Oxjam reminder: Sunday 25th May from 1pm!

Don’t forget… n e x t w e e k e n d Bank Holiday Sunday 25th May 2008 everyone within a hundred miles of Southampton is instructed to converge on The Hobbit pub in that town at precisely 1pm (don’t be late or you’ll miss my set!) for 12 hours of massive musical mayhem and good times galore.

I’ve been given the honour of starting the proceedings, 1-2 in the afternoon. There will be barbecue there with good food, so no need to have lunch before you come down. You should obviously expect to be dancing for the whole of my set 8-), but then you’ll have worked up a proper appetite and you’ll appreciate that nice charred burger all the more.

And of course, it’s all for a good cause: Everyone involved in putting on the party is giving their services and equipment for free, so all proceeds and donations go straight to Oxfam to help those whose need is so unimaginably greater than ours. We get a really great party. They get access to fresh water, or a goat, or emergency rations, and the support of an organisation which continues to campaign for a fairer world, for the rights of the world’s poorest people to clean water, sufficient food, shelter, healthcare, knowledge… the essentials of survival that we take for granted.

Void Radio 5th May

Quextal returns to the Void Radio slot on Brap FM on Monday 5th May 2008. Boarding at 8pm (UK Time), as always I’ll be taking you on a two-hour voyage through caverns measureless to man and out into deep space, catalysed by the very finest selections of trippy tuneage this side of Ursa Minor Beta, and paying no particular regard to pigeons or their holes.

Listen Live

Do hope you can come along for the ride. If so, get yourselves in the chatroom — no need to register, just point your favourite IRC client at 72.20.48.120, channel #brap.fm, or just direct your browser to the Java client.

If you can’t make it, the show will be archived here soon afterwards… darkice willing…

Void Oxjam Alldayer @ The Hobbit 25th May

I’ll be playing alongside a baker’s dozen of the other finest southcoast DJs at this event, masterminded by those crazy folk over at Out Of The Void. The date and time for your diary is 1pm to 1am on the Bank Holiday Sunday 25th May, and it’s all for charidee, so even if you don’t care about seeing me play, come along anyway. Last year’s event was several metric shedloads of fun, and this one is shaping up to be even more awesome, if such a thing were possible.

Exactly what style of music I’ll be playing has yet to be determined… depends on the running order. But whatever it is, you can be sure it’s music for the mind, the heart and the feet, so come ready to dance…

EDIT: I’ll be on first (1pm) so I guess I’d better play something of an uplifting and progressive flavour (breaks/house/trance) rather than spooky techno. Probably.

And if you can, do join the chatroom; you need to be registered on the Brap forums to use it, so why not register now and then you’ll be all set for the show…

Two NSB Radio shows

While my good friend Ali Rutt of Mobius fame is on holiday, he’s kindly left me in charge of his show, The Mobius Trip, on NSB Radio.

The show is on every Monday from 7-9pm UK time, and I’m covering on 25th Feb and 3rd Mar.

As this is a breaks station I’ll be playing, er, breaks. More specifically, 25th Feb will feature the breaks of Now, including psybreaks, tech-breaks, acid breaks and wonky breaks. 3rd Mar is an oldskool special: I’ve been mining the vinyl to bring you a choice selection of early 1990s hardcore, rave and drum’n’bass. You know the score!
