SO... our next SWEB night : SEPTEMBER 21st : 5:30pm - 2am ...promises to be "A-Smashin' Time" !!
Oh yeah why's that, then ?
Well, quite simply we will be making the very most of our later closing time of 2AM by stretching and compressing the fabric of time itself at will... in order to sonically shoehorn as much homegrown underground electronic talent into a September Saturday evening that has ever been witnessed in an Exeter basement ever before... EVER !!!!
Yeah right.
Yeah, right !!! So we'll be kicking off early in order to squash time into a bunch of oblivions... line-up is confirmed as per the flyer however running order has not so make sure you turn up early with your beer-purse and shimmy-sandals in order not to miss anything!!!
We are cramming far too many highlights into one evening but anyone who has been SWEB-side before will know that is just how we roll.
We have THREE KILLER LIVE ACTS the one I HAVE to mention first is from the legendary CLATTERBOX !! Dave Kempston has released records for a number of top-tier European electro labels including Clear, Touchin' Bass, TRUST, Cheap and Frustrated Funk, and has performed his beats out live in clubs across Europe on many occasions in the past ... its been a wee while since Dave has done this however so we are very proud to announce this as a SWEB EXCLUSIVE and hopefully the beginnings of many more !! :)
Further LIVE PRESSURE comes from SKÜLT, aka Jonny, AKASiCKFoRM - a SWEB stalwart who has been enjoyed by all since his debut performance at our first night down in The Refuge! We also welcome back KICKER BALANCE - Cy smashed his first live slot at the last SWEB and we are very pleased to have him back with us again, promising completely new music we can't wait !!
Well, that's all well and good, but what about the fecking DJs ??
SAY NO MORE MATE !!
SWEB'S GOT YOU SMOTHERED !! LOL
OK, slightly more seriously though - SWEB is about the sounds of the electronic underground of the South West. We've got it completely sewn up. If you know of another night that is showcasing the very best of electronic FUNK downtempo, house, bruk-up, electro, electronica, techno, breakbeat, drum n bass, dubstep, jungle, WHATEVER - please let us know as we'll be all over it !! But if all that's your bag, our home grown DJ's NEVER dissapoint...
First up I've got to mention our resident compere and master of sillymonies MYTOPTIK aka Rich Wilkes - who as well as running his superb Ping-Discs label, does us a very good line in tipsy chatter and bass-heavy braindance, n that X
MARK DARBY, another wonderful SWEB resident needs very little introduction, suffice to say SWEB really wouldn't exist without him. Founder of Exeter's legendary Mighty Force records store back in the heavy rave days of the nineties, his record label of the same name continues to release amazing underground electronic music and you'll hear a bunch of new and unreleased nuggets within his sets for SWEB X
EASY TIGER AL - one of the SWEB founder and key-members who not only brings the SOUND (literally - it's HIS rig you'll be dancing to) but also his unique take on all things house, techno and breaks X
NANOBOT aka Mike Halloran is another SWEB regular and core member of the crew ...Plymothian bringer of the REAL ELECTRONIC FUNK. Mike also co-runs the superb NONOM electro/techno night as well as regularly featuring at COSMIC SESSIONS nights down in Plymouth X Also bringing wicked club techno breakbeat braindance vibes is Sam Gannon aka SUBVEXT - this will be his second appearance at SWEB, along side ELKA aka Lewis Tanner who provides the deep n raw dubby tech n house vibes !!!
Yep, SMOTHERED. But it aint too much - it's just all great stuff, great sound, great vibes ALL NIGHT LONG. Please come join us in the drink/dance, while we tear Father Time a new one... he's been asking for it for a while let's be honest X
