenever we hear there is something new coming from Ninjury, we are always surprised by the results. The duo’s combined creative and technical talents with their diverse musical knowledge always brings something fresh to the table. Whether it be a techy, house classic, re-worked in Ninjury style or a jazzy, swing track brought into the 21st century.

This time around, we have two tracks to share. First, a “refix” of 187 Lockdown’s, “Gunman”. Hitting number 16 in the UK charts back in 1997, the original was a classic within the UK speed garage scene. Adding their own blend of bass, not trying to re-invent a classic but bring it to the forefront of underground music once again. If you like it, it’s a free download too!

Next from the duo, comes their remix of ”Home” by Kai & Kyle feat. Ashley Jana. With an uplifting tech-house vibe, simple but stunning vocals from Ashley Jana and Ninjury’s distinctive after-touch provides for an absolute cracker of a track. Available now on Beatport, with support from Capital FM and Kiss FM, this is one release that will be hugely popular in DJs libraries across the globe.

As the title says, Ninjury continue to surprise us. It’s not their ability that does so, we KNOW full well how talented and passionate the duo is about the music. It’s their variety, flexibility and ability to maintain this whilst keeping a unique, identifiable vibe within each track, whether it be a remix, bootleg, original production or a live performance. DMM has always and will always be behind the duo, we expect big things from them in the future. We cannot wait to seem them live at The Parklife Weekender, on June 8th / 9th at Heaton Park, Manchester as they were incredible at the Warehouse Project and Sankeys in recent times.

Digital Wax – Jon Rundell Smashed It

As the august bank holiday weekend commonly goes in Manchester, the weather was unfortunately very wet and pretty miserable! But seeing as we haven’t had a summer this year, and since the rain doesn’t faze us hard skinned Mancs, the party shall go on! With umbrellas and minimal clothing, we made our way to South, where we were greeted by the lovely Matt, chief organiser and partner in crime with fellow techno brain Sam.

First on the menu was the delicious starter; Mark Santangelo, a cheeky chappy with a spicy coating of dark tribal beats. He was warming up the room nicely and it quickly began to fill up. We had a little stomp then went outside for a cig, where we found the most amazing smoking area, complete with bar and new york style alleyway. If it was a bit hotter and less rainy, it would have been quite a trendy spot to chill in but standing underneath a generator trying to avoid the raindrops was a bit more Nono than Soho. Never the less, it was a pretty cool space.

Jon Rundell - Digital Wax @ South Nightclub - Manchester - August 2012After a little chat with Jon Rundell outside, (the full Interview will come soon), the main course was prep’d and ready to be revealed. He took his rightful place behind the decks and received a warm welcome from the crowd. Mark Santangelo had warmed up their bellies nicely but the people wanted something a little heavier! Playing “Danilo Vagorito – I Saw The Light” and “Tapesh & Maximijan – Clown (Alex Tepper Remix)”, his tunes were a great mixture of current techno, tasty tech house and some of his own well produced tracks. He’s one of those DJ’s that has his own style… And the tribal notes of the Balearic isle were ringing through all his tracks. Towards the end of his set I could hear him bringing in “Knick Knack” which is a song that I have incredible memories of and hearing it played in Manchester was just incredible. Who cares about the rain… Ibiza had just arrived and had brought the sun, sea and sand with him!

It was a fantastic night, the organization was un-fault-able (don’t know if that’s a word), the crowd were loving it and the music was dark and seductive. Everyone I spoke to had a really good evening and can’t wait for the next one! I certainly had a good time… As the prayer dance doesn’t come out for just anybody!

Jess - The Prayer DanceDigital Wax will be returning to South on Novemeber 23rd… Keep tuned for the special guest announcement and further juicy details…

Just have to say a huge thank you to Matt and Sam for starting a terrific night. Hopefully the masses will realise how good the music is, the crowd of music enthusiasts and general party-goers at the gig seemed to love it and the DMM team had a great night. Another huge thank you to Jon Rundell for taking the time to chat to us outside, an honor meeting such a legend, humble and down to Earth but then smashed the tunes out as if he was playing a packed out Space. Check out Jon’s latest track released on Intec Digital, Revival.

Another HUGE thanks to Chantelle and Lauren for the photos, we’ll upload more at the weekend, bit of a technical issue at the moment :)

Sven Vath Set Download @ Cocoon Heroes 4th July 2011


Sven Vath Music Download

Sven Vath Music Download

The team at Dance Music Manchester have found another quality set for you to download from the Techno legend that is Sven Vath, this time from Cocoon Heroes in Amnesia Ibiza.

Sven Väth (born 26 October 1964, Obertshausen, Germany) is a Frankfurt based DJ who has produced an extensive range of work since his career began in 1982. From 1985, he was part of the band OFF (acronym for Organization for Fun) which released the hit “Electrica Salsa” in 1986. He was also one of the founders of trance music labels Harthouse and the now-defunct Eye Q,[1] as well as being among the first DJs to play trance records. In 1995 Mixmag rated his album Accident in Paradise one of the top-50 dance albums of all time; although the title track is a fast techno piece, the rest is far more sedate, such as the track “Coda,” which features merely a flute and a harpsichord.
Väth is also known as “RU Ready” and “Sam Vision”. He has been a member of the groups 16 Bit, Astral Pilot, Barbarella, the Essence of Nature, Metal Master, Metal Masters, Mosaic, and Off. Today he is the owner of the Cocoon Music Event GmbH, which contains his Label, Cocoon Recordings. He is also a shareholder of the Cocoon Club in Frankfurt.
