Blurb:

October is a shining example of a renegade artist, constantly forging his own path rather than following the pack.

His tracks bear the fruits of his musical influences, where the metallic textures of krautrock and curve-ball antics of noise rock collide with the bumping jack of the NYC, Detroit and Chicago originators. One quick search for his many online mixes will reveal wildly imaginative track selections far removed from the Beatport chart topping tracks du jour or the back-patting sycophantism rife in the modern podcast.

When he steps into the club, the same unconventional approach can be expected behind the decks as his deadly record collection gets a rough workout. At his prime in the sweaty, feverish peak of the night but equally adaptable to more hushed tones in the warm-up slot, October is a DJ in the truest sense of the word; sensitive to the crowd he plays to, uncompromising in his artistic vision, and playing vinyl only.

A recent signing to Skudge Recordings and Simple Records, DJ October has also started his new label'TANSTAAFL'. which has been widely praised by the music press, and sets the course for more of the jacking dancefloor house and techno he is known for.

Rikki Humphrey - Drawing from a wide pallet of influences as far and wide as Moodymann, Dam Funk and George Benson, new kid on the house block, 23 year old producer and DJ, Rikki is set to start turning a few heads. His sound encompasses classic house with a modern twist, taking in raw piano stabs, chunky grooves and deep jacking drums. Look out for his debut release on Say Ahh records and a tasty collaboration with Liam King.
