Asha Posted October 28, 2003 Share Posted October 28, 2003 Genesis Nightclub in Chesterfield is not well renown for doing anything special, in the past it's been a out of town club, which used to play commercial dance music, well I've banned Scooter and DJ sammy, So if you are into Funky House, Sheffields underground Speed Garage scene and serious Essential new dance music then come down on a Saturday and have a listen, the night is called Local Heros. As part of Local heros Iam looking for local DJ talent or Vocalists with their own material, you have got to be doing playing out new music, not DJ sammy, send me your demos to Mark Ashmore, Genesis Nightclub, Chatsworth road, Chesterfield, Derbyshire, I give everyone a listen, you never know next week you could be playing out, well not next week as we have Sheffield DJ Dave Stanton playing (1st NOV) and the folowing week we have female speed garage DJ Cherry from Chesterfield playing out (8th Nov) Spread the word, the musical revolution has begun.

tinajones Posted November 4, 2003 Share Posted November 4, 2003 can you offer me an description of the history of speed garage in relation to UK garage? i read that the dreem team started off playing speed garage then morphed into the UK garage scene. i quite like the UK sound and associated breaks, but missed out the speed g scene - only been exposed to it at niche a few times.

Jack Yerbody Posted November 5, 2003 Share Posted November 5, 2003 "Speed garage" was just a media label put on UK garage at a time when a few pop-ish tracks got quite broad crossover and chart appeal - RIPgroove by Double 99 et al. Check this link for a decentish history of garage http://www.epidemik.com/features/articles/ukgarage.htm Boo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fnkysknky Posted November 5, 2003 Share Posted November 5, 2003 It was meant as a joke It read like he was promoting Sheffield's scene as Chesterfield doesn't have one... How true that is I don't know, I try to avoid going out in Chesterfield tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
green Posted November 6, 2003 Share Posted November 6, 2003 the reflective label (reflex records in sheff) do a weekly speed garage night every friday at .zero. ive been two or three times and the place is packed to the rafters. if u go into reflex records they'll tell you all about it, they have some big stars on the scene signed to them aswell. well worth a try.
