It's not an underhanded tactic to omit the 'dj set' part on the poster but I'm sure you know fine well what effect it has. I.e. people turning up to see a live show.
.
Last thing I say on it. It has no effect whatsoever because the live show is only being introduced as of next month.. If people haven't done their research and came specifically to see a live set then we're sorry, but I bet they'll have an awesome time regardless. There never was any issue of billing it as a 'dj set' or a 'live set'.
Thanks for the comments though guys, we have taken them on board. Any publicity on aberdeen-music is always good and we hope some of you will make it down and even consider coming to other Hush Hush events.
Back on topic now please...
Iain.

most electronic producers only do dj sets and this doesn't have to be specified for club night bookings like this one. agencies are very specific as to the billing of artists in such cases, and as he only recently established his live show (far after we'd booked him, and which doesn't even start touring until next month) there is no need to detail whether its with live vocals or not. if you want to check other posters and flyers billing of him over the last few months then go right ahead. if you don't come because you dont want to see a dj set thats fine, but i doubt you'll get to see a performance by him in Aberdeen again. we are charging 7 for this, which is stupidly cheap in the first place and will probably only just cover our outgoing costs.

yo
it is a dj set yes. he only starts doing live shows (on tour) as of next month. and i very much doubt he'll be coming to aberdeen to perform a live show. when we booked him it wasnt even an option, hence why it is "unclear" in the poster...

JAMES BLAKE
(Mount Kimbie/R&S)
Djamba & Giles Walker
29th Jan
Origin, Aberdeen
7 Adv, tickets online here TicketWeb
Tickets also available in One Up soon.
Impressing everyone from the dubstep hardcore, the indie fraternity, to the Guardian and Pitchfork; James Blakes pitch bent, warped and sometimes elegant take on the post dubstep landscape cannot be overstated. His collaborations and live shows with Mount Kimbie recently blew critics and listeners away and even with the modest number of solo releases he has under his belt, James has established his place in UK hardcore continuum history.
Listen to his take on 'Limit To Your Love' and see what all the hype is really about;

Hush Hush presents....
Jamie XX (The XX - Mercury Music Prize winners!)
(Young Turks/XL/Numbers)
Djamba, Point To C & Giles Walker
Hush Hush is proud to present what looks to be one of our biggest ever parties!
The XX have reached astronomical heights of stardom after picking up the Mercury Music Prize last year and their debut album 'XX' - melding dark emotive 80s guitar sounds with the high-end sheen of American R&B - received critical acclaim worldwide.
Jamie XX, beatsmith for the XX, joins us for a DJ set. A prolific DJ and producer in his own right having just completed a remix album for Gil Scott-Heron, remixes for Adele, FaltyDL, Jack Penat, Florence & The Machine and Nosaj Thing plus a forthcoming EP on Numbers to boot, this guy is one of the most promising musical talents to emerge from the UK. His DJ sets range from house to dubstep, grime to garage, hip hop to funky - taking in all the sounds we love at Hush Hush.

ticket sales are very healthy, so grab a ticket from one up or online before just to be safe.
we'll be keeping 100 tickets for the door anyway but James Blake has blown up waaaay more than we'd ever thought when we booked him so it could be a mad scramble for them... 7 is a total bargain guys!

YouTube - Mike Koglin - Find Me feat. Tania Laila (Khaomeha Dub) [Tune Of The Week] ASOT 397
i'd like to hear this please. or just any other dub that you're going to be playing.
-
Yeah, it's not really the same sort of Dubstep djs who play James Blake anyway, Can't imagine Borgore or High Rankin dropping him in a set for example.
.
Actually magnetic man mix out of high rankin into CMYK on their essential mix. So there!
-
Can't really see that happening considering every major player and not so major player in the dubstep scene is playing his stuff and raving about him.
-
Wow, i think this is the first time anyone has replied to a hush hush thread on here, or indeed on this forum. Safe to say it's gonna be a big one then...

Hush Hush
COOLY G
(Hyperdub)
Djamba & Giles Walker
Hush Hush returns once again, this time with one of the hottest UK Funky, House & Dubstep producers around - Cooly G. A semi-pro female footballer and producer and DJ from Brixton South London, describes her sound as having a "deep house tribal dubstep vibe," and you can see why - Cooly G's productions exist in their own hinterland - abstract post-garage beats that slowly shuffle into life, dubbed out, with her own cut up vocal snippets singing painterly half phrases. As the second female producer on Kode 9's Hyperdub label, she has won single of the week in the Guardian newspaper, One to Watch in the Independent newspaper and has been snapped up for remixes by all the majors and has a busy DJ schedule booked out across the globe.
Hush Hush presidents Giles Walker & Djamba on support.
