Djamba

I was just waiting for some pedant to point that out.

But you haven't been to the pelican (or Origin as it's now known),since it changed hands and was revamped...

Everything Else Sucks and Hush Hush presents... JACK BEATS!

So I'm guessing snafu winning Scottish nightclub of the year twice in a row went right over your head then? Fending off competition from huge capacity venues like The Arches... How can you possibly comment on the state of venues when you freely admit you haven't been clubbing "since you was a young lad"?

Is that all?

BBC - 1Xtra News - Documentaries - Not sure if anyones really interested but 1xtra did a wee documentary on scotland. Not much mention of Aberdeen, which angers me slightly - but a good listen nonetheless.

No one fancy a listen?

Anyone check out the latest Jack Beats mini-mix they did for Annie Mac on Friday? It's pretty good, i recorded it in case anyone fancies a listen - link below. http://www.mediafire.com/file/hh2ijzrbnzm/jack%20beats%20-%20annie%20mac%20minimix.mp3 Unce Unce Unce Unce.

A short 15 min mix i made just to showcase some of the stuff we play here at Everything Else Sucks. Made using good old vinyl and serato, none of this ableton nonsense.

Jack Beats at Origin soon, double fucking yas!

Anyone coming to see hostage in origin this saturday then?

i dont think its well thought of up here. Liquid, for one, has tarnished its reputation no end. but i love old house like Jiveson and Terratag. more places should play that stuff.

All the best bands and DJ's are from there anyway.

Well, to be fair, a lot of bams just listen to the "unce unce unce" stuff. Dance music is typically associated with neds, whereas guitar music is far more alternative and can draw in a much nicer demographic to a club. Think about the number of people you know listen to the unce unce variety - theyre all pikeys, arent they?

This is the new thread for discussion on house music in Aberdeen. I was asking people in general about what house music they liked best in Aberdeen right now? Personally, I'm liking a lot of vocal tracks right now. Mostly funky, but i love tracks where the snare sort of goes "baboom clak" every 2nd beat. But house music in Aberdeen sucks, I wish we had more artists and bands like Glasgow. The music scene in Aberdeen is a bit shit, wouldnt you say?

Well I like it personally. Who do you think is the best house music in aberdeen right now?

Ok, start it in there and we can talk about house music.

What a scene those guys have got going on there eh?
