Leadmill Posted November 27, 2009 Author Share Posted November 27, 2009 There have been a few changes to the line up for the Rise event on December 27th, but we are delighted to have a bigger and better line up than before! Real Rise legends in the main room in the shape of Hacienda main man Dave Haslam and the fantastic Jon Dasilva. We are delighted to have the Drum and Bass legend LTJ Bukem playing the main like the old Waxploitation days when he was a resident. Joining LTJ in the back we are delighted to welcome influential Sheffield producer Rob Gordon. Rob cut his teeth in the local FON studio working with Mark Brydon as FON Force, and also engineering, editing and producing artists such as Krush, Age Of Chance and Pop Will Eat Itself. His time came in 1989 when he helped found Warp Records, through which he released his debut record (along with Shaun Maher and Winston Hazel) as Forgemasters. Through his A&R and production work, he influenced the sound of the label for its first few releases. He also collaborated with several artists, particularly on the Network label, to shape the "Bass and Bleep" sound that combined the techno sound of Detroit with electro and a new, uniquely British experimental minimalism. Bank Holiday Sunday - December 27th 2009 Rise Reunion 2009 - Sheffield Leadmill Dave Haslam JonDasilva + more TBC Room 2 - Funktion 1 Soundsystem confirmed LTJ Bukem & MC Conrad Rob Gordon (Trash & Ready) + more TBC Doors 22:30 till 4:00 Tickets £10 advance Tickets available from Leadmill Box Office / http://www.ticketweb.co.uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leadmill Posted December 9, 2009 Author Share Posted December 9, 2009 Despite recent comments that have been made by certain other smaller promoters in Sheffield, The Leadmill would like to make it clear that the Rise event taking place on December 27th is an authentic Rise event. These smaller promoters criticising the line up for not being fitting for such an event must be mistaken: Jon Da Silva has played the event many times in the mid-nineties, as has Dave Haslam. LTJ Bukem was a resident of the 2nd Room when it was called Waxploitation. It is a coup for The Leadmill to have an act like LTJ Bukem alongside local legend Robert Gordon (The original Forgemaster) playing a room of this size that we are very excited about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
