MIXTAPE PRESENTS EATDISCO WITH MINI KLAUS // FRIDAY 18TH SEPTEMBER// SNAFU
EatDisco is the collective work of DJ's and promoters Paul Patterson and Tom Storey who, prior to this assault upon club land, promoted both Ghettoblast and Wheels Instead of Hooves respectively.
The pair boast a pretty heavyweight promoter's C.V and have DJ'd across the UK, Europe and the US alongside and supporting the likes of Andy Votel/B-Music, Bogdan Raczynski, Claro Intelecto, Foals, Ghettoblast NYC Tour, Hostage, Kid Acne, Machine Drum, Rephlex Tour, Req One, Skam, Team Doyobi, Tronik Youth, U Ziq, Warp Tour etc.
Musically EatDisco are throwing everything into the pot, hunting down records through blogs and promos, bringing old and new electro to the table and in a nutshell really pushing for a fresh approach to things. Artists and labels of choice at present include the likes of BPitch, Institubes, Modular, Modeselektor, Switch and so on....but the pair agree that there's really too much music out there to be able to name anywhere near enough.

THE DEEP END PRESENTS STREETLIFE DJS ( AND HARRI
// SATURDAY 18TH JULY // SNAFU
Stewart Rowell & Louis Gaston are otherwise known as the Streetlife DJs. They have over 25 years turntablist experience between them, and a blatant disregard for music genres! OK lets explainif you think Soulwax meets Coldcut meets Sasha & Digweed youre in the right ball parkif there is such a place! There really isnt a musical boundary that the Streetlife DJs wont cross. A Streetlife set is like one big lesson in the history of dance musicin one night! Isnt that the best history lesson youre ever likely to have? DJ Magazine quoted We love these guys because they rock. The UKs very own 2ManyDJs!
Harri is synonymous with Glasgows vibrant House scene. His record breaking 20 year residency at the Sub Club was the foundation for its growth into one of the UKs premier dance venues.
In the early 90s Harri teamed up with Stuart McMillan and Orde Meikle of Slam and Soma. For four years they spun their sonic magic at the Sub Club on Saturdays. However, the departure of Slam from the Sub saw Harri join forces with one of Glasgows most talented DJs, Domenic Cappello (20/20 vision, 7th sign, Soma). Together they created Subculture, the Subs flagship Saturday night. 14 years on, Subculture with Harri and Domenic at the helm, is possibly the longest running weekly House night in the U.K. Subculture has hosted the cream of international House DJs and has a reputation as one of the best and most credible House nights in the world.
Snafu is incredibly happy to be able to have both these amazing acts perform in the club as part of our collaboration with Wizard festival. We anticipate high demand for this event, I mean, who in their right mind wouldnt come, so hop on the site and grab a ticket.
Much love.

MIXTAPE PRESENTS JAPANESE POPSTARS WITH GILES WALKER // FRIDAY 28TH AUGUST// SNAFU
Widely hailed as the act of the moment, the Japanese Popstars have been making waves on the scene. Their raw energy and excellent songcrafting has ensured that these Northern Irish (Not Japanese, lamentably) chaps are riding high. They boys are performing live at Wizard Festival during the day, but through sheer persistence we have managed to persuade them to come along to the club after and let all you lovely folk who cant make it out to Wizard see what all the fuss is about.
Heres what their myspace has to say, lest you require any further convincing:
The Japanese Popstars are an electronic act from Derry, Northern Ireland, consisting of Declan McLaughlin aka Decky Hedrock, Gary Curran, and Gareth Donoghue. They are signed to bespoke indie label, Gung-Ho Recordings (Gus Gus, Zoo Brazil) in the UK, and Beatink in Japan (home of Underworld, Aphex Twin, and Cinematic Orchestra).
Founded after a number of drunken discussions and attendance of a number of large music festivals, such as Oxegen and Glastonbury, the three musicians collaborated. Each member has his own alias. The act was nominated for "Best House DJs" at the 2006 World Urban Music Awards, "Best Live Performance" at the 2007 Northern Ireland Music Awards and won "Best Live Act" at the 2008 Irish Music Awards. They were also recently voted "Best Breakthrough Producers" at the DJ Mag Best Of British Awards 2008[citation needed], awarded "No.1 Dance Album" by Hotpress magazine, and won "Best Live Act" and "Best Album" at the 2009 Irish Music Awards.

