Universal Vibes presents Kitch-en gallery live art jam:
Established in 2005 in the North East of England, Kitch-en is a Contemporary Urban Gallery specialising in selling limited edition prints, original works and vinyl toys by some of the best up and coming artists in the UK.The collaboration with Universal Vibes on Sunday 18th July will enable kitch-en gallery to showcase some of their most talented artists via an all day live art ‘battle’.

Kitch-en Gallery understands the need to mix art with other elements of contemporary urban culture and the need to move away from traditional gallery spaces. So we've teamed up to provide an eclectic funk laden sunshine music soundtrack to the live art pieces that will take shape and form thoughout the day...
DJ support comes from residents universal vibes' paddy freeform and the Itchysoul djs (birthday boy matt young and alex k) whose new ///shift record label has been picking up some big props, they will be special guests from Kitch-en Gallery Affilates, the Ghetto Method Collective..(Mudfoot Blapps and Notorious D.A.V.E)

A warehouse party in Shoreditch
After running around the clubs and bars of london for the last few years we thought it was about time we put our feet down and organised a good old fashioned warehouse party...and what a space we have found!

and for the music we bring you a selection of Universal Vibes artists and friends...
alongside label head Paddy Freeform, and ready to launch the next single on the label we bring you the 'strange worlds soundsystem' live, featuring Darko Viric on keys/synths/loops, Natasha Flame on vocals, and Stef le Francois on machine drum and synths...strange worlds will be bringing their studio to the stage to perform live their forthcoming single 'Broken' alongside new material.
DJ support will come from Universal Vibes' heads honcho Paddy Freeform, Strange Worlds' Darko Viric, Play Deep Records Spyda Brown alongside Ableton and Machine drum grooves of Stephane le Francois...
26 year old Zachary Spider Brown Smith AKA Spydabrown has been deejaying since he was 12. Vice President of Play Records inc. Play Digital

His clients include Deadmau5, Melleefresh, Billy Newton Davis, BSOD Scandalis and the Empire Crew, Dirty 30, Frankie Valentine, Danny Jay, Neon Stereo, Kaysh, and Per QX ,Trix,to name a few…
His new passion is using a video SL plug in for RANE Serrato which allows him to mix video and music at the same time providing a complete audio visual experience. He has recently relocated to London to pursue the development of Play Records’ UK and a new sub-label Play Deep imprint with a focus on all sounds techno ,minimal deep and funky and further promote Play Records and play digital in Europe

After moving to Canada, he spent some time perfecting his recording engineering skills, and is now an accomplished producer, with songs played world - wide and being featured on labels such as Compost, Sony, or BBE.
As a DJ, Stef has played in all the major Canadian cities, and various outdoor festivals. He was a resident at NASA in Toronto in the early 2000's, as well as a regular headliner at the Promise party. His occasional appearances in London, UK, have made a lasting impression, and created many remixing opportunities, leading to string of upcoming releases on UK label Stilnovo. A recent gig in Austin for the South by Southwest festival, reignited Stef's craving for playing good music, loud, in front of crowds...

