Jamm Rocks Launch Party – 27 May 2011
On Friday 27th May, Brixtons Jamm will host the launch party for a new night focused on the dance floor featuring both live artists and DJs, aptly named…Jamm Rocks. None other than Tom Middleton will headline an all star cast in what will prove to be an event that will blur boundaries, cross genres and fundamentally offer some of the best music and performance around.
The amazing Tom Middleton has been drafted in to set the venue alight as he allows those attending the chance to marvel at a DJ who goes beyond convention. He takes on every gig, production or project with unparalleled research and detail, delivering a unique and unflustered performance that will whip the Jamm dance floor into a frenzy, while showcasing his true musical knowledge and technical ability.
This is no ordinary DJ, a classically trained musician from Cornwall, he has a deep understanding of music in its entirety. His achievements are extensive and ongoing. DJing across the globe has seen him perform to crowds as large as 150,000, he has produced on his own as well as collaborating with others under pseudonyms such as Jedi Knights and Global Communications, he has founded labels Evolution, Universal Language, Heard and E3, performed over 50 improvised shows with band The Bays and has had the opportunity to remix a variety of artists including Kerri Chandler, Prince, Royksopp and Coldplay. With Jamm such an intimate venue containing a great sound system, this will be the perfect opportunity to witness this DJ up close and personal.
Not content to stop there, the incredible line up continues with Retro/Grade, Cassette Jam, Spycatcher Live and Steep all looking to tear a big fat hole in the venue sound system. Retro/Grade (Tom Neville & Serge Santiago) produce a synth laden disco house sound that has gathered incredible support for clubbers, critics and their peers alike and this night will be no different. Cassette Jam and Steep will be on hand to provide some serious rocking dance music from behind the decks, while there will be an energetic live performance from one of the most talked about indie bands, Spycatcher. This is a great chance to see the band before they embark on a summer of festivals including recent confirmation of their appearance at Reading.
Jamm Rocks will also be presented in 3D! With every person being issued 3D glasses on entry, the venue will feature projectors, imagery and animation. Another addition that will take the party to the next level as Jamm Rocks sets its stall in becoming one of the most exciting, forward thinking and foundation shaking events to hit London for a long time.
