Yes yes, Adam Re:Creation has kindly asked me to play alongside him next month at the mighty Elysian Project in London. We’ll be spinning on a fat psybreaks and psydnb/neurofunk type tip, though I suspect we may hop around the genres more than that 
The night offers three rooms with a hugely diverse range of music from both live acts and DJs… click on the flyer to see it full-size.
Sign up on the Facebook event page. If you want any more details, full line-ups etc you can get them on the Elysian Project site.
Note that early bird tickets are available at £7.50 for a few more days. It’s £10 on the door, which is pretty fantastic for an all-nighter!
Hope to see you there

Bit of gig news for you. This Saturday you can catch Quextal on another visit to the hallowed halls of The Hobbit in Southampton for Psychedelic Saturday. Not exactly sure what genre(s) I’ll be playing yet, but it’s a fairly safe bet that psybreaks will be in there prominently… nor am I sure what time I’m on, but I advise getting down early anyway because it’s free entry before 10pm!
The other little bit of gig news is that I’ve been booked to play at this year’s Glade Festival. I’ll be in the PsyMusic tent, which was consistently one of the best stages last year and I understand is going to be larger this year. Having been to almost every Glade as a punter, I’m vibrating with excitement at the chance to spin some tunes there – thanks to the PsyMusic crew for making it happen, and I hope to see loads of you there

Hugs to everyone I met at this year’s superb Waveform Festival. I’ve been to all three of them and this one was undoubtedly my favourite so far, thanks to all the lovely people. Also unexpectedly scored my debut festival set on Sunday evening in the little orange tent. Unfortunately I couldn’t actually see the dancefloor from the booth but I’m told it went down well
So, if you’re visiting this site for the first time having received a limited edition Mk2 business card, welcome, and hope you can tune in tonight to Psymusic Radio from 7pm (UK time) – please come and make yourself known in the shoutbox during the show (you need to register for the forum if you aren’t on there already).

EDIT: Added another gig on the 28th!
First up, I’m on the bill for the next Psychedelic Saturday at The Hobbit in Southampton on Sat 13th June. Now, whether I’m actually playing or not currently depends on getting a babysitter, so it’s not definite yet but hopefully… Anyone who’s been to one of these before knows it’s one of the Hobbit’s most popular and out-there parties so even if I don’t make it, don’t miss it!
I’m once again covering for Ali Rutt on The Mobius Trip on NSBRadio next Mon 15th June from 7pm UK time, spinning the cream of the crop of new releases and scorchio promos from the world of psy-tech-electro-breaks.
The following week, Mon 22nd June I’m doing an extra Void Radio slot over on Brap FM from 8pm. You know what to expect by now… the unexpected!
On Sun 28th June I’ll be playing a downtempo and chillout set for a change at That Chilled Night @ Ad Hoc, High St, Southampton. The evening runs from 3pm to 1am and promises to be a great chilled wind-down to the weekend, and it’s only a quid before 9pm so get down early!
Finally, on Sat 4th July I’m back at The Hobbit for the next Void vs Brap all-dayer in aid of Oxfam. It runs 1pm to 1am and I’m playing back2back with the aforementioned Mr Rutt, alongside sackloads of quality DJ talent playing everything from dubstep to dnb, house to techno. Void parties always rock so put it in your diary now!

Well a month has gone by since the last show, which feels like ages so I’m raring to go for tomorrow’s installment of Void Radio on http://brap.fm from 8pm UK time. It’s almost my birthday so I’ll be having a few beers and spinning some classic house/trance/techno alongside the absolute cream of the month’s new releases in epic breaks and chunky progtech. I do hope you can join in the celebration

While I’m here, a quick heads up about some gigs of interest in the Southampton area. First up on Saturday 13th June that bastion of fluorescent hedonism PSYCHEDELIC SATURDAY returns to the Hobbit. I will hopefully be playing, dependent on babysitter so TBC….
I am however definitely on the bill for the latest installment of the now legendary VOID VS BRAP charity alldayers in aid of Oxfam, on Sat 4th July and also at The Hobbit. Loads of great DJs lined up for this (check the flyers here) and these parties are always off the hook so save that date, more details to follow.
Hopefully see you in the chatroom tomorrow!

This coming Friday, 6th March, you can catch me playing at an excellent night in Bristol called WaxOnWaxOff, which takes place at a great little venue called Chesters on Frogmore Street. I had a wicked time at the last WO:WO (just as a punter) so I’m reallly looking forward to this one.
The music policy is a heady mixture of fat breaks and twisty psytrance, so of course I’ll be concentrating on psybreaks
Shimon (RAM/FingerLickin) is headlining, with support from Dexter Styles, Mishima and Tethis. It runs 10pm-4am and admission is only £2 b4 11, £4 after.
Hope to see you there

If you’re in the Southampton area get yourselves down to The Hobbit on Saturday 31st January where I’m playing at a night called Psychedelic Saturday. All psy-styles are represented from the 60s to now, but with an emphasis on the more modern and danceable stuff I’ll be playing…well…the psy edge of what I normally play, ie psy-breaks, psy-trance, psy-techno, psy-wonk, psy-dnb… you get the picture… should be an awesome party Music runs 8pm – 1am, it’s free entry before 10pm, £2 after, and the bar stays open until 3. See you there!
