This Friday 9th November, The Gallery is very proud to present the 3 men that collectively parade as X Press 2. Ashley Beedle, Diesel & Rocky have risen to prominence as cutting edge producers, crossing over with collaborations with the likes of David Byrne from Talking Heads whilst also producing seminal albums that include Muzikizum and Makeshift Feelgood including such massive singles as Lazy, ACDC, Smoke Machine and Muzik Express to name but a few. These gentlemen have not only set new standards in the studio but broken the mould with DJing. All appearing behind a plethora of CDJ’s and Mixers, the legendary 3 person, 6 decks, 3 mixer X Press 2 sets have become something of a hugely anticipated treat for clubland who know a good thing when they hear it. Turnmills watch out, X Press 2 will be making a special guest appearance for 3, yes count ‘em, 3 Hours this week!

 

As if it couldn’t get any better we have only gone and invited Gallery favourite and First Lady of Faithless, the ever welcome Sister Bliss. There is little more that can be written and said about her, a true DJ’s DJ and a music purist she will set the tone for the evenings proceedings in her enviable and energetic style for sure. Steve Porter is another highly revered DJ/producer who continually sets the pace others try and follow. A believer in forging his own style, his Porterhouse genre has seen him mix two compilations under the same name and over the last six years, Steve has amassed a portfolio of over 70 singles and 28 remixes under his name and the many aliases. His myriad of tracks have been finding there way into the record boxes of all the big guns - Sasha, Lee Burridge, Derrick Carter, Carl Cox, Sander Kleinenberg, Mark Farina and Paul van Dyk. Riven gets the warm up set early doors and as usual is guaranteed to rise to the occasion whist rising producer, Frase is handed another end of night musical extravaganza to conduct.

 

Over in T2 Dirtbox welcome another leading name to headline in the form of Outmode. To coincide with their forthcoming album, Outmode are quickly developing a live show which will be on full display for the Dirtbox faithful and the debut single 'True' has become Radio 1s One For One music’s unsigned competition winner and has already gained support from DJ heavyweights such as Groove Armada, Pete Tong, Nic Fanciulli, John Digweed and Hernan Cattaneo to name but a few. Recently invited onto the Trophy Twins Radio 1 show they will be bringing their talent to T2 and we suggest that based on the evidence its an open and shut case of attendance being required!

 

Backing him up will be Dirtbox’s lovable resident DJs Alex Collings and Pete Whitehouse, with Jamie Wadman and Tim Priestley getting their chance to show The Gallery how to ‘ave it right off!’ Meanwhile, Vaccine return in T3 to showcase emerging trance talent as it has on a regular and successful basis for quite some time now and this month hands over the headline position to a man who has far outgrown the title of an emerging talent. John OO Fleming is quite simply one of trances biggest DJs, a true legend of the scene and a purveyor of some of the best, most underground music out there he is a natural choice to headline one of the few parties per year where Vaccine looks UK wide. John will be bringing some of the JOOF to T3 (that’s John’s label if you didn’t know!) and joining him will be a UK debut for Ferry Corsten’s latest signing Rafael Frost as well as resident The Viceroy and sets for emerging talents Simon Pitt, Lee Dearn and Mark Landragin.
