About Tidy Faithful and intergalactic party people of the universe, Tidyland proudly present a new chapter in their Weekender journey. Join them on 25th, 26th and 27th April 2025 as they descend to Park Dean's Vauxhall Holiday Resort in Great Yarmouth. This is the return of the much loved Tidy Weekender, where they will be celebrating their 30th anniversary.  THE FUTURE IS OURS  For pictures & more information, please visit https://www.tidyweekender.co.uk/ DJs Eddie Halliwell / Lisa Lashes / Kutski / MARK EG / Signum / Rob Tissera / Anne Savage / Lisa pin up / Andy Farley / JX / Ben Stevens / BK / JP & Jukesy / Amber D / Ali Wilson / Jon Hemming / Discam / GENERAL BOUNCE / JOE LONGBOTTOM / lee haslam / Jon BW / Lab 4 / Matt Smallwood / Guyver / Tom Berry / Kid Dynamo / dark by design / Flash Harry / Kym Ayres / Eggman / Hayz / Bryn Whiting / Luvstruck / Miami House Party / Ian M / Jodie Rose / Drax Nelson / Leigh Green / Ben Kaye / S.H.O.K.K. / Andy Roden / Eoghan Tomas / Johnny Dangerous / JMF / Sam & Deano / Lee Pasch / Brain Bashers / Lynne Queenie / AFD / K Series / Hyperlogic / Spencer Green / Shaun M / Jas Van Houten / DJ Danny Burch / Gridlock 3000 / Paul Janes / Jon Bishop / Ingo / Riley & Durrant / Poggy / Beako / Zander Club / Smokin Bert Cooper / Paul Maddox / Benedict Brothers / The Tidy Boys / Anto startColorChanging('.dj_name', 1000); // Start changing colors every 1000ms (1 second) IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING THIS EVENT Although we are celebrating 30 years of Tidy Trax and many of you will have enjoyed the Tidy Weekenders before, this event is different to previous Weekenders so please take a minute to read this important information:  FAQ's Q. Is this the same site as Pontins? No. This site (owned by Park Dean) is a completely different place. Although it’s still a holiday park, it’s a 5 star resort with a much higher level of accommodation & facilities. This is the new home of Tidy Weekenders and the start of a new chapter. Q. What is the difference in the types of rooms?  Park Dean has a very extensive array of accommodation available. All the rooms are of a very high standard and the festival have done their best to group the rooms in (what they feel) are appropriate grades of the accommodation, however there are slight differences within these groups. The rooms are allocated on a first come, first served basis so the better grade rooms will be given to people who book early. Q. How are the rooms sold for this event?  In the past we have sold tickets to the Tidy Weekenders on a per person basis. At this event we are selling the tickets on a PER ROOM basis. It’s completely up to you how many people you bring with you, however you can only bring people up to the maximum number of beds in the room you have booked.  This means if you want to bring just two people and have space you can do (but you will pay more per person for the room) and if you fill up all the beds, it will work out cheaper per person. Q. I booked for the postponed Tidyland Wet & Wild Weekender due to take place in 2024. Can I come to this event? If you booked for the postponed 2024 event and requested a refund, you will have to book your place as normal. If you booked and retained your booking, one of our customer service team will be in touch to discuss your options for this event.

Effects (FX) are an essential part of modern DJing, adding texture, depth, and creativity to a set. Whether you’re using reverb, delay, filters, or other effects, the right use of FX can transform your performance. However, it’s important to remember that less is often more—overusing FX can clutter your sound and distract from the music itself.In this guide, we’ll explore how to use FX creatively and effectively to enhance your DJ set without overwhelming your audience. Many DJ mixers and controllers, such as the Pioneer DJM series or Denon Prime series, come equipped with a range of onboard effects, making it easier for DJs to apply and control FX seamlessly.,,The post How to Use FX in DJing Without Overdoing It appeared first on GlobalDJsGuide.View the full article

Biography Email: Liam@clubtheworld.uk Phone: 07745358810 Website: http://www.mangafish.net/liamstyles Liam has been DJing for over 7 years, and has had regular bookings for the past 3 years. Liam 1st started playing out when he was 18, in his hometown of Ballymena in Northern Ireland. He quickly built himself up a profile within the local scene and had 8 bookings in his 1st year on the circuit. A family move to Essex gave Liam the opportunity to spread his wings, and with a bit of persistance he gained work, and a weekly residency soon followed. He stayed in Essex for nearly 2 years and says it was during this time that he really got to grips with playing to a crowd. He returned to Ballymena with even more passion for the scene and went on to win a DJing competition run by Fergie and his mum (Keymix DJs). Soon after the work picked back up, and soon he was playing out every week. Music Policy Liam prides himself on having a huge passion for all kinds of music and can adapt his DJing style to fit into almost any club environment...Not because he has to, because he wants to. Be it house, techno, tech-trance or hard house, Liam's sound has a distintive filthy feel to it.

