“I play regular sets for Brighton based night BeAvantGarde which is strictly Tech House and Techno and played host to Fatboy Slim, Steve Lawler and John Dimas to name a few. The last night i played 2-3am and the energy in the room was just incredible throughout my set, its a great opportunity to showcase some of my tracks and also some other tracks coming up for release on KONNEQT. The guys behind the scenes have done a great job building a great party. I’m massively looking forward to movement presents KONNEQT their previous nights have been epic and with a few surprises up my sleeve I’m certain the 13th June will be no different.“

Few heroes, various villains and a changeable cast of brands.... One thing is constant: nobody wants to cough up for music

An article in Mixmag last week finally brought to light something that most women will have experienced numerous times at a nightclub, a festival or music event - sexual harassment. Sadly I, like the majority of others, have tolerated unwanted advances from strangers and even acquaintences, not once ever considering it worthy enough to manifest. The distressing reality is that it has been happening for years and continues to do so. 

It happened to me recently at a house party and ashamedly I reacted as if it was ‘normal’ and shrugged it off with the attitude ‘I don’t want to make a fuss’ but in hindsight I should have protested and brought attention to it. A man grabbed my breasts, tried to grope my arse and continuously made lewd comments about me, why was that tolerable? when it wouldn’t if a stranger approached me in the street or a colleague behaved in the same way at work. It made me realise that for too long we have accepted harassment and the challenge is just as much about us speaking out as it is changing male behaviour and attitudes.

Mark Lawrence label manager of motion talks to us about the label, 360 deals, Movement and the future

"Saturday 21st Feb we played for Ibiza's Matt James (Money Pennies, Amnesia, El Divino) for his new “Up Close” night at the newly refurbished Thirst Bar in Soho. The concept was simple a late night party den offering the chance to get “Up Close and Personal” to some of the best DJs in London. A cool trendy little place with a fantastic party crowd that was diverse into hearing all sorts of new music. A track that we remember as people were dancing on the arm chairs at this time was - All I Want (Dosem Remix) - Umek & Mike Vale on 1605 Records. Check out the write up on Beatport if there was a random write up this would be one of them. Can’t wait to hit Brighton for our next gig with Movement and Motion Records at the Hub as we also showcase some recently signed tracks."

"Our last gig was at DBE in Loughborough with Skream, Ejeca and Artwork. The crowd were really up for it and the DBE crew have done a great job of building one of the best nights in the midlands. We dropped our new tune coming out on Deep Motion at the end of the month called ‘To The Beat’ but tune of the night had to be one of our tracks called ‘Power up’. It goes down really well wherever we play it so we’ll definitely be playing that one at Movement. It’s quite a heavy bass led track and that will be available in the summer."
