Get ya Freak on in Bristol

10749071_316838995166234_1265009289_nSo after the success of their first summer festival back in May, which sold out in a whopping 9 days, the Shindig guys are back and this time its all getting a bit freaky for Halloween.

Having headlined their summer event we are delighted to have been invited back to party with them once again.

But this event is like nothing we have seen before. They have taken over the Old Crown Courts in Bristol, a building that has been derelict for over 30 years.

They have been allowed to host this special one off event inside this amazing venue. In the courts the judges have been replaced by DJs and the jury replaced by ravers. If that wasn’t enough to blow you mind, they are opening up the cells beneath the courts. The old Bristol Prison in basement will be your playground to explore and party till dawn.

Never before has an event like this been in a venue steeped in such history. It wont happen again and you don’t want to miss it…

Bestival 2014 | Festival Review

HTF-Logo-ResizedHit The Floor Magazines reviews Bestival

good review of our show Bestival

Dub Pistols – 4/5
Following the unbelievably moving finale of Chic and Nile Rogers which summed up the vibe of this year’s Bestival just perfectly, any artist or band whose job it was to play after had a difficult job. Not long after the disco culmination, the Big Top Tent played host to a dub/big beat band who have spent the best part of two decades at the front of the beats culture. Alongside lyricist Rodney P, the band gave the crowd something to go crazy about even though the festival was close to the finish line. With euphoric hits such as ‘Mucky Weekend’ and ‘Cyclone’ their set this weekend demonstrated to people who did not already realise, the Dub Pistols are at the forefront of underground music.

10557265_10152660010124430_5451317834565968378_nFunkdub celebrates a decade of dominance with the Dub Pistols live.

The Funkdub DJ and music promotion outfit will mark ten years of incredible music performances with a special anniversary event headlined by Dub Pistols on 25th October at Chester’s Live Rooms.
Funkdub have been DJing and hand-picking the finest live acts to enthral appreciative crowds in Chester, the North West and beyond since 2004. Founded by 3DJ and Gentleman Kush to change the region’s musical landscape, the Funkdub experience has played alongside a range of cutting edge acts, including Dreadzone, Pama International, Max Sedgely & The Shoots, Little Barrie, Craig Charles, The Beat, Coda and The Skints.
Dub Pistols have gained acclaim and notoriety in equal measure for their unique brand of hip hop, dub and ska, manifested in an unrelenting punk attitude. They are consistently considered one of the finest live acts in the UK, and are touring their sixth and latest album, Return of the Pistoleros.

The London/Brooklyn collective’s critically-acclaimed back catalogue features collaborations with Specials founder Terry Hall, reggae legends Horace Andy and Gregory Isaacs and UK rap stalwarts Rodney P and Blade. Renowned for their covers as much as their reggae-fused original tracks, Dub Pistols take classic singles, like The Specials’ “Gangsters”, The Stranglers’ “Peaches” and Blondie’s “Rapture” and make them truly their own.
Dub Pistols’ are also sought after producers, remixing tracks for acts as diverse as Ian Brown, Lily Allen, Banco De Gaia, Limp Bizkit and Korn.

Joining the band at the ten-year anniversary event will be a hand-picked range of Chester’s top DJ talent, all of whom have been instrumental to Funkdub’s success in the industry, including Planet of The Breaks (Deviant & Stet) and DJ Easy.

Of course, the Funkdub DJs themselves will also be providing support before and after the show with their trademark vinyl extravaganza.
