The heavyweight selectors make their début appearance in Belfast at this year’s festival, bringing you bass-line pressure in Dub, Reggae & Dub-Step

Already touring the globe dropping their low end dub-plates from Rio to Malmo, Hong Kong to Helsinki, these boys are working hard spreading the love with dozens of releases & collaborations featuring eminent vocalists like Brother Culture, Daddy Freddie, Warrior Queen, Tippa Irie & Soom T and producers like the revered digital dub dynamo, Disrupt (JAHTARI).

The warmth and sub-bass rumble of the Homespun rig will be on hand to deliver the deep frequencies needed to wobble your nose and rumble your belly.

“Aside from numerous DJing spots earning them the title of Veteran Selectors, Mungo’s Hi-Fi have long been producing tracks for play on Jah Shaka’s mamoth rig, and have garnered support from a wide range of heads from the late great John Peel to Mr Scruff.” – Boomkat

Secret Wars Euro League: Dublin Vs Copenhagen

SECRET WARS EURO LEAGUE BEGINS feat. Guest Kaboogie DJ’s

Secret Wars began back in 2006, it was small, and intimate yet had the potential to be so much more. Years of hard work, dedication and a strong following has meant Secret Wars has pushed the boundaries and raised the bar for artists and promoters alike.

It’s all culminated to this, present day, present time…....... 16 European locations?The SECRET WARS EURO LEAGUE has finally arrived!

Boasting a range of cities including London, Lisbon, Berlin, Copenhagen, Dublin, Barcelona and many more proves that everyone wants a piece of this groundbreaking and award-winning event.

Copenhagen are coming to Dublin to battle our artists in our first competitive art battle. 3 artists against 3!! 90 minutes on the clock, black edding markers on the white wall. 2 judges vote and a crowd vote will determine the winner.

More importantly lets show the Danes what Dublin is all about and give them a night they will never forget. I hear they’re not gonna leave quietly, so come down and show your support. Our crew are packing skill so its gonna be a mighty fine battle. Dublin team is Mick Minogue, Frizelle and Redmonk.

Michael Forshaw - Live - 6th February

Earwiggle presents…

Saturday, February 6th, 2010
The Underground @ Kennedy’s, Westland Row, Dublin 2

Michael Forshaw [Live] (Chan ‘n’ Mikes - Blackpool)
DJ Mustard Gunn (Coin Operated - London)
Redmonk (!Kaboogie - Dublin)

Doors: 10.30pm
Admission: €10

After a memorable debut event at last October’s DEAF, we decided that we couldn’t just leave it there – and moving to the smaller, sweatier surroundings of The Underground @ Kennedy’s for our next gig, we welcome Michael Forshaw and DJ Mustard Gunn as our international guests on February 6th.

Michael Forshaw is a legend in his field. His label Chan ‘n’ Mikes has fashioned some of the craziest techno and electro of the last ten or so years - track and release titles like ‘I Love Horses’, ‘Cheerleaders’ or ‘Boyzone Make Me Wanna Smoke Crack’ have always demonstrated his humorous approach, but it’s the ruthless nature of his production that has set him apart. This is a long overdue return for Forshaw to play live in Dublin and a perfect way to kick off 2010 for us.

Making his Irish debut on the night is Coin Operated label head DJ Mustard Gunn. Coin Operated has been one of the best new labels of the last few years – showcasing a daring mix of UK bass styles from producers like Kanji Kinetic, The Squires Of Gothos, 3d!t, Spaceface and many others… with a friendly nod to the old skool. Mustard Gunn knows how to tear up the club and that’s exactly what he’s going to do when he gets here.

Completing the lineup is Redmonk, one of the craftiest DJs in the Dublin area, as well as one of the masterminds behind the !Kaboogie collective, who have recently been pushing some sick new slabs of black plastic by some of the city’s best and most depraved producers.

Doors to The Underground @ Kennedy’s are at 10.30pm, with admission being a cool €10.
