we most humbly entreat your kind attention
for we are proud as punch to announce
A VERY VERY WRONG WAREHOUSE PARTY
to infuse gentle Ibizian air throughout
the uncivilised and rorting corners of London... (not recommended for those of a nervous disposition)
A warehouse? Well, how long could you expect
Tim Sheridan's manic party
veryverywrongindeed to remain locked down in clubs? It started as a free beach party in
Ibiza, once known as
nastydirtysexmusic and part of Tim's longstanding mischievous desire to doing everything under the cultural radar.
VVWI has been at
Ministry and
Turnmills - once both on the same night - and it's well-known as the club that turned Ministry around when it was terminally uncool. It's toured
DC10, Dublin, Montreal, Basel, more free beach parties, and at one point ran simultaneously across
London, Leeds, Bristol and
Brighton. It's even inspired a new label of "
afterhours music", veryverywrongindeed recordings - too lo-fi for the minimalists but too late-night for the mainstream, and described by
IDJ as "
really freaky $$$$".
As
Metro put it,
"VVWI's ethics and twisted take on techno has inspired a younger generation to reinvigorate acid house's renegade spirit". And as
Danny Tenaglia said,
"It was only yesterday I did 3 back to back interviews for the UK re Ibiza and someone asked me who made the most impact on me - and I said Tim Sheridan". VVWI WAREHOUSE 1 DEC 07

On a Break
ITALOBOYZ (MOTHERSHIP / TREIBSTOFF)
It was
Ricardo Villalobos who really propelled the
Italoboyz into the stratosphere by pushing their track
Viktor Cassanova at every gig. Now world-famous as
"the opera-singer track", it was picked up to launch
Claude vonStroke's new, deeper label
"Mothership Records", and is now championed not only by vonStroke but
Loco Dice, Sven Vath[b] and [b]Luciano, helped along by a remix by man of the moment
Samin. But they've also been releasing on
Gumption, Einmaleins Musik and
Safari Electronique - a fusion of minimalism, hi-tech funk, live and new sounds, resonant with the acid-house approach of the past but also with an eye to the seductiveness of the new...
ANDRE CROM (SENDER / LIEBE*DETAIL)
One of the fastest-rising of all German producers,
Andre Crom's first track
"Notaufnahme", with
Tigerskin on
Liebe*Detail, was a sensation - played by
Magda, Troy Pierce, Roman Flügel, Steve Bug and
Luciano - and followed up with equally well-recieved EPs on key labels such as
Ellen Alien's Memo, Sender, Veryverywrongindeed and
Leftroom. His first UK gigs were earlier this year at afterparties like
Retox and
Redlight, and
Dec 1 will be the first time the Saturday night London crowd will get to see his
"disco minimal" brand of afterhours craziness.
DUB KULT (RAUM / TRAUM / CURLE)
He's the biggest UK DJ you've never heard of. His records and his label, Living, get props from everyone from
Bug to
Villalobos to
Weatherall to
Vath. He’s been remixed by
Guido Schneider and remixed
Efendin, and been in Groove’s top 10 techno releases of the year as early as 2003. He's released on
Warp's offshoot
Arcola, German labels
Traum and
Raum</b>...[b]Musik, Belgium’s Curle and has a track coming on the UK’s
veryverywrongindeed and a remix of
Petar Dundov due out soon on
Music Man. He did the soundtrack for Channel 4's upcoming
Burning Man film, the
Tomorrow's World Live show and he’s played more gigs in Europe than he is ever likely to do in the UK ...
AND OUR RINGMASTER TIM SHERIDAN....
He's been doing it for 22 years. Part of the
Utah Saints tour, a founder of
KISS FM in the north, a resident at the ill-fated Home, the man who bought new music to Ibiza by taking over the backroom of
Manumission to bring out new sounds like
Ewan Pearson, and who made Ministry cool by landing his night
nastydirtysexmusic in their main room, and who even helped launch parties like
Secretsundaze and
Mulletover as early guests at both nights. This year, meanwhile, Tim has been working on three projects - his new record label
veryverywrongindeed recordings, his documentary about the real Ibiza, with the first interviews with people previously unavailable such as
Mike and
Claire Manumission and the
bongo-playing cave-party hippies, and of course his movie script in development...