Man Make Music DJs:
universal vibes presents:SOUNDS GOOD
Universal Vibes returns to the Lockside Lounge, our favourite Camden haunt for another freestyle excursion of eclectic beats and treats, sounds good?
For this event we are teaming up with East London party starters, Man Make Music who stormed it at one of our previous events....
Since late 2006 Man Make Music have cultivated their name as one the hottest up-and-coming party promo brands in London. After a series of road blocked events in London's East End (from Unit 7 to Corsica Studios), legendary illegal warehouse raves in Hackney Wick and the unique daytime Block Party in the middle of Shoreditch, it wasn't long before promoters from London's most stablished haunts were taking serious note of MMM's electric broad-spectrumed bass parties.
As DJs themselves, the MMM lads (Sketchy, Another Amit & Noel Mas) have previously supported acts like RPR Soundsystem, Clive Henry, and Sebo K to name a few - blending together bouncy techno with chunkier, wobblier 4/4 music to great effect. As promoters they've booked such notables as Mala (Digital Mystikz), Plastician, Nathan Fake, Justin Martin, Petter, MJ Cole and Radioclit to play in some of the most unique party spaces in London.
MMM has always kept an open mind when it comes to musical programming and feel proud to have showcased the best from a broad spectrum of bass heavy dance music genres, delivering quality, cutting-edge bookings that crowds go mad for.
also lining up for this are TACTiLE residents, Tomas and IKO. their TACTiLE parties in East London basements and South London boozers push a distinctive blend of the best elements of house, techno, dubstep and UK funky and have featured guests such as Cooly G, Panagea, Ben UFO and the Vangelis
and of course no universal vibes event would be complete without head honcho paddy freeform taking the controls, frequently described as one of 'London's hardest working DJs' His Universal Vibes compilation has been released to critical acclaim, awarded Compilation of the Month in DJ mag, label of the month in April's IDJ and picking up serious props across the board. Paddy has been tipped as 'one to watch' in 2009....

with special guest dj,all the way for nottingham via the worldwide awards, Red Rack 'em....
Nottingham DJ Danny Berman aka Red Rack'em is well known for his illicit hip hop and disco edits which have been well supported by the Unabombers, Nextmen, Carl Craig and Prins Thomas. He is also a respected radio broadcaster and his fortnightly Smugglers Inn podcasts (available at http://www.redrackem.com) are eagerly downloaded by leftfield beat heads from across the globe. His recent wonky disco/boogie/Detroit house output as Hot Coins has firmly eclipsed those heady edit days, with EPs on Tirk, Untracked and Society showcasing his production skills and receiving massive support on the disco and house scene. Gilles Peterson has been his biggest supporter, hammering not just Hot Coins tracks on Radio 1 (including his massively hyped remix of Joubert Singers 'Stand On The Word') but also previewing the exciting Marlinspike Detroit 2 step project on his Worldwide radio show. Gilles has described Danny as 'not being able to put a foot wrong right now' and recently commissioned a Red Rack'em guestmix for the Worldwide International show (which you can check here - http://www.giantstep.net/releases/2242 ) and also invited Danny to play at the 2009 Worldwide Awards where he played alongside Jazzanova and Laurent Garnier.
2009 promises to be a big year for Danny with the Hot Coins album on Tirk and plenty more singles ready to go across many genres. Expect to hear the finest hip-hop, disco, cosmic, elctro, punk funk, proper house, broken beat, jazz, funk and wonky beats.

Their unique blend of old disco favourite mixed into nu disco and disco re edits provide a great sound track to party until the early hours, these guys will get you dancing!

Universal Vibes is back on the second saturday of the month at The Prince, one of the leading lights in the thriving current Brixton nightlife scene.
This month we are teaming up with out friends at tactile to bring a techier,housier flavour to the Prince's Funktion 1 fuelled DancelfoorTACTiLE is a new night playing house and techno. Everything from minimal to deep to Detroit to dub. We also play dubstep and disco. We are holding our first party in conjunction with UNIVERSAL VIBES at The Prince in Brixton. We don't like overblown entrance fees, overpriced drinks and hassle when we go out. We think that going out should be about having fun and hearing great music. That's why we offer quality DJs over a good system in a relaxed venue, all night long.
On our first night we are bringing you Phonica's *Vangelis*, Universal Vibes' manager *Paddy Freeform* and Resident Advisor's *Ronan Fitzgerald*. Support will come from the TACTiLE residents, Pete, Iko and Tomas. We also like visuals, so *Sharp Sharp* will bring his projections to the party.
*Universal Vibes* is a label and online radio station with constantly updated content from Freerange, Compost, Buzzin’ Fly, Fabric and many more. The label is currently in full flow, with a string of highly acclaimed single releases and a label compilation planned for early 2009.
