Death Disco presents...The Mixmag Tour 2011 in association with Moda & Don't Stay In

It's just not fair, as if Naive's Xmas blow out with A Trak, Cassius & Busy P wasn't enough this Friday we also have Mixmag's annual tour to contend with the following night. I guess sometimes you just have to accept mild bankruptcy during the festive season, after all, what else are you going to spend your money on?

This year Death Disco have teamed up with Mixmag & Moda to bring you a downright dangerous line up consisting of some of the hottest name's in house, electro & certified bashment. For the Glasgow leg of the tour you can expect earthquake inducing wobble from Jack Beats, super-sexy French house from Parisian trendsetter Surkin as well as the trademark electro bounce from rising stars Jaymo & Andy George.


The party starts in Lincoln

Jaymo & Andy have of course enjoyed a meteoric rise to fame over the past few years with their In New DJ's We Trust show on Radio 1 cramming the finest disco, house & techno into a super-charged hour of highly entertaining, nonsensical chat & quick fire mixing. Their own label Moda has also been responsible for the output of such dancefloor rendering artists as Tom Staar, His Majesty Andre & Foamo - unwavering quality in other words. Here's what they had to say about the tour:

Jaymo: "New music is the driving force behind everything we do, whether it's our radio show, our DJ sets or the parties we put on. We try and champion new music from as many platforms as possible, this tour is now one of them! But as with anything, it's not just about the here and now - a true music fan wants to know about the history, the classics, the heritage. So we also wanted to get some big established names on the tour too"

Andy George: "The tour kicked off at Moda HQ (the Engine Shed in Lincoln) with Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs, Jakwob, Jaymo & Andy George, Tom Staar and the headliner to end all headliners - Fatboy Slim!"


Fatboy Slim at The Engine Shed

"It's a milestone for any club night when you've got Fatboy Slim playing for you. He's usually DJing to thousands of people at a festival, not 1500 people in a warehouse, so this is really exciting for everyone involved. He played alongside some of the coolest nu skool heads - Jakwob and TEED, so the contrast of musical styles over the night was amazing!"

"It was important for us to get a real mix of acts that represented the music we believe in from live bands like Shake Aletti and Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs, to boundary pushing DJ's like Surkin and Jack Beats"

Sounds like we're in for a big weekend then....
