Umek was once supposed to play at footwork but it got cancelled no?
I've been dying to see him live. I cant listen to his sets while doing work because i keep jamming out at my desk.
feelgood

It many ways the commercial pop sounding Guetta artists and the influx of dubstep have made it financially impossible to bring in the smaller guys because they simply won't fill the place..
I dont think its ever been financially profitable to bring alot of those guys (or the equivalent back in the day) They are what they are because they dont cater to the masses.
It is what it is... What we need is a current promoter (or new promoter?) to fill that niche to bridge the gap between the techno kids and the trance heads. Ozmosis, Platform and Activate have been doing an awesome job bringing in relatively unknown, super talented names. Their events are small intimate and successful.
But we need a promotion crew that brings in the type of proggy sounds listed above. Ive often toyed with the idea of collaborating with some people to start a promotion crew with exactly this purpose. Maybe it starts here?

Like I said, money talks. It's not that promoters are scared, they are smart. There's a big difference. Why would they spending thousands of dollars to book dj's that might pull 100 people? Unfortunately this industry doesn't run on music and talent. You should know that by now.