Doors 11-3
Master H returns to Snafu direct from Paris, to take you on a journey
through deep house, techno, deep tech, minimal and classics with an
underground, futuristic Parisian swagger.
Master Hs discography lists a whos who of influential supporters
with his tracks appearing on luminous labels such as Soma, FCOM, Vega,
Qalomota and Urbantorque, and with fans, friends and collaborators
among Laurent Garnier, Louie Vega and Funk DVoid; the mark of quality
is stamped on his achievements.
Having entered the DJ arena at 16 he's gone on to produce and record a
must have album - 13 - hailed by DJ Mag as "one of the best, most
danceable disco infused, soul inspired, jazz tinged, funk fueled
albums of this century".
Since then he's built his own studio deep in the heart of Paris, from
which he created a new label to showcase the fruit of his labour and
distribute the sound he believes in thus Komplex De Deep was born in
September 2008 to critical acclaim with the debut release,
Melody (produced with Francois Dubois) credited Record of the
Month in iDJ Magazine and appearing at no. 1 in a DJ Mag chart.
Master H as held residencies at many an institution around the globe,
as well as DJing at Stuart from Slam's wedding reception, and playing
with the likes of Carl Cox, Roger Sanchez, Kerri Chandler and Louie
Vega, as well as fashion soirees for the likes of Paul Smith and
Versace in Paris and New York. Spinning at one of those parties, he
found himself DJing to the French godfather of house and techno
Laurent Garnier. Garnier invited Master-H to his private millennium
party where they played disco records back to back all night long.
The diversity of his productions, from deep house to banging dance
floor are a perfect reflection of his amazing ability to express
himself behind the decks. He has the flexibility to spin for
trainspotters right through to more mainstream crowds, in small clubs
or for massive dance floors, without compromising his musical integrity.

Doors 11-3
Since the start of 90s, Former East Londoner now Norfolk based Mark Broom has always been a name that is synonymous with the UK electronic music scene. A truly prolific artist, he has a myriad of production credits to his name having worked with world renowned labels such as Mo-Wax, Warp, R&S, Soma, Ifach (with Baby Ford ) Bpitch Control, Platzhirsch,Rotary Cocktail, Material and more recently 2020 vision.
It all started in the summer of 89 when he landed in Tenerife on vacation and stumbled across the delights of the emerging sounds of Chicago & Acid House. Returning to the UK, he immediately went in search of this new found music a pair of turntables were bought and with it, a musical career was born. A regular customer at Londons Fatcat record store, Mark found himself at the epicenter of a burgeoning scene. In 92, a certain Pete Baby Ford was on the scout for Djs to play at his new Club Night, Nude. When a mix tape was put directly in to his hands, Marks turntable skills were soon in demand.
Marks services as a Dj and re-mixer have been in high demand over the past two decades having played around the globe at some of the worlds best clubs: from Fuse to Fabric, to La real and Florida 135 and, he has also had the pleasure of reworking material from artists such as Steve Rachmad, Ken Ishi, The Advent, Eddie Flashin Fowlkes, Ben Sims and more recently Mason on Great stuff.
Mark has been in over-drive lately, with a string of new remixes under his belt and a cheeky EP on the horizon. His style is pure Edit Select, Mark constantly pushes the limits of techno and mashes it all together with the style and flair of a person that without a doubt knows his craft inside and out.
Snafu is mega excited to have Mark Broom gracing our decks, and we hope you lot are too. Just hope youre not working Saturday

He started Djing at around the tender age of 15, running two under-18 clubs himself a perfect start to his career. Knowing his vocation to music from an early age after being brought up by his professional pianist mother, Lars never had any doubt as to where his future would lie... which is good for us, because it means we have a top quality booking for you dance hungry folks a couple years down the line.
Much in demand DJ and critically acclaimed producer, his Djing style is everything you expect a true music lovers taste to be: he is comfortable and adept at moving any dancefloor, the proof being that he is one of the busiest Djs on the circuit today, and has been for the last decade.
