Music
PUNKFUNKELECTROHOUSE - music from Germany, Belgium, Italy & France, and a sprinkling from London. On a more personal note, but still stuff I try to slip into the mix...Bowie, Grace Jones, Roxy Music, Madonna, James Broon, Tina & Ike, Clash, The Who, Public Enemy, The Specials,Led Zep, LCD SS, happy mondays, beach boys, rolling stones, orange juice, de la soul, 80's synth pop, kruder & dorfmeister, beastie boys, daft punk, leftfield, adam & the antz, queen, the Jam, The Kinks, Undertones, Bob Marley & another 20 years of musical education & experience....
Movies
too many to mention but here goes.. OK - Quadrophenia, Escape from NY, Metropolis, The Thing, Alien, The Wicker Man, One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest, Trainspotting, Goodfellas, Scarface, 2001:a space oddysey, The Castle, Apocalypse Now.....that kinda stuff & that's just the big ones I guess...? romance & cigarettes...loved that. Sin City was pretty cool, Spirited Away is ace, Dracula (gotta love Gary Oldman), True Romance....a total belter.
From last years EIFF - Hotel haribati, Sheitan, Palimpsest, Across 110th street. More recently..Miami Vice - pleasantly surprised! A Scanner Darkly - really good. Clerks 11 wiz rubbish though..not diggin that humour at all...
more - beowulf,
Television
no thanks...we say no. discovery & animal planet sometimes.
Books
good books I have read...on the road, the great gatsby, last night a DJ saved my life, bruce lee's biography-Fighting Spirit, shogun, trainspotting, one flew over the cuckoos nest, dracula, the chronicles of narnia (quite a session!), touching the void, Life of Pi, runaway ralph/the mouse & the motorcycle (check 'em out!), good novels really, some biog's (most recently Oliver Reed's).. on the motorcycle diaries at the mo'.... & also re-reading The Informers (quite harsh..).
About me: In the summer of '05 , friends & former DJ partners Felix Oram & Gary Mac decided that Edinburgh needed a new club. A space where it would be possible for music & life-loving people to go & dance to a particular brand of electronic music that didn't seem to be getting any play in Scotland's capital.
"we like to call it punk-funk electro-house"....
so, together with Cabaret Voltaire owner & manager, Sarah David, the boys decided that Wednesday nights down @ The Cab were to be the new weekly party-night for those who were serious about their music, but who also knew how to party (work on Thursday...? nah).
Our ongoing aim is to keep the music policy underground, new & interesting, & we've brought to the club only guest DJ's who are right for the music & the vibe. FC Kahuna, Felix Da Housecat, M.A.N.D.Y, Booka Shade , Black Strobe, Bryan Black from Xlovers & Motor, Geoffroy Dewandeler from MUGWUMP, Ewan Pearson, DJ T, Mr Andrew Weatherall, the deep & groovy Padded Cell, Damian Lazarus, Einzelkind,The Presets, Tommie Sunshine, Tomas Schumacher & the excellent Basti from Tiefschwarz.
Basically, expect quality of music & a very up-for-it, friendly crowd who know how to dance & get loose, away from the moody weekend crowds.
Come down & check it out for yourself......
