GET LOW - BONFYAAH NIGHT SPECIAL **PLUS CHANCE TO WIN A DJ SET**


FACEBOOK EVENT HERE

This Bonfire night the Get Low Cartel are putting on an event to warm the soul and help us accept the fast approaching cold winter months ahead.

After that cheeky little carnival session with our old pal Mensah, we're returning to the world famous Dogstar in London's Brixton for a night of gully mayhem.

With three floors at our disposal we've put together a naughty lineup to fit in with the theme of the night to cater to all needs creating the perfect party vibes atmosphere and are giving YOU the chance to win a set at the event!!!! (competition details below)


THE HEATWAVE
( Soul Jazz // Hot Wuk // Rinse FM )

The go to guys for dancehall, reggae and all things FYAH, The Heatwave have steadily risen to become a beloved fixture on the UK club and festival circuit.  From 60's riddims to modern British ragga and dance, these guys know their shit. Check the amazing "England Stories" LP's released on Soul Jazz and compiled by the Heatwave themselves to get an idea of their textured and vividly iconic musical palette. You can also catch The Heatwave on RINSE FM every Sunday 1-3am.



★ QUEST ★ 

Possibly the most celebrated Dubstep producer of 2010, Quest can do no wrong at present.  Alongside Silkie and the rest of West London crew Antisocial, tracks like Summer Anthem "Smooth Skin" have exhibited his unique production style, floating between jazz, house and broken beat to create a modern Dubstep sound that has been championed by Skream, Mala, Benji B and Giles Peterson amongst others.

BEATS IN ABUNDANCE - HOSTING ROOM 2

Old school cohorts of Get Low, superb party starting outfit BIA will be hosting room 2, providing a fabulous fanfare of disco, pop and the fruitier forms of electronic music. If you haven't heard of BIA then shame on you, come and be educated in music - if you're not converted, you have no soul.


★ D-RAIL ★

A Vagabondz favourite, D-Rail never ceases to surprise. With an ability to read crowds backed up by a fiendish record collection, D-Rail hits the nail on the head with spot on precision that gets a room moving.

GET LOW 2nd BIRTHDAY BASH ft. TODDLA T, ELIJAH & SKILLIAM, GET LOW CARTEL & more!






WOW BASS

DUBSTEP / GARAGE / ELECTRONICA / FUNKY / D&B / GRIME / BMORE / ETCETERA


★★★ 2ND BIRTHDAY BASH ★★★

★★★ THURSDAY 25TH FEBRUARY ★★★

★★★ 10PM-6AM ★★★


To thank all of you lovely people for supporting Get Low the past 2 years, the Get Low Cartel are putting on an ALLNIGHTER birthday bash to remember.
We've come along way since that fateful February of 2008 and it's all been down to you, so we've put together a lineup that will remind you all what Get Low is all about.





★ TODDLA T ★
(BBC Radio 1 / 1Xtra / Machines Don't Care)

Arguably the most exciting and innovative British artist on the scene right now, we are proud to host Toddla T as our badaman 2nd Birthday Headliner. After years of making distinctive dancehall garage ragga in his native Sheffield, over the last couple of years Toddla T has become a superstar, destroying festivals and superclubs across the world with his trademark blend of Garage, Dubstep, Baile funk, Dancehall and anything else to make the girls wiggle. After releasing his debut album "Skanky Skanky" to raptourous critical acclaim and mixing a superb edition of the Fabric Live series, Toddla became part of the "In New DJ's We Trust" show at Radio 1, giving him a weekly platform to broadcast his bonkers and brilliant music to an eager public. He's worked with Herve on his progressive "Machines Don't Care" project and the legends of the scene are queuing up to bestow praise. He even had Benjamin Zephaniah feauture on "Rebel". This guy goes different.

DO NOT MISS OUT on this highly exclusive and intimate gig from T'willy. By the Summer he'll have moved onto the next level of super-producers and you'll only be able to watch him from 39 miles away on the Glastonbury pyramid stage.

★ ELIJAH AND SKILLIAM ★
(Rinse FM / Butterz)

Head honcho's of the innovative and highly entertaining blog and now record label "Butterz", Elijah and Skilliam are the hottest dj's in Grime. Displaying their awesome mixing and track selection on their weekly Rinse FM radio show, they're regarded as the "Saviours of Grime" and bring a welcome sense of humour to their operation. In a scene that can take itself far too seriously, Elijah and Skilliam strive to make their radio show, articles and label output accessible and interesting. Make sure you're in to catch them djing Grime, Grime and a bit more Grime on top.

Oh, check out their NANG '01012010' Mix.





★ ZIMBA ★
(The Brothers Grime)

One half of the London dons The Brothers Grime and extended member of the Get Low Cartel, Zimba is a mash-up specialist. We have been keen to put him on for some time and are delighted to have Zimba tear up the dance at our Birthday Bash, harnessing the powers of garage, 2-step, funky and other musical gems.

★ BEATS IN ABUNDANCE ★

Old school Norwich big dogs, back in the day BIA was the biggest student night when Get Low was just a young wee nipper. Long-time cohorts of the Get Low Cartel, in San Francisco Luke Baines and Dash would tag-team 5 hour sets at their residency on Haight Street. Beats In Abundance are back for a highly exclusive N-town performance. Perfect DJ's to provide a colourful mash-up of styles and surprises, you'll find it impossible not to have a boogle boogle with a big grin on your face.
