Details are now in for the first BANG!BANG! party of the year!

Its @ ROOTYS at the custard Factory, fat new soundsystem, and holds just 200 people.
Tickets are £10 and go on sale March the 1st.

The Lineup:

DUKEDUMONT
LILLICA LIBERTINE
STDJ's
PETE DEATH
bang!bang!

DUKE DUMONT
signed to Tiga's label Turbo recordings and Dubsided, alongside Switch and Hervé. 2007 was a busy year for Duke, releasing his first array or records and touring Australia.
Between now and the 19th of April, Duke will be playing Razzmatazz in Barcelona, Marseille, all over England and Fabric just a week before.
He'll be offering us his original ghetto tinged take on fidget-house. Duke Dumont's most famous material, including a track commissioned by Atlantic Records, uses samples from 'Apache' and Debbie Deb to create a fresh and distinctive sound demonstrated on 'When I Hear Mu'Sic' and 'Lean n Bounce'.

LILLICA LIBERTINE : AKA 19 year old Nottingham native Laurence Matthew Blake is the most exciting young producer in England right now. Barely out of school and looking like Lil Wayne if he was in The Blood Brothers, Lillica has been heating up underground clubs up and down the country with the blogosphere crowning him the dazzling new prince of UK electro.
'Limited Edition' and 'Ultra 10' released on 500 clear vinyl by tapedeck's new label Meal Deal are two examples of what is getting everyone so excited.

STDJ's: Casper says they're a couple of fags, but they've been tearing up dancefloors all over London providing support for the likes of Erol Alkan, Switch, Surkin & Digitalism amongst many many others.

PETE DEATH: Local boy Pete from Death at the disco, a night which influenced most of Birminghams electro kids is on fire at the moment. One of his last sets had the JUSTICE boys up and D.A.N.C.I.N.G! Praise don't come much higher than that.

BANG!BANG!: Your hosts.... if you were at our NYE set at the Rainbow, then you know we aint fuckin about no more! OK, so we might enjoy the odd drink or 2 but we know how to shake your dancefloors down. Expect something special at this one.

SO PUT YOUR NAME DOWN ON THE LIST!

WASTED YOUTH - BANG!BANG!

Thanks to FUSED magazine for having us down at their lovely party at Epic Skate Park. COPTER were on kick-ass fine form as always and left everyone wanting more.

The Brahma was flowing freely and our set was really enjoyable (its quite strange DJ'ing from 6.30pm!!) However, as the time went by, and the beers went down, we got into our rythym and before we knew it, it was time to leave.

Big thanks to Dave FUSED for askin us to do it and we hope to work together again in the future.

Anyway, heres a little write up taken from the FUSED website, which hopefully will be in the mag too. If you see your face, then leave us a comment!

The Bang Bang Dj's supplied the music upstairs, the mighty Copter supplied the rawkus rock 'n' roll downstairs and Brahma supplied the free beer and a lovely night was had by all.

Thanks to all the artists that took part and the people that came along to enjoy the night.

The exhibition is on until mid April so go and take a look.
