ANDY WHITBY, UK – www.andywhitby.com | AWsum
Andy Whitby is not just a Hard House DJ, he is an experience. He is a state of mind. He is the transporter of minds and souls to an amazing frantic paradise that, while leaving you knackered, strangely also leaves you feeling re-invigorated.
6ft tall and broad-shouldered, with his trademark shaved head, a chunky ostentatious chain around his neck, and immaculate dress sense, he makes an imposing figure who commands respect. His confident appearance is matched by his masterful control of a good mixing desk.
To watch Andy DJ is part of the Whitby experience. Cocky? Perhaps, but certainly not arrogant, Whitby is in control of the minds and bodies of his audience. A very precise and confident body language gives a visual indication to what he is playing as he acts out each track. His precision mixing at incalculable speeds is part of the show; as each track mixes in you can positively feel the dance-floor going up a notch to keep up with the frantic and energetic DJ that has them all by the balls. Andy’s blend of vocal uplifting bouncy house is like him: deliciously hard, yet very accessible and for the time he is performing, the space right in front of the DJ decks is hotly contested floor space.
Andy Whitby is the standard that so many more strive for. There are a plethora of CD compilations that he has mixed but listening to one of these is like trying to view a fine piece of art in a darkened room. You need to see him live to really appreciate the full and overwhelming experience that is The Saviour of Hard-Dance.
You can generally tell if an event is going to be credible and worth the money if you see Andy Whitby’s name heading the DJ line-up. It’s almost like seeing a quality assurance seal, royal crest or five star rating, so don’t miss out as Twisted brings you one of the most sought-after performers in Hard Dance music for a special intimate and interactive set!
KIDD KAOS, UK – www.kiddkaos.co.uk | Trancefuzion | K405
Age 20, Kidd Kaos is a breakthrough hard dance producer and DJ. Kaos started writing tunes eight years ago and has since made music his career. Currently he is managing the Trancefuzion Collective record label with cofounder Joe-E, DJ’ing in some of the UK’s finest clubs and dance festivals, and studying at university for a degree in Creative Music, making for a very hectic schedule.
Kidd Kaos brings a ‘can-do’ and dynamic approach to the production table. This enables him to achieve powerfully diverse results. He has a contagious enthusiasm, combined with the ability to accelerate creativity in the studio - one of the elements that truly sets young Kaos’s co-productions apart. His tunes have an intelligent and modern edge, bringing new energy and excitement into the Dance arena.
2008 saw Kaos working closely with Alex Kidd and the Goodgreef team resulting in gigs at some of the leading clubs and major events in and around the UK including Ministry of Sound, Kiddstock, Wildstyles, Storm, Hardcore Heaven, Evolution, Concept, Trancefusion, After-Dark, and Premonition.
Many of the leading names in the industry are supporting Kaos’s music, among them Radio 1’s Kutski, Yoji Biomehanika, Remo-Con, ASYS, Bas & Ram, and DJ Choose. Releases like the Bass Lovers EP and the Kiddstock Theme produced with Alex Kidd were anthems of 2008 and with a slew of new projects in the pipeline, 2009 is set to be a very good year for this rising star. Get ready because this Kidd will leave Vancouver’s dance floor in a state that can be described with only one word: Kaos!
