Dogmatic recordings present… NICE UP! a night of righteous party vibes NICE UP!
and be HAPPY MAX SEDGLEY 93 FEET EAST, FRIDAY 20th AUGUST, FREE B4 10PM
Another month passes and so again the NICE UP! crew roll into the East End of London with their merry band of funksters. Our last outing saw the incredibly diverse C-Side Trax boggle a few minds in the back room, with an impressive freestyle display from their MC (managing to rhyme random contests of a ladies handbag!) alongside some fantastic live showcases and magic tricks…guess you had to be there!

Joining resident DJ SHEPDOG this month is creator of the summers catchiest and biggest dance tune MAX SEDGELY. His single "HAPPY" crashed into the top thirty this month after being caned on the underground circuit for over a year. It first landed on our shores as an Italian import and after being charted by taste makers such as Gilles Peterson and Mr Scruff became one of the most sought after 12"s of recent times! Eventually picked up by Sunday Best records and remixed by Fatboy Slim and Spiritual South (whose mix was used by ITV for their Euro 2004 coverage) it can now be found floating about in the national charts. As a DJ, Max has received high acclaim for his eclectic and downright funky selection, winning over crowds throughout the country aswell as rocking dancefloors in Ibiza this summer.

Serving up the soul, funk, hip-hop and whatever-else-they-see-fit in the back room we have 2 of Londons music PR companies battling it out. In the red corner is Gareth Watkins (Zzonked) – also resident at the massive Twisted Love @ Neighbourhood, as well as nights at AKA and Market Place. In the blue corner is Ben Smith (Best Kept Secret) who can also be found spinning around the city at love.is.audio, A Love Supreme and the recent Version boat parties. Both have a love of all things soulful and funky so expect a selection of classics as well as upfront releases from their artist roster (this could get nasty!)

We also have the added feature of a Caribbean BBQ in the courtyard, serving up some sizzling Jerk Chicken as well as other tasty treats. All this….and this is the best bit….

IT’S FREE!!! if you get yourself down there before 10pm.