OK where to start. So I started clubbing around 2001 when a good friend I worked with took me to a Trance event in Milton Keynes. I met some really great people and found my love of the music.  Trance came first and then Hard House.  A year on I was pregnant and gave up for a while losing contact with anyone I met. Being a single mum I found it difficult to meet new people especially those with a love for the music and the bug to go out and dance. I found CTW and wrote my first post on January 25th 2003.  I was looking for like minded people and new friendships but what I found was a whole lot more. There was drama, passion, friendships and even love. I met some fantastic people through this website and have stayed friends with many of them despite us all growing up and leading our normal lives. Many of us settling down, marrying and having children. I met my first real love and many of my real friendships through this website and had some fantastic times and a whole host of memories that have lasted.  I met DJ's, Producers, visited cities and clubs I had never been to before, experienced weekenders and without CTW I never would have had all that, It was a place where you did not need local friends to go to a club with because we all met up before the events and went together. Everyone was so welcoming and real friendships were formed. My hope is that this place can be that once again, Maybe not for us old timers who for many cant go out as often as we would like but to give the new generation the same thing we all had. Organised meetups which were safe and welcoming, friendships so you didn't feel alone, romances and love. We were one big family There was also plenty of arguments, hatred, nastiness, heart break, etc.  Some of which I had a big part of but I had real friendships and some of those friendships have lasted the past 16 years. For the parts I played and I think there was plenty I am sorry Like many I was young, naive and pretty messed up in the head at the time.  At the same time I had support through some of the darkest times, No one turned their back on you and they told you if you was out of line even if you didn't want to hear it.  CTW was a safe place for me and the people I met will always hold a special place in my heart. I hope all the new people who read this can get the same experience as I had because without all of the CTW family  I would not be the person I am now.  So I was about to name everyone but there are too many to list so to all those over the years Thank you for the memories, For kicking my butt into touch, for putting up with me and for the lasting friendships ever since. Because truly you do not know what it means to me.  Now I will shut up cause I cant half talk some waffle, That certainly hasn't changed.

With help from Frantic, we at ClubTheWorld were able to catch up with man of Hard dance himself BK to ask him a few questions after his busy tour of Ireland.How have you enjoyed the Lashed UK & Ireland tour so far? What have the highlights been? Have there been any downfalls?The tour has reached all of my expectations so far. The line-ups for each party have been absolutely tremendous and the clubbers have given such a positive response whenever I played. The launch party at Heaven in London was rather impressive with the fireworks inside the club and all. I really appreciate it when a real effort has been made to put on a real show around a terrific line-up.Do you see a difference between the crowds outside of London and the ones in the capital?The clubbers who come to Lashed events throughout the country are similar, from the same age group. They're always up for it and really know how to party. But in general in London, if it's not a Lashed night, I've noticed that the crowds are usually older.At Get Lashed The Anniversary, you will be playing a techno set, what can we expect to hear from you there? Is it something you would like to do more often?Yes I'd like to do it more often. But techno is not a recent addition to my sets unlike people tend to think. Me and Andy Farley have been playing it since we started. We come from a different school than all the other hard dance Ds; at Trade we were very much influenced by the techy sound and enjoyed playing it there.Dave Angel will be headlining the techno room, what do you think of this artist?He is absolutely fantastic, he's a techno legend. I have so much respect for him and feel much honoured to play alongside him in the techno room at Lashed The Anniversary, I'm really looking forward to it.We know you're a fan of three hour sets, could you imagine playing 8 hour sets like techno DJs such as Laurent Garnier?I already played a 5 hour set at Trade once, but it wasn't planned. The DJ after me couldn't make it so I had to carry on, and I was only given 10 minutes notice! But I really enjoyed it. I thought the second half of my set was better than the first one actually because I chucked in some more alternative stuff I wouldn't have played in my set.Would you consider taking on board techno artists on your new label Riot! Recordings?Once again, techno has always been a part of what I play so I am definitely open to any good techno music for Riot!. It's becoming more and more accepted in the hard dance world which is really positive. I don't want Riot! Recordings to aspire to one specific type of music policy; I want to go outside the usual parameters and have whatever we like.Can we expect any releases from you in the near future and on Riot! Recordings?Yes I will be releasing a track I've done with Dave The Drummer in January on Riot! Recordings.You've been asked to do a monthly show every Thursday between 4-6pm on www.ministryofsound.com, how do feel about that?It's something I've always wanted to get into, so I'm really happy and excited about it. I'll be able to play tracks that sometimes I can't play in clubs, more alternative stuff and vary the genres. It opens the musical spectrum.When's the next Riot! party? What can we expect there?The next will be our big Christmas party, X-mess on 19th December 2004. Seeing the success of our last parties, I think it's going to be rammed. The line-up is rather impressive for this one: me and Ed will be playing in the main room, so will Adam from LAB4, Anne Savage and a very special secret guest. In the bar room we'll have the Sharp Boys, Tom Real, an exclusive breaks set by Anne Savage and many more.What are you doing for Xmas and what's on your Father Xmas list?I usually spend it at home with my family but this time I've paid for my mum to go and see my sister who lives in the States. So I should be celebrating it on a boat of the Thames with about 10 friends.Which DJ would you like to see dressed up as Santa at Lashed?JFK!What's your favourite Xmas carol? Who would you chose to do a remix of it?Jingle Bells remixed by The Prodigy just for the hell of it!Finally, tell us a cracker jokeWhat do you call a deer with no eyes? No eye deer.We at ClubTheWorld would like to thank Ben for taking the time to answer these few questions & to wish him well with future, many thanks
